“Put on love, which links

everything together in perfect harmony.” ~Colossians 3:14

August 2013 LINK: One of the best summer activities in our region is going huckleberry

pickin’. Huckleberries are the best berries that the northwest has to of-

fer. These little delicacies are worth their weight in gold. The hardest

part of this fun pastime, is actually keeping the berries and not eating

them as fast as they are picked. In our family, not only do we like to

pick them, but we like to enjoy them in ice cream form at Huckleberry

Heaven in Elk River. Enjoy that last bit of summer, fall will be here

sooner than later!

September 2013 LINK: Sitting around a meal, talking with others, and enjoying the great

outdoors are all things that bring a group of people together. Our

church has offered the great opportunity to enjoy each other's company

at campouts for the last two years. This picture was taken at last year’s

campout. Nothing like coffee and eggs (omelets in a bag) for breakfast

in the morning during camping. Join us for our annual All-Church

Campout September 13-15! More information on page six. See you

there! Photo taken by: Andrea Johnson

What I Did On My Summer Sabbatical I have enjoyed a wonderful summer of study, reflection, rest and renewal, and I

would like to share with you just a brief overview of my activities. I had three goals for my

sabbatical: to engage in academic study in areas of personal interest, to undertake biblical

study which will inform our fall sermon series, and to complete a practical ministry project.

On the academic side, I read, studied, wrote and attended classes at Regent Graduate

School of Theology (in Vancouver, B.C.) on the theology of Saint Augustine and the litera-

ture of J.R.R. Tolkien. Saint Augustine (354-430) is most well-known for his spiritual

autobiography Confessions. In this work I focused on the themes of friendship and grief

and the purpose of human life. J.R.R. Tolkien (1892 – 1973) is the author of The Hobbit

and The Lord of the Rings. With Tolkien I enjoyed reflecting on our journey through life:

“It’s a dangerous business,” Bilbo Baggins declares, “going out of your door. You step into

the Road, and if you don’t keep your feet, there is no knowing where you might be swept

off to.”

Biblically, I focused on the many ways the New Testament uses the concepts of

farming and gardening when describing how we are called to live the Christian life. Jesus’

teaching includes a sower and grain seeds, wheat and weeds, mustard seeds and vineyards,

vines and branches. In similar fashion the apostle Paul speaks of wild olive shoots being

grafted onto the cultivated olive tree, reaping what we sow, and the fruit of the Spirit.

These biblical themes will form the basis of our fall sermon series beginning September 29:

“What’s growing in your garden?”

I serve on the committee of our Presbytery which guides and oversees those in the

process of becoming ordained as pastors in our denomination. The committee lacks a com-

prehensive manual of policies and practices, so as my practical ministry project for the sum-

mer I volunteered to produce one. I have presented my draft to the committee and we will

be fine-tuning it this fall.

I also had time to enjoy my relationship with Lauri and to visit family on both sides.

Lauri’s family mostly live in Washington and we had a wonderful week with them on

Whidbey Island and in Darrington. We also spent some time in Colorado with my father

and my siblings where he has spent the past three months either in the hospital or in care

facilities. He has a life threatening disease and we are grateful for the time we have been

able to be with him.

Lastly, let me thank Pastor Josh, the

rest of our church staff, and the Trustees and

the Board for their leadership this summer. I

was confident that I was leaving the church in

good hands, and I was not disappointed!

Thank you for your prayers for me while on

sabbatical leave. I have missed you, my

church family, and I look forward to being re-

united.

Yours in Christ,

Pastor Steve

WEDNESDAY

The Well for September God invites us into a new way of living that is larger than ourselves. It is a movement, not an institution: a people, not a place to go. It is service and sacrifice, not self and security. It is not what you say; it is what you do. It is loving God and loving others.

Join us at the well, starting September 11 at 6:15pm.

We will be kicking off the new series Church for the Rest of Us. Come and enjoy coffee, cookies

and conversation.

The Parables of Jesus Class led by Pastor Steve Wilbraham; 10am in the

Administration Basement Room

Jesus often taught using parables which are

stories that convey important spiritual truth.

Many of Jesus’ parables refer to simple

everyday things, such as a woman baking

bread, a man knocking on his neighbor’s door

at night, or the aftermath of a roadside

robbery; yet they deal with the message of

the gospel such as the growth of the Kingdom

of God, the importance of prayer, and the

meaning of love. Join Pastor Steve

Wilbraham as together we read and discuss

these amazing teachings of Jesus.

God's New Society: A study of Ephesians Class led by Steve Taulbee; 10am in the Chapel (off of Fellowship Hall)

alienation and strife.

Equipped for Every Good Work Class led by Pastor Josh Bruns; 10am

will spend a number of weeks together

for the purpose of helping believers

identify and utilize their Spiritual Gifts.

STEWARDSHIP! Welcome back after a long hot summer! The Stewardship group is planning our

Autumn Campaign. Kelly Paynter has found an excellent book for children on

“Giving, Saving, Spending” which we will explore with the Children’s Ministry. We

also hope you keep us in mind if your Small Group has a request for any financial re-

sources. We would love to have an expert member from our church or stewardship

team come to your small group for a single session to help teach and inform you on fi-

nancial questions and issues.

There is a really good resource online for financial planning forms, to help or-

ganize your information. The website is: www.presbyterianfoundation.org Click on

Financial Planning. The forms I thought were helpful were: Personal Record Book,

Guild to a Christian Will, and Estate Planning Worksheet. If you click on Resources

on the blue bar across the top of the page and then click on Financial Resource Center

you can look at the forms that are most appropri-

ate for your age group: 20-30, 30-50, 50-70,

70+.

Please call or email me or Kathy Johnson

(in the church office) to request a class for your

small group. Vicky Boubel 509-243-4424 or

[email protected].

Thank you for your faithful giving during

the summer vacation months. If your giving

took a vacation too, please remember your

pledge and our church budget!

The beginning fly fishing class made a camp trip up the

Lochsa River July 19-21. This gave everyone a chance

to enjoy the wonderful scenery of northern Idaho and fish

for native cutthroat trout on a blue ribbon class stream. It

was a hot weekend but pleasant under the big fir trees at

the campground. We fished a couple of holes together

Saturday morning with everyone working on casting and

hooking fish. By the afternoon I think everyone had

caught at least one fish on a dry fly. That evening we en-

joyed stories around campfire, s’mores, and a great dutch

oven dessert prepared by Joline Moore. Those camping

included Steve & Joline Moore, Gary & Beth Chase, Larry and Tina Lantz, David Kugler, Jim,

Gabe and Eli Cach, Mike Holder, and Jim and Becky Schroeder. It was tough to leave the

beautiful surroundings and head home Sunday. We had a great time and hopefully will plan

one more trip before the weather gets too cold.

Our goal is to be able to stock the Sharing Room with donations of new or gently used

items from the congregation. We will be collecting items throughout the year starting with

the list below and then asking for specific items as needs arise.

Choir Song Birds: Our traditional chancel choir will begin rehearsing on Wednesday,

September 4th at 7:00 pm downstairs in the choir room. If

you are interested in singing with our choir this year, please

contact Beth Katzenberger at the church. Our practices are

on Wednesday evenings, from 7:00 pm-8:30 pm and

Sunday mornings at 10:00 am in the sanctuary, prior to the

11:00 am traditional service. We hope to see some new faces

and hear new voices as we start another years journey in

music ministry.

Worship Team: Our 8:30 contemporary worship team is in need of a few more

instrumentalists and voices as well. Practices vary, and we are look-

ing not only for musicians, but also people with fresh, new ideas for

worship and music leadership. Contact Beth if you are interested or

curious about being a part of this ministry.

Bell Choir: Fall rehearsals will be on Thursdays, from 6:00-7:30 pm in the Admin

Building basement, starting September 5th. Please note the

change in day and time.

We’d love to have more people share in our ministry and

fall is a great time for new people to join our choir. You don’t

need to know how to ring bells—we’ll be happy to teach you!

You can’t read music? No excuse, we can help with that, too.

All you need is a desire to have fun, a willingness to learn, a

commitment to come to rehearsals, and a sense of rhythm (if

listening to lively music makes you feel like drumming on a

table or stomping your feet, you’ve probably got it). If you’re

interested or want to know more, please call Greg Thompson

(758-2622).

During the summer, Gary Gibler, Janet Pinson, Micki Mennet-Martin, and Greg

Thompson from our bell choir attended the National Seminar of the Handbell

Musicians of America in Portland. The seminar lasted four days and offered a huge

variety of classes to help us expand our skills. We also got to listen to some out-

standing bell choirs. A Japanese choir named Kiriku played over five octaves of bells

and chimes with only 6-8 ringers (to

put this in perspective, our choir of

11+ ringers plays three octaves). The

Hong Kong Youth Handbell Ensemble,

comprised entirely of kids between the

ages of 12 and 16, played from

memory music that ranged from

classical to Lady Gaga! We also

watched a couple from Portland’s Bells

of the Cascades dance a tango while

ringing bells! Needless to say, we

returned home awestruck, inspired,

and excited to try out what we learned!

Has your home seen an excessive amount of weed growth

this summer? Well, we are experiencing the same prob-

lem at our church. It has become difficult for our custo-

dian, Dick, to keep up this summer, with his recovery

from knee surgery. If you have a little extra time during

the week, and enjoy gardening, please think about stop-

ping by at your convenience to pull a few weeds and pro-

vide a little TLC for our grounds. Whether you have 10
