Not everyone has a supportive workplace, an encouraging school, a loving family, or even just simply a stable environment in which to pursue opportunities. While I do not think or feel that our country is crumbling around us and we are facing Armageddon, I do know that many people have been left behind because of their race, their gender, their socio-economic status, and/or their sexual preference (just to name a few). Whereas I was always taught that a person could pull himself/herself up by the bootstraps, what I have learned is that particular sentiment only works if one has boots in the first place. We have been journeying through the Gospel of Luke this church year. One of the distinct characteristics of Luke is the idea of God turning the world upside down. We hear it in Mary’s Magnificat when she proclaims that God has scattered the proud, brought down the powerful, lifted-up the lowly, filled the hungry, and sent the rich away empty. We hear it in the sermon on the plain: Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God. Blessed are you who are hungry now, for you will be filled. Blessed are you who weep now, for you will laugh. Blessed are you when people hate you, and when they exclude you, revile you, and defame you on account of the Son of Man. Rejoice in that day and leap for you, for surely your reward is great in heaven; for that is what their ancestors did to the prophets. But woe to you who are rich, for you have received your consolation. Woe to you who are full now, for you will be hungry. Woe to you who are laughing now, for you will mourn and weep. Woe to you when all speak well of you, for that is what their ancestors did to the false prophets. (Luke 6:20-26) These words should make us squirm because they are out of line with just about everything we hear about value and success in the world. They hit us hard because, were we to be truly honest with ourselves, the words of blessing seem far from us whereas the words of woe seem directly aimed at us. Our lives, our reality as defined by this world, do not work in Jesus’ definition. Jesus does not stop with the blessings and woes. He goes on in the sixth chapter to redefine the community of God, to make us aware of what life and reality in God’s kingdom is truly like. The simple explanation is that this life and reality that Jesus defines for us are based on love. God’s community has no boundaries, for we are to refuse to treat others as enemies. God’s community is to act without expecting anything in return. God’s community is not to judge or condemn. God’s community is a place of forgiveness. In other words, we are being called back to a life, back to a reality that is defined by the One who is salvation. We are being called to be a place that strives not to leave anyone behind, a place that provides the boots and helps to tug on the straps. We are being called to be agents of change in a world that is fighting against lasting change. We do this by using our voices, our power, our advantages to build relationships with those who are not in the same place we are, listening so that when we act we are not acting as “benefactors” but as friends. It is not simple; it is not easy; but it is faithful to the gospel that is our life and reality as the church. In Christ, Pastor Jill The Followers’ Footsteps Page 4 PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE: News and Events Last week I traveled to North Dakota to attend the funeral of my cousin, Marvin Schnaidt, who passed away on Friday, July 22, at the age of 86. He was a generous, Christian man always ready to lend a hand to someone in need or to his church, Prince of Peace in Beulah. On the way there I stayed on the interstates so as to make the family and community gathering the day before the funeral. On the way back I joined route 1804 that generally follows the Lewis and Clark Expedition outward course along the Missouri River in 1804. It is a beautiful drive running from Mandan, North Dakota, to Mobridge, South Dakota, slightly over 100 miles, and continues, with some interruptions, to Pierre, South Dakota. It is hilly country that often gives one a gorgeous view of the Missouri River and when high on a hill, the road snaking through the fields. The farmers were active, taking down some crops and getting ready for the next thing to ripen. This appears to be a good year for the farmers – the corn was tall and the crops all looked dense, well-nourished, and very green with the exception of those ready for harvest. How much we benefit from God’s generosity! Roger Wieting and the Property Team, with help from Lee Bodendieck, have asked a second firm for a bid on the air conditioning system replacement. We are hoping that bid comes in shortly so we can select a contractor and move ahead. The Narthex Renovation Team has been busy getting prices and consolidating the congregation survey taken a few weeks ago. Robb Steele will be presenting their findings and conclusions at the upcoming August Council Meeting. God Bless, Loran Schnaidt The Followers’ Footsteps How we … GROW Nurturing, teaching, and encouraging each other through learning and fellowship to build a strong and vital community of believers. Many Thanks to the host of VBS volunteers who gave of their time and talents this past week at Barnyard Roundup. We had a great time learning that Jesus gathers us together now and forever! We had 70 eager and excited children, including our Learning Center. Thanks, again, to our 27 dedicated volunteers who helped make VBS a fun and meaningful experience for the children. Thanks also to those who fulfilled our wish list of materials and those who gave monetary donations. It takes the whole church to provide a successful VBS experience!

Happy August, The Learning Center welcomes another exciting school year in the month of August. A lot of hard work has been put forth by the entire staff, in organizing and getting the classrooms ready for the year ahead. Changes have also been made to improve the quality of the children’s learning experience. Each classroom has some new equipment, such as manipulative toys, dramatic play, furniture, and rugs. All of the classes will be using “My Father’s World” curriculum. This is a multisensory curriculum that encompasses all learning styles and all subject areas. The pre-kindergarten class will especially benefit from this curriculum, in that the curriculum covers all subject areas and has a phonics program that promotes reading. We are happy to welcome several new children who have joined the Learning Center family. We are thankful that they have decided to join us in play, prayer, and exploring. As we begin the new academic year, we welcome Teresa Johnson to the staff. Miss Teresa has over 19 years experience in daycare and will begin as a teacher assistant. Ms. Pat will be replacing Ms. Cathy in the cafeteria who has decided to move on. The children at the Learning Center are very important to us and our goal is to make changes that will provide enhanced spiritual growth, cognitive and physical development, and the best learning experience. May God’s blessing be with you this month and always!

STHS BOOK CLUB Book Club will not meet during the months of July and August. We will resume meeting on Monday, Sept. 26 at 7 PM in the Youth Room. All are welcome for informal discussion. Enjoy the following titles selected for summer reading. The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah. Fiction. 2015. Character growth and development are a strength of this World War II-set novel. Sisters Vianne and Isabelle Mauriac are driven apart by unhealed childhood wounds and clashing personalities. When Isabelle is kicked out of boarding school for the umpteenth time for "rebellious" behavior, her embittered veteran father, in the midst of drowning his own battle scars in bourbon, sends the adolescent to her elder sister's house. Meanwhile, Vianne attempts to find salvation from her past by marrying her teenage sweetheart and relocating to the French countryside where she delights in her garden and her school-age daughter. As Hitler's forces invade, both sisters face challenging choices that will show where their loyalties lie. Readers who enjoy stories with ethical dilemmas and character-driven narratives will enjoy this novel full of emotion and heart.--Library Journal. The Girls of Atomic City: The Untold Story of the Women Who Helped Win World War II by Denise Kiernan. 2013. Atomic-bomb history includes works about the communities of workers attached to the main installations where the first nuclear weapon was built. Kiernan’s contribution covers Oak Ridge, Tennessee, site of enormous factories built to separate uranium isotopes. A type of oral history, Kiernan’s account derives from her intensive interviews with 10 women who, in their youth, labored in a range of occupations at Oak Ridge, from janitor to machine operator to secretary to engineer. With surrounding scaffolding of the scientific fundamentals and the 1942–45 technical development of the bomb, the narrative runs as a collection of individuals’ life stories that recall circumstances of recruitment and the spartan conditions at Oak Ridge, on and off the job. Some commonalities of experience include the secrecy in which the women worked and the discrimination they endured (racial segregation in the case of the janitor; sexism in the cases of white women workers). Kiernan snugly fits original research into the creation story of Oak Ridge and should engage readers interested in both women’s history and the background of the atomic bomb.--Booklist. The Short and Tragic Life of Robert Peace: A Brilliant Young Man Who Left Newark for the Ivy League by Jeff Hobbs. 2014. A heartfelt, and riveting biography of the short life of a talented young African-American man who escapes the slums of Newark for Yale University only to succumb to the dangers of the streets— and of one’s own nature—when he returns home.--barnesandnoble.com Page 10 The Followers’ Footsteps How we … GROW Nurturing, teaching, and encouraging each other through learning and fellowship to build a strong and vital community of believers.

Every day when we are done we have “Lutheran Hour,” a chance to relax and reflect on the day.

Fire Safety and Storm Emergencies Every area has its potential hazards and all households need a plan to ensure that everyone stays safe if disaster strikes. The specifics will vary by where you live and which hazards you’re most likely to face but the basics are the same everywhere. As people age, their needs and their capabilities change, so in preparing for a disaster, it’s important to think differently than you might have at earlier ages. Four Essential Steps 1. Know Your Hazards – Visit your local health department’s website to see what the potential hazards are in your community. 2. Create a Physical Safety Plan – In case you need to evacuate, have a plan in place for where you and your family members will meet and make sure that everyone in the household knows exactly where this place is located. Always keep at least a half tank of gas in your car and follow any evacuation routes that have been established. Other emergencies may require you to “shelter-in-place,” which means to take immediate shelter wherever you are—at home, work, or in between. The safest place to do that may depend on the type of disaster; in a tornado, for example, the best spot is the lowest place possible away from windows. Visit www.ready.gov/shelter for specific tips in different locations. 3. Communications Plan - Your family may not be together when disaster strikes, so plan how you will contact one another. During a disaster, it may be easier to make long-distance calls than it is to make local ones. You and your family members should each know the designated non-local contact for your family and have that phone number programmed into your phones as ICE (In Case of Emergency). Consider signing up for text messages or emails to let you know about emergencies in your community through your local Office of Emergency Management (FEMA). 4. The Emergency Kit – Every household should have a disaster supply kit that has the basic items you may need during an emergency. Source: Ready.gov; Berkeleywellnessalerts.com; CDC; FEMA Don’t Fall – Be Safe Rushing is a major cause of falls. To help avoid taking a misstep, paint wooden or concrete steps with a strip of contrasting color on the edge of each step or on the top and bottom steps. Even in an emergency, don’t rush going up or down stairs. Homecare currently serves 17 families and employs 19 caregivers. This summer we had two people move into nursing homes. The transfer from independent care to nursing is almost always due to a fall or series of falls. Often the fall causes more confusion to the person than body injury. We pray for our families and wish everyone a safe last month of summer. Enjoy the rest of the summer!
