Rev. Valerie J. Melvin, Associate Regional Minister

144-years and still serving

February 24, 2015 Dear Disciples Women: I greet you at the close of the second month of a New Year with great expectations for Wom-en’s Ministries! Please receive this update as our endeavor to be helpful as you vision and plan next steps for your ministry projects.

Our 2015 NC DWM Theme: "Hope and Joy provides Strength for the Journey" Scriptures (use one or all): Nehemiah 8:10-NIV Nehemiah said, “Go and enjoy choice food and sweet drinks, and

send some to those who have nothing prepared. This day is holy to our Lord. Do not grieve, for the joy of the Lord is your strength.”

Psalms 28:6-7 NIV Praise be to the Lord, for he has heard my cry for mercy. 7The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and he helps me. My heart leaps for joy,

and with my song I praise him. Isaiah 12:2-3 NIV Surely God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid.

The Lord, the Lord himself, is my strength and my defensea; he has become my salvation.” 3With joy you will draw water from the wells of salvation.

Theme Summary: Here in NC, we (the NC DWM/CWF cabinet) are still trying to traverse the impact of churches leaving regional fellowship (and some still contemplating leaving), as well as, prayerfully attempting to encourage those affected by the floating toxins of negativity centered around Resolution #1327, which was adopted during the 2013 General Assembly in Florida:

Resolution GA-1327, “Becoming a People of Grace and Welcome to All” – The Gen-eral Assembly calls upon the Church to recognize itself as striving to become a peo-ple of grace and welcome to all God’s children though differing in sexual orientation or sexual identity, affirming that neither are grounds for exclusion from fellowship or service within the church, and calling upon all expressions of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), as a people of grace and welcome, to acknowledge their sup-port for the welcome of and hospitality to all.

Needless to say, our hearts have been heavy and on some days sad, because we are keenly aware that

the dissolution of a relationship feels like a death and once the decision was made by our sister church-

es to leave, there was a tearing. The kind of tearing we experience when a family member dies. Each of

these churches has lost members as a result of their decision and tension is quite high. Hope in God,

people, and community has been challenged.

Page 3: DWM Winter Update (2.9.2015)

However, in a conversation with women from a particular church in discernment, the feeling of being torn gave way to a glimmer of restored hope! In the midst of the conversation, one of the sisters stated that she would still be attending all NC DWM/CWF events. She asked if it was okay. Yes, was the answer!!! All of the sisters agreed that they still wanted fellowship. One of them even said, more than ever, we need this bond with our sisters across the region! This group of committed women had made the decision that no matter what their church decided (and they love and are committed to their church), they did not want to lose the fellowship of the sisterhood that they had known for so many years. And we were asked to keep them on the mailing and email list so they could prepare to attend our annual functions. Hope and Joy flood-ed our souls! In that moment, the sense of loss we had been feeling was diminished and the strength for Women's work was renewed! Many women in our region have experienced some type of loss and the accompanying despair, so the NC DWM/CWF cabinet would like to spend the entire year finding out the many ways that Hope and Joy give us Strength for our daily Journey, and how we pass these experiences on to others. There are moments in this update that share how women have been discovering Hope and Joy, don’t forget to send us yours as well. Blessings~ Rev. Valerie J. Melvin Associate Regional Minister

SOUTHWOOD MEMORIAL CHRISTIAN CHURCH, KINSTON, NC “The Southwood Sisters...Eyes Wide Open”

At Southwood, females of all ages embrace the five tenets of DWM/CWF:

Study, Worship, Outreach, Service, and Fellowship by making them-

selves available to meet the needs of their community. Whether robing a

Timothy for a new pastorate, providing Samaritan’s Purse boxes (70+), or

quilting for the Harvest Festival; whether participating in Vacation Bible

School, a clean-up day for Southwood elementary school, leading a chil-

dren’s worship moment, or giving praise to God by dedicating their Blessing

Box donations, the Disciples women of Southwood strive to follow our CWF

prayer: “Open our eyes to the needs of the world and fill our hearts with concern for

all people. Guide us that we may truly serve You through Jesus Christ, our Lord.” We

celebrate you Southwood sisters, for showing us the way to embrace the

fullness of being Disciples women; by spreading the love Christ has shown

to you! Submitted by Mary Evans, Vice President-elect, NC DWM Cabinet

First Christian Church, Reidsville-Still T.E.L.L.-ing It!

One of First Christian DWM’s goals is to reach youth and young adults. To that end, a wonderful intergenerational “Cooking & Etiquette Class” was recently held. To watch ado-lescents and teenagers learning their way around a kitchen, engaging Emily Post’s rules for table setting, and having per-sonal makeovers, while learning good grooming was more than fun, it was ministry at it’s finest. The event produced a climate for bonding among di-verse age groups, just as we learned from the T.E.L.L. Project (Tangible Expressions of the Lord’s Love). “This work was done to

create a sense of belonging for these young women who have often taken

less interest in women's ministries than women in their forties and older.

These acts of service were shared as a way of showing God's love in a tan-

gible way while providing opportunities for women across generations to

begin conversations that might lead to new relationships” —Rev. Dr. Pat Donahoo, Executive Director, ODW. While these adolescents and teenagers are a few years from adulthood, intergenerational bonding impacts their total image of church, not just women’s ministry. We will keep T.E.L.L.-ing and showing our young ladies...We Love Them! Trustee-elect Tamar Lipscomb, President

Here are some pictures of what is going on in the Albemarle dis-trict. The first picture (left) is a post card from our International Sister Tammy in China from Nanjing, wishing everyone sincere blessings and warm greetings in this season. The picture to the right is from First Christian Church, Washington, who provided cookies for the Christmas Village Toy Store. The goal was to pro-vide a hand-up instead of a hand-out. They also provided toys at discount prices so family's could get more for their money. We have photos from First Christian Church, Washington CWF general meeting with a focus on “heritage” by Mrs. Elizabeth Latham. First Christian Church, Bath, was hard at work preparing for their Christmas Bazaar, which is their big fundraiser. The bazaar included soup and sand-

wiches, crafts, homemade jellies, desserts, and a room full of books for sale. The funds support community charities. And finally, I was honored to lead Lisa Belue, NC Woman-to-Woman delegate to France/Rome 2014, in her Commissioning ceremony. We have had a good Fall/Winter, now on to the Spring!!!

News from Christina Small and the Albemarle District…Sweets and more Sweets!

Minister John Richardson, Jeannine Richardson, Penny Ziemer, and Carey

sion trip in Las Mercedes, Nicaragua. Thank you for serving beyond our borders!

Disciples Women’s

Involvement at GA

Blankets/sleepingmats

for the homeless.

Disciples Women and Disciples Youth are joining

forces to create blanket/sleeping mats for

the homeless out of those plastic bags that keep

multiplying in your cabinet.

Visit this page and watch the video to learn

more about creating and crocheting with

PLARN (plastic yarn)

Start saving those grocery bags and larger

retail shopping bags. All colors are welcomed.

It takes 500 to 700 bags to crochet one mat

and a lot of time!

Make your balls of plarn. Either bring with you

to GA or send them with a friend or ship to

Disciples Women, 1099 N Meridian, Suite 700,

Indianapolis, IN 46204, and we will take them

with us. They will be needed so people can

start crocheting the first day.

Check your stash of crochet hooks. Do you

have multiples of P or Q or 10 which you do

not need? We can put them to use.

We also will need scissors to use at the cutting

station in the mission area.

Disciples Women and Peace

Cranes

The Disciples Women’s booth in the GA Exhibit

Hall will be the site of a 6-foot tall tower filled with

multi-colored hand-folded peace cranes. Each

crane will have a hand-written prayer written by a

fellow Disciple and friends. This project is taking

place all year ~ wherever Disciples women are

gathered. But there will be room for more. You are

invited to fold or write to add your peace crane

prayer to the voices of your sisters across the

land. Learn more about the story of the peace

crane and how you can participate alone, in a

group, and at General Assembly.

Breaking the Chains: ...Link by Link

The International Disciple Women’s Minis-

tries Executive Committee struggled,

prayed, consulted with you and discussed

among ourselves what our next social ac-

tion would be for 2014 through 2018. We

soon realized we have barely touched the

tip of the iceberg where human trafficking is concerned.

Women’s groups around the country feel they are just getting started working with this huge

social action emphasis. As we traveled around the country conducting workshops, leading re-

treats, and talking to you, overwhelmingly we heard you saying “we want to continue working

with human trafficking”. The Disciples Women’s Leadership Council (formerly Staff Wom-

en’s Fellowship) also voted to continue working with human trafficking.

It is with great hope we go into the next quadrennium with Breaking the Chains of Human

Trafficking: Link by Link as our social action emphasis.

We want to focus on three areas of human trafficking, three links of the chain:

Link 1. Sex Trafficking: our focus is on women, men, boys and especially our young girls

as young as 9 years of age, who are being targeted by traffickers every day.

Link 2. Labor Trafficking/Immigration: with this our focus is on the labor trafficking

that is at epic proportions and is closely tied to the immigration issues in this country.

Link 3. Demand: our focus here is to decrease demand. If there were no demand for sex

and labor services there would be no trafficking. Decrease demand and we decrease

Trafficking.

This web site was developed to give you some more tools to help you and your group to get

started or to continue your work on the social action emphasis. The information is not all inclu-

sive, and it is a work in progress. As we go along we will add more information.

For each Link we have included information, resources, links and suggested activities for each

area. We hope these pages are useful for you and we encourage your feedback. May God

Bless you as you work to Break the Chains of Human Trafficking: Link by Link.

Listening to God by Practicing the Presence Through Prayer

Have you considered that the essence of God resides within

those of us that proclaim that Jesus is our Lord and Savior? The

gift of the Holy Spirit is the essence of God that allows one to have

faith. The Spirit empowers Christians to follow Christ’s teachings

and to obey the Word of God. The Spirit longingly awaits our re-

sponse to God’s calling in our lives.

“So we know and believe the love God has for us. God is

love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God abides in

him” 1 John 4:16.

Do you desire a closer relationship with the Lord? He desires you! In order to draw closer to God, one

must spend time with the Lord. You ask, “But, what can I do to accomplish a deeper abiding presence with the

Lord?” The answer is prayer! My sisters, in Christ, you simply pray. In prayer, one calls upon the Lord and He

responds. When you call out His name, He is with you.

“For the eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous, and his ears are open to their prayer” 1 Peter 3:12.

Nicholas Herman was a simple man who became a lay brother in 1666 in the Discalced Carmelite order in

Paris, France. He was known as Brother Lawrence. He labored in the order’s kitchen doing menial chores. He

considered himself a servant to the servants of God. He dedicated his life to God and lived every moment in the

presence of the Lord. He accomplished this by his prayers, which he prayed as he went about the daily chores of

maintaining the kitchen for the benefit of others. He developed the skill of blending his daily work with his pray-

ers.

Ladies, we understand kitchen chores! We labor often to produce meals for families and friends.

Everyday we are faced with dirty dishes; however, if we approach our chores as Brother Lawrence did, which is

remaining in the Lord’s presence while we cook and clean, we will be blessed. Yes, the Lord is in our kitchens!

Begin each day in praise of the Lord. Greet him in the morning with thanks for the opportunity to

serve him while we serve others. Before you rest and sleep, at the close of the day, pray to the Lord with a thank-

ful heart. As your prayer time grows and deepens you will begin to hear His voice. You will begin to experience

more joy and peace. The Lord is with us, and He is waiting for us to call upon

him. Do you hear him calling?

“But I pray to You, Lord, for the time of Your favor. God, in Your

great kindness answer me with Your constant help” Psalm 69:14.

Dear NC Disciples Women:

We are delighted to share with you the 2015 Woman-to-Woman Scholarship Application, along with two Recommendation

Forms. If you have an interest in being the North Carolina Woman-to-Woman representative to ISRAEL/PALESTINE in the early fall of

this year, please fill out the appropriate forms and return them to the Regional Office no later than February 25th so that we might select

the NC delegate and forward our recommendation to Indianapolis by March 15th. A member of the regional Woman-to-Woman commit-

tee or a previous Woman-to-Woman delegate is available to talk with each applicant personally to insure understanding of the covenant

agreement among Disciples Women in regards to international travels.

To complete the application process, please give one of the Recommendation Forms to your current minister and one to a col-

league. Advise them to return the form promptly. February 25th is the deadline. The number of women allowed on the trip abroad is usual-

ly limited, so the sooner we receive your application and recommendations, the sooner we can choose a representative and pass that name

on to the Office of Disciples Women in Indianapolis.

The approximate cost for the trip is $4,000.00 (not including personal airfare to/from city of departure). Your NC DWM/CWF

works to fund one-half of the cost. The applicant chosen is responsible for providing additional trip fees. We encourage you to ask your

church and your women’s organization to help with financing. However, please do not allow funding or the lack thereof to stop you from

applying. Some Woman-to-Woman delegates in the past have not had the money for such a trip, but through the kindness of others, God

made the way possible for them to travel. Go ahead and apply, you might end up with two stories to tell; 1) about the amazing benevolence

of God and, 2) about how trust and faith are key ingredients for a miracle.

After the trip, you will be asked to fulfill your part of the Woman-to-Woman covenant agreement, which is to prepare and present

a program to churches in the Region of North Carolina. These presentations will begin April of the year following your travels. This is tradi-

tionally when the DWM/CWF study material will include the country you visited as its mission emphasis. We will publish your logistical

information throughout the region and the DWM/CWF’s will contact you to arrange a time for a presentation. We highly encourage the

churches to provide you with a place to stay if an overnight stay is necessary, and pay your mileage at the CPI approved rate. When hono-

rariums are given, they are remitted to the Regional office to replenish the Woman-to-Woman travel fund which will offer another woman

an opportunity such as yours.

According to our former Woman-to-Woman representatives, experiencing Christianity in another culture is a life-changing experi-

ence. Please give this your prayerful consideration.

Application Timeline from the Office of Disciples Women:

March 15 - Application is due.

April 1 - Notice of Acceptance to participants and regional staff.

May 1 - Deposit of $600 and 2 copies of pages 1 & 2 of Passport due.

June 1 – 1/3 of balance of the registration fee is due and deposit is non-refundable.

Cancellations after this point are subject to airfare and hotel cancellation penalties.

July 15 – 1/2 of remaining balance of the registration fee is due.

August 15 – the balance of the registration fee is due.

**Due to the necessity of spending funds well before journey begins,

the balance must be paid by August 15 or we will need to remove you from the list of participants.**

Blessings~

The Blessing Box and Bag...they still Matter!

Women who use a Blessing Box tend to see God’s abundance and blessing more than scarcity and hardship. Come, join us.

For 60 years, the women of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) have had a special way to express their gratitude to God for the blessings they have received – the Blessing Box. The Blessing Box was created in 1953, the result of a dream of the women who founded Christian Women’s Fellowship. Jessie Trout, who was CWF’s co-founder and first executive secretary, developed the idea as an over – and – above way to help fund the wid-er mission of the church. Since that time, Blessing Boxes have been kept in the homes and offices of women across the church to enable them to express their gratitude for everyday blessings by giving to others. In 2013, the Blessing Bag was introduced as part of this practice.

Thanks is given for a sunny day, a birth, a reconciling experience, a welcome phone call, a child’s smile, a beautiful snow fall, a flower in full bloom, relief from pain, a good book, a safe journey, and many other things. It is a way of saying “Thank you God, for your world and especially for people.

For those who participate, it is a spiritual discipline even more than a financial one. It helps keep a focus on gratitude to God and on the responsibility to share blessings with others. The amount put in may be a dime, a quarter or more. The amount is not nearly as im-portant as the discipline of regularly remembering God’s goodness through the acts of dropping in coins and praying prayers of thanksgiving.

Blessing Box: The cost is $7.50 for a package of 10 boxes (S&H $2)

or $60 for a package of 100 (S&H $10). Blessing Bag:

The cost is $15 for 5 bags (S&H $2) or $250 for 100 (S&H $10)

On the following pages, you will find the 2014 Blessing Box report for those DWM/CWF’s whose contributions were sent to the Regional Office. If you notice missing contributions, there is a strong possibility that you sent your contribution to the OGMP-Treasury Ser-vices in Indianapolis. While this channel for giving is fine, it means that your contribution

might not show up on in the Regional Office records for months.
