Dear Siblings in Christ,
        The verdict is now in. Derek Chauvin was found guilty of three counts
in the murder of George Floyd. That a conviction of a police officer in the
wrongful death of a black man has finally come to pass and perhaps even set
precedent brings relief and sense of justice for many. But for others, there is
no joy. A verdict such as this is long overdue. An innocent man is still dead.
Families and loved ones still grieve. Many still live in fear of the police. Yes,
the man who killed him is being held responsible for this particular death, but what about all the
others? What about all the other young black men and women who have been needlessly killed at
the hands of police?
        I must say, when I heard the news, I felt conflicted. On the one hand, I was glad Mr.
Chauvin will be held accountable for what he did. But on the other hand, this conviction is only one
among so many that have not happened, and likely never will. Where is justice for all those
families? For Trayvon Martin and Breonna Taylor? For Daunte Wright and Sandra Bland? And what
about all the others, the now hundreds of names that are read and remembered at BLM protests?
Where is the justice for them? Where is reconciliation for these communities? How do they put their
lives back together now that their loved ones are dead and never coming home? Such thoughts
make my heart ache.
        But I am conflicted in other ways, too. We live in a culture that loves violence. We are
entertained by it in video games and movies. We glorify it by having violence as the leading story in
the news simply because stories like that lead to higher ratings. Perhaps even more troubling, we
still buy into the Old Testament theology of “an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.” We forget
that Jesus has told us this way of thinking is not the Way of the Cross. In Matthew 5:38-42, Jesus
says quite plainly:
      You have heard that it was said, “An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.” But I say to
      you, do not resist an evildoer. But if anyone strikes you on the right cheek, turn the other
      also; and if anyone wants to sue you and take your coat, give your cloak as well; and if
      anyone forces you to go one mile, go also the second mile. Give to everyone who begs from
      you, and do not refuse anyone who wants to borrow from you.
We have forgotten that the “eye for an eye” theology of the Hebrew Scriptures was never meant to
be “prescriptive” (this is what you should do) but rather it was intended to be “descriptive” (let the
punishment be proportionate to the crime). If we truly lived by this law, most of the world would be
blind and toothless!
        We forget that Jesus came among us to show us there is a better way. First of all, he wants
us to learn to see the humanity in one another. To see each other for what we are: children of God!
He wants us to learn and remember that whether black, brown, Asian, white, or purple with pink
polka dots, we are all human, living beings that are worthy of love, life, respect, and liberty. It
doesn’t matter who you are or what you have done, these things always apply. They are all part of
human dignity.
        And perhaps even more importantly, a person is always and forever a child of God. Even
someone like Derek Chauvin is a child of God. Even someone who has committed terrible sins is not
beyond the reach of God’s grace. If we say otherwise, then we are also saying that there is
something more powerful than the love of God, and THAT is simply false. God is God. God is love.
God is all powerful and all mighty. There is nothing that is more powerful than God. Period. Full stop.

                                                   2
THE STAND ST. ANDREW'S LUTHERAN CHURCH - ST. ANDREW'S LUTHERAN CHURCH
Now that is not to say there are not consequences to our choices. Derek Chauvin killed a
man and he must be held accountable. We will find out what that will look like in about 8 weeks.
But perhaps in time, he will come to see why what he did was wrong and have a change of heart.
God is good at that. God is good at changing human hearts, and God is very good at miracles – it is
what God does best! If God can raise Jesus from the dead, God can also change a hateful heart.
        Second, we see how powerful a word of forgiveness can be. When Jesus is hanging on the
cross, he could have done any number of things to change that outcome. He could have called upon
the angels to come set him free. He could have rained down fire from heaven upon those who had
tortured him. But he didn’t do any of that. Instead, he asked God to forgive those men, because
they honestly did not realize they were crucifying the Son of the Living God.
        Jesus came among us to show us how to forgive. Forgiveness is one of the hardest things we
will ever give away to anyone, especially to someone who is not sorry for what they have done, or
to someone whom we feel does not deserve
to be forgiven. There are 3 issues with that
way of thinking: 1) it again implies some-
thing is more powerful than the love of God,
2) it sets us up as “judge and jury” over the
sins of another, and 3) if we fail to forgive,
we are the ones who end up being shackled
to the issue, not the person who committed
the sin.
        We live in very challenging times,
times that are sadly a lot of our own making.
As I said before, there are consequences to
our choices, and some of our troubles today are the results of decades of historically bad choices.
Eventually, as it is said, “all chickens come home to roost.” But we can have hope in our faith that
violence does not get the last word on our lives. Jesus does, the One who was and is The Word
(logos) who      became flesh and lived among us. He lived, he loved, he taught, he died, and he
rose again to help us better understand who God is and what God is all about: love. Pure, unde-
served, all-encompassing love. May we learn to live this love, just as Jesus did.
Walking with you along The Way,
Pastor Kim

MINISTRY OF THE MONTH FOR MAY
During May we will be supporting the Husker Pantry located on the 1st floor of the UNL Health
Center. Food insecurities are a reality for 1 in 3 college students on the UNL campus; they worry
about not having enough food until they get money to buy more. This month the Husker Pantry is
especially in need of:

             Applesauce                  Canned Garbanzo Beans             Canned Fruit
             Canned Vegetables           Cereal                            Crackers/Chips
             Jelly/Jam                   Pancake Mix & Syrup               Pasta Sauce

Please place your items on the table inside the door by the church office. Isaiah 58:7 says, “If
you give some of your own food to those who are hungry and to satisfy those who are humble,
                            then your light will rise in the dark.....”

                            Thanks to all for your continued support of St. Andrew’s Ministry of the
                            Month!

                    Thank you, St. Andrew’s, for your prayers, phone calls, and cards regarding
                    the loss of our son-in-law, Richard Lans, our daughter Trudy’s husband.
                    Memorial services were held in Colorado Springs on April 5 and in Stamford,
                    NE, at his home church, on April 10.

Crisis in the
          Middle East
The situation:
Instability in several Middle Eastern countries has caused humanitarian crises throughout the
region:
 In Syria, the ongoing civil war has pushed millions of people into poverty and caused rampant
   inflation. Over 11 million Syrians are in need of humanitarian assistance, and many have fled to
   neighboring countries.
 In Iraq, the conflict with ISIL has internally displaced more than 1.4 million Iraqis, many of
   whom live in refugee camps. In addition, 253,000 Syrian refugees have settled in Iraq.
 Jordan hosts refugees from many countries, the largest group being over 660,000 Syrian
    refugees. Eighty-six percent of these refugees live below the poverty line.
 Lebanon is three years into an economic crisis, its recession only worsened by the COVID-19
   pandemic, an influx of Syrian refugees, the Beirut port explosion and political turmoil.
Needs throughout these countries include food and nonfood items, water facilities, livelihood
opportunities, and health and psychosocial support. In addition to the existing crises in these
countries, COVID-19 has exacerbated the humanitarian needs of the most vulnerable populations.
Our response:
Lutheran Disaster Response is supporting ACT Alliance appeals for Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon and Syria.
Implementing partners — such as the Lutheran World Federation, the Evangelical Lutheran Church
in Jordan and the Holy Land, and the Middle East Council of Churches with its Department of
Service to Palestinian Refugees — will provide humanitarian support for people affected by the
ongoing conflicts. The responses will develop the resilience of refugees, returnees, internally
displaced people, and host communities through the improvement of water, sanitation and hygiene
(WASH) services, vocational training, cash assistance and education opportunities.
What you can do:
Pray
Please pray for people who have been affected by Middle East crises. May God's healing presence
give them peace and hope in their time of need.

Give
Your gifts designated for “Middle East Crisis” will be used entirely (100%) to provide long-lasting
support for those whose lives have been impacted by crises in the Middle East.

IGHL
                     COUNCIL HIGHLIGHTS APRIL 2021
1. Council discussed allowing groups to serve food. Council recommended Charlotte Burke
   consult with the Food Team at the Health Department and establish some guidelines for us.
   These guidelines will be made available to the congregation as soon as they are ready.
2. Bathrooms in the hallway (next to the coffee bar) are now available for congregational use
   on Sundays. Please continue to wear your mask when in the building and sanitize your hands
   when finished.
3. 1st Quarter Food Pantry Stats: 376 families were served, or 1116 boxes of food were sent
   out. 2109 pounds of food were donated, including from St. Andrew’s. 13 people volunteer
   each week to box and sort the food, or 156 volunteers over 3 months. This does not count
   Tom & Lynn Ochsner’s volunteer hours, nor does it include the food runners from area
   churches.
4. Due to an uptick of traffic in the parking lot, as well as shenanigans and vandalism by local
   youth, Council is exploring installing security cameras in the west parking lot. Signs for
   camera surveillance will be installed in the meantime.
5. We have received a bid for $2100.00 to fix the leaks in the flat part of the roof.
6. Pastor Kim has been elected Dean of the Lincoln Area Mission Cluster.
7 Regular giving in March was $7,411.07 over the budget estimate. Year to date regular giving
   is over the budget estimate by $8,202.05. Special giving for March was $3,209.04.
8. Checking Balance Starting $11,582.86 and Ending $11,535.16. Savings balance starting
   $45,406.59 and ending $45,406.98. Greg transferred $6,000.00 from checking to savings on
   March 31st, and it did not make it on the statement for March. This completes what was
   used to meet our cash flow needs last summer. Payments made in March and so far in April
   that are not part of our regular expenses but not out of norm include:
          — Action Plumbing for kitchen sink faucet in the amount of $211.76
          — Krauter-Bosn for pressure valves in the amount of $1072.00
          — Peoples City Mission $465.00 (Thanksgiving giving)
          — Matt Talbot $802.50 (Christmas giving)

Adoption of Revised Agenda
Jody moved and Cindy seconded to adopt a revised agenda. Motion passed with a unanimous voice

New Business
      • Holy Week Offering Designation (added to the original agenda).
Jody moved and Charlotte seconded to designate the Holy Week offering to the UNL Lutheran
Student Health Center “Cross at the Heart” campaign. Motion passed with a unanimous voice vote.

Old Business
       ● Outstanding Property Needs
Pastor mentioned she had to mop up a very small amount of water in the craft room following the
recent heavy rains. Charlotte Pasco has been in touch with a roofer. Pastor mentioned she
received information about a handicapped “Accessibility Grant.” The grant information suggests
churches west of Grand Island will be given preference. Discussions have been held in the past
about motorizing building entrance doors for improved handicapped accessibility. Jonathan
indicated we may have difficulty securing bids prior to the application deadline. There was no
further discussion.
       ● Staffing Needs
Our accompanist Mandy West has expressed interest in the worship leader vacancy. Pastor stated
most members of the Council-approved search and interview committee have been unavailable
recently because of spring break schedules. A time will be found for the committee to meet with
Mandy as soon as possible.
       ● Congregational Check Calls
Council discussed how to help Pastor recruit additional call volunteers and inspire others to assist.
Jody suggested that perhaps more spontaneous organic connections are happening that people
may not be aware of. Jim suggested check in calls may become less important as we slowly begin
to reopen.

                                                  10
● COVID and Returning to Worship

also stated the worship band will be inside. More volunteers than usual will be needed. As of now
Pastor plans to conduct worship in the parking lot at least through the end of May. We may return
to in-person worship in June or July. Pastor is planning a vacation day on Sunday April 11 so
worship that day will be Zoom only – no parking lot. Annette thanked Pastor and the tech experts
for their assistance and expertise. Also, Pastor stated there will be no palms for the congregation
for Palm Sunday.
                Future Technology
Jonathan has secured webcams for Easter Sunday use.
                Small Groups
Jonathan stated building use requests from Troop 159, Pack 59, the Daylily Society, two Bible Study
Groups (Circles), and the Men’s Bible Study group have been approved. The Girl Scouts have also
requested to use the building and the request will be considered by the Exec Team.

PASTOR’S REPORT APRIL 2021
1. Wanda Grothen requested a membership transfer to United Lutheran Church.
2. Dave Hahn continues to improve at Bryan West. He is off the ventilator, and the trach was
   removed April 14.
3. Worship in the parking lot on Easter Sunday was a huge success! We had 85 in the parking lot
   and 35 online, for a total of 120. I am looking forward to more Sundays together outside,
   especially as the weather warms up.
4. Wednesday nights at 6pm I am teaching a Bible Study on the Psalms. This should last through
   mid-June, and then we will move on to something else for the rest of the summer. The group
   has voted to continue to meet on Zoom for now.
5. Confirmation continues to be held on Wednesday nights at 7:30pm. This will conclude May 19.
   Parents have asked to continue on Zoom for the remainder of the semester.
6. Thursday nights at 7pm, we are having a discussion of “The Chosen,” which is a 100% privately
   donated TV show on the life of Jesus. (It is best to view this on The Chosen app, but it is also
   available on YouTube, if you’re interested. It is worth your time to watch it.) This group also
   meets on Zoom.
7. The Girl Scouts have decided to donate their unsold cookies to The Lutheran Food Pantry. I met
   with them on Friday, April 16. Tom and Lynn Ochsner were also there and gave them a tour and
   a short presentation on the Pantry, how many families we serve, etc.
