For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” –Jeremiah 29:11

The Major Message

Welcome to the 2019 Summer edition of the Quincy Kroc Center Program Guide! Our theme verse for this program season is Jeremiah 29:11 which tells us God has a PLAN for each of us.

AUXILIARY CAPTAINS MIKA & GRACE ROINILA Congregational Life Officers (top & bottom right)

Go to KrocQuincy.org/worship to learn about our ministry team

•

When the summer heat starts to get you down, we hope your PLAN will be to come in and enjoy our cool, air conditioned workout areas to help stay in shape.

•

PLAN to cool off with your family in the pool or on the outdoor splash pad!

•

Children are our future, so PLAN to prepare them physically and spiritually with sports leagues, Camp Kroc, and church camps.

•

PLAN to become spiritually “fit” with us through the spiritual ministries here at The Salvation Army Kroc Center.

This is a great time of year to be #KrocStrong in so many ways! Please examine the many opportunities for fitness and instruction available to you in this guide.

Most of all, as our verse says, know that God’s plan for you brings the greatest hope and the best future.

The Kroc Fit Kids Prevention Program was created to educate and engage children in the benefits of physical activity, nutrition, and healthy choices to therefore, reduce their chances of becoming obese and suffering the complications of being overweight. The program is designed to support the process of learning and practicing healthy lifestyle choices from physical activity to proper nutrition.

Fit Family Fun Nights Families are invited to a free monthly event including an interactive activity, a learning component, and a healthy snack.

Education & Fine Arts The Benefits of Music Lessons Personalized Training Every child learns in his/her own way, at his/her own pace.

Private music lessons can provide instruction that meets the specific learning style of each child. One-on-one music lessons are all about finding ways to help your child learn in the way that works best for him/her.

Guaranteed Success With a private instructor, a child learns much more quickly the fundamentals of playing. A solid foundation is established, and the student can keep learning, playing and succeeding—and that’s fun! The child builds confidence and determination, not to mention the desire to continue playing.

Instant Feedback With private music lessons, corrections and advice—as well as praise and encouragement—are delivered instantly and constantly.

Effective Practice Every young musician needs to learn how to practice. A student spends hours each week practicing, and that time needs to be well spent. A good private instructor will send the student home weekly with the proper practice skills so the student gets the most out of practice time. Just as important, the student won’t dread practice time, because he/she will have control over it and can expect results.

Camp is not just for Summer!

Our daughters come home, and they tell us about the Bible stories that they learned that day. I also really love the focus on homework during the Kroc Academy after school program. It really helps family time be family time when the kids come home.”

Yoga helps Dot Nelson look forward to a healthier future 34

Summer 2019 | KrocQuincy.org | 217-222-5762

YO GA YOGA IS FOR EVERYONE

Yoga can seem like an intimidating activity, but according to Kroc Yoga Instructors Andrea Doellman and Dot Nelson, that perception couldn’t be further from the truth.

Both Andrea and Dot have been practicing yoga for four years and instructing yoga for one year. Dot instructs Gentle Yoga at The Kroc Center, and Andrea instructs Yoga. While the length of time they have been practicing yoga is almost identical, both women have their own reasons for why they practice, as well as why they instruct.

have a pose that they need to work on, we will work on it.

If they can’t get into certain poses, which is totally normal, there are different techniques I can teach them. Yoga is for everyone, and I like that fact,” stated Andrea.

“

A few benefits of practicing yoga include weight loss, improvement of sleep quality, hormonal balance, strength building, increased flexibility, balance, and coordination.”

“I really enjoy the idea that one size does not fit all,” stated Dot. “The one thing that really inspired me to become certified in yoga at my age was that I began to see people around me, at every age, who had stopped moving. You could see it in the way they walked, in the way that they breathed, and in their whole mindset. I am inspired to help people become healthier.”

Embracing What You Can Do

When asked if class participants would need previous yoga experience to take their classes, both instructors said the same thing, “No! Experience is not necessary. If you can breathe; you can do yoga.”

Don’t let any misconceptions about yoga deter you from trying a class. “You can do yoga in a chair or on a mat. The flow can be a fast-paced, calorie burning session, or it can be a slow flow with more stretching,” stated Andrea. “People shouldn’t just think of yoga as doing a crazy headstand poses.

Yoga is for everyone, and everyone can do yoga.”

“Practicing yoga is about celebrating your body and not what your mind tells you your body can’t do, but about embracing what you can do,” stated Dot. “I guarantee you will leave class feeling better.”

A Source Of Strength

Join Andrea for Yoga

Andrea credits her yoga practice as a source of strength that helped her through tough times. “Yoga helps to build confidence,” stated Andrea. “As I have become stronger, I have noticed that I can hold poses longer. I have better mental clarity. I sleep better and experienced weight loss.”

Dot began her journey of practicing yoga when she was faced with her sixth joint replacement due to arthritis. “I decided to search out something to help better my strength and improve my health,” stated Dot. “It was in that search that I found yoga. I began practicing yoga and noticed I was healthier and stronger. I had a successful joint replacement, and I decided that I wanted to practice yoga for the rest of my life.”

Both instructors are passionate about helping others discover the benefits of practicing yoga. They have both experienced something that has brought positivity into their lives, and they simply want to share it with anyone willing to try. “I love instructing yoga and helping people in their practice.

Leaving a

Legacy The IRA Charitable Rollover An Easy Way to Help Our Cause

I

f you are 70 ½ or older, you’re likely receiving an annual income from your IRA, and chances are you’re paying more in taxes each year. The good news is that rolling over part or all of your required minimum distribution (RMD) to a charity like The Salvation Army can help reduce your tax bill while supporting our mission to clothe, feed, and shelter individuals and families in need.

Easy To Do, Difficult To Pass Up Making a gift from your IRA is simple. All you have to do is contact your IRA administrator to request a transfer from your IRA directly to a nonprofit like our organization.

For example, if you’re required to withdraw $25,000, you’ll pay income on that money based on your tax rate. If you use that money to make your charitable gifts, you’ll have less to donate. However, if you contact your IRA administrator and direct your distribution to The Salvation Army, the entire $25,000 goes to support our mission and you don’t pay any taxes on the distribution! With the popularity of the IRA rollover, most administrators provide forms and a procedure to help you make a rollover gift.

Making a gift from your IRA is simple. All you have to do is contact your IRA administrator to request a transfer from your IRA directly to a nonprofit like The Salvation Army.

The law allows up to $100,000 per person to be distributed from an IRA to a qualified charity each year. If you are married, this means you and your spouse can each give up to $100,000 per year as long as you each own an IRA. If you file taxes jointly, a double gift can go a long way toward reducing your taxes.

The IRA rollover applies only to IRAs. If you have a 401(k) or other retirement account that requires minimum distributions, you cannot make an IRA rollover gift. However, if the idea of using the IRA rollover appeals to you, it is often possible to roll

over funds from your other accounts into your IRA and then make a rollover gift. Talk with your financial advisor about whether this option makes sense for you.

Note: Because you are not claiming the transferred amount as income, you will not receive an income tax deduction for your gift. You will still have our gratitude for your generous gift!

Major Gift With Minor Effort Many people are discovering that they can make a big difference to help further our mission with an IRA rollover gift. For an added benefit, consider designating our organization as a beneficiary of your IRA.

that achieves all of your personal and financial goals.
