Decluttering Church Building

The Church Council has decided to declutter our church building. We have put some target dates in place. 

November 1, 2006 - Committees have the opportunity to look at and straighten their areas, and identified their storage needs.

November 4, 2006 – 8:00am Church Council and anyone who would like to join the cleaning detail. 

We will put any things we think we don’t need in an area so our church family can be sure we haven’t removed something of importance to a committee for two weeks.

November 18, 2006 - Dump Run - early morning.

Wreath Making

For the Snowflake Fair

Place - Cathedral of the Pines

Dates - November 1st, 4th, 10th, 17th, 18?

Time - 9a.m-12 noon

We’ll be working in the shed. There is a wood stove, but please dress in layers. Bring gloves and clippers. No previous experience necessary. Good company and fellowship.
PLEASE JOIN US

Common Grounds Coffeehouse

We're very excited to announce that our church is sponsoring a coffeehouse right here in Rindge! We'll be bringing live music, featuring local New England area performers. We will serve our gourmet Fair Trade coffee from Equal Exchange, as well as some sweet dessert treats. This is something new for our church and new for the community of Rindge, so we encourage you to support and publicize this as much as possible.

Here are the details: The coffeehouse will be open the second Friday of each month. Doors open at 7:30, and the music starts around 8:00pm. The music will be traditional, folk, bluegrass, celtic, Americana, blues, and roots, all performed by talented professional and semi-professional musicians in the area. There will be a small cover charge and coffee and desserts will be for sale as well. All proceeds will go to the musicians and to the support of the Rindge Food Pantry or other local missions. This is a great way to support local musicians, strengthen our community, and reach out in love and fellowship.

So what can you do to help? Come and enjoy the show. Put up some flyers. Tell a friend or neighbor. Bake a pan of brownies. Call Jim and Cindy Melhorn (899-2268) to become a part of this.

Bands scheduled so far:

January 12 - April Hobart www.aprilhobart.com
April lives in Rindge and is an up and coming songwriter and folk musician. She sings with a clear, soulful voice, combining old country and bluegrass tunes with a little bit of the blues, and is able to fill up a room with her sound, even when appearing as a solo act with just her guitar and vocal chords. Her new CD, "Time to Travel," was released on April 22nd, 2006. She describes her style as "Country Blues. Some of the songs are Bluegrass, a few are pretty folky, there's some Alt-country in there and some Old-time Country as well. I like to think that I'd make Jimmie Rodgers or Patsy Cline take notice if they were still around. They rank high among my influences, along with Bill Monroe, Gillian Welch, Emmylou Harris, Hank Williams, Alison Krauss, Willie Nelson, Edie Brickell, Michelle Shocked, to name a few." From her sonicbids.com electronic press kit.

February 9 - The Marcy Hill Band www.marcyhill.com

A rock solid mold of some of New England's finest musicians - The Marcy Hill Band's hard driving sound stems from their background in bluegrass, classical, rock and jazz. These seasoned veterans have combined talents to create an unmistakable sound. With driving instrumentals and tight harmonies, the band offers traditional and progressive bluegrass with a modern twist. Members of the band include: Gary Skillings, a native of Milford Connecticut, now residing in Peterborough, a renowned and award-winning banjo and guitar player, and Steve Abdu, who has played bass with Jonathan Edwards and Martin Mull. In the early seventies, he was a member of one of the most successful Boston bands, London Records recording artists "Orphan", an opening act for such bands as the Allman Brothers, The Byrds, BB King, Blood Sweat and Tears, and Hot Tuna to name a few.

March 9 - The Goodtime Charlies www.goodtimecharlies.net
This New Hampshire / Massachusetts based blue grass band, consisting of April Hobart on Guitar and Banjo, Bill Jubett on Fiddle and Banjo, Bob Sevigny on Guitar, and Andy Sicard on Mandolin, originally formed two years ago out of the friendships developed through local jams and festivals. Since coming together, The GTCs have performed at fundraisers, numerous weddings, dances, company parties, outdoor festivals, parties, pubs and even at a grocery store! "This group of Bluegrass players belies their youth. As their name implies, they provide a goodtime for all ages. Harmonies are great, pickin' and playin' are tight. Their exuberance is definitely catching and their performance at the Lakes Region Conservation Trust's 2nd Annual Afternoon of Bluegrass at Castle in the Clouds, Moultonborough, NH was outstanding. They'll definitely be welcomed back next year!" Lisa Anderson, Owner of Santos Dumont Café.

April 13 - Nate Smith and Friends http://users.net1plus.com/greystone/nate.html
This show will feature four area performers and will be hosted by Nate Smith. Nate Smith, from Fitchburg, MA has been writing & singing his own songs since way back in the 60's. A frequent performer in the Boston and Worchester areas in the '70s, Nate has returned to the music scene after taking some time off for family. Nate currently hosts the Boulder Coffeehouse in Fitchburg and recently released his 2nd CD, Damage Control. He mixes his own songs with Bob Dylan and Leonard Cohen material, and his influences include Woody Guthrie, Joni Mitchell, and Pete Seeger. Nate plays guitar, and he also sings some old time traditional songs with open back banjo accompaniment played claw-hammer style.

Church Council
October 19, 2006

Present: Chair Janet Kohlmorgen, Tony and Mary Alice D’Ambrosio, Sue Campbell, Pastor Jim, Janet and Burt Goodrich, Marcie Miller, Cynthia Childs

Following the opening prayer by Pastor Jim, the minutes of the September meeting and the special meeting of the congregation were approved as presented.

Treasurer’s Report - See written report. Committees have done an excellent job limiting expenditures in response to a deficit budget. Our AG Edwards account continues to do well, helping to offset our need to tap into the principal this year.

Collector’s Report - Pledge cards for next year need to be returned as soon as possible so preparations for the new budget can begin.

Pastor’s report - 1] Jim has been busy making numerous visitations. With many of the administrative tasks that he needed to tend to accomplished, he looks forward to time for more visitations. Please give him a call if you would like to schedule a time to chat with him. 2] In response to the retreat input, council has discussed ways to reach out to the community without requiring excessive extra work for already busy volunteers. Pastor Jim has plans well underway for the church to host a 60’s style coffee house on the second Friday of the month beginning in January. Doors open at 7 PM and the program is from 8-10PM. There will be a door charge of a few dollars with coffee and dessert available for purchase. Performers of folk and blue grass music have been booked for four months, with plans for additional weeks tentatively scheduled. 3] To further our goals related to spirituality, after the first of the year there will be a monthly session scheduled to discuss / study the book “Celebration of Discipline”.

Committee reports: See written reports

New Business:

  1. The clerk will be responsible for recording any amendments to the official copy of the Constitution and By-laws. Changes will be made on the church computer and backed up on a CD. Now that the procedure for maintaining membership records by has been clarified, it may be appropriate to have the by-laws reflect those procedures. Currently there is a duplication of responsibilities under clerk [p. 8:3G] and membership and evangelism [p. 17 B]

  2. 2007 Retreat: There will be a two day, one night retreat held in the spring with an experienced retreat leader facilitating the event. Three tentative dates were chosen: 1st choice – 5/18-19; 2nd choice – 3/23-24; 3rd choice – 2/2-3. More information to follow.

  3. The council discussed a recent Deaconer article entitled, “Why do Churches Grow?” We focused on three strengths that relate powerfully to numerical church growth: a] caring for children and youth, b] participation in church activities, and c] welcoming new people. The discussion was guides by six questions

  • Do our worship services meet the needs and reflect the preferences of three or more generations?

  • Do we have high quality, inspirational worship services?

  • Do we offer a broad range of programs and activities mirroring the diverse interests of current and potential members?

  • Do we assist people who desire a deeper connection to God and are motivated to grow spiritually?

  • Do our decision-making processes enable frank discussion of differences while minimizing conflict?

  • Do our members agree on the central purpose and mission focus of the congregation?

Closing prayer was offered by Burt Goodrich.

Respectfully submitted,
Janet Goodrich, Clerk

She explained that it contains information on 251 individuals and 67 families and includes such information as address, phone number, birthday, date joined, membership status, etc. Marcie is able to generate reports, lists and mailing labels as needed by church committees. An example is a list of families with Sunday School children used for sending a Rally Day letter. She emphasized that congregation members should give her changes in writing as the data has to be updated in three personal computers.

Board of Trustees
October 10, 2006

The meeting came to order at 7:10 pm with Norman May, Frens Zwart, Larry Kabat, Jane Hannon, Jim Melhorn, Cynthia Childs, and Nancy Bogar present. Jim opened the meeting with a prayer. Secretary’s and Treasurer’s reports were accepted as presented.

Committee Reports:

  • Stewardship: Pledge letter and cards were mailed out the beginning of October. So far response has been slow. People who have not responded by the end of October will receive a phone call by the collector.

Old Business:

  1. Parsonage – A motion was made and approved to replace basement windows, install a new sump pump, and replace an electric outlet and start on digging out window wells for a total expenditure up to $800. Part B of the motion was to continue and finish the necessary repair work in the spring, which will be paid out of the 2007 budget.

New Business:

  1. Safe in closet - Motion was made and approved to go to council requesting permission to dispose of safe. A locksmith will be called to open safe.

  2. Council – Council is very serious about decluttering Church. They have asked every group to go through their “stuff” and throw things away.

  3. Fundraiser – An idea of a town wide yard sale was suggested. The Church would sell “spaces” on an area map, which people would pick up at our Church on the day of the sale. We could sell coffee, donuts, sandwiches, etc. Trustees thought it would be a very good spring event and an easy one to carry out.

Meeting adjourned at 8:20 pm. Next meeting will be Tuesday, November 14, 2006.

Respectfully submitted, Nancy Bogar, Secretary

Extras From the Editor and any Articles

The only time that being "close" counts is with horseshoes, grenades - and friendships.




"Superficiality is the curse of our age...."

In the twenty years since its publication, Celebration of Discipline, a book by Richard J. Foster, has helped over a million seekers discover a richer spiritual life infused with joy, peace, and a deeper understanding of God. Hailed by many as the best modern book on Christian spirituality, Celebration of Discipline explores the "classic Disciplines," or central spiritual practices, of the Christian faith. Along the way, Foster shows that it is only by and through these practices that the true path to spiritual growth can be found.

Pastor Jim will be leading a group of willing participants on a year-long spiritual journey, using Celebration of Discipline as a guide book. In a series of monthly meetings, beginning in January 2007, we will explore Foster's book and begin to integrate Spiritual practices into our daily lives.

Dividing the Disciplines into three movements of the Spirit, Foster shows how each of these areas contribute to a balanced spiritual life. The inward Disciplines of meditation, prayer, fasting, and study offer avenues of personal examination and change. The outward Disciplines of simplicity, solitude, submission, and service help prepare us to make the world a better place. The corporate Disciplines of confession, worship, guidance, and celebration bring us nearer to one another and to God.

Each gathering will include a conversation with Foster, recorded on DVD, as well as discussion, practical guides to implementing the Disciplines, and time for fellowship as we grow together spiritually and emotionally.

Foster provides a wealth of examples demonstrating how these Disciplines can become part of our daily activities--and how they can help us shed our superficial habits and "bring the abundance of God into our lives." He offers crucial new insights on simplicity, demonstrating how the biblical view of simplicity, properly understood and applied, brings joy and balance to our inward and outward lives and "sets us free to enjoy the provision of God as a gift that can be shared with others." The discussion of celebration, often the most neglected of the Disciplines, shows its critical importance, for it stands at the heart of the way to Christ. Celebration of Discipline will help Christians everywhere to embark on a journey of prayer and spiritual growth.

We are looking for at least six people willing to embark on this rewarding journey. We'll be reaching out to the community as well, advertising this opportunity for spiritual growth especially to those who might consider themselves 'Spiritual' without being 'Religious'. This will not be an attempt to convert or coerce anyone, but will simply be an opportunity to invite and engage with those who may not be reached by our regular Sunday morning worship, those people with a spiritual hunger who are wary of organized religion.

So how do you get started?

1. Let Pastor Jim know you are interested. You can call or email the church office or speak with him personally.

2. Buy the book. Celebration of Discipline by Richard J. Foster is available in most bookstores, or you can purchase it online through www.Amazon.com (where it is also available used at a reduced price).

3. Tell a friend or a neighbor, and invite them to come along. We need a minimum of six people to make this work, but wouldn't it be a lot much more fun with 16, or 26, or more?

4. Save the date: Tuesday, January 23, at 7 pm. We'll start things off, see who's interested, establish a regular meeting time and place, and begin our journey together. Hope to see you there!

Some praise and comments about Celebration of Discipline

Madeleine L'Engle - "If everybody in the country could read-and heed-this book, what a difference it would make to the planet."

Brian D. McLaren, author of A New Kind of Christian  -  "Foster has challenged us to see Christian faith. as a life of spiritual transformation."

Lauren Winner, author of Girl Meets God  -  "Foster has taught me more about prayer and living faithfully than just about any other living author."

Dallas Willard, author of The Spirit of the Disciplines and The Divine Conspiracy  -  "Celebration of Discipline has quietly asserted itself in the lives of multitudes around the globe, and has taken its place as a guide to the uplands of the spiritual life for the late twentieth century. Everywhere I go I meet those whose lives have been changed by encountering it. It places us on the path of life with those who have succeeded in walking with Jesus in every circumstance and shows us accessible patterns of action through which interaction with his Kingdom is assured to us. This is the secret of its power. If you wish to know in your self the reality of the gracious life of God seen in the Bible, you may find no better counselor than Richard Foster."

Ronald J. Sider, executive director, Evangelicals for Social Action  -  "The best modern book on Christian spirituality. . . No other book apart from the Bible has been so helpful to me in the nurturing of my inward journey of prayer and spiritual growth."

Eugene H. Peterson, author of Leap Over a Wall  -  "Like a child exploring the attic of an old house on a rainy day, discovering a trunk full of treasure and then calling all his brothers and sisters to share the find, Richard J. Foster has 'found' the spiritual disciplines that the modern world stored away and forgot, and has excitedly called us to celebrate them. For they are, as he shows us, the instruments of joy, the way into mature Christian spirituality and abundant life."

About the Author
Richard J. Foster, a Quaker, is the author of several bestselling books, including Freedom of Simplicity and Prayer: Finding the Heart's True Home, which in 1993 was Christianity Today's Book of the Year and won the Gold Medallion Award from the Evangelical Christian Publishers' Association. He is the founder of Renovare, an infra-church movement committed to the renewal of the church in all her multifaceted expressions. He lives with his wife, Carolynn, in Denver, Colorado.
