Shoes News
Theres still work to do...
We've come so far. We're doing much better. It's not like it was 50 years
ago!
You hear these sorts of remarks when we're talking about prejudice and
race relations in our country. And then along comes a reminder that
we've still got a long way to go. I was amazed (in a bad way) at the
report that Hank Aaron still receives hate mail for breaking Babe Ruth's
homerun record way back in 1974. Back then, as he was approaching
the record, he received a ton of hate mail and newspapers reportedly
kept obituaries ready in case he was murdered before and after he broke
the record. It just doesn't seem possible. Now, as they celebrate the
40th anniversary of that event, the hatred starts up anew.
Earlier this week, our peace was broken again by hatred and violence. A
man, who has a long history of hatred and an association with white
supremacist organizations fired into a crowd in front of two Jewish
Community Centers. As he sat in the back of the police car he could be
heard to yell, "Heil Hitler!". It seems so unreal, so impossible that there
could exist that level of hatred in this day and age. But it's there. For
some people, it's bubbling just below the surface.
What can we do about it? It's easy to feel helpless, after all, our reach
doesn't go very far. But we are called by God and instructed by Jesus to
live lives that are based on love. I think that means that we ought to go
beyond just not causing harm. It's not enough for us to simply refrain
from words and actions that come from prejudice and hatred. I believe
that we are to be proactive in our efforts to reverse and eliminate
prejudice and hatred. We need to speak up when we see and hear
people who harbor ill will towards others because of their religion, race,
ethnicity, sexual orientation or gender expression.
The time for silence has long passed. Jesus lifted up examples of
kindness from those who were considered unworthy and outsiders - the
Good Samaritan. He purposely challenged the prejudice and hatred of
his day, including the outcasts, spending time with the rejected, spending
a few days in a Samaritan village (thus sleeping under their roof and
eating at their table). He rejected the notion of clean and unclean. His
life reflected the all encompassing grace and acceptance of God.
This is not a message youre reading for the first time from me. This, as
you are well aware by now, is one of the major themes of my ministry.
And yet, it hasn't made all that much of a difference. It has changed
me, hopefully it has changed a few other people. But there's still so
much to be done... as long as there is a person feeling the sting of
rejection and hatred, our work continues.
Our work is nothing less than changing the world. I don't think we're
near being finished, do you?
We are called to do the work of reconciliation and love. Join me...

Heart Disease in Women
Heart disease is one of the
leading causes of death in
women across t he worl d.
Wo m e n e x p e r i e n c e
c a r d i o v a s c u l a r d i s e a s e
differently from men, mainly
due to differences in heart and
blood vessel size. Hormonal
changes contribute to the difference as well. Women
experience different symptoms and require different
treatment than do men. The main focus of prevention and
treatment for both men and women is in lifestyle
management which involves making healthy changes to diet
and activity level, plus reducing risk factors by quitting
smoking, controlling body weight, and exercising regularly.
Heart disease is often under-recognized by both women
and their health care providers, because women believe
that the major cause of their death is cancer. Heart disease
is still in large part considered a male disease. Research
and clinical practice is mainly focused on men. Lately,
however, a major shift is occurring for better recognition of
the importance of heart disease in women, that heart
disease is indeed gender specific. There is a growing
awareness of differences in risk factors, treatment,
preventative strategies, and prognosis of the disease in
women.
Women experience symptoms of heart problems on average
ten years later than men. The prevalence of angina in
women over age 60 is higher than compared to men.
Coronary heart disease in women frequently presents as
angina, while in men it more frequently presents as a
myocardial infarction. The risk of sudden death is the same
in both cases. There are significant differences between
men and women in the frequency, type and quality of
symptoms. Symptoms for women i ncl ude sl eep
disturbances, fatigue, nausea, and shortness of breath.
Other typical symptoms in women are chest pain or
discomfort, sweating, arm or shoulder pain. Women tend
to present less often with symptoms of angina than men.
Significant progress has been made in treating cardio
vascular disease in women which includes management or
prevention of diabetes, blood pressure and cholesterol
lowering medications, lifestyle changes, and education.
Always be in touch with your health care provider on a
regular basis by being aware of your individual health issues
and reporting any conditions that seem different or
troubling and that may indicate potential heart problems.
Prayer: May the strength of God pilot us, may the power of
God preserve us, may the wisdom of God instruct us, may
the hand of God protect us this day and evermore. Amen
(Patrick of Ireland).

Nurses Notes
Disposables are NOT Disposable!
Did you know there was a very deliberate marketing
campaign to consumers right after World War II? The
message was this: We can make your lives easier. We can
make things faster for you. You wont have to wash things
anymore. You can just throw them away.
And, what is the result? We have created a throwaway
society. We dont fix it. We throw it away. We dont wash it.
We buy disposables.
Here at First Christian Church, Bellingham, we are rebelling.
We are fixing and washing. We are not contributing to the
mountains of refuse and floating piles of garbage in our
oceans. There will be times we will need to use disposables
and recyclable items. But, when we can use the real
thing, we will do so. When we can buy recycled products,
we will do that, as well. And when we can go electronic,
instead of print, well do that, too.
Why? Because Gods first command was to care for this
earth. Were doing our very best.
Do You Know Your Shepherd?
Yes, you know the Good Shepherd who watches over you day and night. But, did you know each of us have a
shepherding elder who prays for us and tends to us in times of joy and sorrow? Here are the 2014 Shepherding Lists.

Youre Invited to the Interfaith Coalition
Choir Festival
Enjoy a concert of spiritual music by attending the
Interfaith Coalition Choir Festival on Saturday, May 10 at
1:00 p.m. at Church of the Assumption, 2116 Cornwall
Ave. in Bellingham. Our church choir will be performing
with 11 other choirs. Individual performances by each
choir will culminate in the performance of two
compositions by a combined choir of over 200 voices.
Each year, the Interfaith Coalition choir festival offers an
opportunity for singers and audience alike to rejoice in
the voices of our many congregations. An offering to
benefit Interfaith Coalition programs, which provide
homes, healthcare and shelter for all, will be gratefully
accepted.
Socks on the Street Needs You
Please remember that even
though the weather is getting
better, our neighbors who live
on the streets of Bellingham
and Whatcom County still need
clean, dry socks on their feet.
Thank you for your past
support of this ministry for the
CAST program but there
continues to be a need for your
donations of socks into the SOS bin in the Fellowship Hall
or if youd rather donate money, thats fine too.

Thank you from Interfaith Coalition!
Dear Friends at First Christian Church:
Your congregational gift of the red cedar potting table helped to make the Interfaith Coalition Hope Auction a tremendous
success. It raised $600 in our live auction. Thank you very much. The auction proceeds allow us to deliver hope to our
most vulnerable neighbors. Hope in the form of a safe house for a struggling family. Hope in the form of healthcare for
those without the means to pay for it. Hope in the form of warm shelter on a cold night for those with no place to stay.
Congregational gifts are traditionally some of the most popular items in our silent and live auctions. This year was no
exception. Its fun to see how members of a congregation work together to create a gift they think will be attractive and
generate active bidding. What also makes our auction such a success is the involvement of individuals within your
congregation who donate items, such as services, dinners, or crafts, and then who attend our event and bid generously.
Your congregation was well represented.
For the efforts of your congregation as a whole, as well as the individual efforts of your members all made generously,
with compassion for some of the most vulnerable people in our community were grateful.
In Gods love,
Laura Harker
The Place Looks Lovely!
Thank you to Darleen Page,
who hired window cleaners
to clean the outside of the
chur ch wi ndows - an
unbelievably massive job,
which none of us wanted to
take on.
Thank you to Jane Kletka
and Ann Hall, who hired
gardeners to work on the
planters in the parking lot.
Thank you to Jane Kletka
and Bruce Radtke, who have spent COUNTLESS hours
gardening around this place, pulling weeds and planting
beautiful flowers in our garden beds.
Thank you to Elise and Warren King, who stopped by one
afternoon to take on the mess on our playground and
made it safe and secure for our children, once again.
Thank you to Betty and Charles Schmidling for their work
in the Disciples House Garden and to John Riseland who
consistently keeps that place in such good shape.
Thank you to all those who stayed after church on our
clean up day and helped with the spring cleaning. It was a
massive job getting into all the nooks and crannies around
here and your assistance is greatly appreciated: Bob
Fisher, Sandy Grant, Linda Heyne, Tamalyn Kralman,
Connie Page, Chuck Page, Darleen Page, Bruce Radtke,
Brenda Riseland, Betty Schmidling, Charles Schmidling,
Gary Shoemaker, Mary Ann Teeters. (And anyone else we
may have missed.)
And thank you to all the little church mice who sneak in at
various times to vacuum, dust, empty trash cans, and take
care of the many tasks that need to be done but who get
no kudos, no awards, and certainly no pay. But, you do
get our love!
Do You Know Luke?
Traditionally, the author of
this gospel has been seen as
primarily interested in those
marginalized by society:
women, children, the sick,
the poor, tax collectors,
sinners, and Gentiles. But,
Vanderbilt professor Amy-Jill
Levine challenges us to examine this more closely. She
asks, marginal to what?
The women in this gospel are free to travel.
Children, of utmost value in Jewish culture, have parents
and caregivers who love them so much they seek Jesus
healing and blessing.
The sick are presented as having caring social networks.
The Jewish system mandated care for the poor.
Dr. Levine writes, To regard Jesus, appropriately, as caring
for women, children, the sick and the poor, embeds him
within Judaism rather than separates him from it.
And, there might be another mistake we make as we read
this gospel. Levine notes that Luke depicts the synagogue as
a place of violence, details Israels constant failures while
highlighting the fidelity of Gentiles and Samaritans, and
portrays the Pharisees quite harshly.
Constructive criticism is a tricky thing. The ancient
prophets criticized people in order to help them become
right with God. Levine explains that Jesus criticisms against
his fellow Jews were in that tradition.
Now, take those words of Jesus, the words he spoke to his
fellow Jews, in order to help them; take those words, put
them in the hands of a Gentile writer who did not know
Jewish ways and give them to Gentile readers, who do not
know Jewish ways. What happens?
To learn more about the Gospel of Luke and all the people
about whom he wrote, talk to Tamalyn or pick up a copy of
Dr. Amy-Jill Levines The Jewish Annotated New Testament.
