Senior Pastor

Rev. Brady Whitton

Dear Brothers & Sisters in Christ,

Just like natural seasons help the earth remain fertile and productive, cycles of rest and activity are good for us humans as well! I thank God for restful summer months – we need them. But I also thank God for busy times and things worth committing my time to.

May God grant each of us the wisdom to know when it’s time to rest and when it’s time to get to it!

Yours in Christ,

Meet The Vision Lay Leaders

The Vision of FUMC is being led by nine church members who are the Lay Leaders (being assisted by a staff counterpart). We invite you to learn a little more about these people who are making our Vision a reality.

This is the first in a series, featuring your nine Vision Lay Leaders.

The next series will run in the August edition of 930north.

John F. Smith

After School Enrichment Program What is the team currently working on?

We are currently interacting with a local elementary school to which will serve as our initial entrance to the community.

The components of the program, as of today, will include academic as well as enrichment activities for the youth. In addition the program will have a strong parent component.

Unique to the process is having parents of the students who will be participating in the program help provide guidance as to the design of the program. The current goal is to have between 30 and 40 students, as well as their parents actively engaged by the beginning of the school year.

What is your personal hope for the ministry?

My personal hope is that this ministry will serve to enhance the educational, cultural, spiritual and family well-being of both the students and their parents as well as the members of FUMC. Where do you see this ministry in 5 years?

I see this ministry serving as a model which can be duplicated by other organizations and churches throughout the city, thereby increasing the impact of its mission.

Nancy Cadwallader

Member Engagement and Care

What is the team currently working on?

The Member Engagement Vision Team has been busy! The Lead Team has met several times establishing goals and the entire Member Engagement Vision Committee has several projects in process.

In full swing is a new Member Engagement Phone Team, which is tasked with calling and reaching out to members.

This team will then funnel pertinent information to the Prayer Team, Ministers, or other staff members for follow up. We hope to soon have additional ways for the membership to identify prayer concerns and joys.

One exciting aspect of the Lead Team’s work has been researching and proposing a new enhanced computer data system for the entire church. (Hopefully by the time you read this we will be in the implementation stage). Also envisioned are multiple ways for members to record their presence in worship in addition to the regularly used paper attendance pads (mobile apps, facebook, etc.) Assisting Sunday School Classes and other organized groups with ways to improve their communications and track the attendance of their activities is also being pursued. A brochure of ministry opportunities at FUMC has been updated.

What is your personal hope for the ministry?

My personal hope is that we shall continue to discover opportunities to transform and engage all members while attracting new members.

Where do you see this ministry in 5 years?

In five years we shall have an even more vibrant membership that celebrates and shares in the diverse ministries of First United Methodist Church.

Gretchen Barnes

Youth Discipleship Path

What is the team currently working on?

The vision is to create a transforming opportunity to move students from the concrete facts of faith to abstract experiences with Jesus.

What is your personal hope for the ministry?

To create a curriculum for our youth that will flow and build on each other from year to year. A curriculum that will teach the students not only the concrete facts about our faith but also a way to apply it in their lives today.

Bob Leitner

Adult Discipleship Path What is the team currently working on?

Our initial meetings have allowed input on what this structure will look like. We have identified the core elements of the path to include: • An onramp for newcomers or members who are new to the faith • Education components on core Methodist beliefs and practices • Some connectivity / cooperation with Sunday School classes • An intention to engage in a small Wesleyan-type small group • A regular focus on “doing for others” and serving in ministry

What is your personal hope for the ministry?

I am excited to be participating in this developmental process that will key into our mission statement of “engaging” and “transforming” our members and our culture. My desire is to undergird our congregation with a strong spiritual foundation of discipleship that is prepared to share the love of Jesus Christ and minister in His name to our neighbors.

10 930 North Magazine | August 2014

Dan Reed

Urban Mission Center What is the team currently working on?

Our current work includes the selection of a name for the ministry, defining the scope of the mission at start-up and the search for a suitable location where we can house volunteer workers and materials. We hope that, by the time you read this, a name will have been selected so that we can begin marketing the project to meet our goal of having actual repair work begin next spring.

What is your personal hope for the ministry?

This ministry gives FUMC the opportunity to do so many good things at the same time. First, we will offer our young people, together with many others from around the country, the chance to learn and develop the gift of service to others while having experiences and forming relationships that will last a lifetime. At the same time, those young people will be doing valuable work improving housing in our City. Through our mission, we will form new and valuable relationships with our neighbors. And, as a bonus, we get to showcase Baton Rouge to our visitors.

Where do you see this ministry in 5 years?

Startups are risky, but, if we succeed, we will accomplish the goals I mentioned above for hundreds of young people each spring and summer and dozens of other volunteers yearround. They will be working on perhaps 20 homes per year, making themselves better people and Baton Rouge a better place to live.

If you would like to be involved in The Vision of FUMC, please contact the FUMC front office (225) 383-4777.

Awesome biscuit bread I am not really sure I remember the first time we ever walked through the door of the First Methodist Church here in Baton Rouge or even how long ago it was but I do remember the first time our family came to The Gathering on a Wednesday night.

I grew up in a small town with lots of small churches, and attending on Sundays was not a family event. The church bus would come pick up my brother, sister and myself every week.

Attending church, as an adult was something that was held to holidays and special events and most of the time my husband and I would attend different churches. So when our family moved to Baton Rouge in the fall of 2011 one of our main family goals was to find a church we both liked and attend as a family- together- consistently.

After several visits to different types of churches with various worship styles we finally agreed that we liked “the Methodist church down town.” With any creation of a good habit or 12 930 North Magazine | August 2014

breaking a bad habit the rule of thumb is consistency, either keep doing it or continue not to do it. So early January of 2013 I guess as a New Year’s Resolution kinda thing we said “Family!

Time to get up and go to church!” Well of course the girls loved it, as I knew they would.

Children are such a miracle in themselves so naturally they would be drawn to unconditional love, fellowship, music and Sunday school crafts!

But with most good intentions we just kinda fell off the radar with attending, then summer came and went, school started back up and attending worship on Sundays didn’t seem to be making it on the weekend plan.

When I heard of America Street and a band was involved.... I was very excited and love the different style and I truly could feel my heart opening to the message of God. I look at my girls and I know I am looking at His grace but I still feel like a little girl in a very big house that I always get lost in.

A dear friend of mine, Nila Schwab, was with me on a mommy/daughter trip to Houston to celebrate our girls’ birthday. We got on the topic of church, God, struggles that we face as a mom/wife/ friend/daughter, and she said, “You should really come on a Wednesday night! It’s so much

fun and it’s really laid back and the classes are smaller than Sunday School. I think you would really like it. ..No pressure but, I’m tellin ya.. you would really like it. I might even win an iPad if I bring the most people but I would Missy and Mat t Shanklin, wit want you h daughters: Jo rdan, Blake & Izzy to come regardless Cherri because you will just love it!”

Johnson or Becky Poor If you know Nila you can hear those words in her voice and it’s to see if they could take them definitely something Nila would or bring them home. Blake and Izzy LOVE coming so much say. that when there has been that It was a great meal, a rare occasion that we couldn’t wonderful service and we all make it, they break down in helped decorate Christmas ornaments for the church. After tears because the thought of the service the son from another missing is more that their sweet family looks up at his mom and souls can bear. It has been wonderful for my husband and says, “Hey mom, I really like this church! They have awesome me, too. We finally have a place biscuit bread!” He was referring were we feel like we are home, a place that has been so incredibly to a fresh baked loaf of bread, supportive and accepted us with served at communion. open arms, a place were we see Well, we were hooked! people that we can call family.

Next thing I know we are The point is, ask your friends rescheduling our Wednesday to church! You never know night activities so that we can where they are on their journey attend every week. And even a in faiththey just might come time or two, when I personally and never stop, and never could not make it, the girls underestimate the value of good would beg me to start calling bread.
