Grace and Peace from Pastor Gary
Help is on the way! These words are always a welcome sound whenever we face a distressing situation – a medical emergency, car problems during a family vacation, a natural disaster, or struggles encountered on moving day. Knowing that help is on the way reduces our feelings of fear and anxiety.
Imagine the feelings of fear and anxiety experienced by Jesus’ disciples the night before His death on the Cross. He had assured them that He would be raised from the dead and would go to prepare a place for them “in my Father’s house.” Still, these promises did not give them peace or a confident hope. How on earth could they live without Jesus by their side?
Help is on the way, Jesus promised them and us. “I have said these things to you while I am still with you. But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you everything, and remind you of all that I have said to you. Peace I leave with you.” [John 14:25-27]
Help is here – this is what we celebrate always in the Church, and especially on the festival day of Pentecost! God sends the Holy Spirit into our lives as children of God in the waters of Holy Baptism, and the Holy Spirit remains our life-long Helper, Counselor, Teacher, and Guide.
Help is here, and we stand upon Jesus’ promises for the life and ministry of the Church. We believe, in the words of Luther’s Small Catechism, that the Holy Spirit “calls, gathers, enlightens, and sanctifies the whole Christian Church on earth and keeps it united with Jesus Christ.”
Whenever we face challenges as a Church or struggles in our personal life, be at peace, because Help is here! “May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.” [Romans 15:13]
In Christ’s love, Pastor Gary
PS – I wish to share much happy news regarding our family. Our daughter Valerie and her husband Nathan have been blessed with the birth of their second child, Sebastian Irenaeus Valle, on April 26 in Rapid City, SD. We will have a family gathering there in June to welcome him into the family and to celebrate Mary’s 60
th birthday. Mary and I will be
traveling soon to Mt. Pleasant, SC to visit our daughter Katherine and her family and celebrate Lydia’s baptism. A few days later, I will travel to Texas and assist our son David as he moves into our home for the summer. He will attend graduate school at Boston University beginning in September for the Master in Fine Arts program for screen writing. Emily will come later in June, and we will have a visit with Katherine’s kids in August. Last of all, our niece Beth is moving from Chicago to Nashville this month and has already requested help from Mary as she delivers twins in October. Be prepared for new stories and lovely pictures of our loved ones!

Adult Education Sunday School
Faith and Discovery: Your God Is Too
Small by J. B. Phillips. Phillips explains the trouble facing many of us today is we have not found a God big enough for our modern needs. The book explores the ways in which we can find a truly meaningful and constructive God, big enough to account for our life experiences. Coordinated by Mike Hamilton. (basement choir room).
Lectionary Bible Study: What is a
lectionary? A lectionary is a list of scripture readings assigned to be read on a particular day. This class will study and discuss the week’s readings used in Sunday worship. Led by Tom Duncan. (old narthex area)
Bible Studies for Life: Reclaiming the “C”
Word from Lutheran Voices. God is up to something! God is on a mission to save and bless the world, and God calls the church to be part of this mission. That means getting focused, setting people free, taking action, expecting surprises, and being hopeful. A church is the people-people who carry out God's mission in the world. Led by Gwen Dornbos. (office conference room)
Donuts: from Sermon on the Mount to a study
of the seven feasts of Israel, this class moves quickly through topics that deepen their knowledge of the Bible and its teachings. Led by Marlin & Denise Williamson. (SS hall room #8)

Shepherd Group Responses – Spring 2016
Numerous ideas were shared regarding the celebration of St. Mark’s 65th anniversary. This summary highlights those
ideas that were suggested by several groups: Audio-visual presentation that includes personal interviews and pictures
Dedicated wall space in narthex where people could display pictures and historic items
Celebratory meal on October 23 during Bishop Gordy’s visit
Create memorabilia – Martin Luther ceramic medallions, ornaments, t-shirts, bookmarks – and new “branding” featured on window stickers, banner, etc.
Personal remembrances and stories shared during potluck dinners [German and Scandi-navian food for one of these meals], community events, Mission Moments during worship
Music concert for the congregation and community in our sanctuary
Community event with church members and guest speakers presenting “St. Mark’s and Rocket City: Making History Together”
New church pictorial directory
Outdoor neighborhood event/open house during the summer
65th anniversary float in the Huntsville Christmas parade Listed below are the new ministry ideas that were discussed:
Bible studies offered: “off-site” in public places; on the campus of UAH; in the evening for adults
Intentional ministry for parents with small children
Support group for widowed and/or divorced persons
Outreach and support for Huntsville Hospital medical staff – prayer time in chapel and periodic mid-day services
Public event- beyond God’s Work, Our Hands Day- to help with community need
Volunteer Rally Day for promoting service within the congregation and community
City-wide worship service among all Lutheran churches for Reformation Sunday I am truly grateful for our Shepherd Group leaders and each member who participated in this new endeavor. I hope more and more people will see these gatherings as beneficial for building up the Body of Christ and binding us together so we can faithfully celebrate,
serve, and make disciples for Christ! In Christ’s love, Pastor Gary

St. Mark’s Faith & Fiction
Book Group
The Cold Dish by Craig Johnson will be our reading selection for Saturday, May 7. We will meet at 9:30AM in Room 8. Our book for June will be The Sound of Gravel by Ruth Wariner.
April 10th
The St. Mark’s Quilt Guild
will meet on Saturday, May 14th
from 10AM - 2PM in the Fellowship Hall.
Join in regardless of your experience! There are plenty of things to do: cutting fabric, sandwiching quilts, tying together, sewing squares, etc.
RELATIONAL EVANGELISM & CHRISTIAN HOSPITALITY
As Luther would say in the Small Catechism, “What does this mean?” “When does this happen?” I have found that church growth happens in Christ-centered, grace-filled, Spirit-led congregations as members understand and practice caring ways of inviting and welcoming people to worship. We often tell people about a favorite restaurant where “the service is good and the food is great.” So we can develop the ability to tell people about St. Mark’s with equal enthusiasm! We can also become more aware of making positive first impressions on worship visitors.
In order to “equip the saints for the work of ministry” [Ephesians 4:12], I will be offering several workshops on Relational Evangelism and Christian Hospitality during the summer. Each workshop covers the same material and will be offered from 10:00 – 10:30
a.m. on the following Sundays: June 5, 12, 26; July 3, 24, 31. You will be asked to register in advance so that I can prepare well for each workshop. Information will be provided during worship, beginning on Pentecost, May 15th.

Dear Pastor Gary and Members of St. Mark’s,
It is with great appreciation that I thank you for all your prayers, thoughts and many, many cards. I sin-cerely thank Pastor Gary for being with Harry during my surgery; his visits during my recovery; and the many prayers offered on my behalf. Also many thanks to Polly and Wayne Falkenberg and Gwen and Bob Dornbos who also stayed with Harry during my surgery until our children arrived from
out of town. Thank you to the Knit and Crochet group for the beautiful lap robe which is a comfort for my daily naps. I’m looking forward to a full recovery and to be back in your midst soon.
My deepest appreciation for all of your love and concern, Mary Wiley
