Newsletter - August 2022

Pastor’s desk  

 Throughout this year I have been discussing the events and celebrations that happen throughout the  year. There is something we should celebrate every week, that being the very word of God. I want to  explain, briefly, how we came up with the readings every week. Some churches just pick every week what  they are going to read and then read it. Some churches go through a book of the bible over a short period of  Time. But going back all the way to the early church they had what is called “lectionaries”, which would  have been a book that would have readings assigned to specific Sundays or Festivals. Then the church would  use that book every week. In the fourth century a twofold reading developed in Rome and became standard  throughout most of Europe. The use of three readings was standard in what today is France. Rome had a  one-year lectionary, which lasted for centuries. A One Year Lectionary that Luther and Lutheran Reformers  kept. Even the One Year Lectionary that the LCMS uses today isn’t that much different than the Lectionary  that Luther used.  

 For this reason you can actually look up Luther’s Sermons for any given Sunday, it will probably be  similar to the Gospel reading that the One Year lectionary today is using. This One Year Lectionary has  stayed in use for more than a millennia. Of course there have been other lectionaries that have been used  throughout the years also.  

 At Vatican II the Roman Catholic Church expanded the lectionary and developed a Three Year  Lectionary for Sunday readings in 1969. Lutherans and other Christian group bodies took notice. Protestants  took that lectionary and made some changes and created the Revised Common Lectionary. The LCMS did  change a few of the readings and choices from both. It is after all this that the LCMS came up with the Three  Year Lectionary reading it uses today. The structure is pretty simple. The First Year is Series A and it uses  Matthew. The Second Year is Series B, and uses Mark. The Third Year is Series C and uses Luke. (The  Gospel of John shows up in all three Series, but shows up the most in Series B since Mark is the shortest  Gospel.)  

 The Old Testament reading is designed to connect and develop or inform the theme of the Gospel  reading. Except of course during Easter when it is taken from the Book of Acts.  

 The Second reading or lesson comes from an Epistle. Usually these Epistle readings are selected so  that an entire letter is read over consecutive weeks. This is why the Epistle reading can fit perfectly with the  other two readings, but sometimes it doesn’t.1  

 I hope this helps explain why we use the readings that we do.

Summer is almost over and Preschool is less than 1 month away! We have been enjoying playdates at the  park and our Preschool Carnival was a huge success thanks to our sponsors, participants, and especially our  volunteers! August 18 is our Back to School Open House and Registration Night from 4:30-6:00 pm for  those interested in attending Preschool in the Fall. We have a few spots left in the 3 year old class and limited  spots left in the 4-5 year old class, so we look forward to school this upcoming year! We also want to send a  BIG shout out to the trustees and thanks for all your help getting the playground ready for the upcoming  school year...we couldn't do it without you!

From Pastor’s Desk:  

 This year I have been going through the church year and discussing the seasons and festivals. From  the end of Easter all the way to Advent is the season of Pentecost, which often times ends up being more than  half the year. There are several festivals that happen during Pentecost. I want to discuss one of the more  famous ones.  

 The Feast Day of St Peter and St Paul is celebrated Jointly on June 29th. It was thought that Peter and  Paul both met their death at the hand of Nero in the early Sixties. Tradition had Peter dying in the colosseum  on an upside down cross. Paul died outside the gates, by a sword.  

  

 According to Duchesne, the June date marks the day Emperor Constantine exhumed their bodies from  remote tombs along the Appian way, and returned them to the city of Rome. They were then buried in  magnificent basilicas the emperor built to their memories.  

 The Feast itself, in a sense, commemorates their actual martyrdom, and the fact they died for the faith.  It is probably one of the oldest Feast Day’s in the churches history considering it goes back all the way to  Emperor Constantine.

Thank you to those who donated items for the Preschool Rummage sale held in June. Our Free Will  Donation sale managed to raise over $300 and the remainder of the items were donated and distributed to area  charities. We also want to give a big thanks to our Preschool Committee members and Church members for  helping make the event successful. We are also looking forward to our Preschool Carnival coming up July 13  from 5:30 pm – 7:00 pm. We are still looking for volunteers who would be willing to help set up, tear down,  run games or help with face painting, snacks or any other area which could help our event be a success.  Please let Emilie know if you are interested or have any questions!

Pastor’s desk for June  

 Throughout this year we have been discussing the specific times and seasons of the church year. We  more specifically discussing unique customs or traditions that happen during these seasons. The First Sunday  in June this year is the Sunday of Pentecost. In Scripture Pentecost is the day when the Holy Spirit descended  upon the Apostles.  

There are 40 days from Easter to Ascension, and then there are 10 days from Ascension to Pentecost.  In the ancient church kneeling during services was fairly common. The Council of Nicaea in 325 specifically  banned any kind of kneeling during Pentecost. [Here “Pentecost” is that whole fifty day period from Easter  to Pentecost.] Kneeling, they said, was a mark of penitence and humility. In other words, they wanted people  to pray boldly, standing upright.  

 We know Pentecost is one of the OLDEST holidays celebrated in the church year. Pentecost is even a  Jewish holiday. In the Old Testament it was known as the Feast of the First Fruits, or the Feast of the  Harvest. Originally it was a thanksgiving for the harvesting of the wheat in and around Israel.   In this, can see why this day was picked for the Holy Spirit to descend upon the disciples. The  Holiday should remind us of Jesus words to his disciples in Matthew 9:37-38, “The harvest is plentiful, but  the laborers are few; 38 therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.  ” The Holy Spirit’s work showed us, it was time for the Disciples to go and spread the word of God  throughout the world. Of course, we are still called to spread that word of God today.

   Over the last few months, we have been going over the customs of the seasons. When I discuss  Christmas I like to remind people that the Christmas season is 12 days. I always think this puts the church at  odds with the rest of the world, because when the world is completely done celebrating Christmas, we still  have Sundays after Christmas where we celebrate the holiday. Easter is very similar in this regard, with one  caveat. While Christmas is celebrated for 12 days in the church year, Easter is celebrated for 50 days. The  Mood of Easter does not end with Easter Sundown. The feast lasts right on until Pentecost!   This means that all six Sundays after Easter, along with Ascension belong to the Paschal Feast. The  40 days from Easter to Ascension along with the 10 from Ascension to Pentecost were days of such spiritual  excitement that the disciples celebrated them with as much joy as they did Easter.   The Fullest account of Ascension appears in the Acts of the Apostles. Here Jesus charges his  disciples with proclaiming the Gospel and Promises that he will send his Holy Spirit. Then he ascends into  heaven to sit at his Father’s right hand.  

 One interesting tradition with Ascension is what happened to the Paschal Candle (Sometimes Christ  Candle). This candle was seen as Christ’s presence with his People. The candle was solemnly extinguished  during the Ascension service. This was to show that Christ would no longer be visibly present with His  people, but would instead send the Holy Spirit.  

  I hope the joy that we have on Easter Sunday does not get extinguished during our 50 days of Easter.

We explored many activities related to food, music, and art and working together in the  classroom. We want to thank all our guest readers and visitors who attended our classroom last month to  make it such an amazing time. Our 1st annual Easter Egg Hunt & Storytime also went so well with over 75  children along with their families in participation. A BIG thank you to our church members and board  members who helped make this event a success and we look forward to having one again next year. As  Spring is upon us, we will begin doing some Spring Cleaning in May/June and plan on holding a  Church/Preschool Rummage Sale on Thursday, June 9 with drop-off of donated items on Wednesday, June 8  from 4-6 pm.

Pastor’s desk  

 Over the last few months, we have been going over the customs of the seasons. For the next two  articles I want to go over some of the customs of Easter. I want to discuss a day that usually gets forgotten in  our Easter Customs, that being the day before Easter. It is sometimes called Holy Saturday or Easter Eve.  At Dusk on Holy Saturday, people used to light lamps and candles. It was to mark the beginning of the  Easter Vigil. People were waiting to celebrate Easter. This light was the symbol of Christ who was the light  of the world.  

 In some places Easter Vigils lasted the entire night with people hearing readings from Scripture,  antiphons, and prayers. There were a lot of customs surrounding Holy Saturday in the ancient church.  Previously pagan adults were still being converted to the Faith and had gone through instruction were now  ready to be Baptized. At Midnight, people who were going to be baptized stripped themselves of Jewelry.  Then they listened to the final exhortation of the bishop and then marched to the Baptistery.   There the Bishop Baptized them. After being anointed with Oil, they donned fresh white linen tunics  and were given new sandals. They then stayed in these outfits for the Easter Service.   Later in the Easter Procession the Bishop, other clergy, the newly baptized, and other faithful,  gathered up the sacred vessels and the bible they would do the readings from. Then they left out a side door  of the church and then marched around the church. Others would come to join them as everyone gathered  around the main entrance which was now locked and closed. The closed door represented the closed tomb of  Christ. When dawn approached the doors would swing open. The people would chant “Christ is Risen”.  Then the whole assembly would re-enter the sanctuary for the Service of Eastertide. That would have been  the end of a very eventful Saturday Night.  

 I always try to think of these old Customs on Holy Saturday. The new converts ready to be Baptized.  Spending a whole night praying then in the middle of the night being Baptized. Then entering into a new  day, washed with water and oil. Then putting on new clothes. All of this to celebrate Easter. It would be  easy to see yourself as reborn, as a new creation. Is this not what Easter is all about? How the death and  resurrection of Christ has made us a new Creation.

Greetings from Preschool!  

Our class has been busy welcoming Spring and have finally been able to get outside to enjoy some  nice weather. We had our Spring Open House on March 8th and it was such a great success! We enrolled a  few new children for the upcoming school year and ALL our students in our current class will also be  returning next year in the 4-5 year old class! We are currently preparing for Easter in the classroom and look  forward to our Community Egg Hunt & Storytime on April 8th from 5:30 pm - 7:00 pm. Mrs. Arce will be  reading the Easter story to the children and the Easter Bunny will also be making an appearance. We are still  in need of egg/candy donations for that event and appreciate any help we can get. Our Preschool also helped  host concessions for the area Dartball Tournament held at the church on March 13th and we were excited for  the donations we did receive that will be put towards playground improvements! We look forward to our  upcoming month and focusing on the Resurrection of Jesus Christ with the children!

Pastor’s Announcements:

I thought for this Pastor’s desk article I would explain the last few weeks and a few of my plans for the future. A few weeks ago I announced in Church that I was returning the call that I received from Lincoln IL. Dana and I did go visit the church, and it seemed like a nice congregation. We still decided to stay. I appreciated all the prayers and thanks we received from members of both congregations while we considered the call. It did get me to think about the future specifically about the things we could do at our two churches going forward.

The first thing I would like to announce is I plan to do two Adult Bible studies on a weekly basis. The first will be at 10:00 am on Wednesdays at St. Peter. The second will be at 7:00 pm on Thursdays at St. Paul. The Two Bible Studies will be similar and cover the same material. The reason why I am doing it at both churches and at two different times is to make it easier for members to come to the Bible studies. I purposely made one in the morning and the other at night so that people could choose the one that worked for their schedule. The reason why I made it at both churches was so people could come to their own church for the Bible Study if they so wished.

The second thing I wanted to talk about was Confirmation. For the months of September and October we will be having Confirmation on both Wednesday night and Thursday both at 6:00 pm. I am doing this to give parents a chance to pick a night that works for them and to make it possible for them to be at their own church building. It might change though in November if only one child or no child is coming to one of the two nights.

If you have a question about either one of these two announcements call me 715-663-1845.

Catechism Classes

Catechism Classes will begin on Wednesday, September 1 st at 6:30 pm. The First class meeting will include the parents for an important organizational meeting will be held at St. Peter.

Notes from Preschool

We are excited to start school on August 31! We had our Preschool Fall Open House on August 18 and had 6 families attend and 1 follow up about enrolment. We currently have 7 children enrolled for the fall and will have combined classes on Tuesdays/Thursdays and our 4-5 year olds on Wednesdays. We understand this is a "rebuilding year" with all new children and have hopes of possibly adding more as the school year progresses. September 9 is our School picture day and our Back to School night for current families will be on September 29 at 6:00 pm. We look forward to a great start to the school year!

We are currently looking for classroom subs on September 14, 15, 16, and 21. If you are interested in helping out those days from 9:00 am - 11:30 am, please email Stephanie Arce at stpeterpreschool123@gmail.com. Thank you so much for your support!

From Pastor's Desk

I didn't really know what to talk about for July. So I looked up what Saints' Days and festivals were in July. Mary Magdalene’s day is July 22nd. St. James the elder's day is on July 25th. There are a lot of eoplenamed James in the Bible. One is James the Brother of Jesus. In fact there are two Apostles named James. This is the more famous one. This is James the son of Zebedee. Which means this is also John's brother. James was called with his brother by Jesus. He was with John and Peter when Jesus was transfigured. James was with the Apostles when they saw the Resurrected Christ and when they saw him ascend into heaven. Unfortunately James was not there to witness how the faith was spread throughout the whole Roman world. The reason for this is that James is martyred in Acts 2:12. There we are told that Herod the king killed James the brother of John with a Sword.

Although James did not get to confess his faith throughout the whole Roman world, "The strongest of all confessions is confession made in the face of martyrdom". "So the church rightly accords highest honor to martyrs who have shared in the suffering of Christ."1 We should remember the promise Jesus makes to his followers, "Be faithful until death, and I will give you the crown of life."
