Prayer is a direction of life, a focusing of one’s most
personal and deepest attention Godward. The purpose is
to love God and learn to know him so well that our wills,
our actions, will be more and more aligned with his, until
even our subconscious reactions and purposes will have
the mark of his love, his life, about them. Prayer is no
longer an “activity.” It becomes the continuing language
of that relationship God designed to fulfill a human life.

Soon summer will be upon us and lots of great activities will be going on
through our Church. VBS is coming up in June along with the trip to
T HE
Baltimore, the Youth Mission Trip in July and the Picnic in the Park and Day

The warm weather months are a great time to fellowship together through
worship, service or fun events. We are a “Full Service”
Church where we don’t slow down in the summer but
keep the same great schedule all year long. Now that we have air
conditioning our worship environment provides a more pleasant
atmosphere as well. So, get involved and join the good times here at St.
Thomas or wherever we are going!
“How good and pleasant it is when brothers live together in unity!” Psalm 133: 1
Rev. Bill Miller
. . . to Corrinne Wagner for serving as the St. Thomas Financial Secretary since 1993. The
Financial Secretary records individual giving to St. Thomas and provides an annual record of
those contributions. In the past, Corrinne’s father, Ralph Muthard, also served as Financial
Secretary. When Corrinne began, all records were kept on paper, but a few months later,
Ronald Schoener provided a computer for the church. Corrinne thanks her daughter, Michele
Davis, and Greg Fisher (Franklin and Irene Cocks’ son-in-law) for helping her learn to use the
computer.
Weekly Work: Each week, volunteer money counters open the offering envelopes and record
what was given by envelope number. [A future Words of Thanks article will feature our money
counters.] Corrinne double-checks the envelopes against the money counter records and
then posts the data into the computer. Power Church is the software used to record
contributions. Corrinne checks subtotals as she works and then checks the final totals for
Current, Benevolence, Building, and Special offerings. She also records Simply Giving figures
(from recurring electronic transfers used in lieu of church envelope giving) and other giving
figures. Corrinne appreciates most the days when the totals match on the first round and
they usually do. If not, she checks back until she finds the discrepancy and corrects the data
entered. Corrinne’s weekly work usually takes about 1½ hours, but for a big day like Easter,
more time is needed.
Other Tasks: Corrinne prints and mails contribution statements each year. She also orders
boxes of offering envelopes in August and assigns them to church members in November.
All of Corrinne’s work is done as a volunteer. She enjoys serving the Lord as the St. Thomas
Financial Secretary.
Thank you, Corrinne!

Spring in here. We have celebrated Easter. . .what a joyous time of remembering what Jesus
did for us so we can have peace in Heaven, for eternity. Palm Sunday saw lots of smiles on
the faces of the children as the Easter candy was handed out. We had a beautiful day for the
egg hunt. Many thanks to all who donated eggs, candy, and their time to put candy in the
egg and all those who helped with the egg hunt. Everyone seemed to have a great time.
Boyer’s helped with the egg hunt this year and their Easter rabbit was a big hit.
Thank you to all the teachers and helpers for your efforts in making your Sunday school a
very special place on Sunday mornings.
VBS is only a few weeks away and Brian and the helpers our putting all the pieces in place to
make it the very best VBS. We want to be Jesus’ ambassadors in Bernville and reach out to
all of God’s children with His good news. It takes a lot of people and time to make it
successful. If you have not yet committed to help, we can still use your help. There are plans
in the works for a float in the Bernville Memorial Day Parade. Walkers are invited to join. We
are working to have the sign across Rt. 183 replaced. That will give St. Thomas a great place
to promote VBS with a large banner. The sign will be 2’ wider than the old one and should
make it easier to read.
The special programs are in order for this year: Mother’s Day - The Amazing Maji (Rev.
Michael Reist), Father’s Day - A Great Bible Story Teller (Mary Boyer), Children’s Day Balloon Artist (Trist’n Shout), and Rally Day - Maranatha Production Drama. On these
special days we try to have programs that teach us about our Lord Jesus Christ from a
different perspective. It is challenging to have programs that reach out and touch all ages.
We repeat some programs because they were well done and worth having again. Your Sunday
school teachers and board members decided several years ago to do children’s programs on
just Christmas and Easter. That way the teachers will have more time to teach God’s word. I
am always thankful for your suggestions of things to have at St. Thomas on special Sundays.
My prayer for the special programs is that there will be someone that will be touched with the
hand of Jesus in a life changing way.
We have had some water problems in the Nursery Sunday school room. So it became a great
time to repaint the whole room with different colors. Check it out. . .they picked great colors!
We are thankful to the Guild for the shades in the chapel and the Sunday school room facing
south to help on those warm sunny mornings.
You have honored me by having me be the Sunday school superintendent for a lot of years.
This Fall my allotted term as Sunday school representative on Consistory is complete. My St.
Thomas faith family has been a true blessing for me. When there are things to get done and I
ask for help, you look at me with that look of what does he want now and then you pitch in
and help however you can and do it with a smile. It has been a great privilege to help build
up our Lord at St. Thomas working together with so many loving Christians of like mind.

Greetings from our small class. This year our class has been
small with 3 children or less most weeks. We were blessed to
have the Ark Builders (children under 4 years old and parents)
join our class for several weeks while their room was being
worked on. We were bursting at the seams for those few
weeks. There were lots of new faces and names to learn. One
of the parents came up to me after the first week and asked if I
know the names of all the children in their class. I had to say
no, but I did know the adults, and that helped. We had a fun time together. They learned a
few new songs, and I learned a few names. I also learned a lot by listening to the adult lesson
in their class. Everyone can learn something in Sunday School. The Bible lessons for the
children were about loving one another, showing God's love, and the death and resurrection
of Jesus. We hope we were able to show the Ark Builders God's love while they were visiting
us. You are welcome to join us again any time.

On April 22, we completed Ray Vander Laan’s Faith Lessons video
series, “There’s Hope in the Desert.” Thane LaFollette won our Ray
Vander Laan costume contest on March 4. Ask Thane to explain it
to you sometime. The previous VOICE entry told of the desert trees
being part of God’s unfolding plans for redemption. Next we traveled
over rocky paths in search of redeeming water. Isaiah, using desert
images of blossoming crocuses, an abundance of flowers, and
rushing streams (Isaiah 35:1-7), described God’s coming Shalom,
which is the restoration of harmony and peace.
The Bible tells us that God is a leader in our wanderings, shaping
new paths as we walk with Him. The desert is a teacher, and the 40
years the Jews spent in the desert were a time of molding. Like the
wandering Jews, we are led through deserts to avoid the distractions of our material world.
We, like sheep, fall prey to temptation when we do not listen to our shepherd. We are to
listen, and hear our Shepherd’s voice leading us over the stumbling blocks of temptation and
leading us on a straight and righteous path. Proverbs 4:10-13 beseeches us to listen, that we
will be kept safe.
The desert oasis is greened by a spring of living water. . .God. Revelation 7 informs us that
we will never be hungry or thirsty; our shepherd will lead us to life-giving water. As we drink
of Jesus’ life-giving water, the Holy Spirit enters us and quenches our spiritual thirst.
God asks us to trust Him; life is a walk; life is walking God’s path. God shapes new paths
and shapes us as we walk with Him. Psalm 81 teaches that our desert path’s rocks are where
we find God, and 1 Peter 2:25 says that “The Shepherd is the guardian of our souls.”
Shalom!

The Boy Scouts had a busy schedule helping beautify the community
of Bernville. They helped with the cleanup of Stanton Clay Park,
Umbenhauer Park, and the Bernville Pool. One of the scouts is
setting up an Eagle Scout project in cooperation with the Fire
Company to paint the fire hydrants.
They also helped work on the trail system around Blue Marsh as part
of Take Pride in Blue Marsh weekend. Many of the scouts are
working on their first aid and emergency preparedness merit badges.
And summer camp is just around the corner. There are 21 scouts
signed up to participate in camp this July.
We would like to thank you, the members of St. Thomas Church, for your continued support.
The chicken bbq, pretzel sales at Boyer's Market, and the aluminum can recycling drop off
sites would not be as successful without your continued help. We would especially like to
thank the leadership of the Church for allowing us to have our meetings here. With your
ongoing help, the scouts will be able to grow into productive young men of the community.
E VANGELISM
Our next meeting is May 16, at 8 p.m. Please join us as we begin planning for a new initiative
in the fall. We have willing hearts, but we need more hands to reach out to the community
and beyond in Jesus’ name.
“Evangelism is not a professional job for a few trained men,
but is instead the unrelenting responsibility
of every person who belongs to the company of Jesus.”

Is it Spring yet? With many weeks of cool and windy weather in April, we were not sure what
season it was.
We would like to acknowledge Millie Graeff for serving as treasurer of the Guild for 17 years.
Thank you Millie for a job well done.
On Sunday, March 25, the Guild handed out daffodils to everyone in church to benefit the
American Cancer Society.
We recently gave $2,000 to our current window repair project. Have you noticed the new
bulletin board in the library, the shades at the chapel windows and the blinds at the windows
in Beatrice Hall? These items were made possible because of our apple dumpling sale and
the Christmas bazaar. Thank you to all who helped make this possible.
At our April meeting, baby gifts were brought for Mary’s Shelter. These gifts were given in
connection with Mission Week. Thank you everyone.
Betsy Reifsnyder was in charge of our program for April. She showed slides of past Guild
events and the 2012 Sweetheart Banquet. It was enjoyed by everyone.
Pastor Bill will be in charge of our program for May. Come and hear what he has in store for
us.
Our meetings are always held on the last Tuesday of the month at 7:00 p.m. We welcome all

 Current goes to the budgeted (or current) expenses of the church.
 Benevolence is distributed for mission outreach by the
Missions Committee.
 Building is used for upkeep and maintenance of the

 Loose money in the offering plate is used for Current.
The following tips will help our St. Thomas money counters ensure that your giving is

 Please write the amounts you want given to each category on your weekly offering
envelopes. You can give to some or all categories as desired.
 Please use the adhesive tab on the envelopes to close it. No additional tape is

Thank you for your tithes and offerings to St. Thomas.
C ONSTANT AND U NCHANGING
Summer’s arrival feels positive to many people but may not be smooth for all. Families who
rely on regular school meals for their children must stretch grocery dollars further. Heat
poses risks for elderly people who lack air conditioning. Work can be difficult to find in the
summer months, and uncertainty looms for recent graduates. Meanwhile, concerns such as
wars, natural disasters and health problems don’t take a summer break.
St. Theresa of Avila (1515 - 1582) prayed, “May you be blessed forever, Lord,
for being constant and unchanging, amidst all the changes of the world.” Her
prayer is as appropriate today as nearly 500 years ago. When all around us is
unstable and unreliable, God’s love and faithfulness are constant and
trustworthy.

“Someday” is a snake whose tongue has mastered the talk of deception. “Someday,” it hisses,
“I’ll take her on that cruise. . .we’ll have time to sit and chat. . .”
But you know the truth before I even write it, don’t you? Someday never comes! Wise up!
Invest the time. Send the flowers. Write the letter. Make the apology. Take the trip.
Purchase the gift. Do it! The seized opportunity brings joy - the neglected one brings only
regret!
