    THANKSGIVING DAY SERVICENovember 28

    9:00 a.m.

    Led by Rev. Dean DeFino

    Dear Members and Friends of Trinity U.M.C.:

    Thanksgiving is a time when we pause with family and friends to reflect on Godsblessing. As you think back over the past year, I am sure that you too have much forwhich to be grateful. We are indeed privileged to live in intimacy and fellowshipwith our Creator. The blessings that we experience come from the love and supportof family and friends. The sense of accomplishment that comes with our success,and the pleasures and benefits derived from hard work.

    Helen Steiner Rice says it well in the following poem:

    MAKE EVERY DAY THANKSGIVING

    Thank you, God, for everything

    the big things and the small,

    For every good gift comes from God

    the giver of them all,

    Too often we accept

    without any thanks or praise

    The gifts God sends as blessings

    each day in many ways,

    O, make us more aware, dear God,

    of little daily graces

    That come to us with sweet surprise

    from never-dreamed of places,And help us to remember

    that the key to life and living

    Is to make each prayer a prayer of thanks

    And every day Thanksgiving.

    From the staff here at Trinity and our families, we want you to know how gratefulwe are for your presence, prayers, support, and encouragement. Because of yourgraciousness and generosity, Trinity United Methodist Church is able to shareGods love with hundreds of people who enter its doors each week. Indeed we wishyou a warm and wonderful Thanksgiving.

    Grace and Peace,

    George R. Patterson, MDiv.Senior Pastor

    The fall season is in full swing and with it comes themany beautiful colors of fall leaves and foliage. What a glori-

    ous site this is when you look at the forest along the highwayas you travel. We have traveled along Route 70 heading toFrederick, Maryland to see our daughter and her family, and itis always beautiful to look off in the distance at the mountainsand see the hue of colors in the fall. God is wonderful in Hiscreations, and we get to enjoy his array of beautiful colorswith the changing of each season.

    WHOOPING COUGH (Pertussis)If you have been following the news, we have heard

    from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention thatWhooping Cough is becoming a critical problem in some

    states, and the local health departments and physicians areworking diligently to make sure everyone has been vaccinatedfor Pertussis or have received the full series of vaccinations. Iremember as a child (now that was a day or two ago) that wehad to get our DPT shots and all the boosters, but in the lastfew years parents became concerned about the contents of thevaccine and chose not to get their children vaccinated.

    Whooping cough is horrible for anyone who has hadit in the past or has contracted it recently and so easily pre-vented.

    What causes whooping cough?

    Whooping cough is caused by an infection with abacterium known as Bordetella pertussis. The bacteria at-taches to the lining of the airways in the upper respiratorysystem and releases toxins that lead to inflammation andswelling.

    Most people acquire the bacteria by breathing in thebacteria that are present in droplets released when an infectedperson coughs or sneezes. The infection is very contagiousand is often spread to infants by family members or caregiv-ers, who may be in the early stages of infection and not real-ize that they are suffering from whooping cough.

    What are risk factors for whooping cough?Whooping cough can infect anyone. Unimmunized orincompletely immunized young infants are particularly vul-nerable to the infection and its complications, which can in-clude pneumonia and seizures.

    Can whooping cough be prevented with a vaccine?Whooping cough commonly affects infants and

    young children but can be prevented by immunization withpertussis vaccine. Pertussis vaccine is most commonly givenin combination with the vaccines for diphtheria and tetanus.(Pertussis is the "P" in the DTaPcombination inoculation

    routinely given to children, and the "p" in the Tdap vaccadministered to adolescents and adults.) Since immunfrom the pertussis vaccine wears off with time, many teenaersand adults get whooping cough.

    For maximum protection against pertussis, childrneed five DTaP shots. The first three vaccinations are givat 2, 4 and 6 months of age. The fourth vaccination is givbetween 15 and 18 months of age, and a fifth is given whechild enters school, at 4-6 years of age. Preteens going to tdoctor for their regular checkup at 11 or 12 years of ashould get a dose of the Tdap booster, and adults who didget Tdap as a preteen or teen should get one dose of TdaThe easiest way for adults to ensure immunity is to get tTdap vaccine instead of their next regular tetanus boost(The Td shot is recommended every 10 years.)

    The vaccine has been deemed safe for pregnawomen. To protect their infants, most pregnant women wwere not previously vaccinated with Tdap should get odose of Tdap during the late second trimester or third trimter of pregnancy. If not administered during pregnanwomen should get the vaccine postpartum before leaving thospital or birthing center. Getting vaccinated with Tdapespecially important for mothers and families with new fants as well as all people caring for newborns. Whenwoman receives the Tdap vaccine during pregnancy, the atibodies she develops to the Bordetella pertussis bacteriuare transferred to the infant, providing some additional ptection to the infant before the baby can be fully vaccinated

    Reviewed by Jay W. Marks, MD on 4/23/20

    Who should get the vaccine if exposed?All close contacts younger than 7 years of age w

    have not completed their primary vaccinations (including DTaP to prevent pertussis) should completethis series wthe minimum time between shots.

    Close contacts younger than 7 years of age who hacompleted their primary series but have not receivedbooster of DTaP within three years of exposure should given the booster dose.

    Exposed adults should be vaccinated with Tdap.Anyone with whooping cough should be isolated

    five days after starting antibiotics or until three weeks afthe onset of the coughing spasms if the person has not ceived antibiotic treatment.Reviewed by David Perlstein, MD, MBA, FAAP on 8/5/20

    What are the symptoms of whooping cough?Symptoms of whooping coughtypically last 6 to

    weeks (but may last longer). In young children, three stagcan occur. Older children and adults don't always go throuthe same stages.First Stage:Symptoms like those of a cold begin and last for several dato 2 weeks. Symptoms usually include sneezing, a runnose, mild coughing, watery eyes, and sometimes a mild ver.

    An infected person is most contagious during this stage.

    Second Stage:The most serious symptoms occur during this

    phase and last about 2 to 4 weeks or longer. As coldsymptoms fade, the cough gets worse. A dry, hackingcough turns into bursts of uncontrollable, often violentcoughing that may make it temporarily impossible tobreathe. This may happen up to 30 times a day. The per-son may quickly inhale when trying to take a breaththrough airways narrowed by inflammation, which some-times creates a whooping noise.

    In babies, coughing spells:

    May be triggered by very slight stimulation, suchas taking in food or milk, sucking, exposure to asudden sound or light, or stretching;

    May cause symptoms of flushed cheeks, pale orbluish complexion from lack of oxygen, andbulging or watery eyes. A baby may also stick

    out his or her tongue, push the chest forward, orflail arms and legs in distress;

    May be frightening to watch, although most ba bies recover and regain control of their breathing

    on their own. Babies generally feel well betweencoughing spells but may become exhausted fromthe physical effort of coughing. It's also possiblethat your baby's breathing could stop for a shorttime during the coughing spells. This is calledapnea. May lead to hospitalization, especially ifthe baby is younger than 4 months of age.

    Third Stage:The final stage, lasting for a few weeks or

    months, is a gradual recovery period. Although the per-son gains strength and begins to feel better, the coughmay become louder and sound worse. Coughing spellsbecome less frequent, but may flare up again if a cold orother upper respiratory illness develops. This final stagemay last longer in people who were not given the whoop-ing cough (pertussis) vaccine.

    Complications, such as pneumonia or exertion-related injuries from coughing, such as a hernia, can de-velop from whooping cough. These types of health prob-

    lems pose the most serious risk to children younger than 4months and to adults ages 60 and older.

    How is whooping cough treated?Treatment Program: Antibiotics

    Antibiotics reduce the period of communicabilityand should be initiated as soon as possible and withinthree weeks of the onset of the cough. Patients are nolonger infectious after 5 days of appropriate antibiotictherapy. Antibiotics probably don't reduce cough dura-tion in most patients.

    Notes:* Early antibiotics reduce infectious period to 5

    days but are unlikely to alter the durationof cough.

    * There is currently insufficient clinical evidence torecommend the use of roxithromycin for the man

    agement of pertussis.* Resistance of Bordetella pertussis to macrolides

    has been reported rarely.* Penicillins and cephalosporins are not effective

    against Bordetella pertussis.* Respiratory co-infections may occur and may

    require modification of antibiotic therapy. Spu- tum culture results should be used to guide antibi otic choice.* The following drugs are often recommended for

    the first three weeks of symptoms: Azithromycin,C l a r i t h r o m y c i n , E r y t h r o m c i n , a n dTrimethoprim+Sulfamethoxazole. The dosagedepends on the age of the patient and the lengthof treatment depends on the seriousness of theinfection.

    The Centers For Disease Control and Preventionis strongly urging all physicians to support immunizationsfor all groups of people regardless of their age. Theystrongly recommend that all children receive all the re-quired immunizations in a timely manner.

    Hope you all enjoy the fall season and the changein the temperatures.

    Ask the Rev

    What is the Christian view on cremation?

    The Christian view on cremation is a frequently discussed issue. When visiting the cata-combs in Rome, one sees the care and concern the early Christians had in the burial oftheir dead. The care and interment of the body of the deceased of those early Christianswere considered a testimony of the promised resurrection of the dead. It also distin-guished a Christian burial from the Roman practice of public cremation of renowned mili-tary and political figures. The concern to preserve the testimony of the resurrection in aburial rather than cremation continues in the minds and practices of many Christians tothis day. Although Christianity places great importance on the body as a wonderful creation of God, there isno Scripture that deals with the subject of cremation. The Bible does state that to be absent from the body isto be present with the Lord, and thus we know that departed Christians are not asleep in their grave awaitingthe resurrection as is taught by some. They are in heaven enjoying the blessing of the Lord. We also knowthat many Christians have been lost at sea or consumed in fires. That has no bearing on their destiny. At theresurrection, God who knows the unique DNA of everyone is able to reconstruct and change our mortal bodiesto our eternal spiritual form and thus the issue of cremation for the Christian is a personal choice. My sister,the wife of a Church of God minister had her husband and son cremated and wants the same for her. OtherChristians want a burial. Both are acceptable in Christian theology.

    Stories from the BasementHelp and Outreach Point of Entry, Inc.

    ByDonna Clark RN, Director

    Many years ago we had an addiction counselor work with us on Saturdays when we offered a day drop-

    in center for the homeless. Ed was a very knowledgeable man who taught us a great deal about working withaddicted personalities. One of the lessons he gave us was about expectations. Expectations are what we bringto the table when we meet anyone. We own our expectations; they do not belong to the other person we aredealing with. When the other person does not live up to our expectations we are disappointed in them and of-ten feel like the other person has failed us. This leads to anger, frustration and sometimes rejection on our part.

    H.O.P.E., Inc. currently has two very addicted clients who are a part of our family. They have beenchronically addicted to alcohol for many years and although, sometimes difficult to deal with, we love them.Recently they both walked into the office together eliciting a groan on my part. I keep a list of Godly traitstaped to my desk, patience, kindness, gentleness, peaceable, etc. I looked down at the list and up at the ceiling

    and asked for all of these to be present in my demeanor that afternoon. One wanted to start to apply for disabil-ity but I suggested that he first get into mental health care and stay in it. I pointed out that his only disabilitywas his addiction and unless he was doing something about it he would not get disability. The other com-plained about his state of homelessness and I reminded him that ever since I knew him I had encouraged himto get mental health care. He laughed and said he didn't need it. He has had a severe head injury in the past andis in great need of mental health care but that is an argument I haven't won, yet.

    For years now I try not to place my expectations on the people we serve. We have seen it again andagain when a client gets sober, starts to get back into society and just when we think he has made the jump he"falls off the wagon" and slips back into his addictions. The feelings of failure and frustration become a part ofour reaction to this situation and we reject the person who has not met our expectations. It's hard to understand

    why the person went back to their drug ofchoice. No matter why it happened it is not ourjob as Christians to judge another; our job is tolove. Love unconditionally as Jesus did, as Godloves us. The addicted person will achieve so-briety when they are ready, not because of ourexpectations.

    As I watched these two lovable charac-ters climb the steps to leave I prayed that God

    would watch over them and protect them. Theyare God's children too.I Corinthians, 13... Love is patient; love is

    kind

    1-1/4 cups vegetable oil1 teaspoon vanilla extract1/4 cup orange juice2 cups chopped apple1 cup chopped walnuts1 cup flaked coconut

    BUTTERMILK SAUCE:1 cup sugar1/2 cup butter, cubed1/2 teaspoon baking soda1/2 cup buttermilk

    Whipped cream, optional

    Combine flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon;set aside. In a large bowl, beat eggs. Add sugar, oil, va-nilla and orange juice. On low speed, blend in flour mix-ture. Fold in apple, walnuts and coconut.

    Pour into a greased and floured 10-in. tube pan.Bake at 325 for 1-1/4 hours or until the cake tests done.Invert cake onto a large plate or platter. Deeply puncturethe top of the warm cake with a skewer or pick.

    In a small saucepan, bring all sauce ingredients toa boil, stirring frequently. Immediately spoon 1-1/4 cupsof sauce slowly over the top of the cake, then pour theremainder down the sides. Cool. Servewith whipped cream if desired. Yield: 16 servings.

    I made this cake and it is delicious. It will keep well if

    you refrigerate it, but let it warm up to room tempera-

    ture before serving. I put it in the microwave for about

    20 seconds and it is OH SO GOOD .
