Communicants come forward to receive the elements. Those serving Communion will cleanse their hands immediately before serving. On rst Sundays, communicants will rst receive a piece of bread from the pastor and eat it; then communicants will take an empty ceramic individual communion cup, which will be lled by a communion assistant with either wine or grape juice and drink it. Used cups will be collected in baskets on the way back to the pews. On third Sundays, Communicants will rst receive the bread, then dip it into the red wine or the white grape juice, and then eat it.• Worshipers who do not wish to come forward or who wish to not share in the communal bread and wine/juice during the distribution of Holy Communion may request a self-contained, sealed, individual communion kit before worship begins or may bring their own elements.• ALL people are ALWAYS welcome to receive Holy Communion.

6from the pastorBY PASTOR RUSS MYERSJanuary UpdatesMy wife and I served as co-pastors of two rural churches in southern Wisconsin in the late ‘80s. I remember our bishop encouraging Sunday School teachers to imagine every child as a future pastor. By recognizing that we might be raising up the next generation of church leaders, we would see the children dierently. Our attitude and commitment to nurturing their faith would change, the bishop wrote, and we could bring that vision into reality. It’s a powerful message.The memory of the bishop’s message came back to me on December 4 during Katia McDonough’s Point for Pilgrims. A stole was placed around the neck of each child, a visual symbol of their calling. This was no abstract dream of what might happen in the future. There, standing before us were your children — our children — called to proclaim God’s Word, right now. It brought tears to my eyes.Much has changed in the 30+ years since the late ‘80s, and much has remained the same. We continue to teach, guide and mentor the boys and girls among us, nurturing their faith. We believe and trust that some may go on to become pastors, deacons and lay leaders in the church. We also recognize and receive the gifts our young people bring to this community of faith right now.And there’s more. The average age of seminary students has gone up; there are more second-career pastors than a generation ago. Now the future leaders include both children and adults. We continue to envision our school-age members as the next generation of church leaders. At the same time we recognize that, for some, the future is not so distant.And there’s even more. Ministry isn’t limited to paid professionals with a formal call to serve. Your ministry of visiting the sick and homebound, praying, teaching, sharing of nancial resources, leading in worship, showing hospitality to visitors and myriad other activities are tangible ways that you are ministers, right now, today. When you look around the congregation, picture the people you see wearing a stole around their necks. Look in the mirror and picture a stole draped across your own shoulders, a sign of God’s call.Thank you for having the vision to see the young people of Pilgrim as future leaders, and for supporting and nurturing their faith. Thank you for saying “yes” to God’s call to ministry, sharing the gifts and talents that you have been given.Pastor Russ Myers Visitation Pastor

11Bega Kwa Bega Fall FestivalThe annual Bega Kwa Bega Fall Festival was held on November 19 at King of Kings Lutheran Church in Woodbury. Coralie Hunter and Mary Beth Lake attended the morning festival to learn more about all of the projects going on in Iringa Province in Tanzania. Pilgrim’s sister congregation has beneted from many of the Iringa initiatives highlighted in this conference. Throughout the morning festival, breakout sessions included opportunities to learn more about the following organizations and projects that the St. Paul Synod works with and benets from:Dignity for Daughters is a educational drive to empower young female teenagers to manage their hygiene and health. Approximately 50% of Tanzanian girls aged 15-19 may become pregnant; only 10% of educated Tanzanian teenagers will become pregnant. Programs like Dignity for Daughters make a big dierence in the lives of teenagers.Friends of Huruma Center is a safe, nurturing home for abandoned children in Iringa. They are provided a safe home, nurturing environment, nutrition, education, and health care. Pastor Chris Smith is the Coordinator for the St. Paul District concerning the Huruma Center.St. Paul Partners for Water in Tanzania is a Christian organization in St. Paul that assists the people of Iringa Province to obtain and maintain clean, safe water for sanitation practices. The University of Minnesota also provides engineering classes to travel to Tanzania, plan safe wells, and build the water systems for rural villages.The Million Tree Project is part of the dynamic ministry partnership called Kega Kwa Kegs between the Iring Diocese of the ELCT and the St Paul Area Synod of the ELCA. Planting trees plants hope for a future with a healthy environment through reforestation, and helps diocese ministries have the funds needed to grow their ministries.Iringa Hope founded the Community Micronance Strengthening Organization or CMSO, a Tanzanian non-prot organization, that provides education, training, monitoring, legal assistance for Tanzanians to start up and improve their own small businesses.Other session options included best practices to become a companion congregation, zoom session advice, embracing cultural dierences, and worship resources that celebrate companionship with sister congregations. The keynote addresses were given by Rev. Jiskaka Lwila, Rev. Askali Mgeyekwa, BKB Director Kirsten Levorson, and Bishop Patricia Lull of the St Paul Synod. The festival ended with Ibada Worship featuring Rev. Mgeyekwa.A followup session was held in December at Gustavus Adolphus Lutheran Church in East St. Paul in which participating churches could meet, listen to the presentations of the St Paul Synod Coordinators in Iringa, and ask questions about their work with our partner congregations in Iringa. update from tanzania

13EDUCATION, SERVICE, & FELLOWSHIP (CONT.)ISAIAH 2023 Legislative Launches at the CapitolThe 2023 Minnesota Legislative Session is a historic opportunity to build a more just and caring Minnesota. With a governor and legislature largely aligned on our agenda, we can pass policies and budgets that make life better for millions of Minnesotans.We know corporate lobbyists are ever-present at the capitol, pressuring every legislator to get in line with corporate demands. That’s why we need to show up — in person — consistently to show a clear message to elected ocials from Minnesotans: it’s time to deliver!We are leading or co-leading with our allies six big launches at the capitol in early 2023 to set the stage for bold leadership from elected ocials. At each, we will rally as a large group with speakers on the topic before breaking out to speak directly with our legislators. We need hundreds of people at each one to demonstrate a public mandate on these issues!Register and learn more: bit.ly/ISAIAH2023LaunchesJoin the ISAIAH Core team Conversation Hour on Sunday, January 8 to learn more about this historic moment both in the Minnesota legislative session and in Saint Paul, as there will be four open seats!Join MNIPL’s Reparations Learning Table“Then” is not separate from “now.” Yesterday created the realities we live in today.To care for creation, we must not only divest from harmful systems. We must also repair harms we might not have caused, but still benet from.The work of reparations recognizes the generational impact of stolen land and stolen labor. Reparations let us co-create new systems that honor the full humanity of all our neighbors. Join us online for an accessible 4-part introduction to reparations. We’ll meet from 12-1 pm, and you can sign up for any or all of these Thursday lunchtime sessions:• Jan. 12: Reparations: What are they?• Jan. 26: Reparations: Why now and why MNIPL?• Feb. 9: Reparations: What’s faith got to do with it?• Feb. 23: Reparations: What is your story?Register online at mnipl.org/series/reparations-learning-tableCome as an individual or invite a team from your congregation or spiritual community.
