March, 2016
A monthly account of ministry & mission at
Christ the King Lutheran Church
Thoughts from Pastor Tim Orlowski
At the November Semi-Annual Meeting, I stated that one of my priorities for CtK in 2016 was to hire a half-time Director of Youth Ministries. Youth Ministry is a very special kind of ministry, and there is a particularly urgent need for that
ministry to be geared up at CtK. It takes a person who youth relate to; someone who takes the time to go to concerts
and sporting events; it takes a person who LOVES lock-ins and crazy game nights; it takes a person with a passion
for youth and their particular burdens and passions; it takes a person to help them to grow into more of the people
that God had created them to be; it takes a person who comes and encourages the youth to come, too. In the end,
the youth minister is one who can be with our young people and help them to grow in their faith; seek God out as
alive and present in the world; act out of a commitment of their faith; participate in worship and discipleship with
God’s people; live out a life of service; and rejoice in God’s hopeful Spirit within them.
After conducting a search and interviews, we offered the position to a candidate in early December. Due to family
circumstances, he told us that he was unable to begin work until January. Then, in mid-January we received the unfortunate news that he had to decline the position in order to take care of his ailing father who lived in Phoenix.
In the meantime, our Director of Faith Formation, Mandy Gardner, has taken on some extra responsibilities in the
area of youth ministry. See the schedule for youth coffee and/or lunch outings inside this newsletter. I am extremely
grateful for Mandy and her help in this regard, although I know that this detracts from the work that we have expressly
hired her to do.
So we began a new search for a Director of Youth Ministries in February, this time searching locally but also advertising the position in various national online venues. We are inviting applicants to submit a resume to Pastor Tim by
March 14, 2016. If you or someone you know might be interested in applying for this position, please let them know.
A job description can be found at our website: www.ctkdurango.org.
One of the obstacles, I am discovering, in searching for a half-time position is the cost of living in Durango – especially in regard to housing. If you or someone you know has a room, apartment or small house that is available for a
new Youth Director to rent, please notify Pastor Tim. Any help in this regard would be extremely beneficial.
I will keep you all posted on the progress of this new search as it unfolds. Please continue to pray that God will direct
the right person to aid us in our ministry to, with and for the youth of our community.

Attendees: Gary Steinbach, Pastor Tim, Chuck Winn, Cortney Conrad,
Mae Morley, Tom Duft, Ken Hartlein, John Condie, Julie Williams, Charlie Hakes
Gary called the meeting to order at 5:31 pm; a quorum was present.
Pastor’s Rpt—There are 11 to attend the Navajo Mission and 7 for the
Guatemala Mission; fundraising plans for the mission trips forthcoming
soon. The person we offered the Youth Director position to has declined, for family reasons. The position is currently advertised on the
national youth minister network online, on the Rocky Mountain Synod
youth network, and at Ft. Lewis.*
Administrator’s Rpt—Discussed sign upgrades for the Sanctuary,
Community Hall, and Office. *
Treasurer’s Rpt—Income almost exactly matched the budget; Maturity
Team is in the green because the Youth Director position has not yet
started, thus no salary output; Administration had additional money
spent on snow removal; overall deficit for income vs. expenses is
$4,692. *
M-Team Rpts— *
All M-Team Liaisons are asked to review, update, and make any relevant changes to the M-Team Goals and Action Plans as outlined in the
Strategic Plan and bring these back to Council for discussion and finalization. The goal is to present the strides and progress to the congregation at the May Congregational Meeting.

Good Friday Prayer Vigil is March 25th from 5:30am to 5:30pm. Look for the sign-up sheet in the
Welcome Center (note the time change) and commit to prayer for one hour. You can pray here
or at home or wherever you feel inspired. You can pray in solitude or with a group. There will be
suggestions and “helps” in the Chapel (including the prayer map and giant Jenga prayer stations); if you include your email address when you sign up you will also have the suggestions in
your inbox. If you are in need of prayers, you will find index cards in the chapel on which to write
your requests for yourself or for others (as always, these can be anonymous too).

CtK will host our annual Community Easter Egg Hunt

exciting Hunt! (Youth please arrive by 1:30pm to hide the
eggs – see the Youth Page. Adult volunteers are welcome,
too.)
We are in need of candy donations - there is a box in the Welcome Center you can put your

As a representative for the church on the Children's World
Board, I would just like to say we sure have some cute kiddos enrolled!! I have been dropping by to take pictures of
the children to make class lists for the teachers. It has
been really fun to get to know the staff and the children.
Circle of Centering Prayer meets on Mondays from 5:307:15pm in the Chapel. Contact Sharyn Butler at 970-7596355
Great Ol' Broads of God (GoBoG's) GoBoG’s invites you to
join them in study and fellowship. They meet at CtK in the
classrooms W6/W7 each Monday from 4:00-5:30 pm. (The
first Monday of each month is dedicated to Share The Care,
GoBoGs’ outreach mission.) They are currently studying
Julie Williams, a member of our current Church Council,
has been acting as a liaison between the Council and Children's World. She has posted a sign up sheet for any
members of the church who are able to come read to the
children. If reading to the children is not an activity of interest to you, perhaps you have another suggestion that I am
hoping you will consider. You might also consider helping
the teachers out by doing some prep work for them at
home. They often need items cut out, or something created
on the computer—items they will use in their classrooms. Whatever time and ability you have to offer would
be greatly appreciated. Simply share your interests and
ideas with Julie Williams, or any of the Children's World
Board members.
The World Religions through the “Great Courses” series
along with their current Bible reading of the Gospels.
Please join them for study sessions that are deeply rewarding. For more info., contact Lynda Morris at 3855128 or at lynda@apelslice.com.
Men’s Bible Study meets on Tuesdays at 8:30am in the
Community Hall. Each week they study the Scriptures that will
be used in worship the following Sunday. All men welcome.
Coffee & donuts are served! Contact Tim Williams ,
247-4715 with any questions.
The Board members are: Lauri Kloepfer, Kim Hobby, Judy
Olson, Stella Welcher, Lynn Mitzlaff and myself - - Susan
Johnson.
Midweek Bible Study led by Pastor Tim. The class meets
each Thursday from 12:00 noon—1:00 pm. Bring your lunch
and join us. ALL ARE WELCOME! For more info., call
church office at 247-5310.
Another request I have is for any craft supplies you may
come across at yard sales, thrift stores, or store clearance
sales. Markers, crayons, construction paper, glue sticks,
buttons, glitter, yarn, brown lunch sacks—anything else you
think could be put to use! Also, before we know it, the end
of the school year will be here. If your own children bring
home some school supplies that you don't want around the
house, please consider sending those old markers, crayons, scissors, etc. to CtK for Children's World. Any items
not used by Children's World kids will get passed along for
summer Day Camp at church.
Khuvara (“Circle of Friends”) The Khuvara Women’s Group
meets on Thursday afternoons from 1:30 pm to 3:00 pm in the
CtK Library. We discuss various books, and take prayer requests. Our current study and discussion is a book by author
Ruth A. Tucker entitled, “Dynamic Women of the Bible.” All
women are welcome, and we gladly invite new members to
join us. For more information, call Stella Welcher at 970-9039327
Spiritual Study Group (SSG) Open to ALL The Spiritual
Study Group will be reading "The Spirituality of Age: A
Seeker's Guide to Growing Older", by Robert L Weber and
Carol Orsborn. A brief description of the book in the Lutheran
says, " Aging can be a meaningful and rick path to mature
spirituality...the authors have come up with 25 questions designed to help older people deal with the thorny aspects of
growing older, such as loss and mortality. ... We were also
impressed with their Twelve Exercises for Seekers and their
list of resources for recommended reading." Please join us on
Thursdays at 3:00 pm in room W3, the Bridal Room, for what
promises to be a stimulating study. Contact: Laura Stransky
(749-2270) or Aurora Rose (382-9801) .
I thank you for your consideration and support.
Prayers for the staff and the children of Children's World
are always appreciated. Happy March!

The Piecemaker Quilters of CtK sew
large quilts for the Navajo Evangelical
Lutheran Mission at Rock Point, AZ, on
a regular basis. Upon learning that
some folks there have to sleep outdoors
on the ground, the Quilters recently
made heavy, large quilts to help out.
Prayer Quilts are made as well for the
sick and homebound, for newborns, and
others in need. The Piecemakers graciously welcome
new quilters, or anyone who would like to learn to quilt—
someone will happily assist in getting you started. They
meet on the 2nd Friday of each month from 9:30 am
until 2:00 pm in the CtK Community Hall and usually
bring lunch and spend some time discussing quilting
plans, chatting, and catching up. You are invited to come
learn to quilt or simply come to enjoy fellowship with them
whenever you can. For more information, call Judy
Danielson at 247-9730 or reach her at the Durango
Quilt Company at 247-2582.
From our CtK Library—You can find this book in the
Biography Section.
Katharina Von Bora
by: Rudolf & Marilynn Markwald
Rudolph and Marilynn Markwald have written a biography of
Katharina Von Bora, Martin Luther’s wife. She was a support to Martin
Luther, and he valued her opinion. Consequently, Katharina has become a significant figure in church history, especially that of the Reformation.
Because little is known of Katharina’s early years, the first couple of
chapters of the book are devoted more to the background of the convent life in which she was raised. The succeeding chapters tell of her
relationship with Luther. Their relationship is revealed in his letters to
her and their conversations, as recorded by guests, and subsequently
published as Luther’s table talk. Luther held a traditional view of marriage — man is head of the house. Nonetheless, he recognized his
wife’s key role in managing the practical side of their life. She ran several farms and a large household and often found herself tending to
frequent long-term guests and even brewing. She was also instrumental in the details of getting Luther’s works published by the printers.
Hey Readers!
The CtK Book Club meets on the second Thursday of each
month at 3:00 pm in the CtK Library. Our book discussion for
March 10th is “People of the Book” by Geraldine Brooks. Then
in April , on Thursday the 14th, we turn our discussion to a book
by Lorraine Hansberry, “Raisin in the Sun.” We invite you to
drop in at any time for some lively and enriching literary discussions. We always have a good time and look forward to having
new members join us!
After Luther’s death, his and Katharina’s home in Wittenberg was
overrun several times by Catholic forces. Katharina’s major achievement during this time was keeping her family together and raising her
children to adulthood. Sadly, during another flight from the wars of the
Reformation, she was killed in a carriage accident .
This book is recommended if you are interested in Lutheran and
Reformation history.
Please call Stella Welcher at 903-9327 or 884-0460 for more
info.
