Days of Resurrection As Christians, we believe that the road to new life passes through a neighborhood called Death to the Old Life. Rev. Mary Lindberg. One reality we hold in common is that one day our physical bodies will cease to function. We call that death What is special about our Christian faith is the promise that death is not the end. We shall all be resurrected. We will have new life. This promise is found in scripture and in creed: In life, in death, and life beyond death, God is with us. We are not alone. [A New Creed, United Church of Canada] But wait, theres more as the TV commercial goes. We forget that we can receive more than one resurrection. That sounds great, so why doesnt everyone want to have multiple resurrections? Because, as Rev. Lindberg says in the words above, The road to new life passes through a neighborhood called Death to the Old Life. And death does not come easy to us, whether were talking physical, emotional or spiritual. Death can be a pretty rough trip. Its a trip we would rather put off. We would rather cling to familiar ways of living with their well-worn habits, traditions and pitfalls. There are many kinds of death. Some are easier than others. Graduation means death to years of schooling. Marriage means death to singleness. Public service means death of privacy. In that sense, retirement sounds relatively easy. Death to having to get up at 6:00AM every morning and commute to work? That doesnt sound so bad. Death to late night meetings? Death to working weekends? Bring it on! I can do this! But then, there are those other, more difficult aspects of dying associated with the retirement of a pastor. I shall very much miss the greetings, the hugs, the familiar structure of litanies and worship. I shall miss learning with and from you during Christian education classes, and the easy bantering and exchanges of news about family, pets and life. I shall miss looking up at Tabitha, the stained glass window closest to the chancel on the lectern side of the sanctuary. But wait, theres more there will be new life beyond June 30th, my last Sunday with you. Linda and I are looking forward to hosting three of our grandchildren, taking them to Williamsburg and Jamestown, to Washington, DC, and canoeing down the James River. Weve always wanted to go to New York to see the city dressed up for Christmas, so were making plans to go there in November. And theres the simple enjoyment of being home with family on Christmas Eve for the first time in over 20-years. So, it will be with tears in our eyes, but a sense of adventure in our hearts, that we will depart, praying for new life for you and new life for us in the weeks and years ahead, but always giving thanks to God for granting us these ten wonderful years serving with you here at St. Johns. Blessings be upon you all on your journey to new life,

St. Johns United Church of Christ

Transition Times Reflection, Celebration, Hope

St. Johns is entering a time of transition the retirement of our pastor and the beginning of an interim ministry. This is a time of mixed emotion for Pastor Jon and for the congregation. It is an emotional time, both for the sadness of wishing good friends fare thee well and for the joy of launching him into new adventures, fun, and relaxation. It is a time to reflect, to see who we are as a congregation, to appreciate each other, and to look toward the future with hope. We have reason to celebrate! During the week-end of June 8th and 9th there will be a Saturday evening party with food and fun and a Sunday morning worship service to commemorate and reflect on Pastor Jons time with us. On June 30, Pastor Jon returns the symbols of the pastoral office to the congregation during a special worship service. A reception will be held afterwards hosted by The Fellowship. We have good reason to hope for the future. The Interim Search Committee is in the process of interviewing candidates to be considered for Interim Pastor. The names of candidates were given to us by our Conference Minister for the Potomac Association, Rev. Kwame Osei Reed. All are available starting in July. After due consideration and prayer, one candidate will be selected by the search committee and presented to the Church Council for a vote and for financial and logistical consideration. It is expected that an Interim Pastor will serve for one to two years, helping us discern our direction for the new long term pastor. A search committee for the seated pastor will be appointed by the Church Council, soon after the interim pastor arrives. It is an exciting time! Heres what you can do! Celebrate the ministry of Rev. Heaslet! Prepare to work with a new leader and more closely with each other. Support the work of the search committees who will be doing their utmost to select a pastor that can minister to everyone at St. Johns.

Congregational Meeting
The semi-annual meeting of the congregation will be held on Sunday, May 5th during the worship service. The primary purpose of the meeting is the election of church officers. Please review the nominating committee recommendations and brief bios of each candidate in this newsletter. As a regular meeting of the congregation, any business may be raised. If you wish to introduce any business, please contact Teresa Jolles, Church Council President, before the meeting.

Celebrating Mothers by Helping Mothers in St. Johns Mourns with friends in Need Haiti
Our annual Mothers Day offering this year will benefit the YWCA Womens Advocacy Program, which provides crisis intervention, safe housing, counseling, and legal and employment assistance for women and their children affected by domestic and sexual violence. The program recently has added an empowerment group for survivors of childhood sexual abuse. In addition, the YWCA runs a childcare program for low income children In Richmond. Mothers Day gifts should be either placed in a labeled offering envelope or include the notation Mothers Day offering on the check memo line. Please make all checks out to St. Johns UCC; the church will issue a single check to the YWCA. Demetress Rudward Villier, the 12 year old son of Bishop Patrick Villier and Rev. Francoise Villier, leaders of CONASPEH (Jeanette Salleys missionsponsor), was kidnapped and murdered, in the last week of March after unsuccessful negotiations with the captors. Previously, the Villiers also lost their foster child in the earthquake that occurred in 2010. Jeanette emailed to say that she is ok and that they are taking extra safety precautions, including a temporary suspension of mission groups.

Acts Offering Exceeds Our Goal

Because of St. Johns extravagant generosity, the Easter offering for Area Congregations Together in Service (ACTS) has exceeding our goal of $2400. St. Johns has enabled ACTS to continue to preemptively tackle homelessness, sparing our neighbors from greater spiritual and financial hardships that come with the instability of an apartment without electricity, a job with no way to get there or of caring for your family without a home. Thank you for generously supporting ACTS as they assist an anticipated 336 homes in avoiding such burdens this year.

Monthly Contributions to William Byrd

Dont forget that on the third Sunday of each month, we receive contributions of non-perishable food items for the William Byrd Food Bank. Ask for a shopping bag with a shopping list attached from a member of the Welcome Team when you come to worship, and then bring your offering on the third Sunday of each month.
