The Three R’s:
Making a
Difference in
Today’s
World
Back when I was growing up, we were told that the foundation of education was the Three R’s: Reading, ‘Riting, and ‘Rithmetic (perhaps spelling should have had higher priority, as well). That’s all it will take for kids to be able to make a difference in the world. A few years later, we learned a new set of three R’s: Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle. Again, having an impact on our world required us to attend to this new set of three R’s.
In April, as we move beyond the joy of the Resurrec-
tion and follow the mission of Christ to the ends of the
earth, let us re-learn a new set of R’s: Relieve. Reverse.
Refill. Together, these R’s will make an impact beyond
our walls and beyond our generation. Let us join the
disciples as we make a difference in our community and
around the world
“So Who Does What Again?”
As we welcome Katie Hobson onto the Spiritual For-
mation team as our intern for Youth Formation, it is
probably a helpful time to remember what our Spiritual
Formation Team looks like, clarifying roles for all of the
Team members. There are basically three parts to our
team: The Spiritual Formation Ministry, our Associate
Pastor for Spiritual Formation, and our team of In-
terns/Adjuncts. Each role is as follows:
♦ The Spiritual Formation Ministry is the lay leader-
ship portion of the team. Just like the other seven
ministries (Worship, Facilities, etc.), this ministry
meets regularly in order to do the work of their ar-
ea: oversee the budget assigned and support the
programming of Sunday school, youth and chil-
dren’s ministries, and special SF events. Brenda
Schenkel is the chair of SF this year.
♦ Our half-time (20 hours a week) Associate Pastor of
Spiritual Formation is the point person for the spe-
cialized ministries that take place. Pastor Cheryl is a
“supervisor of supervisors,” working closely to
oversee and mentor the team of interns and adjunct
