Ministry of the Month
“Where words fail, music speaks.” —Hans Christian Anderson
“He who sings prays twice.” —Martin Luther
As humans, there are times in our lives where words fail. Where the soul is incapable of expressing a true feeling
or emotion. And in those times, it is my experience that music and arts can fill the gap. To create a beautiful
painting, to play a symphony, to sing a melody… these, among others, are ways in which the soul can communi-
cate and touch the hearts of others. There are moments of vulnerability and moments of celebration. Moments
of fear and moments of peace. Moments of anger of moments of love.
To be human is a unique and beautiful thing. God created mankind in His image, and He calls us good, because He
is good. And just as our Creator molded and formed mankind from the dirt, and breathed life into Adam’s lungs,
He created in us a desire to create. To express. To share our hearts with mankind through artistic expression.
We create because we are reflections of our Creator.
We are celebrating music ministry as the Ministry of the Month at Fountain of Life. We are inviting you to join us
as we share our hearts with others and create music in honor of our Lord. Our worship style varies from con-
temporary to blended to traditional, because we want to reach our community in whatever way their hearts
speak. So whether you play the guitar or trumpet, sing arias or rock songs, we have a place for you in music min-
istry at Fountain of Life.
Get connected to Jesus through song by signing up on our website www.cometothefountain.com/worship-arts :

From the Leadership
Procrastination
Since our last newsletter, BoSL and Elders met together, and Mark Winterhoff (head Elder) has an informative
piece summarizing our meeting and next steps in this newsletter, so I was unsure what to add from a BoSL per-
spective. The following is from me instead of from BoSL…
Without a focus on what to write, I continued to procrastinate and am submitting this at the absolute deadline
(sorry Deb!). But, by procrastinating, I bring you thoughts from this past weekend that I would not have had with a more timely newsletter submission.
I would like to thank everyone involved in the FoL Golf outing this Saturday. What a beautiful morning to share
conversation, fellowship, and the occasional good golf shot. No matter the scores, I am blessed to know my fel-
low brothers and sisters in Christ a little more after spending time with folks that I have not had as much interac-
tion with at church. I look forward to the next addition; even if my golf game does not show up, I surely will.
I left the golf outing to attend Jay and Michelle Moss’ wedding. Once again, God had a plan for a beautiful day,
and coupled that with a beautiful ceremony. It was such an honor to be a part of this for Jay and Michelle, and
our own Faith and Gene put on a wonderful musical performance.
Sunday morning brought the end of a great 6 week Sunday School lesson that Mike Shaw and Mark Winterhoff
taught, called Balanced. Give, Save, Spend (Live off of)….in that order. A great spiritual lesson on Money and
your relationship with God. Thank you to all the participants that shared stories of their life to make this a great
class and to Mike and Mark for your leadership. (Thank you to Carl Langefeld for your class on Romans as well).
We finished up our Sola series during worship service. I was a little unsure how a video sermon series would
work, but received so much out of the series. Thank you to our worship leaders and staff for a well-planned se-
ries.
We finished Sunday evening with our Life Group meeting at church. Our group is forming into a great friendship
among our members. We are able to think, laugh, and cry….and we did all of those Sunday evening. Our sup-
port for one another as we go through life raising our children is a blessing. Thank you to our Life Group lead-
ers that continue to support this wonderful ministry.
Now, I began with speaking on procrastination, and all the good that came of this writing by waiting. I would be
remiss if I wasn’t honest and look at an area we have procrastinated and address it here as well. We as a Leader-
ship have procrastinated this year on finding help that we need with regards to property management. We have
wonderful caretakers of the outside physical grounds, but have let the building maintenance fall directly on Deb
Hayward’s role. The time and effort that has been put forth by Deb is astounding, all the while keeping her
“regular job”. If you have been procrastinating on finding a spot at FoL for your time, talent, and efforts, please
prayerfully consider helping with facilitating our property upkeep. Reach out to me if you feel you can help and
we can discuss!
Blessings to you all,
Michael Bell, BoSL Chair
Dear Fountain of Life Family,
During the Town Hall meeting held on September 10th, we discussed the various options available to Fountain
of Life in terms of filling our pastoral vacancy. Over the last few weeks, the Leadership Team has had the op-
portunity to learn more about these options and discuss them. We feel that the Intentional Interim Pastor pro-
cess is the best fit for FOL. We think that this process will allow us to spend some time as a congregation en-
suring that healing has occurred, examining what we are looking for in our next pastor, and how we can suc-
cessfully prepare for the next pastor to have a long and fulfilling tenure at Fountain of Life. We are planning to
have a congregational meeting in the upcoming weeks where the LCMS Southeastern District will share the de-
tails about the Intentional Interim Process and answer any questions that may arise. In the meantime, please
visit http://www.interimministrylcms.org/ to learn more about the process. The LCMS Southeastern District
will provide us with a list of pastors that are available, and our congregation will vote to extend a call to an In-
tentional Interim Pastor (calls typically range from 12-18 months). We will communicate a date for this infor-
mational meeting as soon as we confirm with the district.
Blessings,
Mark Winterhoff, Head Elder

Adult Classes Martin Luther: The Idea that Changed the World
November 5 & 12
Come see the movie, Martin Luther—The Idea That Changed the World!
Fountain of Life has purchased the movie that documents how the Reformation
happened 500 years ago. How did it impact the Church, how did it inspire the
establishment of the Lutheran Church, and how did it change many things about
life, culture and communication? The radical events, compelling personalities, and
exciting drama of the Reformation are brought to life in this full-length documen-
tary. It features thrilling reenactments of the sixteenth-century events with com-
mentary from leading church-history experts, including the President of the Lu-
theran Church-Missouri Synod. Due to its roughly 2 hour length, the movie will
be shown in two parts on successive Sundays during the education hour.
Ascension: The King Takes His Throne
Ray Vander Laan Video
November 19
It was customary in the Roman world to consider the emperor a divine being.
New emperors would claim this status because they believed that when the previ-
ous ruler died, he would ascend to heaven to be seated among the gods, making
his successor “the son of a god” back on earth. What would happen when these
ascension stories clash with the story of Jesus, who was crucified, resurrected,
and then ascended to heaven Himself, to be seated at the right hand of God? Ex-
plore the empty tombs at Khirbet Midras and climb the Mount of Olives with the
disciples as you discover what it meant for Jesus to rise from the dead and ascend
to heaven.

The tradition of the Fountain of Life Angel Tree began many years ago! It is through the grace of
God and the congregation’s generous giving that we are able give literally hundreds to gifts to
those in our community.
How do we pick who to help?
Most of the families that become our angels are families that local school counselors have
picked as the need-iest. We currently take 3 families, of any size, from each of 6 different schools.
Some of our Angels are members of our church. Some of our Angels are families of our commu-
nity that are sponsored by church members. Each person under the age of 18 is allowed 3 gifts
– 2 things they need and 1 that they want. Angels over the age of 18 are given one gift card.
How can you help? First of all please cover the Angel Tree in prayer. It is through God’s grace that we have always
met the needs of those represented on the tree.
I will need people to help shop this year. Please contact me if you can help!
Three additional ways that you can help:
1. Pick one or more Angels from the tree (available November 19). IMPORTANT: Each Angel has
a code on it. Sign out the Angel in the Angel Tree book. Please put your name and phone num-
ber or email. This helps me track missing Angels. Shop for your Angel and then return it back to
FOL by Sunday, December 10. If your gift is a gift card, there is a box at the Information Center or
you may drop it off in the Church office.
2. Donate money for the Angel Tree – you can put cash or
a check in the offering plate for the Angel tree. Please put
it in an envelope or write ANGEL TREE in the memo line
a check. By donating through the church your donation is
tax deductible. I will then take the donated money and
shop for Angels left on the tree. You may also donate
online!
3. Don’t Want to Shop? You can pick an Angel, give money
and leave the shopping (and wrapping) to volunteers!
Can we give gently used items?
Yes for some items – Bikes, Game systems, Electronic
games, Infant items, For other items please contact me
and we can discuss it.

What is ?
A place for people in their 20s and 30s to get connected to Jesus through:
LifeGroup: Our LifeGroup is hosted by Matt and Carissa Gorris, and we meet about once a month at
rotating locations of our members. We typically meet on Fridays at 7pm. We are a NO HOMEWORK
group, so even if you missed a meeting you can always show up to the next one. We do not usually provide
childcare for this LifeGroup, but are working to communicate our dates far enough in advance to allow
parents to set up childcare.
Fellowship: Social events are held about once a month.
Service: We serve the Lord together both on and off campus. Sometimes we partner with other
ministries of FOL. We have service events 3-4 times a year.
Friends are always welcome. We welcome singles, married couples, and families. We do our best to provide
events for people in their twenties and thirties in any season of life!
We have some events coming up this fall, so mark your calendars and plan to attend:
Stay connected by joining our Facebook group for more detailed info about our events and for updates!

Life Groups The Protestant Reformation: It’s Still All About Jesus
Five hundred years ago Martin Luther nailed his 95 theses to the church door proclaiming the Good News
of the Holy Bible that salvation is gained through Jesus Christ alone and NOT by works. As we celebrate
the 500th anniversary of the Reformation, we can’t help but be grateful to Luther and others that dared to
insist that the Bible be translated into the language of the common people.
Today we are fortunate to have the Bible to read, study, and learn on our own, and to find God’s will for
each of us. We no longer have to go into hiding to discuss salvation through faith. Small life groups of Je-
sus-followers from our church meet together regularly to connect and grow closer to our Lord. We
study Jesus and His teachings, how they apply to our lives in the twenty-first century, and we support each
other as we endeavor to take up our cross daily.
Salvation has always been about the free gift that Jesus’ sacrifice made available to us. Life groups are the
way we support Jesus-followers at Fountain of Life Lutheran Church in learning specific ways to love God
and love our neighbors as ourselves. It is through this demonstration of love that we honor God.
Don’t miss out on this crucial connection to believers at Fountain of Life. Jesus is present as we gather to-
gether in our groups. It is still all about Jesus, about his sacrifice, and about being connected to other disci-
ples of Christ. For more information about joining a life group, contact Pat Shaw or Larry Scott.

Families with Children Middle & High School
Dear FOL Families with children,
God is our creator, and He has a special plan for all of
us! He has given us families, food, homes, and clothing,
and has blessed each of us with unique gifts and talents.
In November, we give thanks to God for all of these
things and we celebrate our blessings on Thanksgiving.
Our Children's Sunday School lessons this month address
how we can give thanks and praise for these gifts all year
long, and we'll explore the meaning behind Thanksgiving.
We'll learn how to be thankful for obstacles in our lives,
and how we can see these as an opportunity for God to
do amazing things. We'll also be playing games, making
crafts, and having some fun with Turkey Tales. We hope
that you can join us on Sunday mornings at 9:50 a.m. for
Sunday School, and hope you know how thankful we are
for YOU!

We are done early enough that you still have time to spend with the family after a busy week
at work. For November we will be discussing "Wild" by Cheryl Strayed. For December we
will read and discuss "The Broken Road" by Richard Paul Evans
Overview: Chicago celebrity, Charles James can’t shake the nightmare that wakes him each night. He sees
himself walking down a long, broken highway the sides of which are lit in flames. Where is he going? Why is
he walking? What is the wailing he hears around him? By day, he wonders why he’s so haunted and unhappy
when he has all he ever wanted-fame, fans and fortune and the lavish lifestyle it affords him.
Then a twist of fate changes everything. Charles is granted something very remarkable: a second chance. The
question is: What will he do with it?

Visitation
Thanksgiving is almost upon us. According to studies, Thanksgiving Holiday is the most
travelled day of the year. Folks visiting both near and far from home. Visiting, that is what folks
are doing and giving thanks with their families/friends for their many blessings.
Visits from your Visitation Ministry team are available for YOU. It does not need to be a
holiday for me to come and visit . You don’t need to be sick or in the hospital to receive a
visit from me, (although I do those visits as well). On my visits, we pray together over any
concerns/issues you request discuss any questions you may have about your spiritual needs
and if you would like, I provide communion. What is spoken about during our time together
is confidential as well, between God, you and me.
What do you give God thanks for this Holiday ? I give thanks for the life God has given me,
for my family, my FOL Family, friends, good health, and the Ministry he has led me to, which is
to come and visit YOU. Please contact me when you need or would like a visit. I DO look
forward to visiting YOU!

Describe your childhood: school, play, sports,
church
Attended school and was active in the First Christian
Church youth movement in Harrison, Arkansas.
Brownies and Girl Scouts was the after school activity.
Once I gained confidence, I thrived on being the top Girl
Scout cookie seller. (We sold cookies door to door way
back in those days) :) My GS troop raised enough funds
from the cookie sales to take two 27 day trips to
Colorado, New Mexico, Texas and Arizona during the
summers of 1968 &1969. My Dad’s career moved the
family to Virginia the second half of my senior year in
high school. I graduated from Radford College (now
Radford University) with a Speech Communications
degree.
How did you decide on a profession?
Women were just becoming involved in national media.
I thought I wanted to work in TV. TV markets are in
larger cities. I had not considered the impact of being a
single female in a larger city. The summer of my senior
year prior to my internship with WDBJ-TV, my seasonal
retail job with Roses Discount was not available. My
mom had uncovered a reporter position with the local
newspaper, The Gazette. I got the position, was given a
3 month leave of absence to complete my degree. The
rest is history.
Tell us about your family and how you met
Brady.
Galax, Virginia was a small town that offered unique
business opportunities. While working for Carnation
Milk Company, my dad opened a Donut Shoppe next
door to a grocery store. During the school year, it
provided really-early morning employment to my two
brothers. During the summer of 1975, I worked the
shop during the day. Brady and I met when he stopped
to purchase donuts one morning.
What are your prayers for Fountain of Life
Lutheran Church?
That God will bless our efforts and grant us a plentiful
harvest of souls. That he will Increase our trust in his
word; keeping our faith strong, and that we will look to
him for guidance and strength.
Where do you want to retire?
Kernersville. Brady and I like the safety and size of a
smaller community. We believe we will be able to
enjoy the mountains, beaches and weekend trips to
larger cities.
What would the congregation be surprised to
learn about you?
I have three brothers. However, anytime my Dad
wants to talk sports, he calls me to get my opinion.
