Charles Schulz has managed to

amuse and bridge generations

with his characters, Charlie

Brown, Lucy, Linus, Pig Pen, and

company. With their own special

brand of charm, they often pro-

voke laughter and pause for

thought, as Lucy constantly doles

out unsolicited advice. You may

remember the episode when

Charlie Brown seeks psychiatric

advice from Lucy. Lucy tells Char-

lie Brown that life is like a deck

chair on the cruise ship of life.

What you have to decide, Lucy

says, is whether you want your

deck chair to face backward so

you can see where you have

been, or if you want your deck

chair to face forward so you can

see where you are going. Exas-

perated, Charlie Brown responds,

―I’m having trouble just getting

my deck chair unfolded!‖

We are a blessed congregation

with many of our leaders facing

forward. As we journey together

it’s important that we continue to

dream and to vision. When we

make decisions based only on our

past experiences we limit God to

what we know. But God in all

God’s abundance offers us so

much more. The only way to

open ourselves to all that God

offers is to imagine a future that

is beyond anything we’ve ever

experienced.

This week, give some thought to

what you see ahead. Try to de-

scribe one or two things you

would like to see happen in our

church, which contributes to ful-

filling our God-given mission. I

am eager to see how God is

speaking through our hearts,

as we express and share our

hopes and visions for the fu-

ture.

Use the Heart Card on page 9

to write down these things

and bring it with you on Sunday,

Nov. 11. Think bigger than you

ever have before. Your card will

be added to an inspiring display

in the church. We will have addi-

tional blank Heart Cards availa-

ble in worship. What are your

hopes and visions for our

church?

―I, the Lord, reveal myself to

them in visions; I speak to them

in dreams.‖ (Numbers 12:6b,

NRSV)

I spent the last weekend in

September attending a gather-

ing for the Love INC (In the

Name of Christ) organization.

Love INC is a national organi-

zation that has become inter-

national in the last few years

with their new affiliates in Ken-

ya. Love INC is a clearinghouse

that unites the churches in a

community to better serve the

people in need. It allows for

churches to be better stewards

of the money God has given

them charge over.

After an affiliate is started, the

churches would refer their re-

quests for benevolence to Love

INC. A volunteer at Love INC

would do an intake, gathering

as much information as possi-

ble including references, to

check the legitimacy of the re-

quest. When they find the re-

quest to be legitimate, the vol-

unteer would ask a church if

they could fulfill the need.

Then, the volunteer would

send the request to the church.

After the need is met, a follow

up call is made to make sure that

the need was met, and the volun-

teer would continue the rela-

tionship to offer spiritual sup-

port.

As the affiliate matures, many

other programs could possibly

be developed starting with gap

ministry. As volunteers take in-

formation, they would start to

see needs in a community that

are not being met. For every

community, these needs are dif-

ferent. Love INC would ap-

proach a church to see if they

could start a ministry to fill the

gap of a particular need. For ex-

ample, the volunteers may hear

over and over that people need

diapers. There may be no place

in town that offers help with dia-

pers, so Love INC would ask a

church if they would like to start

diaper ministry.

Transitional ministry is also de-

veloped after time. This ministry

focuses on transforming lives

by offering classes that help im-

prove lives. Classes that would

help with resume building, in-

terviewing or household budg-

eting to name a few.

Love INC looks at giving differ-

ently than the traditional way

of giving. Instead of a ―hand-

out,‖ they give a ―hand-up.‖

They look at the assets of the

people requesting benevolence

instead of the needs. They

strategize with the requestor

to see if they have ways that

they can meet their own need.

Love INC has been around for

more that 30 years. In those 30

years, over 150 affiliates have

been developed uniting over

9,000 churches and over 7,000

community-based organiza-

tions. Over 300,000 volunteers

have served to help over one

million people in need.

As I see the increase of re-

quests for benevolence, I see

the need for Rochelle and the

surrounding communities to

develop a Love INC. Working

for one church and attending

another, I had a strong desire

that the churches of our com-

munity need to unite. I knew

there was a better way to give.

Through this experience, God

confirmed for me that Love INC

is a way to do both, I ask for

your prayers as I head forward

to unite the churches of Ro-

chelle to start developing a Love

INC for Rochelle. If you

would like for information or

feel lead to help in this task,

please visit me (Heather :) in

Give Away Sunday, November 4th

Join us on Sunday, November 4th as we bake, decorate and deliver Pump-kin sugar cookies to people in and around the church. We will start the process at 2:00 and hopefully be done delivering them around 5:30.

CROP Walk

On September 30th we had 13 youth and 4 adults from our church join us in supporting the local CROP hunger walk. As a small group we raised over $1,526.00 together. We had 89 walkers from all around the community participate in the walk and help raise a total of $4,064.76 to help those who are hungry in our community and around the world. 25% of the total amount raised will go to help the Rochelle Christian Food Pantry, the Ashton Food Pan-try and the Rochelle Summer Lunch Program. The rest will go toward helping fight global hunger through Church World Service. Thank you to all who helped sup-port us in this year’s CROP Hunger walk.

PACK Raking Leaves

Sunday, Nov. 11th On this day we will be doing our Planned Act of Christian Kindness by raking leaves for families in the area. Bring your rake and join us in helping our neighbors right after Sunday School at 11:30am. Lunch will be provided before we begin. Remember to bring your rake and change of clothes to church on that day.

Come join us on Saturday nights as we Worship,

connecting our lives to God as well as to each other.

The message will be given by Pastor Paul Rasmus-

sen. Pastor Paul is a fourth generation Methodist

Pastor. He is in his 11th year of Pastoral work.

After coming to a Connection service our hope is

that you will have felt authentically welcomed and

will have been inspired to have a more meaningful

relationship with God. We hope to see you there!
