11/16/14
by Joanne Ligtenberg
We are really excited
about this new ministry at Messiah and
are looking forward
to our first Soup-er
Saturday to be held
on December 6th
from 11:30 am - 1:00
pm in our Fellowship Hall. FREE soup and
sandwiches will be served to both our Messiah
family and people in the surrounding community. Sound like kind of a big task? Well with
so many of God's willing hands to help out it
won't be. There are a variety of tasks and I'm
sure that there is something for you. We will
need hosts/hostesses both by the outside door
and the downstairs door as well as table
hosts/hostesses. People for set up, clean up,
cooks, kitchen helpers, waitresses, drink pourers, smiley faces -- all will be needed. We will
be asking for food donations and monetary
donations as well as your donations of time.
There will be signup sheets near the coffee table, so check it out. After all, many hands
make light work!

The Herald
It is my prayer that this focus has been a blessing to you as we anticipate another year of
God’s presence among us in this place.
Dear Friends,
Thanks to those of you who have already
turned in your time and talent sheets as well as
your pledge cards. Your prayerful reflection
on God’s blessings on your life and how you in
turn will respond through the use of your time,
talent and treasure is very much appreciated.
Peace
Pastor Aileen
by Sandy Moncrief
We worship a God who has indeed blessed us
richly with every good thing. In this season I
am incredibly thankful for the leadership of
this congregation, the staff who serves faithfully and the many ministers who proclaim Christ
crucified and risen in both word and deed. I
am also thankful for the work of the stewardship team under the direction of Wayne
Reabold.
These incredible folks meet for
months in advance to thoughtfully plan out a
program that invites us to consider stewardship as a way of life grounded in the blessings
of the God who created us, the sacrifice of
Christ who redeems us and the Spirit who inspires us to works that bless the world. (I don’t
often single out folks for thanks, but Wayne
completes his term as Stewardship chair this
year and he’s done a great job!)
October 2, 2014:
This year as we have explored Stewardship as
love we have been invited to
reflect on the love of
Christ in our lives as
well as the love that
we have received in
this place. Every time
we bring a child to the
font, we are reminded that
at one time the Body of
Christ promised to pray for
us and care for us. The Body
of Christ in this place continues to do so for one another in
more ways than I can count over the course of
a year.

President’s Letter
In a recent conversation, a friend shared the
value of the support they have received in a
twelve step program.
Sponsors in twelve
step programs have their own personal experience with addiction that motivates them to
help others. They understand the importance
of helping others following the same path. As
Christians, do we feel the urgency and importance to help others find and live a life
with Christ? God calls us to share the Good
News of God’s love and forgiveness in Jesus
Christ, not only as a duty but as a joy, to help
others find the peace that we each enjoy in
relationship with God.
Currently many of us are studying “Unbinding the Gospel” to reflect on the impact of the
Gospel in our own lives and become more
comfortable in describing the importance and
impact of our relationship with God. Reflecting on God’s grace in our own lives is also a
powerful motivation to encourage others in
their own relationship with God.
As we plan for 2015, a small group has been
meeting to pray for our planning process. As
anticipated, they are hearing from God and discerning a message of peace about the coming
year. They are also experiencing the tremendous power and encouragement of sharing
with each other God’s revelation in prayer.
Our health as a congregation is based on our
relationships with God and with each other. I
pray that as we wind down the church year
and prepare for Advent, we will each seek out
ways to grow in our relationships with God
and with each other through worship, study,
and service. “And let us consider how we
may spur one another on toward love and
good deeds.” (Heb. 10:24)
In Christ’s peace,

WORSHIP VISION STATEMENT
Gathered as a community of God’s children,
celebrating our redemption through the cross
of Christ, with hearts and minds open to hear
God’s word, we anticipate a fresh encounter
with the Holy Spirit. We know God is alive
and among us, engaging us, and speaking to
us whenever we lift our voices together in
praise. Through our enthusiastic participation in music, liturgy, prayer, and sacraments
we create a place where people are comfortable to express the full range of human emotion. We recognize that God is responding
with comfort, encouragement, reassurance,
forgiveness, blessing, challenge, excitement,
hope, power, inspiration, and relationship empowering us to carry the good news of the
Gospel into the world.
STRATEGIC GOALS
1.
Create a sacred space leading to a fresh
encounter with the Holy Spirit
2.
Increase participation in worship by
providing ways to make disciples of all
ages more comfortable in worship leadership roles
3.
Equip our disciples with a language and
spirit to carry the Gospel story from the
Sanctuary into the world
The meeting of the Worship Planning Team
took place late in October. We continued discussion of worship for the Christmas Season
and Epiphany.
Fall worship has been amazing so far!! The
Fall Festival outdoor service was wonderful -
Page 4
thanks especially to the Reach Out Team, Pastor Aileen, Willie, and our musicians! New
folks are participating in worship - which is
terrific! - and there is a most enthusiastic group
of children each week for Pastor’s Children’s
Message! At the October Hub meeting, it was
told that there is so much joy among our children in worship - from the Children’s Message
to Sunday School to returning to the service for
Holy Communion! How great is that!! Thanks
to all who make this possible!!!
As the Fall progresses, we will celebrate All
Saints Sunday on November 2nd, Christ the
King on November 23rd (the last Sunday of the
Church Year), and Thanksgiving Day on November 27th at 10:00 am - details may be found
elsewhere in this newsletter about Thanksgiving Day.
The Season of Advent begins on Sunday, November 30th. Advent is the season just before
Christmas - a season of hope, of anticipation, of
preparation, of waiting. A very special musical
presentation will be given on the Third Sunday
in Advent, December 14th. Choirs from Messiah and Concord will join together to present
Advent music at Messiah at 10:00 am and at
Concord at 4:00 pm. Everyone is welcome and
invited to both of these Advent celebrations!
Hanging of the Greens will be the Fourth Sunday in Advent, December 21st. Watch for details of this and all the special worship opportunities to be offered in the next weeks!
Thanks to everyone for your continued support of Messiah Lutheran Church through your
presence at worship and other activities. Your
comments and ideas are always welcome and
encouraged. Please do not hesitate to let me or
Pastor Aileen know of your questions or concerns! We are a team! We need you!! See you
in church!

Faith Formation
by Pastor Mary Johnson
Sunday Evening Small Groups:
New Groups in November
A new round of groups will be starting in
November. Stay tuned for more information.
You will be able to sign up in the narthex (cube
wall) or just show up any Sunday evening at 6:45
pm. Come at 6:00 pm for supper, too, if you’d
like. New participants are always welcome.
Have you read a book that’s changed your
life? Would you like to share it with others? If
it is faith or Bible-based, and can be read and
discussed in 6 weeks, it might make for a great
small group. Contact Pastor Aileen or Mary
Johnson (225-1259 or maryalee.johnson@gmail.com)
for more information, or if you feel called to
explore this opportunity.

daily lives. We meet in the conference room
8:45-9:30 am Sunday mornings. For info/inquiries/questions, contact Larry Dennis @

Women's Breakfast & Bible Study
Saturday November 15
from 8:30 - 10:00 am in the Conference Room
Our Bible Study "Jesus, Divine
and Human" will meet once
again in November in the
Conference Room and it will
be great to see you all again.
Don't forget to invite your

A Thanksgiving Prayer:
Oh God, when I have food, help me to remember
the hungry. When I have work, help me to remember the jobless. When I have a warm home,
help me to remember the homeless. When I am
without pain, help me to remember those who
suffer. And remembering, help me to destroy
my complacency and bestir my compassion. Make
me concerned enough to help, by word and deed,
those who cry out for what we take for granted.

The SERVICE MINISTRY VISION
We are all God’s children. At Messiah,
we will endeavor to be God’s hands and
feet, serving all of his people.
Using our God given gifts, with thoughtful prayer, commitment, and generosity,
we will provide a variety of services to
meet the needs of the community.
There are lots of activities coming up in
November. Please see the communications
board to sign up or to learn more details. Also,
be sure to look in the Herald for more in-depth
articles. For questions, please contact me (John
Corman) or the project leader.
On November 2nd, we’ll be serving the Sunday
evening meal to the RIT students attending their
Sunday evening service. This year Pr. Justin
Johnson has agreed to take the chaplain job at
RIT for LECM. (Lutheran and Episcopal Campus
Ministries) If you remember when he was at
Messiah, this would be a perfect opportunity to
reconnect with him. This year, Lutheran Campus Ministries has combined with the Episcopal
Campus Ministry to form the Lutheran and
Episcopal Campus Ministries (LECM).

The Coat Drive, Thanksgiving Baskets, and
Feed My Starving Children programs were all
kicked-off in October. The Coat drive will continue through November 23rd, but the sooner
you turn in your unneeded winter clothes, the
sooner they can be used by someone else.
The Thanksgiving Baskets will be assembled
on Friday Nov. 21st and delivered on Saturday,
Nov. 22nd. On those same dates, meals will be
assembled for the Feed My Starving Children
program.
Also in November, Larry Dennis will be starting Operation Christmas Child, and the Angel
Tree will be going up.
On Friday, December 5, Messiah will be hosting a Red Cross Blood drive. Your help and
blood donation will be greatly appreciated!
May everyone have a joyous & blessed
Thanksgiving!
Two Doors Community
Resource Center
by John Corman
(phone: 225-6393 or email:
jcorman@rochester.rr.com)
The Two Doors’ school year is off to a great
start! And Two Doors would really like to accept more students. However, another teacher/site coordinator is needed and more volunteer tutors are also needed. If you are interested or know of anyone who might be interested,
please contact either John Corman or Megan
Bourque at Two Doors, 663-8936.
Two Doors has a great program that complements the Greece School District and provides
assistance that isn’t always available in the
school or at home. As one parent said “The
one-on-one homework assistance has been a
huge benefit for my son.”

Stewardship Report
by Wayne Reabold
This year’s Stewardship
Campaign, “Stewardship
is about Love,” began on
October 19th and will conclude on commitment
Sunday, November 9th.
We have again included an
individual time and talent
report which lists those
ministries that you are either actively participating in or have participated in in the past.
We are asking that you review, update and return this report on the 9th. There are many
opportunities available at Messiah, all of which
welcome new members; so if you are interested in joining a new ministry, please include
your wishes on the report and a member of
that ministry will be contacting you shortly.
During the campaign we have been presenting
messages related to stewardship in the sermons, temple talks, hymns and bulletin inserts.
We have presented a similar message to our
children since they should also share in the
joys of stewardship and helping others. We
are hopeful that the messages presented during the campaign will be helpful in assisting
you in prayerfully considering your commitments to Messiah. We are facing a difficult
challenge, but with everyone’s help and sup-
The Herald
port we can meet this challenge and move forward in sharing God’s message.
Our members continue to share their time, talents and treasures in helping the church, the
community and the world. We are very proud
of this generosity and thank you!
Reach Out
by Joanne Ligtenberg
Our Vision
We extend Christ's love by reaching out with open
arms and hearts. We joyfully welcome all people
into fellowship, service and Christian worship.
Called to be Christ-like disciples we support each
other and care for all people. Inspired by the power
of the Holy Spirit, we serve all in daily life.
The "Unbinding the Gospel"
study has begun and I hope
that many of you signed up to
participate. If you missed out
on the October studies, they
will be offered again in January
with different leaders so be sure
to sign up then as you won't
want to miss it. Not a convenient time? Check
with Pastor Aileen or me and we may be able
to meet your time request.
On the first Saturday in December which is
December 6th we will be hosting Messiah’s
Soup-er Saturday’s FREE Lunch. This will be
available to the congregation and the community from 11:30am - 1:00pm. There will be a
sign-up sheet on the cube wall so that we have
an idea of how many people from our
congregation will be coming and then we will
plan above that number for those coming from
the community. Since this is a first time event
for us we really don't know how many will
attend, but if you do know of someone from
the community that is coming, feel free to put
their name down as well. This will be followed
up by luncheons on the first Saturday of
January, February, March and April - what we
anticipate being the "cold" months of the year.
Page 7
If you would like to help out on a Saturday
please let me know or sign up in the narthex.
This idea came from the Reach Out team but it
will need many hands to make it work and we
are looking at it as a new Ministry at Messiah.
There will be signup sheets in our coffee area
for many of the tasks as well as opportunities
for food and monetary donations. We plan to
do all the cooking at church.
Because we do have a licensed kitchen we do
not need to go to Monroe County for a "food
handler" certificate although Maer Rivera will
be doing a short seminar for anyone that is
planning to work in the kitchen. This will be
held on Friday Nov. 7th from 12:00 – 12:45 pm
in the kitchen. Check the cube wall for a signup sheet.
Once again the Reach Out Team would like to
touch base with all our college age youth and
young adults at Christmas time so we are asking that you contact the church office via the
insert or email Cathy with that information.
Feed My Starving Children
by Pam Nicholls (719) 237-7155
The Mobile Pack date
has been scheduled! It
will be held the
weekend
before
Thanksgiving at Lakeshore Community
Church. Messiah members can participate in
this event in three ways:
1) Groups and individuals age 5 and up can
sign up (form on the communications board)
for their desired session.
2) M&M's candy tubes are available on the
shelf under the communications board. Just
take one home, eat the candy, fill it with
quarters and return by November 16. Give to
Pam Nicholls or place in the designated box on
the shelf under the communications board.
3) Pray, pray, pray for all the starving children
in the world, and for God to bless the work of
our hands as we pack full nutrition meals.

Packing sessions are as follows:
Friday, 11/21,

Contact Pam Nicholls for more information.
Angel Tree Ministry
Once again it is the time of year
when
Messiah
Lutheran
Church partners with Greece
Ele-mentary
Schools
to
provide a little extra joy for
local families in need. Gift
requests for up to $25.00 or
so are submitted to us for students and their
families. These may be for clothing, household
goods, toys, etc. God’s love is showered on the
recipients and the donors alike.
As in the past, the gifts will be given at a party
held in Messiah’s Fellowship Hall in December.
The Angel Tree will be set up in the Narthex with
gift requests attached by Thanksgiving. Gifts are
due back beneath the tree in early December. See
the Sunday bulletin and the Advent issue of the
Herald for exact dates and times.
Musical Musings
by Willie LaFavor
As the days grow shorter and
the nights grow colder, chorister’s minds turn to one
thought—what will the cantata
be this December? This year
Messiah will be sharing the
cantata with Concord Lutheran Church. We
will be doing 5-6 anthems, interspersed with
Advent readings and congregational hymn
singing. Anthems we will be doing include
“Let All Mortal Flesh Keep Silence” by Gustav
Holst and “And the Glory of the Lord” by G. F.
Handel. The cantata will be given on December 14 at the 10:00 am service at Messiah, and
at 4:00 pm on the same day at Concord. Please
mark this date on your calendar for a glorious
day of music making!
If you would like to join the choir for the cantata, we will be rehearsing at the following times:
•
•
•
•
November 5, 8:15-9:00 pm
November 12, 8:15-9:00 pm
November 19, 8:15-9:00 pm
December 3, 8:15-9:00 pm (joint rehearsal
with Concord)
• December 10, 8:15-9:00 pm (joint rehearsal
with Concord)
All rehearsals will take place at Messiah unless
otherwise announced. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me for more
information.
If you have been thinking about joining the
choir, remember that singing in the choir is not
only "heart healthy", but its "soul healthy" as
well. There are no monthly membership fees,
and it's a lot easier on the knees than jogging! I
found this on the internet, so I know it’s true.
I’ll see you in the choir!
Samaritan’s Purse
Operation Christmas Child
by Larry Dennis
We have been blessed
with a modest grant from
Thrivent Financial to help
us increase our participation in Satmaritan Purse's
Operaion Christmas Child.
Some of us will act as a
"Thrivent Action Team" to involve the Children's Sunday School, the Youth Group, the
confirmands, families, and adults in the drive
to collect and pack shoeboxes with the message
of Jesus Christ and quality gifts to be sent overseas to needy children. Many individuals and
families have packed shoeboxes independently in past years. That is GREAT and encouraged. We invite those who have packed and
those who haven't yet to join in this drive to
increase the number of packed shoeboxes we
The Herald
deliver to the local collection site to be distributed this Christmas.
To do this, we will be having the Sunday
School and anyone interested bring in appropriate gifts to stuff in the shoeboxes (non-liquid
health items, school supplies, small toys, accessories like hair bands or sunglasses) on
November 2nd and 16th. We will also collect
completed boxes anytime. Members of the
Action Team will shop for other gifts to supplement the collection effort using part of the
grant money. We will then come together in a
celebration get-together to pack the remaining
boxes and compose personal notes/cards for
inclusion in the boxes. We will watch videos
about how and where the boxes go once they
leave our fellowship hall and share in the excited reactions as children receive them overseas.
SAVE the DATE: Thrivent Action Team/OCC

Our annual winter gear
drive began in October and

There are so many deserving
folks in our community that are in
need of good warm outer clothing
to ward off our icy New York winter weather. As in the past, all donations of new or gently used winter gear are
welcome. 2014 is the fourth year of this ministry and it has grown beyond expectations,
thanks to the generosity of our Messiah members. This year’s drive will continue through
