The 5 Commandmentth

Part 5Exodus 20:12

To the child or young person, the Bible is clear. Prov 23:22 Listen to your father, who gaveyou life, and do not despise your mother when she is old. On the maintenance of parentalauthority, see Ex 21:15,17; Deut 21:18-21. Ex 21:15 Anyone who attacks his father or hismother must be put to death. Ex 21:17 Anyone who curses his father or mother must be putto death. Deut 21:18 If a man has a stubborn and rebellious son who does not obey hisfather and mother and will not listen to them when they discipline him, his father andmother shall take hold of him and bring him to the elders at the gate of his town. Theyshall say to the elders, "This son of ours is stubborn and rebellious. He will not obey us. He is a profligate and a drunkard." Then all the men of his town shall stone him to death.

Finding Nemo is the most popular animated feature of all time. What is the secret of its success?Much of its appeal is in the amazing technical and artistic features that helped produce awonderful underwater world. Others might point to the comical characters created by animatorsand voice actors. Behind it all is a great theme. There is a father who is a bit overprotective and ason who is a bit too careless. They both eventually learn to give in a little. The huge journey, forreunion motivated by love, gives us the greatest lesson of all. Parents and children need eachother and are worth sacrifice.

PATHWAYS PARENTS & KIDS

Hey Kids & Parents:

Pathways Kids have a lot to look forward to this

summer. By the time you are reading this, you

will have had an opportunity to hear some of our kids play

the chimes. They have been practicing on Wednesday nights for a

couple of months, and really wanted to show how much they have

learned in a very short time. Some of them did not read music, so

Connie Shawver has been assisting with their music education, as well

as preparing them to participate in our worship services. This should be

good training for some to eventually become Bell Choir members.

Our next Fun Night will be a SCHOOL IS OUT SUMMER

BASH, in the backyard at the Claassen home. Kelly, Warren, Keegan,

and Kaden have invited us to come play with them on Sunday, June 5,

from 5:30 to 7:30 PM. We’ll play games, grill hot dogs and just hang out

together to celebrate the beginning of our summer vacation. Parents can

expect more info in an email later this month. Some of the kids will have

spent the previous week at Tawakoni so we will expect to hear great

stories of fun and the things they learned at camp. Fellowship with good

friends while learning more about Jesus is one of the best experiences

ever!

Vacation Bible School planning is well under way. July 24 th

through July 29 is going to be wonderful. Krista Wasinger is planningth

crafts. Rev. Debbie and Lois Rahal are working on the Story Room. It

promises to be a great experience for kids, Youth help, and Adult

participants! Posters will appear shortly to show what is coming. Have a

great summer. See you in Sunday School Wykeemah & Rev. Debbie

KDear Hillside Family, I would like to offer my sincere thanks for the

prayers & visits during my recent hospitalization. Seeing the friendly

faces of staff, elders, & choir members made the time there more

bearable! I am so thankful that I belong to such a supportive church

family!. In Christ, Kelli Netson

K I would like to thank everyone who prayed for Jared Thomas over the

last 7 months. This young Marine is the son of a friend of mine. He has

been in Afghanistan on his 4 deployment to the war region. After someth

harrowing experiences, he has come home to his family in San Diego.

He gives credit for his safe return to all the prayers sent Heavenward by

so many people. Please continue to keep our son Geoff in your prayers.

Although he is in a much safer place than Jared was, he is still separated

from his family and needs our love and support.

Dick & Stacy Swisher

K I want to thank you for your generous contribution - especially

appreciated in this challenging economy. Thanks to caring donors like

you, Church World Service can provide food, water and other necessities

to families displaced by natural disasters. And, with your help, we can

also assist impoverished communities as they work to improve their

farming techniques, develop reliable water sources, and build a more

sustainable future. Rev. John L. McCullough, CWS

KThank You! When a congregation decides to take the major step of

continued, generous support of this vital ministry, I am reminded that our

work is not only important, but cherished. You have blessed us. If you

come to the General Assembly, please stop by the Thomas W. Phillips

Memorial Archives for a tour.

Glen Thomas Carson, DOC Historical Society

KThe Transition Committee expresses a great big Thank You to

Hillsides own Photojournalist, Scott McMullen & his wife, Jennifer, for the

Stewardship of their professional expertise & time in the making of the

eight new Ministry Videos being shown at all Church Services, through

June. And, a special thank you to Bonnie Thompson & Ken Kistler &

“The Players” in the videos. All did an outstanding job, and, how about

those Ministry Posters everyone is talking about? The Transition

Committee gives out a big Thank You to Kim Swisher & her husband Jim

for all their work in designing the layout & choosing the color, etc., for

these professionally done posters.

Remember Hillsiders, A SPIRITUAL GIFT IS GIVEN TO EACH OF US AS AMEANS OF HELPING THE ENTIRE CHURCH. GOD PLANNED IT THIS WAYSO WE WOULD NEED EACH OTHER. WHEN WE USE OUR GIFTSTOGETHER WE ALL BENEFIT. The Transition Committee

STEWARDSHIP CORNER

Extravagant Generosity

“So Joseph took the body...and laid it in his

own tomb.” Matthew 27:59-60

In the week beginning with Palm Sunday, the stories we read are full

of people giving extravagantly. Think about it and you see giving

everywhere. Someone gives Jesus a donkey to ride into Jerusalem,

a valuable beast in that time. A woman buys expensive ointment to

massage Jesus’ tired body. Someone shares their house for Jesus

and his disciples to celebrate Passover. His followers buy and

prepare food for the feast. Jesus gives them bread and tells them he

will soon give his body, his blood, his life for them. From the cross,

Jesus gives the promise of forgiveness and eternal life to a thief.

Then this lovely story in Matthew of a Pharisee named Joseph risking

his reputation by giving his personal tomb for Jesus’ burial. Then, in

the resurrection, God not only gave Jesus life, but in so doing gave

us forgiveness and a promise not to desert us, even when we desert

God. Can there be a more extravagant gift?

How do we respond to all this generosity? It needs to be more than

colored eggs and new clothes. It needs to be more than gardens of

flowers in church and Easter baskets. How do we respond to all this

generosity? With our own generous discipleship every day of our

lives. Molly Taiclet for the Hillside Stewardship Committee

PENTECOST OFFERING - JUNE 12Our Pentecost Offering this year is being dedicated to the Disciples

Home Missions for Transformation Ministries. This area of ministries is

changing struggling small congregations into active congregations.

Transformation Ministries is a fundamental change in the congregation’s

conception and implementation of ministry. A transforming

congregation will be oriented around mission to the

unchurched, nurturing them into the loving, caring

fellowship of Christ. It will be notably different from one

oriented primarily around ministering to members alone.

The needs of members will still be met. In the context of a

church in mission, everyone is important, churched, or yet-to-be

churched. Please support this ministry on June 12 when we take ath

collection for Pentecost. An envelope is enclosed for your convenience.

NOTES FROM MARKNew Choir Robe Campaign!

We have established an account for donations toward new choir robes for The Chancel Choir. Our present robes are many, many years old, full of maintenance problems, and desperately needto be replaced. If you would like to donate toward the robe campaign, please make yourdesignated donation “choir robes,” and it will be applied toward that need in our worship ministry.Look for more info in coming weeks on this campaign.

Chancel Choir to Sing Favorite Anthems this Summer!Our Chancel Choir will begin their summer break from Wednesday rehearsals, BUT, will be present in the choir loft each Sundaypresenting our favorite anthems from 2010/2011! Many of our anthems receiving top votes from the choir were from our much acclaimedEaster Cantata. Choir rehearsals will resume on Wednesday, August 17, with our Annual Choir Kick-off, with hopes that many of ourchurch members would consider joining the choir this fall!

See you in church on Sunday! Mark Walker, Director of Music
