Planting Seeds

CONTRIBUTED TO FAITH RENEWED BY REV. JIM HUMPHREY

PHOTO CONTRIBUTED TO FAITH RENEWED COSHOCTON - When the Rev. David Hollingsworth, a retired ordained deacon who is now a resident at the Coshocton Care and Rehabilitation Center, read his recent Three Rivers District newsletter, The Current, he noticed an article about the upcoming spring meeting of the district United Methodist Women (UMW). As part of the meeting, the ladies were collecting seeds for the Jackson Area Ministries gardening program.

“Guess who started that program 40 years

ago?” Hollingsworth, knowing the answer, asked me in an e-mail.

In 1973, Hollingsworth, a recent graduate of Scarritt College in Nashville, TN, came to Jackson to work as a church and community worker for the Jackson Area Ministries. The United Methodist Church community ministry serves the Appalachian counties of southeast Ohio.

Hollingsworth began the ministry of helping people plant their own home gardens by supplying area residents with seeds and gardening plants. Hanging on his nursing home wall is a picture of five kids showing off some of the vegetables they had grown from seeds given to their family from area church folk.

He began this ministry, one that continues to assist low-income families in becoming self-sustaining, more than 40 years ago. It is a blessing to read about where these seeds have been planted and where they continue to bloom.

We do not know where the children in the photo are today, but we rejoice that their lives were touched by the ministry of The United Methodist Church. In this spring season, as we await buds to come blossoming forth, may we think of ways we can plant and sow seeds of ministry that will continue to bloom and bear fruit.

Rev. Jim Humphrey is superintendent of the Three Rivers District.

congregation back into the old church after fixing all safety issues while they built a 1.6 million dollar new facility. They also started a thrift store and created a Sunday School on an Indian Reservation.

“That was one of our achievements we were excited about to go on the reservations and start a Sunday School and reach out to the children,” said Pearl.

The Salvation Army is best known for their outreach ministry, but they are also a church and have services every Sunday at 11 a.m. and Sunday School at 10 a.m.

“How can you show people God’s love when they are hungry?” said Pearl. “You feed them and then talk about God. Our outgoing ministry is to show God’s love by serving our fellow man.”

The Salvation Army also has a Thursday night Bible Study at 6 p.m. as well as a women’s and men’s fellowship. The church is located at 219 N. Fourth St. in Coshocton. The community is invited to join them on Sundays.

“It’s been a process of learning the community and learning the needs of the community,” said Pearl. “We need to find our niche. What can we do? Are there needs that the Army can meet and provide for the challenges ahead?”

spent the last eight months deciding their vision for the Salvation Army in Coshocton and getting to know the community.

“We have been very well received,” said Major Steven Pearl. “It’s been a great welcoming and good for my wife and I. We like the area and the people. The United Way has been very supportive in helping us know our way around and what’s happening in the community.”

Although they are not certain what they want to accomplish in Coshocton, Pearl would like to utilize the Salvation Army building more.

“We have not figured out how to do that on our part, but we invite the community to come in and utilize the building,” he said.

Majors Steven and Hermas moved to Coshocton from Maine. They spent eight years in Rockland, Maine and seven years in Houlton, Maine. When they arrived in Maine, the Salvation Army was housed in an old church that was eventually closed due to safety issues.

Jacob’s Closet provides clothing to community

WARSAW – The members of Warsaw United Methodist Church make a monthly donation to the food pantry in Nellie, but they wanted to do more for the community.

“We are a small church, but we do what we can,” said Edith Bolen who volunteers at the church. “We found out there was a need for clothing so we started Jacob’s Closet.”

Jacob’s Closet was started in 2009 by Margaret and Jack Cullison and continues to provide clothing free of charge to anyone who stops by from 9 a.m. to noon on Thursdays.

They also are open from 5 to 8 p.m. the fourth Thursday of the month to coincide with food giveaways at the pantry in Nellie.

TO BY JOSIE SELLERS “We have a little bit of everything,” Bolen said.

Currently they have clothing for everyone from babies to adults and have a nice selection for both men and women. They also get shoes, toys, bedding and from time to time have gotten walkers for babies, bassinets and car seats.

“We never know what we are going to get and we will take most anything that’s given to us,” Bolen

said.

However, the volunteers make sure that all the items put out are in good shape.

“We sort them and make sure they have all the buttons, the zippers work, there are no holes and they are clean,” Bolen said. “I don’t put anything out that I wouldn’t wear myself.”

Anyone is welcome to come to Jacob’s Closet.

“We don’t ask for names or your income,” Bolen said. “We don’t want to intimidate people.

It’s all free to anyone who needs it.”

Donations also are welcome from 9 a.m. to noon on weekdays.

“Usually we are in need of baby items, but we are well supplied right now,” Bolen said.

“One thing we don’t get a lot of is teen and junior clothing for boys and girls.”

Bolen enjoys volunteering at Jacob’s Closet and so does Denie Taylor who recently helped her pack away winter clothing to make room for spring and summer items.

“It feels good to help,” Bolen said. “We had three new faces today and I like to see that.”

BY BETH SCOTT special needs ministry COSHOCTON – People from all walks of life have the opportunity to worship God in their own unique way at Roscoe United Methodist Church in their Special Needs Ministry. This ministry began 10 years ago and has served children with special needs while also encouraging them to be actively involved in the church.

“Our special needs kids participate as much as they are comfortable with,” said Jen Jones, Director of Special Needs and Children’s

Ministry. “They do acolytes and children’s chats.”

Each October, the ministry also has a special needs worship service that is run completely by those with special needs and their family members.

“It’s really cool,” said Jones. “One young man is blind and has autism and he plays the piano and my daughter has autism and she sings.

They have so many different talents and we try to use those talents as much as we can.”

The ministry serves those three years old and older. Their oldest member right now is in his early thirties. Members of the special needs ministry may have autism, spina bifida, ADHD, traumatic brain injury, or other disabilities. No one is turned away, no matter how severe the disability.

“We have a really good steady group,” said Jones. “We get new members as some others leave.”

The members meet each Sunday morning from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m. The ministry also offers a Time Out Class six times a year on Saturdays where parents of children with special needs can drop off their children and any siblings for three hours. The children will participate in a Bible study, have lunch, do different activities, and play together. A ‘quiet room’ is also available for any child who may become overstimulated and need some quiet time.

Four times a year, Roscoe offers a family event where children and parents can come and do family activities together.

Approximately eight to 10 volunteers help

The special needs ministry meets each Sunday morning from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m. at Roscoe United Methodist Church.

Jones each Sunday. The ministry has a total of eight to 10 children each week as well.

“A lot of times, I feel like I’m not teaching them anything, they’re teaching me,” said Jones.

“People sometimes look at these kids and feel sorry for them, and I want to tell them not to.

They’re happy kids and they put their total faith in God. Whether they can verbalize Bible stories or not doesn’t matter. They all trust God.” Any new members who would like to come to the special needs ministry are welcome.

Parents are asked to meet with Jones beforehand so that necessary paperwork can be filled out.

“I’m really grateful to the church for their continued support of this ministry, and not just financially,” said Jones. “People in the congregation are so accepting of people with disabilities. You can have a special needs ministry, but if you don’t have the congregation’s support, then you can’t have much of a ministry.”

To learn more about the special needs ministry, contact the church at 622-7780. For those who may already have a home church, the Time Out Saturdays and family events are open to anyone with special needs in the community.

‘This Light Remains’ to offer hope to community THIS LIGHT REMAINS

BEACON PHOTO BY BETH SCOTT

COSHOCTON – The Easter story will be told from a different perspective this year during the Coshocton Nazarene Church’s Easter musical, ‘This Light Remains’. This is the second year the church has presented this production, which was written by members of the congregation.

“They’re all so similar because the story is the same,” said Pastor James Rose, youth pastor, about area Easter plays. “What separates this one is because it’s written and developed by local people. They’ve put a different perspective on it.

We’re trying to provide a little encouragement to our community.”

Rose hopes that this musical will be a source of hope to the people of Coshocton as businesses are closing, people are being laid off, and others are losing their homes.

“We’re at a point right now where people are losing hope,” said Rose, “not only because of what’s happening locally, but around the

world. We hope they understand who Christ is and why He had to give that sacrifice for us. It’s the idea that even when life seems so rough and hopeless, there is a source of strength and light for our future.”

The play centers around a woman named Rachel, played by Hannah Lanz, who has lost her infant son in the King Herod massacre after the birth of Jesus. As the play begins, Rachel and Judah, played by Trevor Lanz, are exchanging wedding vows, she becomes pregnant, and her son is born. She has a very hopeful future until the king orders every infant son to be murdered in his quest to find and kill the one called the true king. Thirty years after the massacre, Rachel still hasn’t forgotten her son and is very bitter.

“She’s still struggling with this same thing through the whole play,” said Hannah Lanz. “I’m hoping that Rachel’s character connects with the women in the audience. She has struggles and fears, but she’s able to overcome them in the end.”

Although her husband Judah has grieved

BY BETH SCOTT

for his son, he has moved on and now, there is tension between him and his wife because she refuses to let go of the past.

“He’s resentful over the fact that his son has died, but he has moved on,” said Trevor Lanz.

“But there’s still an awkward tension between their relationship. He’s resentful because she’s still clinging to the past.”

Throughout the musical, Rachel and Judah are mentored by two older married adults in their community, Cleopas, played by Tom Clark, and Zara Beth, played by Mary Knicely.

“He’s an older, wiser man married to Zara Beth and they have a mentoring relationship with the young couple,” said Clark. “My character is looking forward to Jesus’ coming, but he’s looking for a more military or political leader.

He is very disappointed at the crucifixion and he comes to realize exactly who Jesus is after His death.”

Matt Mathias, who portrays Jesus, hopes that the audience leaves the play with a sense of what Jesus has done for them in their lives and His forgiveness.

“I hope they know what Jesus has done for them,” he said, “and what He went through. This isn’t just a play. It’s a depiction of something that really happened. I hope they understand how forgiving He is. He doesn’t even remember our sin when we ask for forgiveness.”

‘This Light Remains’ will be April 17, 18, and 19 at 7:30 p.m. Doors will open at 7 p.m.

Tickets are only $1 and can be purchased at The Good News Book Store, Buehler’s Food, or at the church office.

pointed him in the direction of becoming a minister, but is more than willing to take on the challenge.

“I’m ok with speaking in front of people, but wasn’t as out there with my faith as much as I could be, but I just said if God wants me to do this, I will do it,” he said.

COSHOCTON – Michael Cormack may only be a junior in high school, but he already knows where God is leading him.

Cormack battled mononucleosis and had to do online schooling, but when he got to feeling better, he felt Coshocton High School wasn’t the place for him to go back to.

“I felt like I was called to go to the Coshocton Christian School,” he said. “It was just one of those things that God said, ‘Hey go there,’ and I try to follow what he says.”

Cormack also feels God has called him to be a pastor, a profession that the Christian School is helping prepare him for through its curriculum and the opportunity to meet numerous pastors.

He also has been really impressed with the teachers there.

“They really care about you,” he said.

Cormack has already decided to continue his education at Ohio Christian University, where he hopes to also run cross country.

“I also looked at Southern Wesleyan University,” he said. “It was really cool because it had warmer weather and there were a few other options, but OCU just seemed like a tighter unit and the professors were really nice. They also let you do ministry while you are in school and keep you busy.”

Two pastors also have had a lot of impact on his desire to become a pastor.

“I was saved through Pastor Brian Daniels’ ministry and he had a lot of affect on my life and put me where I needed to be,” Cormack said. “Pastor Rob Uhlig also is an amazing man.

He’s a Pirates fan and so am I, but I’ve also been able to talk to him and have him help me through things and prepare for the ministry.”

Cormack was really scared when God first

of what we take in and spend it outwardly,” he said.

The church is routine supporters of the New Life Ministries and Nellie food pantries and the Hope Clinic.

Branch UMC is located on County Road 4 and services are held at 9 a.m. on Sundays.

“There are two things I do a little different here,” Mason said. “I try not to call people people.

You are souls. You can have a lot of feeling about a person, but if you look at their soul you can feel differently and hopefully see the greater picture. I also care more about your soul than your feelings. I don’t like to play word games.

Jesus is the only one who is worthy enough to be up here preaching so I think as a preacher, it is really important to not play word games.”

He also wants the public to know one other important fact about the church.

“We do have an indoor bathroom,” Mason said.

COSHOCTON – Branch United Methodist Church may seem like it’s in the middle of nowhere, but the small country church, which has been in existence since 1839, continues to grow in leaps and bounds.

When Pastor Joel Mason started preaching there three and a half years ago, attendance was averaging only 10-12 people a week, but now it’s running in the mid to high 60s. Mason, however, takes none of the credit for packing people into the pews.

“Jesus is the one helping us grow,” he said.

Mason also believes there are three things that make a strong church: Wet eyes, bent knees and broken hearts.

“Until you find yourself in that position, you are hard hearted and full of pride, which is the root of all sins,” he said. “We have to put God before ourselves and when that happens, people will notice a difference in you. They’ll ask you why you are different and you can tell them to come on out and you will show them, but it’s not me that made the difference. It’s the body of believers that recognize the importance of putting God before everything else. People are constantly inviting others to come here.”

Branch UMC has Sunday school for children, but Mason expects those 12 and older to be in the pews.

“I’m not going to preach about anything they won’t understand,” he said. “It’s all about who Jesus is and why he matters.”

Mason worked on the railroad for 20 years before getting his degree from Ohio Christian University and becoming a pastor.

“I received a tremendous education there and I’ve been a blessed man ever since becoming a pastor,” he said. “I was appointed here by the

“The Puggles group is for our littlest kids,” said Julie. “We do this to connect moms in the area with each other and give the children a chance to play together. They also learn simple little verses like, God is love.”

When children graduate from this group they move on to Cubbies.

“A lot of people are amazed, but 3 and 4-year-olds can learn so much about the Bible,” Julie said.

The church also has rooms set up for other age groups to learn in and uses its auditorium to play games and hold group opening and closing ceremonies for each Awana night. Julie said they also make sure to feed the kids dinner, but one of the best parts of the night is the end.

“We had Cheetos and shower cap night,” Julie said. “The leaders put a shower cap on and we coated it with shaving cream so the kids could throw Cheetos at them. It was a crazy night.”

She tries to have a different theme every week for the kids.

“One of the funniest ones we did was fake an injury night,” Julie said. “This family of three boys came in with walkers and all wrapped up. I try to keep things interesting and exciting. A lot

of kids can think church is boring. The Bible isn’t boring, but kids don’t always think that way.”

However, more and more kids are starting to see how much fun learning about God can be and Julie has a great team of volunteers helping her do that.

“The leaders get dressed up and excited about our themes and I think the kids feed off of that,” Julie said.

About 30 people help her run activities on Wednesday nights.

“Awana takes a lot of work, but when people say they are going to help, I know they are going to be here,” Julie said.

The youth and adult volunteers also work hard selling pizza as a fundraiser for the church’s youth ministry. A great time to enjoy that pizza will be from 5 to 7 p.m. Friday, April 25, during the Pizza Blast event. For donation of $5 for adults and $3 for children, you can eat all the pizza you want that night at the church. Money
