“We are ‘Central’ to Winona, disciples of Jesus living a vibrant faith.”

March 2018

259 W. Wabasha Winona, MN 55987 www.CentralLutheranChurch.org 507.452.5156

Congratulations!

Central continues to improve and shine! I wish to ONCE MORE tell you how you are unique and healthy: Your worship has quality liturgical plan-ning. Your office is efficient, welcoming, and work well together. Your at-tendance is stable. You continue to receive new members even in transi-tion. You have moved forward in youth ministry in transition and you are continuing to evaluate, restructure, support and improve this ministry. Your confirmation program is amazing. Your building and grounds are beautiful and well maintained. You are considerate and concerned for your pastor. You have two visitation pastors visiting the homebound and providing ser-vices at five local nursing facilities. Lay leadership, committees and con-gregational members are taking seriously the ministry of the church, not leaving all decisions and work to the pastor and staff. Your finances, while

not perfect are not bad either and you are growing your financial stewardship. Your Sunday School is vibrant and active. You have revitalized WELCA. You open your doors to the arts, to Winona State, to community groups. You feed the community with the Feast on Wednesdays. You have a marvelous, hard-working, gifted staff.

Thank You!

March 4th will be my last day of preaching here at Central Lutheran Church. I have indeed loved my time here at Central, although my cat, Rahab is delighted to have only ONE more car ride home. Thank you for your support financially, emotionally, prayerfully and as we moved forward. You pro-vided all I needed. I am sorry I wasn’t able to finish out the race, but I know you are close to a grand finish! Blessings to you and your new pastor. May God richly bless and keep you.

Call Committee Update

Your call committee continues to work hard but works with a common purpose and consensus be-cause of your support and prayers. Since our last update we have received candidate names from the Synod and are in the midst of the interview process. Meanwhile we continue to meet at least weekly and often times twice a week as well as many-many emails between ourselves. Please con-tinue to pray for us.

Please join us on March 4th, between church services,

to say good-bye to Pastor Jan!

Pastor Jan Mehlhoff

Adult Forum: You Are the Way: Devotions for Lent 2018 Sun., Feb. 18 - March 25, 9:15 a.m.-Library

In the Gospel of John, Jesus describes himself with a series

of “I am” statements: “I am the light of the world,” “I am

the good shepherd,” “I AM,” and so on. Each week we will

recap the reflection from the week and introduce the next

week’s statement. Join us for reflection and discussion of

these statements as we go through this Lenten journey.

CLC Book Group Mon. Mar. 5 & 19, 9:30 a.m., Library We will be finishing Max Lucado's book "Grace" this

month. We have been gaining a deeper understanding of

grace- more than we deserve, greater than we imagine. In

April we begin the book "The Great Spiritual Migration" by

Brian McLaren. The book says the Christian story, from

Genesis until now, is fundamentally about people on the

move-outgrowing old, broken religious systems and

embracing new, more redemptive ways of life. The

Christian faith is not dying, rather it is embarking on a

once-in-an-era spiritual shift. We would like to have

you join us for discussion. We will be ordering the

books in the next 2 weeks and you may contact Gayle

Garrity at 507.961.0465 for more information or to

order a book.

ty, has received a grant from the Laura Jane Musser foundation to bring the Welcoming Table to Winona. On

March 19th there will be a noon meal served at Central Lutheran Church to bring together a diverse group of

neighbors for a meal and conversation. The meals will happen on a monthly basis, often at Central Luther-

an. There will be information regarding reservations for the meal in the in the weekly announcements or you

can call the church office. This is a great opportunity for our congregation to support this multi-cultural project

and have fun too. See you there! Gayle Garrity

March meals. Please note there is NO Feast the week of

Holy Week, March 28. 3/7 - Potato Bar

3/14 - Spaghetti

3/21 - Rita’s Sloppy Joe’s

3/28 - NO FEAST (Holy Week)

The Feast is continuing to sustain itself with the support of

loyal patrons and the hard work of many volunteers. New

folks have come forward to try their hand as cooks, and

many, many community groups have come forward to gra-

ciously welcome, serve and clean up. The Feast committee

is very grateful.

We are at the point where we can seek a volunteer coordi-

nator. We need someone to coordinate the scheduling of

volunteers week to week. This can all be done from home-

no driving worries. An extensive list of groups committed

to serving has been created over the last few years, your

job is to schedule them. People love to help at the Feast!

This is a fun task! Feedback from Feast volunteers is that

they loved their experience and are glad to come back.

Congregation members who bring groups in to serve feel a

sense of pride in our congregation for supporting and sus-

taining this ministry. Please consider whether you might

have a few hours each week to make sure the Feast is

staffed, with enough, but not too many, helpers. (Yes, there

are that many willing volunteers.) Contact Kelly Dicke at

clc3.operations@gmail.com if you are called to volun-

teer for this job. Your time will be well spent, much

appreciated and fulfills God’s call that we love one

another, serve one another and feed one another.

The FEAST The Feast is always in need of drivers to deliver meals to

home-bound congregation members who have requested a

meal. There are 5-10 deliveries each week, and your deliv-

ery is greatly appreciated. Contact Kelly Dicke at

clc3.operations@gmail.com if you are able to give less

than an hour a week toward the Feast. Thanks for consider-

ing!

Seeking Worship Video Recording Helpers Central seeks one or two volunteers to help video record

Sunday worship for broadcast on local cable television. We

can teach you how to run the equipment. Commitment:

Record a Sunday 8:00 or 10:30 a.m. service once a month

(we have a rotation so you don't have to do every Sun-

day!). Contact Erik Floan

Seeking Confirmation Guides & Mentors Do you love God? Do you like kids? Are you willing to

help make Central’s Confirmation interesting, exciting,

relevant, and deep? Adults serving as Guides become men-

tors, listeners, prayer warriors, advocates, and coach-

es. They do not “teach” the lessons, but through small

group time and personal relationship help young people

translate them into valuable faith experiences.

Commitment: Wednesdays 6:30-8:00 p.m. You do not

need to have kids in the program to be a guide. In fact, sea-

soned adults (older than me?) make excellent

Guides. Contact Erik Floan CLCmusic3@gmail.com

Building Fund Gifts to the Building Fund in January totaled

$1,212.00. The mortgage payment was $3,146. Please

March 2018

Butter Braid Sales in 2018 was a record setting year. The center brought in $2400 to help with the playground update that will happen this summer. Thank you!

Spring Fever is Real This summer the

center is updating the playground. The play-

ground fundraising is still in full swing. The Butter

Braid sale, that we just had, was just a small part.

The center started in 2012 dancing our way into the

hearts of Winona with Dancing with the Winona

Stars. The fundraising has been ongoing and we

will

soon

see the fruits of our labors with this new

wonderland for the children at the center to play.

The center will be looking into age appropriate equipment for our youngest children to be able to spend time outside and be safe. To keep the equip-ment from being used by non– appropriately age people a new fence will be installed.

We will be starting the planning process soon. We will be opening up opportunities of more fundrais-

Keeping busy during these

cold winter months.

“We are ‘Central’ to Winona, disciples of Jesus living a vibrant faith.”

259 W. Wabasha Winona, MN 55987 www.CentralLutheranChurch.org 507.452.5156

Youth News/ Events In January I attended the annual Extravaganza Event in Houston, Texas. Extravaganza was an amazing experi-

ence. The Extravaganza is “an annual 4-day conference that draws together anywhere from 500-750 adults

who work with youth in congregations of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America for the premier renew-

al, education and networking event of our church.”

It is an event that allows for meaningful networking and education for people who work with youth all over the

nation. It helps connect pastors, youth directors, volunteers, and other various forms of youth work from sum-

mer camp programs, seminaries, and retreats. In my time at “the E”, I met lots of wonderful people and really

took note of what has been effective in their ministry and what has been ineffective. I feel recharged in my

ministry here at Central Lutheran and I am already making plans for what our youth program will look like

over the summer and in the fall.

With Houston being the host city of the National Youth Gathering this summer, I also got to get a feel for the

area before taking our 8 kids on the trip this June. I got to see the hotel we’ll be staying in and some of the

sites around it. Our kids are really excited about the hotel pool as you can see from the photos it’s actually a

lazy river that’s in the shape of Texas!! Not sure how much time we will be able to spend at the hotel pool with

so many other things going on but it really is exciting to be located in such a cool place. Our hotel is very close

to Minute Maid Park where the Houston Astros play and not far from that is the Houston Toyota Center where

the Houston Rockets play.

We are counting down months until Houston and we are so excited. We are still working to raise money for

the trip! It is going to cost $1500 per kid so every bit of money helps. If you haven’t signed up for our Shrimp

Scampi Dinner on March 18th buy your ticket now!

Change of Habit, Change of Heart Erik Floan, Director of Worship Music & Arts (and a few other things)

Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me. –

Psalm 51:10

If you’ve been at worship this year, you know I’m trying to change some of our habits, especially that “Lutheran Mum-

ble”. I’m not expecting anyone to be raising their hands like a Pentecostal, but we are working to more zealously ac-

claiming the responses, like “Amen! And Also with You! Thanks be to God!”

And I’ve noticed a change. Every week, a few of us open up a little more. By Easter, I hope our visitors report “wow,

those Winona Lutherans sound like they actually mean what they say!” Amen. Uh, I mean… AMEN!

Lent is a good time to examine our hearts, and change our habits.

Most of you know I’m an alcoholic in recovery. Many of you witnessed the chaos and destruction my addiction caused

Central Lutheran Church, my family, and myself. It came down to this: if you expect to save your heart, Erik, you have

to change your habits.

When I entered rehab, the very first thing the Hazelden counselors did was tell me: Get up by 7am, Make your Bed,

Clean your Desk. The beginning of my change of heart had to include small accumulating changes of habit. Over 28

days these “rules” became life-giving habits which aid my recovery.

Some habits are less fun than others. Most students dislike homework. Not every member of the sports team loves

getting to practice early. Cancer survivors dislike chemotherapy.

The Lutheran Church doesn’t have a lot of hard and fast “rules” about worship or personal devotional practices. Luther

realized he’d never, ever live up to the “rules” he was asked to abide – both in scripture and in his monastic vocation.

Thus, we Lutherans are rightfully suspicious of anything that smacks of “earning our way into God’s grace.”

Strangely, most of us don’t carry that conviction into our work or school or social lives. We follow work schedules. We

get our kids to school events. We show up on time to movies and plays and card games and even Happy Hour. We

wouldn’t dream of skipping our heart medications or the pre-natal checkups.

I can promise that the day I stop making my bed, I’m headed for a relapse. The day I forgo my personal prayer disci-

plines, I’m one step closer to caring less about this congregation.

In order to save my heart, I had to change my habits.

So here’s my heart poured out for you.

Continue ….

As I’ve become more active in youth and family at Central, I have become very aware of something: our hearts are in

the right place, but some habits are going to have to change before this ministry soars.

First, families of the kids heading to the Houston Youth Gathering have a lot of preparation work: Fundraising, logistical

planning, Covenant writing, packing. But at the top of the list: Becoming fully comfortable praying aloud. It’s one of

those things we do as a church. It’s a hallmark of Christian community. It may not come naturally for some, but luckily

Jesus gives us some pointers. I’m looking forward to this moment: By the time these kids get on the Houston bus we

are expecting them to pray on a dime. Out loud. In front of friends. Without cues from a pastor, me, or Evan.

Second, families with youth have to be connected with worship. I visit swim meets, football games, and hockey, and I

enjoy seeing CLC kids and their families. I’m truly astounded at the level of time, financial outlay, and loving effort fam-

ily’s show. Scheduling practices and attending games is a habit. The results are obvious.

How do we make youth and families connect with worship a habit? (Please notice I didn’t place that effort solely on

the families.). Trust me, I get it: everyone is busy. And I’m single without kids. As confirmation leader I hear it all the

time: We just don’t have time to make it to church. She has team practice during worship and he has a school project

that needs to be done.

Where do you want your heart to be? What habits will change to help?

The addiction counselor hears this all the time: “I don’t have time for AA; that meeting isn’t convenient for my sched-

ule; it’s too cold to go out.” To which the counselor will reply: “remember when you were drinking, how you travelled

farther, in any circumstance, in colder weather, to get loaded?”

Getting my heart’s desire meant first forming some new habits. And renewing others.

Growing up, my family said – and still says – prayer before every meal. Dad often led devotions before school. We al-

ways attended worship. Was it sometimes boring? Did we believe every word the pastor preached? Yes and no.

But was it habit forming? Did those habits shape my adult faith practices? Yes, absolutely.

This Lent, where do you want your heart to be? And what change in habit will be necessary to sustain it.

We have received the report from Lutheran World Relief that tells us where our Quilts and Kit have been sent

in 2017. They are shipped from the warehouse in St Paul to 12 different countries, from Angola to the

Ukrane. Check the poster in the narthex to see where our items have been sent. They are highlighted in yel-

low on the Chart.

Our Quilts provide comfort and warmth, the School Bags provide youth with materials

helping them attend school. The Fabric kits are used to teach sewing skills that may help people out of pov-

erty. The Personal and Baby care Kits are often given to those in refugee camps , this is such a help in caring

for themselves. What a wonderful mission!

There are lists of the supplies that go into these kits available on the information desk in the entry.

Just a note, we are VERY fortunate in having the warehouse right here in Minnesota. No shipping charges to

get them there as a member delivers them to the warehouse at no charge. (Thanks Peggy and Rich) What a

blessing. We also receive most of our supplies from members and friends of Central so our out of pockets

costs are minimal. Thanks for all of your generosity.

'Lord, when was it that we saw you hungry and gave you food, or thirsty and gave you something to drink?

And when was it that we saw you a stranger and welcomed you, or naked and gave you clothing? And

when was it that we saw you sick or in prison and visited you?' [He] will answer them, 'Truly I tell you,

just as you did it to one of the least of these who are members of my family, you did it to me.' Matthew

25:35-45.

Where do you see the Face of Christ?

Lutherans believe Christ is revealed in scripture. Says good Martin: “The Bible is the cradle wherein Christ is

laid.” And also: “Nothing helps more powerfully against the devil, the world, the flesh, and all evil thoughts than

occupying oneself with God’s Word, having conversations about it, and contemplating it.” Martin Luther, Introduc-

tion to the Large Catechism.

In the Gospels, Christ teaches in parables, metaphorical yarnswhich usually begin, “The Kingdom of God is

like….” Wednesday Night Workshoppers can tell you the Parable of the Good Samaritan, the Parable of the Lost

Sheep, the Parable of the Sower, and the Parable of the Prodigal Son. (Go ahead, ask them) Christ also teaches that we see him when we serve others:

This Lent we encounter the Face of Christ each Wednesday scripture, song, prayer, and praise – and through the 2,000-

year-old tradition of Iconography - we will explore how we see Jesus. Guest pastor Keith Homstad, a retired pastor of

the ELCA living in Northfield, MN shares his passion for preaching and writing (“painting”) Byzantine-style Christian

icons.

KEITH E.O. HOMSTAD, BA, MBA, M Div., is a retired ordained pastor of the ELCA – Evangelical Lutheran

Church in America, as well as an active preacher, presider and enthusiastic writer (painter) of Byzantine style Christian

icons. He has studied with Ukrainian, Russian, and Syrian Antiochan master iconographers and has produced over 130

icons. You can see most of his work online at www.etsy.com/shop/Iconsbypastorkeith where original icons, greeting

cards and copies can be ordered. He maintains a large icon painting studio in Northfield, MN.

let them know you are thinking of them.

You want to do something for them, but what can you do?

You can knit or crochet a prayer shawl.

We are getting the prayer shawl ministry going again.
