For Christmas last year, I got an UP band by Jawbone. The UP band is one of the activity trackers like Fit Bit, Nike Fuel band, etc. These bands are like pedometers and track how many steps you take, they also track sleep and can track food that you. The reason that these types of bands have become somewhat popular is that they track several things so that you will know how well you sleep, how active you are, etc. One of the features on my band is that I can set the band to vibrate if I have been inactive for a specific period of time. The rationale is that it is a subtle reminder that I should get up and take a short walk or at least move around some. Also, by tracking my steps, it helps keeps me on track for trying to reach my goal of 10,000 steps a day. When I sync my band and it tells me how many steps I have taken, it serves as a reminder that I may need to take more steps to reach my goal.
The reason I am writing about this band; is it got me thinking about what helps serve as a reminder to pray. What helps keep me on track for praying everyday and reminds me to be attentive to my prayer life?
I remember some years ago, there was a practice that gained some popularity of passing out little dots that had adhesive on the back. The instructions were to take the dot and put it on your watch so that every time, you looked at your watch you would be reminded to pray. In our day and age, it would be to put it on our cell phone.
Others may use a necklace or a bracelet that has a cross or some other symbol or phrase that would do the same thing. Many years ago, people wore something that had the phrase WWJD (what would Jesus do) or FROG (fully rely on God). Others still would carry a small cross with them in their pocket. These also serve the same function as a reminder to be attentive to our spiritual life.
Some may not need these types of reminders, but often even with good intentionspeople get busy and it is easy to forget to pray or not be as prayerful as we might want to be.
My goal in writing on prayer this month is for you to be attentive to your own prayer life and think about what might be helpful to use to serve as a reminder to be in prayer regularly and often. We do not need to rely upon fads like some of the ways in the pastthe key is what works for you. What is it that will serve as your own reminder to be in prayer. It could be something I mentioned, it could be scheduling it into your day planner, or it could be something completely different. The goal is simply to have something that re- minds us to be in prayer.
Keep on praying in the new year! 2014 1 Karen Wiesehan 1 Dan Davis 1 Jean Floyd 1 Carrie Schepman 2 Ronnie Herkamp 2 Susie Alstatt 2 Kylie Eglen 3 Jan Otte 6 Susan Helwig 7 Marilyn Tangman 7 Edward DeVoe 8 Grace Otte 9 Joe Tormoehlen 9 Gwen Newkirk 10 Dan Hoene 11 Anna Holle 11 Charlena Warfield 11 Sara Rapp 11 Tiffany Otte 11 Joshua Rotert 12 Jennifer Benter 12 Cole Fosbrink 13 Garrett Alstatt 13 Lainey Jackson 14 Paul Hoene 14 Alex Rust 15 Perry Reichenba 16 Doug Hoene 16 Regina Bambrick Rust 16 Meagon Price 16 Chris McIntire 16 Leah Wente 17 Kent Carr 17 Darren Carr 18 Ruth Ann Hendrix 18 Penny Heater 18 Melody Black 18 Angel Wente 19 Kathy Littleton 19 Matt Claycamp 20 Bill Neidinger 20 Adam Engelau 20 Abigail Hoevener 20 Melissa Christian 21 Donald Schnitker 22 Lou Ann Wyatt 22 Macy Rotert 22 Desiree Steinkamp 22 Cheyenne Douglass 23 Nina Franke 23 Zachary Lawles 24 Susan Holle 24 Jamie Baer 25 Roger Huffman 25 Luke Tormoehlen 25 Seth Douglass 28 John Wyatt 29 Jarred Holland 29 Leo Baker 30 Dan Claycamp June Volunteers Greeters Merrell and Sara Otte (8:00) John and Amy Pierceall (10:15) Communion Assistants Merrell Otte (8:00) Bill Wonning (10:15) Altar Care June 1 & 15-Linda Seitz June 8-Sara Otte (8:00) June 22-Linda Rust (8:00) Lectors June 1-Jamie Baker (8:00) Judy Wonning (10:15) June 8-Lou Ann Hoevener (8:00) Hannah Davis (10:15) June 15-Mark Rorick (8:00) Amy Rotert (10:15) June 22-Mandy Rorick (8:00) Jack Tormoehlen (10:15) June 29-Doris Rorick (8:00) Amy Pierceall (10:15) Acolytes June 1-Maggie Newkirk (8:00) Lyra Claycamp (10:15) June 8-Cole Fosbrink (8:00) Tyson Lawles (10:15) June 15-Adam Newkirk (8:00) Dylan Hatfield (10:15) June 22-Anna Holle (8:00) Cheyenne Douglass (10:15) June 29-Morgan Jones (8:00) Rachel Hildebrand (10:15) Projectors June 1-Kaelen Eglen (8:00) John Pierceall (10:15) June 8-Madison Jones (8:00) Hannah Wood (10:15) June 15-Jamie Baker (8:00) Jack Tormoehlen (10:15) June 22-Doris Rorick (8:00) Chloe Bryden (10:15) June 29-Kaelen Eglen (8:00) Kailee Hildebrand (10:15) Flowers June 1-Roger & Delores Douglass June 8 & 15-Sara Otte June 22 & 29-Shirley Lewis Childrens SermonLeah Otte Welcome Center-Luci Angel (8:00) Linda Seitz (10:15) July Volunteers Greeters Mark and Doris Rorick (8:00) Milton and Laberta Otte (10:15) Communion Assistants Leah Otte (8:00) Dan Davis(10:15) Altar Care July 6-Judy Wonning July 20-Nina Franke July 13 Doris Rorick July 27-Lou Ann Hoevener Lectors July 6-Leah Otte (8:00) Karen Davis (10:15) July 13-Lois Bryden (8:00) Laberta Otte (10:15) July 20-Jodi Brown (8:00) Marc Fountain (10:15) July 27-Dot Goodwin (8:00) Leon Seitz (10:15) Acolytes July 6-Courtney Mansfield (8:00) Eli Wood (10:15) July 13-Kori Otte (8:00) Sarah Davis (10:15) July 20-Eliana Baker (8:00) Ariel Douglass (10:15) July 27-Erin Otte (8:00) Lyra Claycamp (10:15) Projectors July 6- (8:00) Marc Fountain (10:15) July 13-Jamie Baker (8:00) John Pierceall (10:15) Flowers July 6-Need volunteer July 13 & 20-Susie Schnitker July 20 & Aug. 3-Linda Guinn Childrens SermonLou Ann Hoevner Welcome Center-Tammi Reinbold (8:00) Laberta Otte (10:15) WHITLEY ALLISON RIEKER was baptized on May 11, 2014.

June 1 st : Text Philippians 2:1-13 Within this letter of Paul to the believers in Philippi, Paul is encouraging the people to be of the same mind as Jesus Christ. What this means is that we are to be like Jesus, who gave up everything to bring redemption to the world and was fully obedient to God.
June 8 th : TextActs 2:1-21 Today brings an end to this year of the narrative lectionary. We have heard the Biblical Story from creation to the crea- tion of the churchthe believers in the mighty act of God in Jesus Christ who are empowered with the Holy Spirit. This text is to commission us to go in the power of the Spirit to follow in the footsteps of the Apostles proclaiming the gospel and being the presence of Christ in our own community.
June 15 th : TextEphesians 1:1-14 Today, we begin a four week series on the book of Ephesians. The message of the book is that it is God, who is at work in Jesus Christ to put in place a plan for salvation. The letter emphasizes grace and redemption. In the section we hear this day, it lifts up the idea that God was planning something big before we knew it.
June 22 nd : Text Ephesians 2:11-22 The author continues the theme of grace and redemption by helping the readers to understand that Gods plan was neces- sary because of the estrangement humanity knew from God and one another. And this division is broken down by Christ.
June 29 th : Text Ephesians 4:1-16 In this part of the letter, the author moves on to what it means for our lives that God has provided for the redemption of humanity. Because of being given grace, God has gifted us and desires for us to use these gifts for the building up of the body of Christ. God desires us to not always be children but to mature in the faith and live this faith out in daily life. Upcoming Worship Below are the lessons and some thoughts about the upcoming Sundays.
