DECEMBER 2012 

the Messenger 

RESURRECTION LUTHERAN CHURCH 

Make your shadow like night—at high noon. Hide the fugitives, do not betray the refugees. 

Let the Moabite fugitives stay with you; be their shelter from the destroyer. 

Isaiah 16:3-4a 

Among the seasonal songs that saturate December is the earnest ballad announcing that I’ll Be Home for Christmas. This is 

not a given, and not every person or family can manage it. 

Meet Joe and Mary. Imperial edict has decreed a census in which everyone must be counted in their place of origin, so those 

living elsewhere must up and go regardless of whatever else they have planned. Political decisions often have profound, 

disruptive impacts on people’s lives; if you don’t believe me, ask a family whose daughter or son will be spending this 

Christmas in Afghanistan. For Mary and Joe, a young couple expecting their first child, it means a trip to backwater 

Bethlehem while she is nine months pregnant. They are too poor to afford a sport utility donkey, so she’ll have to bounce 

along on the old beater the entire way. 

When at last they arrive, the contractions are only a few minutes apart and the doors keep closing. There is no welcome 

among family, and there is no vacancy at the Comfort Inn or the Mary-ought. There are no hospitals or maternity wards in 

this sad excuse for a town, so they end up in a cattle stall—basically, an ancient world garage that looks and smells like a 

barn—where young Mary gives birth to her first child, beds him down in a trough, and then works with Joe to make sure the 

animals don’t try to eat him. 

This baby is so special, and this story is so familiar, that is quite possible that we miss both the terror in the ordeal and the 

fact that this story is not so unique at all. A haunting exhibit now at St. Francis Retreat Center in Dewitt, Michigan chronicles 

in art and text the separation and struggle of another Jewish family during the Holocaust. Anne Roberts told me the story of a 

relative having to rescue a very pregnant woman who does not own a car from New York City days before Hurricane Sandy 

hit; she was able to get out and find a place a bit more sanitary than Mary did to deliver her baby. Others are not so fortunate, 

particularly those who are fleeing war or oppression or persecution in various places around the globe. Maybe they are in a 

place where being a follower of Joe and Mary’s child is against the law. Political decisions often have profound, disruptive 

impacts on people’s lives. 

This is why Lutherans in Chicago have long worked to welcome refugees, to find room for them in the inn. We at 

Resurrection were part of the sanctuary movement in the 1980s for those forced to flee El Salvador. Since 1939, Lutheran 

Immigration and Refugee Services has been actively placing displaced families in new homes and supporting them in the 

long, bumpy ride toward a new life. Now we have an opportunity to do the same work locally with RefugeeOne. 

Together with other congregations of our Metropolitan Chicago Synod, we at Resurrection will work to support the 

resettlement ministry of RefugeeOne in the coming year. Our children are already leading the way, dedicating this year’s 

Sunday School offerings to RefugeeOne. We also hope to sponsor a family in early 2013. To that end, Nora Brathol has 

submitted a grant application to our Mission Endowment Fund and worked with Sonja Burseth, Chris Helland, and Nathaniel 

Viets-VanLear to plan the Welcoming Isaiah 16 project being launched this month. You can read more specifics on page 3. 

Let’s be someone’s home for Christmas. Let’s provide shelter from the destroyer. Let’s make room in the inn. It may just be 

that we find ourselves welcoming Jesus.

MISSION STATEMENT 

Resurrection Lutheran Church invites and welcomes 

all people to hear God's word, share our faith, and 

celebrate the sacraments. Through music, liturgy, and 

fellowship, we embrace diversity, nurture children, 

advocate justice, and praise God. This is our response 

to the Gospel. 

COUNCIL MEETING HIGHLIGHTS 

November 14, 2012 

* We are exploring the cost of paraments with Alma’s 

bequest. We will be pricing Advent paraments first, and 

possibly Lenten paraments as well. We will also assess 

needs in the kitchen. Thanks to all for your suggestions! 

Council will bring a proposal to the 2013 annual meeting. 

* We have also been gifted by memorials for Donna 

Johnson and council is currently deliberating the use of 

these gifts as well. Feel free to offer suggestions to Pastor 

Brian or to any council member. 

* Chris Letkewicz and the finance committee have begun 

the budgeting process for next year. We discussed 

preliminary numbers at the November meeting and will 

spend most of the meeting in December on the budget 

proposal to bring to the annual meeting in January. 

* We continued our discussion of the RAP program. JCYS 

and Concordia have also noted declining enrollment; 

Concordia has closed their after-school program. We have 

committed to continuing the RAP program through mid- 

April unless there is a significant decline in enrollment 

prior to that time (concurrent with open enrollment in the 

Right at School program at Hawthorne). Executive 

committee and finance committee are continuing to work 

with Debbie Mytych through this process. 

The next council meeting will be December 13 at 7pm.

Welcoming Isaiah 16: 

Answering God’s Call to Welcome Refugees 

In partnership with other congregations in our synod, 

Lutheran Refugee and Immigration Services, and 

RefugeeOne, RLC is starting a new outreach ministry to 

refugee families in our community, with the goal of 

sponsoring two refugee families in 2013. This will be 

kicked off in December of 2012 with a collection drive to 

provide basic apartment items like toiletries and bedding 

(see the list below). Most refugees arrive with little but the 

clothes on their backs and need everything from paper 

stamps to light bulbs. CTA cards, retail gift cards, and 

especially cash donations are also welcomed (gift cards 

can be used as educational tools on how to navigate the 

CTA, identify sale items at the store, or to purchase items 

needed by the family that were not donated). Donations 

can be brought to Resurrection and placed in the 

collection box in front of the altar throughout Advent. 

If you have any questions, ideas, or would like to donate 

larger items like furniture, please email 

rlcrefugeeministry@gmail.com. Thank you for helping 

provide a safe and furnished home for refugees this 

Christmas! 

Needed Items Include: 

toothpaste and toothbrushes 

feminine hygiene products 

soap, shampoo and conditioner, deodorant 

diapers and wipes 

kitchen sponges, dish towels, dish soap 

Kleenex, paper towels, toilet paper 

bath and hand towels 

garbage cans and bags (kitchen 13 gal and bathroom) 

twin and full size sheet sets 

comforters and throw blankets 

cleaning supplies (mop/bucket, broom, all purpose 

cleaners) 

stamps 

tape, notebooks, pens and pencils 

alarm clocks 

light bulbs 

CTA cards 

Walgreens/Target or grocery store gift cards

WHEN YOU WISH UPON A BLUE SHEET… 

Do you remember the blue inserts in our bulletins this 

summer that gave us the opportunity to share what “I 

wish we did…” and what “I wish we had…”? Council 

remembers, and we’ve compiled the results into a few 

lists. Now we want your involvement in helping us move 

from “I wish…” to “We’re going to…” Please join us for 

breakfast and conversation between services at 9:40am 

on Sunday, December 16 th . We’ll look at all the 

suggestions from our fellow worshipers and develop our 

priority list for programs, activities and items. Your input 

and appetite are expected! If you cannot join us that day, 

but have additional thoughts that you didn’t have a 

chance to share on the blue sheets, please contact Kathy 

Young at kaky_yci@yahoo.com or 773‐528‐7528.

Resurrection is invited to 

The Art Institute of Chicago! 

Christina Nielsen invites fellow 

RLC members for a special, one time 

only tour of the Art Institute’s new 

exhibition, Late Roman and Early Byzantine Treasures from the 

British Museum. The artworks on loan from London reflect 

the splendor of wealthy households and important 

ecclesiastical sites in Rome, Constantinople, Alexandria, 

and Antioch between 350-700 A.D. They were produced 

during a time of great structural shifts in the later Roman 

Empire, as Constantinople replaced Rome as the imperial 

capital and as Christianity became the official imperial 

religion. While the objects themselves were employed in a 

variety of civic, domestic, and sacred contexts, they 

nevertheless allow for an exploration of the ways in which 

classical subjects both co-existed and competed with 

early Christian iconography. 

The tour will take place on Thursday, January 24 at 

6pm. Because space is limited, the first fifteen people to 

email Christina at cnielsen1@artic.edu will be guaranteed 

a place on the tour. Please note: museum admission is $18 

per person. 

November 

Financial Report 

YTD Budget YTD 

Offering/Giving $251,732.17 $248,938.00 

All Other Income 161,183.10 164,400.00 

Total Income $412,915.27 $3413,338.00 

Total Expenses $403,904.15 $425,041.00 

Net Income $9,011.12 ($11,703.00) 

• Overall, we are in really good shape budget wise. We 

are now ahead for year in offerings, which is great news 

after being behind all year. 

• Expenses are well below budget for a couple of reasons. 

First, SummerFest made a profit instead of the net 

expense we budgeted for. Second, expenses for supplies, 

utilities and instrument repair are well below budget.

Chris Letkewicz, Treasurer

The Night Ministry compassionately provides housing, 

health care, outreach, spiritual care, and social services to 

adults and youth who struggle with homelessness, poverty 

and loneliness. We accept individuals as they are and 

offer support as they seek to improve their lives. We invite 

others to join this hope-filled work. 


Dear Kacie, Mike, Ann, Katharine, Harvey! 

Thank you so much for your efforts tonight. You 

spirit and smiles were welcomed. The sandwiches, drinks, 

sandwiches and especially cookies were delicious – we 

are very gracious for your efforts! We very much look 

forward to working with you again soon. 

The Night Ministry 

Thank you for your partnership! 

LITTLE DRESSES FOR LITTLE GIRLS 

If you or others you know might be traveling to areas 

where orphanages need help, we can give you little 

girl’s sun dresses to deliver (12 dresses take up less 

than half of a small suitcase). So far, over 125 

dresses from RLC sewers have been delivered to 

Rwanda, Peru, and El Salvador. Look for the some of 

the dresses to be modeled soon as we celebrate our 

own blessings and forever families during the 

holidays. Girls who have clean clothes can go to 

school, are more likely to marry later, earn more 

money and have children that stay in school longer. 

Please contact Anne Roberts at 312/627-6711 if you 

can help!



Israel: 

ELCA, others request a review of U.S. military aid 

Concerned about the deteriorating conditions in 

Israel and the occupied Palestinian territories and 

the commitment for a just peace, the Rev. Mark 

Hanson, presiding bishop of the ELCA, and other 

U.S. Christian leaders are urging Congress to 

conduct an investigation into possible human rights 

and weapon violations by the government of Israel. 

Read more at www.ELCA.org/investigation. 

Hurricane Sandy: 

ELCA provides and receives aid 

In the wake of the devastation in the U.S. from the 

storms spawned by Hurricane Sandy, the ELCA is 

for the first time receiving international aid from The 

Lutheran World Federation. Through ELCA Disaster 

Response, this church is also providing relief to the 

storm-damaged areas of the U.S. and the 

Caribbean. Read more at www.ELCA.org/Sandy-aid 

and www.ELCA.org/Sandy-response. 

ELCA Good Gifts 

What is the best gift you ever received? It was probably 

given out of love. Love comes to us as a gift from God, 

and we are called to share it with others. The best gifts are 

those that deepen our relationships with one another. 

They are unexpected. They are filled with love. And, they 

are impossible to wrap. 

ELCA Good Gifts make great gifts for your loved ones and 

carry that love on to others, making a difference in their 

lives and the world. Take a few moments to explore the 

catalog, and discover the life-changing ministry we do 

together as a response to Christ’s love in our lives. You 

can give a gift right now to support the work of ELCA 

World Hunger. 

The Season of Giving 

This holiday season, Resurrection thanks 

everyone who has supported us this past year 

with their time, talent and financial 

contributions and look forward to support from 

all of our members in the year ahead. If you 

need a convenient way to make regular 

offerings or if you plan to make an additional gift before 

the end of the year, we encourage you to check out our 

electronic giving options. As the pace of life speeds up, 

especially around the holidays, you may find electronic 

giving a most welcome way to make contributions. Visit 

http://www.rlclakeview.com/Pages/Ways+to+Give or 

contact the church office at 773/525-0605 for more 

information. 

A Jazz Nativity 

Saturday, Dec. 8 @ 4pm 

Saint Luke Church, 1500 W. Belmont 

Admission and parking are free. Free will offering 

benefits The Anti-Cruelty Society, and adoptable pets 

will be available before and after the show. Come early 

for a Pet Blessing at 3:30pm! For more information, 

visit www.stlukechicago.org or call 773/472-3383. 

Make Your House Fair as You Are Able… 

The words in a favorite Advent hymn are good advice for all 

of us at Resurrection. Our campus gets a lot of traffic 

throughout the week, with many different groups using our 

space, pedestrians walking by, and litter riding the wind 

before settling into our yard. Since we cut cleaning services 

to save money, it is often too much for Maurice (or any one 

person) to keep up with…especially when he is on vacation! 

You can help. If you see trash, pick it up. If you see 

something amiss, fix it, and if you don’t know how, please 

notify the office. (Pastor is especially prone to overlook 

things he sees every day.) Remember that Resurrection is not 

only God’s house, it’s also yours…so make your house fair 

as you are able! Thank you for your help.
