MISSION IS ABOUT RELATIONSHIPS

My call to ministry was very much developed in serving others in the name of Christ. I did this often as a teen on mission trips that involved lots of painting and hammering. As my call to ministry has developed, my own discipleship has grown and so has my understanding of mission and serving others....

Dark Places

elevision today is filed with zombies, witches and all kinds of violent maniacs. They have even revived the old story of the headless horseman and turned it into a new series. But none of those stories are stranger than the story of a man named Legion, found in the fifth chapter of Mark. Among the tombs… At night… It sounds like something out of a Stephen King horror novel! Jesus crosses over the Sea of Galilee to get away from the crowds pressing in on every side. They meet a storm at sea, and Jesus calms the storm and the hearts of the frightened disciples. But no sooner do they arrive on the other side, than they are confronted with a raving lunatic, a madman who lived in an ancient graveyard and spent his time threatening passersby and cutting himself with stones. Scary… Remember how the story begins? As soon as the boat reached the opposite side of the Sea, there comes to Jesus “a man with an unclean spirit, who lived among the tombs” (v.2). That is an accurate detail, for the tombs were an accustomed haunt of evil spirits, according to ancient belief. “No one could bind

The church of Jesus Christ is called to go to the dark places and seek the lost. him any more, even with a chain” (Vs. 3-4). What more perfect picture of a futile attempt to deal with a social problem by force? It hasn’t been too many years since we were doing the same thing. We still put people with problems - the sick, the elderly, and the mentally disturbed, out of sight. “Out of sight, out of mind.” we say - and quickly shunt the world’s Page 2 I ChurchoftheServant.com

unfortunates aside. But Jesus does not. “What have you to do with me, Jesus, Son of the most high God?” (v.7). The demented man cries out. Again we have a standard question in the demonology of the time. In the Gospels the demons are pictured as being scared stiff of the power of Jesus Christ. They try to get away from Him as fast as they can! This may sound quaint to us, but I would suggest that in a deeper sense it is a question that has been put to Jesus by individuals and societies again and again. “What have you to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth?” Jesus asks the unclean spirit, “What is your name?” To know one’s name is to know much about the individual. It is to get to know the other in a personal way. And the man’s reply has given a phrase to our English language: “My name is Legion.” The word legion is borrowed from Latin and refers to an army unit of four to six thousand men. This guy is in real trouble. Jesus commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. It did. Now when you first read the story you might think it’s just another story about Jesus healing someone. But read it more carefully. Jesus is showing his followers what their work will be. The Church of Jesus Christ is called to go to the dark places and seek the lost. When you turn your pledge card in October 27 you are committing yourself to follow Jesus into the dark places of this word. That is why Jesus took the disciples to a graveyard - to reveal their mission to be light in the dark places. It’s our mission too! Dr. Robert Gorrell Senior Minister

MISSION IS ABOUT RELATIONSHIPS

Missions

Continued from Cover...

My role as the minister coordinating the mission ministries here at Church of the Servant has been a large contributing factor to this development. I remember the first time I came into the Celebration Center and saw the statue of Jesus with a basin preparing to wash the feet of his disciples, and how excited I felt that I was to be one who helps this church live out its name and identity in the tangible ways of serving. Over these last three years, I have humbly watched as many of you have said yes and served in extraordinary ways. One of those ways that has blossomed in our congregation has been Whiz Kids. Whiz Kids is a mentoring program in which we have participated now for two school years. Jolene Ingram with student Our members tutor the children of Edgemere Elementary every Monday at Wesley United Methodist Church, located at 25th and Classen Blvd. Over these last two years, I have had the privilege of seeing our members engage not only in a commitment to a student’s academic well-being, but also in their life. One of those stories this year really taught me about unconditional love. Jolene Ingram, and Lisa and Jesse Boone were paired with two sisters to be their mentors. They have not only listened to these girls read each week, but every week when they delivered them home after Whiz Kids, they engaged with their family. The family left New Orleans after hurricane Katrina with nothing but the clothes on their back. They made their way here to Oklahoma City and have struggled to start over. Jolene and her husband Dale and Lisa and Jessie entered into this family to get to know them, hear their stories and began to pray about ways God would lead them to help this family make a better life for themselves. Lisa began addressing practical needs like transportation, new housing, and building a relationship with the girls’ mother. Dale and Jolene began to do research on what services were available to them and taking the

children for outings. Dale taught them how to fish. The journey over this last year with this family has had its challenges and I have watched these faithful servants struggle with actions, decisions and attitudes. Yet, when the hard moments came, they would step back to consult God so that they could step forward into the relationship with this family. Sometimes, mission is writing a check to buy a car seat or a school uniform. Sometimes, mission is painting a house or planting a garden. Sometimes, it is tutoring a child and visioning a future for them that they have yet to imagine. The church needs people who will do all these things. But always, mission is living life alongside people and pointing them to Christ. Mission is believing that someone is worth helping, worth redeemi n g ‌ w o r t h Dr. Robyn Goggs with husband John giving yourand children Noah, Daisy, and Julia. self and your Savior. Someone believed in me. Every day I want to believe in others and demonstrate it in real ways that point them to Christ. My family continues to be inspired by the people with which we go to church here at Church of the Servant. My children are learning how to live for Christ in their Sunday school classes and also in the way that our church shows them how to serve others. For that I am so grateful. This church is shaping my family for the present and the future. We have many opportunities to do good things for others with our money. We know there are many needs and much good being done for others in great organizations and ministries outside the church. We try to do all the good we can, with what we have. Yet we always chose our church first in our giving because we believe God is using our church to change lives, ours and others, in profound ways.

Women Queen for a Day Saturday, November 16 Church of the Servant, along with the Single Parent Support Network, will be hosting “Queen for a Day”, which is a day of learning and support for single mothers.

Our hope is that we will have participants from this church. Sponsoring women this day who are connected to Church of the Servant is a great way to participate. Sponsorship of a woman for the day is $125. More and more, we are made aware of single parents in this church that need and want support in this very important role they are playing. We need volunteers - to care for children in shifts throughout the day, donating items for giveaways, and being available on November 16.

irst of all, it’s an honor for me to address you on behalf of Middle School Ministries. I have been thinking of an eloquent way to express to you how this ministry has impacted our family, and each time I think about it, I get emotional. It is easy to see why Church of the Servant means so much to Todd and me. But when I see our girls growing to love and “root in” to Church of the Servant, it takes emotion to a different level. Hillary and Megan, with Rachel to follow, have already had the blessings of youth ministries poured into them on Sundays, Wednesdays, camps, Triple Play, and, for Hillary, Confirmation. This is the time in their lives when their faith becomes their own. At

Church of the Servant, the Nursery and Children’s ministries laid the foundation; now the real work begins. With the support of Jenna and staff creating faith-building activities and opportunities, my girls have a Faith family that they are developing for themselves. THEY are taking ownership of their walk with Christ and our Middle School Ministries provides them with the support they need. Words will never express my gratitude, and Todd’s as well, for the time and dedication our staff gives to the Middle school kids. When someone loves and cares for my children, they have my FULL support. Thank you!!! Andi Neaves

Why I Love Choir My dog and I just love choir. Now I know you’re asking, what? A dog in choir? Yes, and she is probably the best-churched dog also. Only specially-trained dogs are so honored to be in the choir loft on Sunday mornings, as well as in choir practice on Wednesday nights. My guide dog is all of the above. She is very excited on Sunday to listen to the Scripture reading; however, she takes a nap during the sermon. And she loves communion, as there are always bread crumbs on the floor and she gets the privilege of licking those crumbs up—especially when the minister’s name is Tim. Anyone can sing in the choir. It only takes a will to pour your heart out to God. I used to be able to read music, but due to my blindness, I just know the notes, memorize the words and practice through recordings. I always make sure that I am blending my voice with those singing around me. Many people have helped me tremendously through this process. I have an angel or two that sit by me in the soprano section; these angels kindly nudge me when Chuck directs us to come in

at a certain time. And I also receive a nudge if we are to cut off a note at a certain time or hold a note a little longer. The choir is a very close-knit family. We all have the love of God, so we put forth the effort to serve together, pray together, sing together, laugh together, and yes, sometimes cry together. Isn’t that what families do? If my dog Jamie could speak, I think she would say, “Chuck, our choir director, LOVES DOGS, so he loves me. Every Wednesday I get to see all of my Mom’s friends. Everyone talks to me, sometimes pets me when my mom lets them, and sometimes I even get a treat! Then my role is to curl up on my dog bed and quietly listen to what the choir is practicing for Sunday and the songs they are learning for future performances.” Please come and be a part of our choir family. If I can sing in the choir, anyone can sing in the choir!!

During the last week of October, you will receive an estimate of giving commitment card in the mail. On a practical level, we ask our members to turn in estimate of giving cards each year so that our Finance Committee is able to set an accurate ministry budget for the coming year. This allows us to make the most of every dollar given to the church. On a personal level, the commitment card is an opportunity for you to spend time in prayer and reflection, considering what offering you would make to God through our church in the coming year. Please be watching for the mailing to come the last week of October. Then fill out the card and bring it with you to worship on Sunday, October 27.

Pledge Sunday October 27

We thank you for your generous acceptance of stewardship and pray you may find the level of giving that is right for you as you progress in your journey of faith and commitment. Your pledges and contributions are a critical part of how we can make a difference in our church, our community, and our world.

Adult Join us at PRIME TIME!

On Thursday, October 19 at 10:30 a.m. in Community Hall, we will welcome sculptor extraordinaire, Bob Willis, as he sculpts a bust of Christ with a crown of thorns while his wife, Lynn, sings of His sacrifice on the cross. This blend of music, testimony, Scripture, and sculpting presents the Gospel of Jesus Christ in a dynamic and unforgettable manner. Bob’s unique and fascinating style of sculpting is a reflection of how God desires to mold and fashion His children into His image. Lynn’s gift in music is evident as she beautifully blends the message in song with Bob’s sculpting of Christ. Following this exciting program and a short business meeting, we will be served a delicious meal of rosemary chicken, rice pilaf, baby carrots, tossed salad, rolls and peach cobbler. If you are unable to stay for the meal, cost of the program only is $2.00, but we strongly encourage you to stay for the meal and outstanding fellowship with old and new friends for a total cost of $10.00.

Get to Know Me... I have been attending Church of the Servant for as long as I can remember. I never really went for the Godly aspect, but because my parents made me go every morning. That all changed when I started going to Student Ministries. I was immediately welcomed by people of all ages. All my friends were there and it was just a fun place to be. Sunday school started to get more serious, but I was fine with that. I started to go more because I enjoyed learning about Christ, but still because several of my friends were there. This spring I went through Confirmation. I really became committed to church and went because it was my choice. Now, for me, all of Student Ministries is one big family and I go to church because I love building my faith in the Lord. I have become committed to reading my Bible at night and pray-

Get to Know Me... I have been involved with student ministries for over five years now. Over the course of those years my youth group has pushed me in my relationship with Christ and taught me lessons I never thought I would learn. Just knowing that I have such an awesome youth group puts a smile on my face. They are there for me when I doubt and they are there for me when I am strong in my faith. It brings me peace knowing wherever I am, I can always count on my youth group to be there, even if I do not want them to be. Sometimes I just need someone to make me laugh and they’re the first ones to do it. I cannot thank them enough for helping me become who I am today. Makenzie Dean
