As many in our church family know, I am enjoying watching my almost ten-year-old Joshua run Cross Country for Union Hill this fall. It brings back a lot of memories of my own experience as a runner and the many parallels to the journey of faith in Christ that can be found. Whether it is the initial investment, ongoing commitment, or nearing the finish line. All of it contributes to Leaving a Lasting Legacy. One of the things that I knew as a runner is that I needed to start fast. This could be equated to the initial excitement that comes with discovering the love of God and what it means to be in a relationship with Jesus. It is all “downhill” in

terms of energy and excitement. But, as one of my seminary professors used to say, we need to begin with the end in mind. The pace that someone may start with as a runner or in a relationship with God may not be one that can be sustained over the long haul. The question we must ask ourselves in any new venture then is, how will what I am doing now contribute to how I will finish? When Jesus invited his first few disciples into relationship with himself it was a radical commitment of following after him. The first disciples “started fast,” but Jesus was most concerned with building sustainable rhythms and a sustainable pace in his disciples that they could continue on after he was gone. So, if you are just starting out in your journey of faith, I want to encourage you to take joy in your first love relationship with Jesus, but consider what may be needed relationally or in terms of spiritual rhythms and practices in order to move into a sustainable pace of life and faith in Jesus. A second stage in a race or in our journey of faith is what I will call the “long middle.” This is the majority of our journey and the key here is to not allow ourselves to become isolated but finding running partners who will come alongside us in the form of a Small Group or Mentoring Relationship who will root us on, encourage us when we get tired and weary, or remind us of what the goal is. Few of can stay motivated in our journey with Jesus without such a means of support and encouragement. I remember that in the marathon that I ran in 2005 that another runner came up to me at about mile 8 and asked if he could run with me in order to find a mutually sustainable pace. That person stayed with me until mile 18. For roughly 10 miles we encouraged one another and matched stride for stride through the long middle of the race. As a result, I did not become tired and weary in the way I probably would have if I didn’t have another person to pace me. If you are going to hold steady or maintain momentum in your journey of faith I encourage you to find a small group or mentoring connection to encourage you along. Now at the age of 44 I am continuing to look for models, mentors or disciplers who can support my own journey of faith and service through the long middle. Finally, there are others who are being called to finish strong or “Finish Well” in their journey of faith. Many of you have been faithful in following Jesus over the long haul. You have invested yourself in others over your lifetime for Jesus’ sake. This may include your marriage, your kids or grandkids or other followers of Jesus. Unfortunately, this could be a time where you become weary in doing good. But while this may be a period of rest and reflection we also want to remain faithful, and finish strong in our earthly journey even as we anticipate the finish line. I remember my own mentality as a runner that I have tried to pass on to my son, that no matter how the race has gone or how challenging the course has been, I was determined to finish the race well, running my hardest at the end. If you are in that stage in your journey with Jesus, I encourage you to keep on communicating with God in prayer, to keep on investing in Christ-centered relationships, and prayerfully consider what part of yourself God is calling you to give in order to Leave a Lasting Legacy of Faith that will continue on long after you are gone.

With You on the Journey, Pastor Mike

Written by Karen Walden

Think about your favorite relationships. It hopefully gives you good feelings. What do you like about those relationships? Love? Communication? Trust? Loyalty? Joy? Kindness? Honesty? Care? So many wonderful qualities we get from our loved ones and, most likely, people feel the same about you. Sometimes it seems hard to get to know another person. By doing things together like working at the yard sale, helping out with the children, singing in the choir, or participating in a small group you are developing relationships with people and one day you realize you have a good friend.

As just one of the twelve Deacons in the church, I feel blessed because serving as a Deacon is another way to get to know you. It is also helps me see how much the Deacons care about the people of the church, really care. I love my church family. With all the people in church, there are many of you I do not know yet, although I am interested in meeting new faces and talking with you and hearing your stories. Know that your Deacons care when you need a helping hand, or prayer, or someone to talk to. I am also grateful for you, the church family, for helping to care for the people of the church either with financial blessings or by cooking a meal or giving comfort.

On September 13th the session of SPC assembled for its monthly meeting. Before the session meeting the session gathered for a time of focused prayer for the church.

We prayed prayers of thanksgiving for each of you and for all the works of ministry that are happening at Sierra Pres as God lavishes his loving grace upon us. We gave special thanks for the recent yard sale and all the hard work and devotion that went into this huge event. And we thanked the Lord for his blessing the event with so the monies raised for works of ministry and mercy in Nevada County.

We also prayed for God’s wisdom for us as a session as we meet to conduct his work through us

as leaders. We prayed for wisdom and guidance as we focus on the church budget for 2017 and for His blessing upon each leader and participant. We finally gave special thanks for the loving work of the diaconate and their faithful and diligent care for the people of Sierra Pres and beyond.

The formal session meeting began with reflecting on the calling of being an Elder. Considering

Jeremiah we considered the importance of our being faithful disciples as the foundation upon which we act as leaders and ache for the success of our church. We took time once again to review the session covenant that was established two years ago and discussed how we can build increasing trust, effectiveness, and unity as a session.

The session carefully reviewed the latest giving and budget information that was provided by

Elder Hock Tjoa and the finance team. We continue to seek God’s wisdom as we prepare to use most of our regular meeting time in October to set a working budget for 2017. Please pray with us for God’s provision through the peoples giving and for granted wisdom as we seek to glorify our God through our stewardship of his resources in the coming year.

As we reviewed each ministry area we gave special thanks for Sonshine Preschool as we ap-

proved its budget for the next year. The school is in very good financial condition and has grown in ministry in adding school hours, enrollment, and faithful ministry to the families of Sonshine. Thank you for praying for session and staff as they serve and pray for you. Will Frye Clerk of Session

Fall is here and at ankor we are looking forward to a great October! On Wednesday’s we meet in Hatcher Hall from 5:30 p.m. – 7:30 p.m. Our current teaching topic is ‘knowing why we believe the Bible is true’. This month our specific topics include ‘the Bible as the word of God’, ‘the Deity of God’ and ‘the Trinity’. Before digging deep into the lesson each week we enjoy fun and active games, a delicious dinner and a variety of worship experiences.

Wednesday October 16th falls on the school break week so we will depart from our regular schedule that night and have a one-of-a-kind event that night. On the 1st, 2nd and 4th Sunday’s of the month at 10:30 a.m. we start out in the Sanctuary for worship and then slip out quietly to go discuss and study that morning’s sermon topic as a small group. The 3rd Sunday of the month we stay in for the full worship service to participate with the larger church body. We also have an Outreach/Service Project coming up on Friday October 28th. The purpose of this off-church-campus event is to create a relaxed and welcoming environment to invite friends who may not otherwise feel comfortable coming to a church site. We will be partnering with local high schools as well as the Sole Hope ministry to cut out shoe patterns from denim jeans. These are then shipped to Uganda to be sewn into shoes for children there and soled with used motorbike tires. These protect the children’s feet from jiggers that otherwise infest their feet. We will have pizza for dinner and frequent door prizes awarded. This is a drop in event so youth can come and stay for as long as they are able. SAVE THE DATE: Sunday November 9th, Our youth Director/BBQ master Jeff will be firing up his new smoker for a pulled-pork fundraiser. We are raising money this year for our Winter and Spring Retreats, an inner-city mission trip to San Francisco and a week at Hume Lake camp next summer. Your prayer and financial support is always appreciated as we endeavor to share Jesus’ love with the youth of Nevada County! Submitted by: Karen Partch, Volunteer Youth Staff

WOMENS RETREAT 2016

The recent Women’s Retreat entitled “When Life Gives You Lemons” was full of precious fellowship time, rich discussions, lots of laughter, delightful crafts and opportunities for prayer, rest and rejuvenation under the pines at Camp Del Oro. Featured speakers included Dr. Melisa Agness and our own Gretchen Schomberg and Beth Griffin.

We were reminded that all things are in “God’s Timing” and that there is nothing the ‘world’ can throw at us that He hasn’t equipped us to endure. This is often difficult to keep in the forefront when we get caught up in worldly demands and expectations. Proverbs 19:21 tells us that "People may plan all kinds of things, but the Lord's will is going to be done." We are often impatient and forget to trust that there is a reason for all things that happen particularly during trying times. "You have sent troubles and suffering on me, but you will restore my strength; you will keep me from the grave. You will make me greater than ever; you will comfort me again" - Psalm 71:20-21. When it feels that life is giving you more than you can stand, remember to kneel.

YARDSALE 2016 Our 36th Annual Yard Sale was a major success thanks to the scores of volunteers who helped us with every phase– setup, sale, teardown. We are always amazed to watch a tent city emerge on our parking lot in a day, providing us with a place to both fellowship and work as we prepare to sell the enormous amount of donations we receive. Then this city disappears ever faster than it was built! We deeply appreciate everyone who faithfully works either on campus or behind the scenes to make this event possible. This year’s total sales were over $36, 000. A heartfelt “Thank You” to our anonymous angel who came forward to cover all the sale’s expenses and enable us to bless so many local organizations. We will gladly be giving the proceeds to A New Day Counseling Center, Christian Encounter Ministries, Living Well Medical Clinic, Hospitality House/Utah’s Place, Kare Crisis Nursery, Interfaith Food Minis-try, Emergency God’s House where we joyfully worship and thank Him for our abundant blessings. In His service, Gretchen Schomberg & Michele Hall

Gilbert Morris is a favorite. Darlene Moberg recently donated a wonderful little book called Lessons From a Sheep Dog by Phillip Kel-ler. I finished it a few days ago and found it to be wonderfully inspiring. I am following it up by a “Shepherd’s Look at the 23rd Psalm” by the same author. He relates his personal sheepherding experiences to our Great Shepherd and I am amazed how I find that I am much like a sheep desperately in need of my Shepherd. How wonderfully our Lord loves and cares for us. These are two small books that really are filled with great truths for our day to day lives. Lastly we welcome Rena Crist to our Library Team.
