St. Paul Church ~ A United Methodist Community where
It’s all about God’s love!”
The Messenger
Earn all you can, save all you can, and give all you can!
John Wesley preached that.
I saw an article in the Washington Post by Michelle Singletary, February 12,
2015. When I mentioned the story in my sermon Sunday, I mistakenly said
Ronald was a janitor – my apologies for this error. Here is how the article begins:
Ronald Read, a Vermont gas station attendant who worked in retail later
in life, was a frugal man. He died a multimillionaire at 92. Read had
stock holdings and property valued at almost $8 million, most of which
was left to Brattleboro Memorial Hospital and Brooks Memorial Library in
Brattleboro, Vt., Howard Weiss-Tisman reported in the Brattleboro
Reformer.
“Not only did he refuse to flaunt his wealth; his estate included a 2007
Toyota Yaris valued at $5,000, but his closest friends and family
members did not know he had even a tiny sliver of the fortune he left
behind,” Weiss-Tisman wrote. Most of Read’s investments were found in
a safe deposit box, Read’s attorney, Laurie Rowell, told CNBC. Those
investments included AT&T, Bank of America, CVS, John Deere, GE and
General Motors.

The article goes on, but allow me two points. First, frugal living and saving
can produce amazing results over time. Second, the majority of this wealth was
in a safe deposit box when Mr. Read died. Think of what even a fraction of this
wealth could have done if used for the kingdom of God. As it is, a library and a
hospital will receive the bulk of the inheritance. But imagine the joy Mr. Read
could have experienced in seeing the wealth applied to sharing God’s love.
I believe that we are blessed as we bless others. $50,000 would generate
almost daily joy if our activity center has a decent athletic surface. $50,000 will
go a long way toward new roofs for the Sanctuary and Activity Center, both of
which are in failing health. $25,000 is the annual budget of Ecole Guerny
Filostin in Haiti for 70 students. $350 will afford a child an education for a year
and set a child on course for a better future.
I know you are no stranger to fund raising appeals. Don’t let the list of
needs deter you from storing up treasures in heaven and using the blessings you
have received to multiply God’s love.

2015 Clergy Appointments
As announced in church and
on the 2015 Clergy
Appointments page of the
Baltimore Washington
Conference website: “Rev.
David Graves is appointed to
an extension ministry with the
Institute of Grace, a non-profit
organization ministering in
Haiti, from St. Paul UMC in
Lusby.”
“Rev. David Graves is
appointed to an
extension ministry
with the Institute of
Grace, a non-profit
organization
ministering in Haiti,
from St. Paul UMC in
Lusby.”
Page 2
It is with both
excitement and sadness that I
tell you our bishop has
approved my request for an
appointment to extension
ministry so that I can be more
completely engaged in the
task of missions work,
especially with the people of
Haiti.
I am excited because
this is something that God has
been guiding and calling me
toward over many years. I have
been to Haiti eight times in the
past eight years supporting the
work of the Institute of Grace
and I have longed for the
opportunity to more fully
support the work the body of
Christ is doing there.
It is with sadness
because I will truly miss being
pastor at St Paul in Lusby. This
has been in many respects a
better appointment than I
dared dream for. I have been
blessed by the four years I
have been here. The hardest
part is saying good bye to so many
of you. I will continue to pray for you
and the ministry you are so actively
engaged in. I have been honored to
be a part of the continuing life of the
believers at St Paul.
I ask that you pray for St Paul
and for me and Julia as we make
this transition, effective 1 July,
2015. Bishop Markus Matthews and
District Superintendent Rebecca
Iannicelli are actively working the
assignment of a new senior pastor
to St Paul with the Staff Parish
Committee and I am praying for
God’s guidance for them in this
process, as well. Change can be
difficult, but it also brings the
opportunity for growth and greater
effectiveness in sharing God’s love.
The IOG is an ecumenical
non-profit organization
headquartered in Washington, D.C.
We will be moving to Leesburg, VA,
which is conveniently located near
the Dulles International Airport and
our oldest son Rick and his wife
Jody. While I will be spending more
time in Haiti, we will not be living
there on a permanent basis.
As the process unfolds we will
have opportunities to discuss the
coming transition. Please feel free to
contact me with any questions or
concerns. And I thank you for your
continued support as I take this next
step in ministry.

Mission Update
This Lent we are considering ways we can give ourselves more fully to Jesus, our Lord. We are called,
each one of us, to be everyday missionaries with Him. I hope you are reading the testimonies in the
Lenten devotions and praying about how Jesus is calling you to be on mission with Him. If you have a
story you would like to share, there are still a few days open. Drop your story off at the church office or
send to my email. beth.rogers@mjbrowns.com What gifts has God given you? What is a need that the
Holy Spirit is placing on your heart? Is there a friend that can join you in serving Jesus today?
Blessings ~ Beth Rogers
Recent missionary activities:
 Sock of Love project completed with warm socks and personal care items going to the homeless in
Calvert County.

18 homeless guests fed and given a warm, clean and safe place to sleep.
 Spare change donated to Heart F.E.L.T. backpack ministry and S.M.I.L.E.
 Passion Play preparations begun. Contact andy.rogers@mjbrowns.com if you would like to be a
missionary by sharing the Good News to our neighbors as part of the play.
Missional idea: Fix broken things. This can be a symbol of our spiritual brokenness which Jesus came to
heal. Help a neighbor mend a fence or repair something around the house or yard. Pick up trash or grab
a group of believers and not-yet-believers to clean up a park. Pray to understand how the gospel is
echoed in your cleaning, fixing, renewing and serving. Always be ready to explain this when asked. (From
A Field Guide to Everyday Mission by Ben Connelly and Bod Roberts Jr.)

On February 2, St. Paul Youth Ministries hosted the first St. Paul Families & Friends Super
Bowl Party and Chili Cook-off in several years. It was a GREAT TIME in the joy of the Lord as
we ate/visited/cheered/moaned together (still can’t believe the Seahawks didn’t run the
ball!) as we also enjoyed some KILLER Chili recipes! Thanks to all who had any part of
putting on and attending the event and HUGE WELCOME/GLAD U CAME to those who we
were blessed to meet for the first time. AWESOME to now be a larger and more effective
church family as you are with us! Oh yeah, Chili Cook-off winners were all us who got to eat!
Favorite recipes went to: Dennis Mulvey, Ben Mead, and Sarah Miller. Each of the “fave
cookers” received a can of chili ingredients to encourage them (and we mean heavily
encourage them!) to “bring the soup” again next year!
If you were
“assigned” to do one
small thing in order to
start a revolution of
God’s love, what
would you do?

February 6, 7 and 8 found 30 of our group in Ocean City, MD for the annual Baltimore
Washington Conference Youth “ROCK Retreat!” The weekend consists of sick…and “sick”
is “good”…3.5 hour rides together in a van pool, fully “decorated” revealing our destination,
Friday night/2 Saturday/Sunday morning “Big Room” worship and learning sessions with
speaker Reggie Dabbs and two separate praise bands, student drama ministry, a mass
intergenerational choir, break-out learning sessions, and Holy Communion with Bishop
Marcus Matthews. Oh yeah, we did our traditional Saturday lunch at Dumser’s Drive In and
time on the boardwalk and on the ice rink at our hotel. Some notable quotes from the
weekend: “Jesus sees in the dark, because before there was light, Jesus IS light.” “If you
can’t see the answer, Jesus IS the answer.” “What makes you young is ‘hope.’ The future
doesn’t belong to the young, the future makes you young!” “The most significant two days
in your life are the day you were born and the day you figure out why!” Huge Praise God’s
to all of you in our St. Paul Family who helped make this trip possible with your prayers,
love, and
support. A very special thanks to the adult advisor team who journeyed
through the weekend with our AWESOME UPRISING UTH! If you want to see some of the
“goings-on” at ROCK2015, go to: http://bwcumc.org/rock/.
On February 15th we gathered our families as one big family at our St. Paul Youth Ministries
Quarterly Pot Luck Dinner Meeting. After eating together and visiting/catching up with one
another, we took a look at the Uprising Uth Ministry schedule for the rest of 2015, then
joined forces to form the “St. Paul Uprising Uth Safe Nights Sandwich Factory,” preparing
lunches for St. Paul’s Safe Nights Ministry guests for the coming week. The group also
gathered several times during the week to prepare additional lunches. We remain blessed
to be part of this all-church ministry to our homeless friends as our St. Paul Family provided
much needed warm spaces during one of the, if not the, coldest week of winter 2015 as we
journey together to “Change The World” for our Savior Jesus Christ!
February 22, we joined in The Zone for Uprising! to begin a series of meetings that will
focus on “Jesus as Rebel.” Based on Pastor Mike Slaughter’s “The Renegade Gospel,”
we’ll be exploring the Jesus presented in the gospels with a particular look at how “that
Jesus” differs from Jesus as we picture and perceive Him. We began by simply discussing
“who and what” we see and think about whenever we hear our Savior’s name. Proceeding
from there, we observed both pictures of Jesus we had brought in from our homes as well
as a slide show collection of about 30 pictures from other sources. Using those to center
us, we broke into smaller groups and discussed questions such as: What picture “looked
most like Jesus” to you? Why do U think that is? Do you ever think of Jesus as a “rebel?” If
so, what makes you think of Him that way? If not, how do you think of Jesus? Sometimes
we call “rebels” whose actions change the world “revolutionaries.” Would anyone describe
you as a “revolutionary?” Would you describe yourself that way? If you were “assigned” to
do one small thing in order to start a revolution of God’s love, what would you do?

St. Patrick's Day Trivia
You may know that St. Patrick used shamrocks to teach about the Trinity, but did you know these other
facts about him?
• St. Patrick wasn’t Irish. (His parents were Roman citizens living in either Scotland or Wales.)
• He was kidnapped and sold as a slave at age 16. After escaping six years later, he joined a monastery in
England.
• March 17 is the date of St. Patrick’s death, not his birth. He died in 461 A.D.
• The color originally associated with St. Patrick is blue, not green.
• The harp, not the shamrock, is the national symbol of Ireland.
