STARKDALE PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH November 2012

We are now in the month of November and about

to enter one of the most meaningful seasons of the

year, the season of Advent, followed by the cele-

bration of Christmas and Epiphany. The church

has a lot for which to be grateful, and a lot to cele-

brate:

Abigail’s Angels have raised over $33,000 over

the last two months. We continue to pray that their

financial goal would be met in full, and that the

research for the cure of blindness among young

children be achieved.

Our Pastor to Young Families, Youth and Chil-

dren, has already begun his position and proven us

right; this specialized ministry was way overdue.

He is averaging 19 to 22 teenagers at his gather-

ings and promises that more will come. He plans

to reach out to leaders from community schools,

churches, and organizations such as PRIDE, the

Children’s Home, the Christian Academy …etc.

God has wonderful plans for the youth of our com-

munity and church.

During the month of October we received seven

new members, reenlisted two who have been on

the Inactive list, and welcomed back one who has

been away for a period of time.

I have already completed my studies, was exam-

ined by the Presbytery of the Alleghenies and ad-

mitted into its membership.

Our elders have been studying intensively in

preparation of their exam by the Evangelical Pres-

byterian Denomination. They will be examined

on November 10 and admitted into the member-

ship of the Presbytery by the end of the month.

Our sanctuary now looks more beautiful, cleaner

and larger due to the new carpet and some remod-

eling repairs, thanks to the hard work of three men

and a lady.

Our staff offices have had a facelift and are more

professional looking, attractive and welcoming.

The Sunday school classes and the midweek Bible

studies are drawing more people, some of whom

drive from Richmond, Weirton, Burgettstown, and

Martins Ferry.

What a list of blessings this is to be added to our

personal blessings as we approach Thanksgiving

this month! The Lord is good.

Speaking of Thanksgiving, the “Faith in the Future

Annual Breakfast” event will be held at Starkdale

on Friday November, 16 at 7:30 A.M. (Guest

Speaker: Jody Glaub); and the Ecumenical Thanks-

giving Service will be held at the Chapel of Urban

Mission on Sunday, November 18 at 5:00 P.M.

(Guest Speaker: Vaughn Foster).

We have just begun; we shall wait and see what the

Lord has in mind for Christmas. Starkdale cannot

be what it is without the many of you who are Christ

-centered, mission-minded, family-focused, Bible-

based, God-loving, and prayer-motivated people.

God bless you all!

FROM THE

Big Day of Serving A Big Success

I recently returned from a wonderful day of service with

10 other Starkdale participants from Akron and am ex-

hausted but overjoyed at how God used our students

today. A few of the tasks we worked on included con-

structing park benches for an area under urban renewal

which is giving young families positive things to do in

the core area of the city. We also painted, cleaned ta-

bles & chairs, planted and weeded garden areas,

assisted with cleaning at a community center which ser-

vices primarily underprivileged youth. We also were

able to go to the "Peanut Shop" and buy some candy

and planters nuts too. I was blessed to lead our group

and another youth group of teens in a Bible Study at

lunch time on the fact that we as believers are all a part

of the "body of Christ" and each one of us has a job to

do in order to have the work of the kingdom accom-

plished in the world. The ride there and back was a lot

of fun as the students laughed and had a chance to get

to know one another a lot better than they did before the

trip. To sum it up when I saw one of our students

(Saharah) get out of the van and yelled out "that was

awesome" as she ran to her vehicle to get a ride home I

knew God had done His work today in our students

lives. Also special thanks to Rick Baker who drove and

worked very hard with the bench construction and Jeanne

Cox who took a group of our students by herself for a

while as we needed to split into two groups.

In Other Youth Related News...

Our new Starkdale Youth Worship band debuted last Sun-

day evening and were very well received by the teens. We

had our largest turnout of youth ever last Sunday (at least

20) and we have new students attend each week. It

seems like God is building something wonderful here and

we covet your prayers for even more teens to be reached

for the gospel through this ministry.

Blessings,

Pastor Bobbyjon

Veterans Day is November 11. Call and tell a veteran

Where Angels Tread, Success Follows!

It was certainly a sight to see over 300 local ‘angels’

tread the streets of Wintersville. They honored seven-

year old Abigail Kinney’s fight for sight, promoted

awareness for a rare eye condition called Leber’s Con-

genital Amaurosis (LCA) and in the process raised over

$31,000.

The Abigail’s Angels Charity Walk’ was held on Satur-

day, September 22. It started at Indian Creek High

School auditorium and back concluding with ‘Finish

Line Festivities’ of music, fun inflatables, quality basket

raffles, food, facing-painting and more.

“This first-annual event truly exceeded expectations,”

says committee member and co-organizer, Cindy

Sagrilla. “The community support was overwhelming.”

“The most sincere thank-you doesn’t come close to ex-

pressing my gratitude for everyone’s participation; the

sponsors, walkers and the multitude of volunteers,” says

mother and organizer, Lori Kinney. “As we continue to

devote our attention to this cause, we are blessed by the

outpouring of continued love and support from so many,

knowing it means so much for my little girl.”

or call Starkdale Presbyterian Church Office at 740-264-

5309.

[Leber’s Congenital Amaurosis (LCA) is a disease that

causes the eye’s retina to slowly die. The gene RDH12 is

the culprit, but there is hope. Research is now underway

for the development of a gene therapy treatment that will

sustain or restore vision for many like Abigail. Abigail’s

Angels support the official 5013C non-profit, “The

RDH12 Fund for Sight” and all donations are tax de-

ductible. All monies are used to fund RDH12 research.]

If you'd like more information about this topic or the

event, please call Cindy Sagrilla at 740-635-6484 or e-

mail Cindy at [email protected]

IN THE MAILBAG:

Dear Starkdale Family,

Thank you so much for all of your prayers and

support during my recent surgery. God has truly

blessed me with such a wonderful church family. I

will continue to keep you in my prayers as well. God Bless you

all,

Bob Neal

Thank you for your thoughts and prayers which have provided

me with comfort and a grateful appreciation of my Starkdale

family. May God bless all of you.

Janet Haverfield.

Dear Starkdale Family:

Many of Dr. Makari’s recent sermons dealing with Christian

Fellowship have really hit home for our family in recent months

and we would be greatly remiss if we failed to mention the out-

standing examples of Christian Fellowship and generosity we

have received from the members of Starkdale Church during the

arduous and often agonizing steps of our move to become mem-

bers of the Wintersville community.

Along the way we have faced deceit, deception, incompetence,

and unethical behavior from a multitude of people who claim to

be professionals, and yet at every turn, when our temptation

rose to fall into Satan’s trap to fight at that level, there was an-

other member of the Starkdale congregation present to step up

and help us, provide support and prayers and present us with

offers of generosity that have been OVERWHELMING. As

we come to the end of the miserable journey, and finally do get

settled in, we owe a great deal of thanks to the Starkdale con-

gregation. Specifically, our eternal gratitude goes out to Eleanor

(and Steve) Drazich, Carolyn and Vernon McCamic, Dr. Tom

and Suzanne Brown, Bob and Cindy Sagrilla, Jane Gambos, and

John and Judy Mallet. You have epitomized what Christian Fel-

lowship is all about and our family is grateful to you beyond

what words can express. We thank God daily for putting Stark-

dale into our lives and the recent acts of benevolence shown by

the members of our church family have truly cemented our bond

with the Lord and this amazing church family. Rest assured,

Christian Fellowship is alive and well at Starkdale!

Gratefully, humbly and sincerely,

Rick, Melanie and Kody Carver

Dear Starkdale Church,

I want to thank the church for the card. Your thoughtfulness

means so much to me. Thank you for kind words and prayers. I

really appreciate it. Hope to be back in church soon.

Love and Prayers,

Kylee Paris

TO EVERYONE WHO

GAVE SO MUCH TO

MAKE

“Abigail’s Angels

Charity Walk” a

huge success!

The Abigail's Angels Charity walk held on

September 22, was a huge success. We were

able to raise $31,000.00 to benefit the

RDH12 Fund for Sight. The money raised

will be used to fund research, now in pro-

gress at the University of Michigan, to de-

velop a cure for the RDH12 gene mutation.

A big thank you to our church family for

hosting the event. The Starkdale congrega-

tion supports Abigail and The RDH12 Fund

for Sight, spiritually, financially, and with

their labors of love.

Thank you to the numerous sponsors and

volunteers who made this event possi-

ble. The success of this event proves once

again that the people of the Ohio Valley

have hearts made of gold. It is our personal

hope and prayer that through the funding of

the research a cure will be found for Abigail

and for all the children that this disease af-

fects.

2nd Annual Live Nativity

Mark your calendars to join us for Starkdale’s 2nd Annual Live Nativity on Sunday, December 16, 2012.

The presentation celebrating the birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ , will be repeated at 30 minute

intervals from 5-8 p.m. (5:00, 5:30, 6:00, 6:30, 7:00, and 7:30 p.m.), each followed by a time of fellow-

ship and refreshments. A passenger drop-off point near the building and shuttle service to and from Riesbeck’s

parking lot will be available. We encourage you to take time out of the busy holiday season to worship God

as the message of the Live Nativity directs our hearts & minds to focus on the true meaning of Christmas

which is recorded in Luke 2:10-11: But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid; for behold, I bring you

good news of great joy which will be for all the people; for today in the city of David there has been born

for you a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.

Starkdale Congregation: We are in need of adult volunteers willing to participate as characters or help-

ers. Please contact Jane Gambos or Cindy Sagrilla for details. We will also be accepting donations of

homemade cookies the week before the event.

The Annual Starkdale Hymnfest held on October 7 was an-

other great success as voices were raised in praise to the

Lord by the congregation, the choir, soloists, and singing

groups from the Tri-State area. Pictured to the left are “The

Four Friends” (George Allan, Bob Burns, Paul Visyak, and

Jody Glaub) who are always a favorite at the Hymnfest.

Below is the Starkdale Choir lifting their voices in Praise.

Carolyn Glaub is the choir director. Others who sang in-

cluded Tom Graham, Carolyn Glaub, Morris Knabenshue,

Pastor Bobbyjon, Faith and Emily Bauman, The Friends

Choir, and Splendid Sound. Stephan Carroll accompanied

the congregation as they sang “Just as I Am”, “Heaven

Came Down”, and “Give Thanks” for the offertory given to

support Abigail’s Angels.
