Tucson, Arizona
VISTAS February 2019
Noah had it rain for 40 days and 40 nights. The Israelites wandered in the desert for 40 years on the way to the Promised Land. Moses was with the Lord for 40 days and nights while receiving the Law on Mt. Sinai. King David and King Solomon each reigned for 40 years. Jesus was tempted for 40 days in the Wilderness.
40 is a big deal in the Bible. It means “A LOT.” For Beautiful Savior Lutheran Church, it is A LOT!
2018 was the year BSLC turned 40. February 5, 2018, saw us celebrat-ing those 40 years with special guests and the founding pastor, Dan Hodgson, preaching that Sunday. It was a great time to consider all that has happened, and all that has been accomplished in 40 years. It was A LOT!
A community of faith was established. An Academy that is well known and respected in this area was developed. Countless lives have been touched by the worship, ministry, and people of BSLC. It is A LOT of good news that has been shared, lived, and given here.
Here is the thing though- WE AREN’T DONE YET! Forty may be a lot, but there is a lot more that we are called to do.
So, read the Annual Report and see what has been done this year. See what is being looked forward to as we keep following Jesus into the future. Pray for the ministries, the church, its members, those who have yet to come, and for yourself to see where God is calling you to do your part.
For we go “Forty Forward” following our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. We remember this truth from Scripture: “Surely the LORD your God has blessed you in all your undertakings; he knows your going through this great wilderness. These forty years the LORD your God has been with you; you have lacked nothing.” Deuteronomy 2:7
So, knowing how blessed we are, and that God is with us providing what we need, we started our “Forty For Four” (40 4 4) Campaign. It’s goal was to raise $40,000 each year for 4 years. It was to provide money for
40 IS “A LOT”

significant repairs and improvements that would help us move into the future. Last year we raised $34580.94. THANK YOU TO ALL WHO GAVE TO MAKE THAT POSSIBLE!
With that money, we were able to make improvements in our HVAC equipment for the entire campus (18 units!), install a T-Coil Loop System for the Hearing Impaired in the Sanctuary (final equipment to be installed soon), and update the Sanctuary with new paint, carpet, and expanded tiled surfaces for acoustic improvement of the space.
Isn’t it amazing to see what we can do!? Yet, WE ARE NOT DONE YET! There is more, much more, we can and need to do. Here is a list of projects to be tackled (hopefully with your help!) in the next 3 years of the campaign: new sanctuary speakers, renovated and improved Narthex/Gathering Area, Parking Lot surfacing, better signage, phone system replacement for the campus, roof repairs for the Academy, repainting and other upgrades for the Academy, window repairs for leaky windows, etc. etc. etc..
There is a lot to be done as we have used this campus a lot. Plus, if you look at our calendar, our average worship attendance (up 7 from 2017), and the list of new members- we have a lot more use ahead of us! For those who come now, and for those who will come in the future, we need to attend to the task of moving us forward.
A letter with an intent form will be coming out around the anniversary date in February asking you to prayerfully consider how you may add to your giving and support this campaign. I ask that you fill it out and return it so we can start planning and seeking bids. Please help us move forward together.
SOME THINGS TO LOOK AT THIS YEAR:
Mountain Vista Unitarian Universalist, our renters for over a year and a half now. They have had ups and downs in their search for a new home. How long they will remain with us is up in the air, but a question we should ask ourselves is, “What would it be like to share space for a longer time frame?” What are the pros and cons and things that would have to be worked out or done differently? Would it be worth it? I believe there is potential there that would help us utilize the building more and grow an income stream that will help support our ministries. Something to pray about at the very least.
Telecare- a connecting ministry to our members. This would be a ministry where volunteers would call through our membership list on a regular basis with a simple question- “Is there anything you would like the church to pray for?” That’s it. It isn’t a phone tree for announce-ments or recruitment/giving calls, it is simply calling people, saying ‘hi’ and asking if we can pray for something that is one their heart. There will be a training coming up about how to do that and handle things that can come up, as well as simple training on prayer. Contact me if you are interested in calling or praying.
Updating Information- please, please, please! Last year we asked

HELP US SPREAD THE WORD…REGISTRATION FOR THE 2019-2020 SCHOOL YEAR BEGINS MARCH 1ST! We need all of you to help by sharing our information with friends, family, and neighbors.
February has the Academy Team looking at all of our options for
the upcoming school year. With the approval of an Assistant Director,
we are considering extending the academy hours to better meet the
needs of our surrounding community. We are not sure what that might
be at this point, but we will be working diligently to get our plans in
place prior to the start of registration on March 1st.
In the meantime, please consider making a donation to
ACSTO and receive a dollar-for-dollar tax credit on your
Arizona state income taxes.
I will be holding parent meetings this month to recruit
kindergarten students for the 2019-2020 school year and we need to
ensure that we have funds available to provide scholarships to these
families. For the past two years all of our kindergarten students have
received full scholarships for their tuition. We are hoping to enroll a minimum of 10 students for the
upcoming school year which would require us to have- $34,500.00 in our ACSTO “school pool”.
Please consider helping us in our effort to keep our kindergarten program thriving! Donations can
be made on-line at www.acsto.org, by telephone at 480-820-0403 or forms are available in the
narthex to mail in your donation.
We will also begin our search for an Assistant Director. This would be a part time position
covering the afternoon academy hours. Our team is in the process of defining the hours and job
description, but if you know of anybody who might be interested please share with them my contact
information.
AND FINALLY, HELP US SPREAD THE WORD…REGISTRATION FOR THE 2019
-2020 SCHOOL YEAR BEGINS MARCH 1ST!
With the anticipated opening of Ina Rd. and the completion of Cortaro Rd., we are hoping to
see an increase in our enrollment. But, we need all of you to help by sharing our information with
friends, family, and neighbors. And don’t forget to “share” the posts on our Beautiful Savior
Academy Facebook page. Thanks for your anticipated support!

GRAND CANYON SYNOD—BISHOP’S LETTER
“As I have been travelling throughout the Grand Canyon Synod, I have met many of you with remarkable stories of faith, courage, and trust. Your faith is a constant source of inspiration to me.”
When Jesus had finished speaking, he said to Simon, “Now go out where it is deeper, and let down your nets to catch some fish.” “Master,” Simon replied, “we worked hard all last night and didn’t catch a thing. But if you say so, I’ll let the nets down again.” Luke 5:4-5
I wonder what Simon, a professional fisherman, thought when he received this command from Jesus. Was he inspired and eager? Or petulant and cynical? He was probably tired from working all night. He might have been discouraged and sad that he didn’t catch anything.
Regardless of his feelings, he probably did not expect that he would meet a man who would compel him to set aside his nets. Following Jesus changed his life completely.
What are times in your life that God has pulled you away from shore?
Although I felt called to be a pastor since junior high, it wasn’t not ordained until I was almost 50.
In my 30s I was married, had two kids at home, worked full time. I didn’t have a college degree, which would be required before I could even begin seminary. I knew that the time and resources required would be
significant. It would have been much safer to ignore this lingering call from God.
My mentor encouraged me to “just get started.” With fear, and excite-ment, I let down my nets for deeper waters. And my life has been deeply enriched in ways I couldn't have dreamed because of it.
As I have been travelling throughout the Grand Canyon Synod, I have met many of you with remarkable stories of faith, courage, and trust. Your faith is a constant source of inspiration to me.
Can you relate to Simon in any way? Have you been working all night for something that hasn’t come your way? Are you feeling tired or hopeless in any part of your life?
As you pray to God, do you have the courage to listen and respond to where you are being pulled to deeper waters? Can you trust that God is leading and guiding you?
I want to hear where God is alive in your life, in your community. With gratitude for you and how God uses you to make a difference,
The Rev. Deborah K. Hutterer Bishop Grand Canyon Synod of the ELCA
