the

Pastor’s WORD How to Kill God

Recently at worship I offered an invitation to the congregation—one suggested by Andrew Sullivan of New York Magazine in his wonderful essay, “I Used to be a Human Being.” Join me, I said, in taking a “digital sabbath” of 30 minutes once in the next week. Turn off your smartphones. Stop checking your text messages. Just be. I tried following my suggestion later that day, and I have to tell you that I failed—miserably. For the entire 30 minutes I sat on my porch without my phone, thinking of all the things I had to do. I became increasingly anxious, my mind racing from task to task. My failure to sit still was not, however, a total loss. It reminded me how much I have become a digital junkie, “conformed”—as Paul says—“to the world” (Romans 12:2). I am merely an extension of the culture around me, a culture, as Sullivan observes, “of getting things done.” Without exaggeration, I have to confess: I am not free. I am not the person I want to be, nor am I the person I believe God, whose will in Jesus Christ is “abundant life” (John 10:10), calls me to be. The effect of living in a noisy, obsessively busy culture constantly in the grip of “getting things done” extends far beyond my personal discontent. It is the demise of faith. Sullivan writes, “The reason we live in a culture increasingly without faith is not because science has somehow disproved the unprovable, but because the white noise of secularism has removed the very stillness in which it might endure or be reborn.” Sullivan’s observation is not new. Over a century ago, the philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche, Christianity’s fiercest critic, recognized that neither reason nor science, at least exclusively, “killed” God (i.e., contributed to the loss of faith in the modern era). The almighty died instead of neglect as modern Europeans—too busy, too industrious, too distracted—had no time to cultivate a relationship with the divine. Rediscovering God, it turns out, begins with slowing down, taking time to recharge our spiritual instincts. It’s true: I failed at taking a digital sabbath, but I am going to try again. My life is far richer when I connect with God in the “tiny cracks of inactivity,” as Sullivan calls them, that separate one task from the next. I invite you to do the same. Perhaps together, if your experience resonates with mine, God, the deep Silence beneath all the noise, may be “heard” once more.

From the Cantor . . . Together we have provided profound ministry for 14 years glorifying, praising, and worshiping God through music. My most prevalent feeling at this time of announcing my retirement from full time church music and resigning my call at Queen Anne Lutheran is gratitude. This congregation has done well as the primary singer of the song. We were assisted in this effort when we were blessed with our outstanding Wech Pipe Organ and the enhanced Sanctuary acoustics. I have gratitude for all the individuals, all ages, who have stepped forward to be vocal or instrumental leaders of the congregational song. I am forever grateful to each one of you. I am grateful for the Shalom Choir who started making music with me when they were very young and now have a gorgeous high school women’s choral sound. All are such wonderful young women who I am so proud and honored to have had in my life. I am grateful for all the children who have come through the choir and handbell programs; some now have graduated from college! Whether there were two in a choir (Jimmy and Sonia in 2014, bless their hearts!), or eleven as we had on a Sunday last Advent, we have all been blessed by their presence in worship. The hope of gaining a new staff person as Children’s Ministry Coordinator will make the presence of children in our worship more certain, and the choir program stronger. For that I am grateful. I am grateful for this community of faith, for our staff and those from the larger church, our Synod, ALCM (Association of Lutheran Church Musicians) and CG (Choristers Guild) who wrapped their arms and prayers around me and held me close at the time of Roger’s death. My need of time for healing, as well as time to deal with a huge house of belongings after 44 years of marriage has kept me here in the PNW for these last three years. I have taken my time to accomplish a lot and have provided the congregation with leadership after Pastors Wayne and Doug left us. Now it is time for me to be more present for Brita, Nick, Luciana (3), and Christian (1). We are blessed to have each other. I feel ready to retire and focus on my journey’s next phase. In July I bought a condo in Naperville, Illinois and I look forward to getting settled and making it my home. QALC also is positioned well for the next musician leader. May you be blessed with a new Cantor who is a fine organist, worship leader, and choir director for all ages. I wish QALC all the best as you move forward in faith and trust and I will always be grateful for this time in my life at QALC. I will miss worshiping with you. I remain forever grateful! Arletta Anderson Cantor and Deacon

Fair Winds and Following Seas, Arletta, with Love and Gratitude Growing up as a pastor’s kid and then marrying a man who made the Navy his career meant I got pretty good at moving all my life. However, I never got very good at saying goodbye. Those are some of the toughest moments, as friends whom we’ve grown close to and shared so much with, move on. Even then, the sadness is mingled with joy for them as so often they were moving because of an exciting new position or promotion, or looking forward to retirement and civilian life. That’s where we are now with Arletta. There is sadness in saying goodbye because we will miss her, even as we know she is looking forward to a well-deserved retirement near her family. Those of us who are friends on Facebook see the absolute delight on her face when she’s with her grandchildren! Arletta, you have been such a blessing to this congregation! Your ministry here has deeply touched us all, from the generations of cherub choirs, the first now grown up, to the beauty of the mystery and majesty of God’s loving presence and word spoken to us through music and liturgy. Our community of faith would be something other, something lesser, without what you and Roger have meant to it through the years. As a Northern Lights Bible Study sister, I have had the added privilege of sharing our faith and our lives more deeply. Ministry in God’s church is not easy. Perhaps because it matters so much, we have high expectations of those called to minister. And certainly because we are all so very human, congregational life has all the bumps and warts of any family. But it is here that we are called to live out God’s love for us in loving each other and in loving all of God’s creation and creatures. Thank you, Arletta, for fulfilling that call to ministry with love, grace, perseverance, and no small measure of humor. In the Navy, we said farewell with a wish for “fair winds and following seas.” From the time of sailing ships, it is a blessing and a prayer that a dear friend’s journey may be smooth and safe and graced with benevolent protection along the way. With love and gratitude and the happiest wishes for your life in Naperville, we wish you fair winds and following seas, Arletta. May you go with God. Deborah Squires Council President

“Jesus Christ—Yesterday, Today and Forever” The Church’s journey has continually been expressed through music, ranging from hymns and anthems whose roots go back to the early Church, to those that reflect the current time and look to the future. All leave their mark as the Church expresses this truth: Jesus Christ is the same, yesterday, today and forever. Join the National Lutheran Choir in celebrating this rich treasury of music, along with anthems sung by a massed choir of combined local church choirs and congregational hymns. The National Lutheran Choir, under the direction of Dr. David Cherwien, will be touring the Pacific Northwest presenting two unique programs in recognition of the 500th Anniversary of the Reformation. The 64-voice choir, based in Minneapolis, Minnesota, seeks to strengthen, renew and preserve the heritage of sacred choral music through the highest standards of performance and literature.

Inviting Your Sermon Topics •

Have you ever wondered about a particular aspect of faith that you wish you could hear a sermon on? • Do you have a biblical text that you wish you could hear a sermon on? • Is there a faith question that has always bothered you or that you struggle with? This summer, from July 16 through September 3, Pastor Dan is preaching on biblical topics, faith questions or biblical texts that YOU, the members of the congregation, submit. In the narthex please see the box marked Summer Sermon Topics and submit yours. Pastor Dan will take those topics and put a summer schedule together of preaching from those questions, topics, or sermon texts. On many of those Sundays he will also stay around after church for ½ hour or so to continue the conversation with those who would like to grab their coffee and talk further on the subject. The box is in the narthex , so please submit your ideas! 8

It's not too soon to consult your calendars and block out some time to volunteer!

We need drivers for carpools, and women to help with the food. Talk to Sallie Wilson or Cathi Unseth if you have questions about the event or ways to help. Sewing and Service quilting will begin again on Wednesday, August 2 and continue until the second or third week of December. Then we will make plans for the next year. During worship on Sunday, October 22 we will bless the quilts and kits we have finished and prepare them to be sent to the regional InGathering on November 3 & 4. The QALC Women are sponsoring the final Wednesday of our summer Jazz on the Grass event, on August 23. The sign-up sheet is in the narthex if you would like to jump in to help set up, run the grill, serve food, or clean up. The next NW WA Synodical Women’s Meeting will be held Saturday, October 7 at Trinity Lutheran Church in Lynnwood. Please consider attending! Thoughts from Candy about the Women of the ELCA’s Tenth Triennial gathering in Minneapolis: Who did I meet on the street? On the way back to the hotel in Minneapolis at the Bachelor Farmer, I heard this call: “Hey lady.” I looked around—me? “May I have your leftovers? “Me—My leftovers—you want my rhubarb pie?” I said, “Do you like rhubarb pie?” “Oh yes, I’m from Iowa. I love rhubarb pie!” It was a WWJD moment. I had plans for this pie. The hotel had a microwave—it would make a great breakfast (the topping had oatmeal after all). OR we could have it for dessert the next night—the hotel even had ice cream for the top. But wait, I was at a conference reminding me: WWJD? So I asked, “You will eat the pie?” “Oh, yes.” Slowly, I handed it across. A look of total bliss crossed his face. I told him he saved me from myself—after all, I did have a 5K to walk in the morning—but still I yearn for a rhubarb pie with custard in the bottom and a buttery oatmeal crust. (L) Karen McCullough and Candy Mathes at the Tenth Triennial in Minneapolis. (R) Candy thanks those who sponsored her 5K walk to benefit the Women of the ELCA’s new health initiative Raising Up Healthy Women and Girls. 9

And then, all the women I met— from Texas, from Utah, from Sitka, Alaska! What I discovered were women who believed in the love of God and the connection they make through WELCA. Women who are concerned about their families as well as the systems that should be challenged, asking what countercultural, justice-making actions we are being called upon to take. Linda Post Bushkofsky, executive director of Women of the ELCA, summarizes the Gathering with the following: “We are daughters of a troublemaker, Kelly Fryer told us. We are called to follow Jesus’ example of standing with those on the margins, even at great risk to one’s own personal comfort or reputation. Doing that, Fryer reminded us, is to stand side by side with Jesus. “Anew” (The Triennial theme was “All Anew”) is not an event, Leymah Gbowee informed us. It is a process. And Jesus renews us all daily to do his work. It is in working together, not in a silo, that we will bring change to a world plagued by racism, violence and greed. While we Lutheran Christian women are good at mercy, we must move into justice work, Alexia Salvatierra implored. We are called to treat each other as family, exercising both compassion and justice. Being a Christian is not easy or comfortable. If you are comfortable in Jesus, Angela Khabeb warned us, you are doing it wrong. The God of the universe blesses everyone. My continuing prayer for us, both individually and collectively as the organization known as Women of the ELCA, is that we latch onto this “all anew” momentum and work to bring about the change that is so sorely needed in our church, the society and the world.” I challenge you to go with me to the next Triennial in Phoenix, Arizona in 2020. And I am sure I will once again challenge you to sponsor all those who walk for healthy women and children. Your Women’s Committee —Candy Mathes, Pat Sobeck, Lisa Ondrejcek, Sophie Pritchard, Sallie Wilson

From the publisher: After four harrowing years at war, Tom Sherbourne returns to Australia and takes a job as a lighthouse keeper. To this isolated island, where the supply boat comes once a season, Tom brings a young, bold, and loving wife, Isabel. Years later, after two miscarriages and one stillbirth, the grieving Isabel hears a baby’s cries on the wind. A boat has washed up onshore carrying a dead man and a living baby. Isabel insists the baby is a “gift from God,” and against Tom’s judgment, they claim her as their own and name her Lucy. When she is two, Tom and Isabel return to the mainland and are reminded that there are other people in the world. Their choice has devastated one of them . . .

Report from Lutheran Summer Music Camp My name is Mei Smith and recently I attended Lutheran Summer Music at Valparaiso University, Indiana. It was one of the best months of my life. The program helps students to grow both musically and in their faith. A usual day at camp would consist of small ensembles or musicianship, an elective (handbells, musical theatre, church music, etc.) a large ensemble (Choir, Orchestra and Band) morning and evening prayer and lots of practicing. As soon as you arrive everyone is welcoming and open. The community is something that I loved the most. I met some incredible people that I plan on continuing to stay in touch with for a long time. I dearly loved staying at Valpo because the facilities were very nice including the Chapel of Resurrection, where we held evening services. A very special thank you to everyone who supported me both financially and emotionally on my journey. It is something I will never forget and I am already signed up for next year! I would also like to thank Eileen and Mel Piehl for coming to my performances at the end of the camp. All the support and kindness shown means so much to me. —Mei Smith Mei Le Smith (center) with some of the welcoming community she encountered at Lutheran Summer Music Camp.

Room Wanted: Frances Wolfe, one of the former Lutheran Volunteer Corps members who stayed in the Louise Robertson House a couple of years ago, needs to move again. If you have a room to rent or you know someone in Seattle who has an extra room, please contact Frances at: [email protected] Thanks!

Bishop's Message

The Gift of Wonder and Wandering By Bishop Kirby Unti NWWA Synod from the August 2017 edition of The Spirit

One of the gifts that I have received from Dwelling in the Word (a practice of Living Local) is the gift of “wonder.” Dwelling encourages the learner to ask questions of wonder about the biblical text. Wondering brings out the child in us by playing into our imagination. I want to share with you one of my wonderings about the story of the Exodus. “I wonder why it took them forty years to walk from Egypt to Canaan when on foot it should have taken only two weeks? I wonder, “Did they not know the way?” “Did they get really lost at some point?” “Was the destination not known when they took off?” “Did the destination change on them?” My wondering makes sense when I think of other explorers like Lewis and Clark. It wasn’t like the Oregon trail was already on the map and all they had to do was follow the trail. The truth is what makes one a pioneer is when one must find a trail. Think of how many false routes Lewis and Clark must have explored. They would have reached rivers too swift to cross, mountains too steep to ascend, and cliffs that would have stopped them dead in their tracks. Pioneers know all about dead ends and U turns. The Bible calls this wandering. The Israelites wandered in the desert for 40 years. They wandered in the desert because they failed to believe that God would show them the way. My sense is we are living in a new time of wandering. The church is not always clear about where we are headed. We are as likely to depend on how we have always done it as we are to trust that God is doing a new thing. Living Local invites us to be intentional about trying to discern what it is that God is up to - and how we follow the pathway God is laying down. Living Local believes we are being faithful when we experiment, probe, and try out new pathways of being a faithful church. It is a given that we will run into obstacles, have to backtrack at times, and forge routes unplanned for. I would love for the Spirit to stir up in all our ministry sites a much greater sense of wonder and imagination. My hope is we will be willing to try, risk, experiment, and experience what it means to follow God down a new pathway. There is no doubt wondering with God can be hard work but there is a reason the destination is called promised land. The reason is through wondering and wandering we come to learn what it means to trust God with the future.
