Karen Kramp Honored In AHF Parade
Points to Ponder
If all the world is a stage, where is the audience sitting?
Can vegetarians eat animal crackers?
If a turtle doesn’t have a shell, is he homeless or naked?
What was the best thing before sliced bread?
Riding in the After Harvest Parade this year was at least one member of our St. Joseph’s Church Community. Back in February, at the town’s annual Rotary Valentine’s Banquet, Karen Kramp, was honored with the 2016 Distinguished Citizen Award for Ellinwood.
Even though Karen believes that she was undeserving of this award, she admitted that she always tries to help if she sees something that needs to be done.
She is a member of the Hospital Auxiliary and says, “We serve a fall luncheon every year to help raise money for various projects at the hospital.” Besides being very active in community activities, Karen is also quite involved in St. Joseph’s Church.
For the past few years, Karen has been a member of Altar Society, a church sacristan and a church greeter. She sells grocery certificates for St. Joseph School, has counted collections the past 30 years, and is also on hand to help with the Altar
Society Quilt Raffle each year.Karen and Angie Hammeke, along with
two other teams, are responsible for serving funeral dinners at our parish.
Probably one of the things Karen most enjoys is helping at the Food Bank and delivering Meals on Wheels. She says, “Delivering Meals on Wheels is truly a blessing for shut-ins. It keeps them in their own home longer.”
It was an honor well deserved and we congratulate you for your contribution, both for our community and for our church.

Kyle and Christy
The Basilica of St. Fidelis in Victoria, Kansas, was the scene of the marriage of Kyle Nemnich and Christy Studer, on June 4th. Father John Schmeidler officiated at the double ring ceremony at 2:00p.m.
Kyle is the son of Diane and Ed Nemnich of our parish, and Christy’s parents are Kenny and Kelly Studer of Goodland, Kansas. Christy’s Grandmother is Barb Neitzel of Manhattan.
Lisa Nemnich, sister of Kyle, was a bridesmaid in the wedding.
The couple met during their days at Fort Hays State University, where Christy’s older sister, Alicia, introduced them.
Kyle is a graduate of St. Joseph Catholic School, Ellinwood High School, and Fort Hays State, with a degree in Business Management.
Christy attended Goodland Elementary School and High School, and graduated from Fort Hays State with an Early Childhood Development degree.
“Fol lowi ng the wedd i ng,” Kyle commented, “we honeymooned in Antigua located in the West Indies of the Caribbean. While on the island we enjoyed deep sea fishing for barracuda and Wahoo, also shopping and touring around the island.”

Kyle Nemnich and Christy Studer Marry in June
The Pope’s universal intention for August is that sports may be an opportunity for friendly encounters between peoples and may contribute to peace in the world. For Evangelization, that Christians may live the Gospel, giving witness to faith, honesty, and love of neighbor.
Celebration at Sts. Peter and PaulOn June 29th, the Heritage Association
hosted a celebration at the Church, north of Ellinwood. Mass began at 10 a.m. and a catered meal followed. D of I members were invited guests.
Kids today don’t know how easy they have it. When I was young I had to walk nine feet through the shag carpet to change the TV channel.
RCIA in SeptemberDo you have a friend or a relative who
may be in need of a church home? RCIA will begin again in September, and this would be a good time for each of us to do some reflecting and praying about whom the Lord may be calling through us. What does it mean to be a Christian, if we do nothing to help spread the faith?
When I was a child I thought nap time was punishment. Now it’s like a mini vacation.
I may not be that funny or athletic or good looking or smart or talented . .Geez, I forgot where I was going with this.
Scrip ProfitSt. Joseph School thanks you for
supporting the school through the scrip program. For the year ending June 30, the profit was $16,679.99. Last year it was $15,911.81.
Hugh Prather in his book “Notes to Myself” says, “Now that I know I’m no wiser than anyone else, does this wisdom make me wiser?”
Food Bank NeedsPlease support the food bank when
you can. Your donations are making an immediate difference to someone. Items most needed are: peas, cream corn, carrots, potatoes, tomato sauce, pears, gravy, peanut butter, jelly, pickles, macaroni and cheese, toilet paper, paper towels, soap, toothpaste, razors, tissues, deodorant, cake mix, pudding, sugar, flour and cooking oil.

Christy is in the process of opening a day-care in Great Bend, called Building Blocks Day-care”.
Kyle and Christy enjoy fishing at the family pond and going to the lake. At present they are busy doing small house renovation projects at their new home.
St. Joseph’s community congratulates Kyle and Christy on their recent marriage.
Alan and Ashley Bayer, of our parish, brought their daughter, Adelyn, to St. Joseph Church on Saturday, June 25th, for her baptism. Father Terrance Klein officiated. Adelyn was born on June 30, 2015, and is the first child in the Bayer family.
Adelyn was baptized in a white dress, made by her grandmother, Kim Bayer, from her wedding dress, and which was also worn by Adelyn’s cousin, Jocelyn.
Sara Mannel, Alan’s sister, of Wichita, is Adelyn’s Godmother. Ashley’s brother, Tanner Lucas, of Garden City, is the Godfather.
Adelyn’s Grandparents are Paul and Kim Bayer of Garden City, parents of Alan, and Randy and Darlene Lucas of Satanta, parents of Ashley.
Daddy Alan works for KMW in Sterling, and Mom Ashley works for Superior Essex in Hoisington.
Congratulations to Adelyn and her parents from your community family at St. Joseph’s Church.

On June 15th, David Lloyd, 56, died at his home in Ellinwood. He was born November 20, 1959, to Les and Alma Jenisch Lloyd.
A lifetime resident of Ellinwood, David graduated from EHS in 1978, going on to attend the Law Enforcement Academy at Dodge City.
He served 18 years on the Ellinwood Police Force, following in the footsteps of his Dad, who was Ellinwood’s Police Chief in the 60’s and 70’s. During this time David was on the force and worked as a Captain and fill-in police chief.
Lloyd was a member of the Kansas Municipal Energy Agency, the Kansas Power Pool Board of Directors and the Power Supply Committee for Kansas KPP.
He was a longtime City Employee, working for the city for 37 years. In an article in the Leader, a good friend, Chris Komarek, said he was conscientious about his job, worried about almost everything, and had a great sense of humor.
Lloyd liked working on small engines. In high school he started his own small engine repair business. He also loved motorcycles and in his younger days could be seen riding on the streets of Ellinwood.
He married Dana Fischer on August 29th, 1992. They made their home in Ellinwood. His wife, Dana is a nurse.
David Lloyd Loses Battle with CancerBy Sharla Thill
Survivors include wife, Dana, son, Chad Kaiser of Ellinwood, and two daughters, Christa and Charlie Chesmore, of Topeka, and Cami and Josh Thomas of Ellinwood. There are nine grandchildren. He also leaves a brother Mark and Lisa Lloyd of Manhattan, and a sister, Denise and Ed Bucher of The Woodlands, Texas.
His grandparents were Ed and Edna Jenisch and Anna Jenisch, longtime members of our parish, and Taylor and Zillia Lloyd.
Services were Tuesday, June 21st, at St. Joseph Catholic Church. Our deepest sympathy to the family, from the community of St. Joseph’s Church.

Once the villagers decided to pray for rain. On the day of prayer all the people gathered, but only one boy came with an umbrella. THAT’S FAITH.
When you throw babies in the air, they laugh because they know you will catch them. THAT’S TRUST.
Every night we go to bed without any assurance of being alive the next morning, but still we set the alarms to wake up. THAT’S HOPE.
WE plan big things for tomorrow in spite of zero knowledge of the future. THAT’S CONFIDENCE.
We see the world suffering, but still we get married and have children. THAT’S LOVE.
On an old man’s shirt was written a sentence – ‘I am not 80 years old, I am sweet 16 with 64 years of experience.’ – THAT’S ATTITUDE.
Have a happy day and live your life like the six stories!
Six Little Stories
One of the most colorful sights in the Vatican is the Swiss Guard. This part of the Vatican Army has the special privilege and job of guarding the Pope.
This guard was formed in 1505 by Pope Julius II. He made a treaty with the Swiss people. They were to provide 250 men to be the special bodyguards of the Pope.
Their numbers have dwindled to 100. The Vatican is no longer a temporal (worldly) power, and the Pope does not need such a large special force.
The recruits must be native Swiss Catholics under 25 years of age. They must be over 5 feet 8 inches tall, in good health and noted for good conduct.
They must also be free of military obligation to the Swiss government.
The Guards wear a distinctive uniform of 16th century design. The jacket, knickers and hose are bright yellow, blue and red. The helmet has a plume. The guards have an ax, used in the 15th and 16th centuries. Sometimes they put on a breastplate of armor.
Some say Michelangelo designed the costumes. Others say it was the great painter, Raphael.
The Guards are always prepared to give their lives for the Pope. They proved their loyalty and bravery in 1527, when the Austrians invaded Rome. Forty-two of the Swiss Guardsmen led Pope Clement the 7th, from the Vatican to safety. The rest of the troops were killed by the invaders.
Each year, on May 6th, the date of the massacre, new recruits take the oath of fidelity.

The second annual “Dechant Golf Classic” to raise money for retired priests of the Catholic Diocese of Dodge City was held on June 24 at the Southwind Golf Club in Garden City.
Ed Nemnich and Mike Thill, of our parish, along with their team members, George Strecker of Wichita and Darrel Strecker of Garden City, tied for First Place overall. There were approximately 25 teams, and 100 golfers.
Bishop Brungardt was present on hole #9 and greeted all the golfers as they came through. He presented various challenges for each group.

As they left the hole Ed and Mike said to themselves, “We hope the Bishop works on his putting for next year!”
“Last year the tournament raised over $21,000 for the Dechant Foundation,” said Mike. “This year the tournament appears to have done even better.”
The classic is sponsored by several area businesses and individuals. Ed and Diane Nemnich have been major sponsors both last year and this year.
Thill added, “The day began with a special Mass at St. Dominic’s, with Father Reggie and the Bishop presiding. In the Bishop’s homily he mentioned that he did not guarantee that by attending Mass, we would play better.”
“On the way home Ed and I decided we might have played even better had Father Klein blessed our clubs.”
A prime rib dinner for all the players ended the day of golf. The Bishop thanks everyone for their support of the retired priests of our diocese.
Among the golfers playing for the Retired Priests Fund Tournament recently were Ed Nemnich and Mike Thill of St. Joseph Parish. One hundred golfers spent the very warm day playing golf in Garden City. Ed and Mike pose with Bishop Brungardt on the 9th hole of the round.

We could imagine remarks being made about a spectacular view or a stunning dress or a moving TV show. We describe perfection by removing it from our world.
We grew up with a spirituality that took for granted that the more detached a person was from the things of the world, the more perfect he was.
We assumed that we were truly Christian when we were at prayer and much less Christian when cooking supper or delivering mail, or operating a drill press, or teaching school, or burning trash.
But Vatican II, while noting the merit of those who go to the mountain top to pray, said that the place for most Christians was the valley of the living room, office, town hall or bowling alley. All human activity, as long as it is not sinful, is sacred. With Christ’s values, the Christian operates where the action is.
Ed McMahon, for instance, can be just as much a Christian on the Tonight show, as Thomas Merton in his Kentucky monastery.

(Taken in part from an editorial in St. Anthony Messenger, September, 1968.)
Every once in a while, you will come across a song that plays over and over again in your mind, long after it has finished its course on the radio. For me, that song is, ‘If We Are The Body’, by Casting Crowns. The chorus concentrates in on the importance of reaching others for the growth of Jesus Christ:
“…But if we are the bodyWhy aren’t His arms reaching?Why aren’t His hands healing? Why aren’t His words teaching?And if we are the bodyWhy aren’t His feet going?Why is His love not showing them
there is a way?There is a way…Jesus is the way”
In general, I love contemporary Christian music, but this song in particular has always stuck out to me. It makes a person stop and think - how can I live out the role that God has granted upon me as a member of the body of Christ? God has recently been tugging at my heart to focus in on one area specifically – that being the foster care system. God has used stories of children going through foster care to open my eyes and soften my heart in new ways.
I obtained the following information from the Kansas Department for Children and Families (DCF) website and the September 2015 Child Welfare Factsheet:
Since 1996, Kansas has been one of only a few states to privatize the majority of their child welfare services. Those services include foster care, adoption and reintegration services. In eastern Kansas & the Kansas City Region, KVC Behavioral HealthCare, Inc handles those services; the other 2 areas (West & Wichita) are served by St. Francis Community Services.
When a report of child abuse or neglect is made, DCF completes an investigation. If it is determined that a child is in unsafe circumstances, then a recommendation is made by DCF or law enforcement to the court, and the court decides if a child should be removed from a home. The child may be placed in foster care or in the care of a relative.
As of April 30, 2016, there were 6,762 children in OOHP (Out of Home Placement). Some of the reasons that children are removed from their homes include physical abuse, physical neglect, lack of supervision, emotional abuse, sexual abuse, abandonment, medical neglect, parental drug abuse & addiction, behavior problems, incarceration of parents, etc. The county with the largest number of children in foster care is Sedgwick County with 919. Locally, Barton County has 141 children in foster care, Rice County has 29, and Stafford County has 9.
The main goal of the system is reunification of the family, but this is not always possible. Some children will never go back home to their parents. In some cases, the parents may relinquish their parental rights, and sometimes the parental rights are terminated by the court. In these cases, the children are available for adoption. As of April 30, 2016, there were 1,154 children awaiting adoption in Kansas, with 26 in Barton County, and 6 in Rice County.
What if we knew the needs of at-risk children? What if the State took these needs to a community of caring churches? CarePortal connects churches with a heart to help with local children and families in crisis. It is a church-centered child welfare system where the needs of at-risk children and families can quickly be met by local churches. Immaculate Conception Church in Claflin is one of four churches in Barton County that has signed up for the CarePortal system. The Barton County Launch Party is scheduled for July 28th and Barton County needs are to start officially posting that day. We may also get need requests from Rice and Stafford Counties.
How does The CarePortal work? First, a child welfare worker identifies a need. It might be a physical item, such as a crib or a dresser, monetary assistance to pay a past due utility bill, or funds to allow a teenage foster child to take a driver’s education class. The welfare worker will then access the CarePortal online and submit the request
for help. CarePortal makes local churches aware of the needs, giving them a timely, non-threatening invitation and opportunity to respond. The local church contact person sends out the request to their email contact list of congregation members to see if someone can meet the need. If there is a response, the contact person then informs the other churches that the need has been met and helps facilitate getting the item to the person or family.
If We Are The BodyThe CarePortal – Every Church Doing a Little.

God has called us, the body of Christ, to care for the hurting, including children and their families. CarePortal empowers local churches and agencies to partner in overcoming barriers, and to establish a culture of church centered child welfare.
‘Just as a body, though one, has many parts, but all its many parts form one body, so it is with Christ. For we were all baptized by one Spirit so as to form one body…Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it.’
1 Corinthians 12:12-13 + 27
Every participating CarePortal Church designates a point person to keep their church connected. The point person/contact person for Immaculate Conception Church is Sandi Oberle. Members of ICC that would like to be on the contact list to receive notifications of needs may contact her at 587-9913 or 791-8417, through a facebook message, or at
We are called to be the body of Christ. We are called to be “the Church”- but being “the Church” is not just limited to what happens inside of four walls on a Sunday morning. It is also to live out our faith by serving those in need.
