Good news for Peace April 27

 

Hello friends of Peace,

What a wonderful Easter! Thanks for celebrating with me. We got to see many old friends and make some new ones. We feasted (in our own way!) And we ran through bubbles. Could the day get any better?

Oh, wait. Jesus lives. And if he lives, that changes everything for us.

 

Thanks for being part of Easter with all of us. Thank you for honoring the risen Lord. Thank you for declaring God’s work. Don’t give up.

Congregational Lunch

We’ll have a congregational lunch on May 21st at 11:00 am (after service). Bring a dish to pass and let’s give thanks for a great year.

 
 

Clean Out

We’ve started a process to clean out our facility. We want to have a simple, effective, clean space to fill people with the gospel so they can fill others! For more and updates, visit https://peaceotsego.org/peacenews/2023cleanout

Skate Night

Our middle school and high school students are welcome to skate night! May 6th 6:00 - 10:00 pm, starting at $10.

We’re praying for these future musicians. Keep praying with me for them.

Mother’s Day

We’d like to join you in thanking God for our mothers.

During the service on May 14th, we’ll recognize and pray for mothers and grandmothers. We’ll recognize them by putting a picture of your family on the screen, and then praying together for them.

Please send pastor a picture of your mother and family to pastor by May 12th. Email church@peaceotsego.org or text 269-694-6104.

Facility Use

Need space for your party this summer? Peace’s facility is available for graduations, baby showers, family reunions, and a host of other gatherings. Contact church@peaceotsego.org or 269-694-6104

Basic Faith for Middle School Students

How do learn faith? How do we gain hearts that believe what is a good and true, and lives that live what is good and true?

Our answer is catechism - a special class designed for middle school students.

After our children receive education from preschool to 5th grade, middle school students (grades 6-8) receive the next level of instruction in catechism class. Catechism class systematically instructs students in the basic teachings of the Christian faith. Catechism doesn’t teach Bible stories; it teaches doctrine so we can gain the mind of Christ. 

If you’re a 6-8th grade student now or in the fall of 2023, I hope you’ll join me for this class. I love spending time with you and helping you learn to follow Jesus. 

If you are a parent of a 5th grader, please contact me so that I can get your student registered for the class. Call or text 269-694-6104.

Our 2023 group will start June 4th at 10:45 am!

Work day is a great chance for us to keep our entire facility safe and functional.

May 6th 9:00 - 12:00

Plenty for everyone!

A big part of the day will be hauling items to the barn to give away.

Clean Out

Clean Out

Status: Beginning May 21st, most items are available to members. See below

Our work has changed a lot the last 5 plus years. We are a different congregation doing different work.

We want to be a congregation that equips people to fill the homes, workplaces, and lives of others with the gospel. By God’s grace, we can fill 15% of the homes in Otsego - Plainwell with the gospel.

We need a facility and equipment that supports our work:

  • space and equipment that equips children, high school students, and young adults

  • flexible space for training, classes, and workshops

  • quality equipment that is simple, easy to use - it works

  • equipment that looks good for our time and place

  • make good use of our financial resources

In order to accomplish this, we’re going to CLEAN OUT!

We want to clean out and give away items we no longer use or need for ministry.

Phase 1 - Remove - COMPLETE

  • Up to May 6th, pastor will work with team members to select items

  • May 6th (work day) team will work through the building

  • All items selected to give away will be put on the tractor side of the barn

Phase 2 - Appeal - UNDER REVIEW

  • May 7th to 14th APPEAL PROCESS

  • Any member go look through the items in the garage (let the office know you are going to come unless you have a key)

  • Let the office know that we should keep an item

  • Questions will be reviewed and decided by the office

Phase 3 - Selection - IN PROGRESS

  • May 21st to May 28 MEMBER SELECTION

  • Any member can look through the items and select what you’d like.

  • Put a name on the card for larger items. If multiple people want the same item, council will review.

  • You are welcome to make a donation if you’d like.

Phase 4 - Community Give Away

Phase 5 - Rummage Sale

  • June 16th 9:00 - 5:00

  • Phase 6 - Salvation Army Pick up

Phase 7 - Pitch

  • Pitch remaining items

I’m optimistic this process will set us up for our next phrase ministry. Let’s get this done and get to work!

Thanks

Pastor T

Hello friends of Peace,

Holy Week

Jesus took his last steps to a dining room, a hill, and a tomb.

What is that?

What is it that the greatest man the world has ever known would end his life, not on a stage, not on a throne, not in a quiet home ….

but first with friends at a table….

then alone on a hill….

until he reached a tomb?

Let us walk his final steps together:

  • Holy Thursday 6:30 pm

  • Good Friday 6:30 pm

  • Easter Sunday 8:00 and 9:30 am, brunch at 10:45

I’m ready to walk with you.

With love,

Pastor T

Hello friends of Peace,

Every hand, every home … a hymnal

Hymnals are here!

We've put them out in the pews. If you find your row needs another one, please graciously borrow one from another place.

If you bought a personal book and you have paid for it, they are on the counter in the entry area. Please pick up your book. If you haven’t paid, please put a marked check or cash in the plate or pay online.

This Sunday we’re going to walk through the book a little. Watch this little video to learn a little about it!

 

(PS for more about the hymnal, read https://peaceotsego.org/peacenews/hymnal2023

Lent 2023

Have you ever checked out the way of sorrows - the last steps of Jesus? The Via Dolorosa is the famous last steps of Jesus.

Check out this neat description and video of the steps. https://www.biblicalarchaeology.org/media/video/onsite-via-dolorosa/

We’re going to do the same this year. Be sure to join us for Lent this year https://peaceotsego.org/events/lent2023

  • February 22 John 11 “Final steps led to a tomb”

  • March 1 Matthew 21:12-17 “Final steps to his father’s house”

  • March 8 Luke 20:9-19 “Final steps led to his enemies”

  • March 15 John 12:1-11 “Final steps led to a dinner celebration”

  • March 22 John 12:20-33 “Final steps led to some Greeks”

  • March 29 Mark 11:12ff “Final steps led to a fig tree”

  • April 6 Mark 14:12-17 “Final steps led to the upper room”

  • April 7 Luke 23:26-33 “Final steps led to the place of the skull”

 

He lives! Easter 2023

Jesus asks for everything from us. He wants us to follow his steps each day. He wants us to sacrifice ourselves and all we have for him and his kingdom. He expects us to always forgive, always hope, and always give.

Those kinds of demands require remarkable proof.

As you make plans to celebrate Easter with us and invite others to be part of it, be sure to think about the evidence for Easter. Be ready to say, “he lives! And here is why….”

Good news for Peace February 9th

 

Hello friends of Peace,

Dear friends,

Tension. Balance. Harmony.  

Tension exists in life and that is good. Gravity pulls you down. Your muscles push you up. When gravity stops, you float. When your muscles stop, you are crushed to the ground.  

Balance is helpful. The water flows down the Kalamazoo River, but it never empties. Lake Michigan never overflows. The water completes its cycle and maintains a balance.  

Harmony enriches and deepens life. Musical notes combine to form more beautiful sounds – harmonizations. The new sound is more than both sounds individually played.  

Tension. Balance. Harmony. We experience them regularly. Each has its place.  

God points out many areas of tension, balance, and harmony in our lives. We reject them to our detriment; we embrace them to our benefit.  

For example, Paul writes, “creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay”. That must mean creation is decaying right now. We could even say the world is falling apart. At the same time, Isaiah says, “I am making all things new”. These points aren’t in conflict. They reveal tension to us.  

James tells us “confess our sins”. The Psalm writer says, “The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous.” We are filled with sin and yet we never overflow, because God the Holy Spirit also makes us righteous.  

And for harmony, God says we are saved by faith and we should not give up meeting together.

Can I offer you a little tip? Don’t run from tension, balance and harmony. There is something more to be found where ever there is a little tension, balance, or harmony.

(P.S. Missed our recent sermons? Check ‘em out!)

B.L.E.S.S

Who would you like God to B.L.E.S.S?

My neighbor lost his job lately. I took him out to coffee. I’ve texted with him a few times. I connected him to some job opportunities and helped him network.

I’ve done all this because I care for him and his family. I want God to bless him.

Who would you like God to bless in your life?

I want to invite you to join me in our BLESS initiative.

Join in

Either get paper materials on-site or grab your own copy of the electronic materials

Steps

  1. Grab a prayer bookmark and fill it out

  2. Get a neighborhood map and fill it out

  3. Start listening.

Let’s pray!

Dear Lord, you are the Lord of heaven and earth. You work in all things with justice and mercy. You lift up those who have been brought low and you tear down those who have lifted themselves up. We pray that you would work through our work and bless these people in our lives who need your help. In Jesus name, Amen.

Let’s BLESS the people around us https://peaceotsego.org/peacenews/bless

Every hand, every home … a hymnal

As you may be aware, the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (WELS) has come out with new hymnals that includes liturgy, psalms and hymns - all kinds of wonderful resources (see https://www.christianworship.com/).

Hymnals for worship

We are going to purchase these books for our seats in the near future. We intend to have them in our building by March 1.

Yes, this is a big change for us all, but we have been through this before with our previous hymnals. Remember how you felt about the red book? And now look how familiar it is!

Our musicians, including our cantors, will help you become familiar with the hymns/liturgy. We should all remember how well we did with the new liturgy for Lent that we've used the past 3 years. I (Cindy Commissaris) don't think it was too painful and I think a lot of us came to like it.

We will still use hymns/liturgy from the previous hymnals in our services, but we will concentrate more on the large blue hymnals.

Peace is covering the cost for hymn books in the building. These will belong to the congregation and will stay on site.

Hymnals for home

I (again, Cindy Commissaris), as well as pastor, encourage you to order your own hymnal. Add it to your home devotional life. Sing a hymn. Pray a prayer. Put it right under your Bible on your table and use it to help you grow each day. At the same time, it will help you become familiar with the music.

The cost for an at-home hymnal will be $25.00 each. Peace is helping out with shipping, etc. If you would like your own you can order these ways:

1. Sign up on the sheet in the entry area on the next steps table

2. Sign up on our website at https://peaceotsego.org/peacenews/hymnal2023

3. Notify Cindy Commissaris at 269-370-7313

Please get order requests in by February 19th. Thank you!

If you have any questions, Pastor or Cindy Commissaris would be glad to answer them.

Lent 2023

Our journey had advanced;
Our feet were almost come
To that odd fork in Being’s road,
Eternity by term …

(Emily Dickinson)

“It's not whether you win or lose, it's how you play the game.”

“It’s not the destination, it’s the journey.”

“To travel is to live.”

“Begin with the end in mind”.

Even Jesus walked the journey of life, and even Jesus’ journey drew to an end. The choices he made during his last days and the last steps he took speak volumes about the man he was.

This Lent, join him for his final steps and you might just find that he will change your steps.

We’ll gather for services weekly of prayer, meditation, and hearing God’s Word.

All services take place on Wednesday evenings at 6:30 pm, except for Maundy Thursday and Good Friday. Service start February 22nd.

  • February 22 John 11 “Final steps led to a tomb”

  • March 1 Matthew 21:12-17 “Final steps to his father’s house”

  • March 8 Luke 20:9-19 “Final steps led to his enemies”

  • March 15 John 12:1-11 “Final steps led to a dinner celebration”

  • March 22 John 12:20-33 “Final steps led to some Greeks”

  • March 29 Mark 11:12ff “Final steps led to a fig tree”

  • April 6 Mark 14:12-17 “Final steps led to the upper room”

  • April 7 Luke 23:26-33 “Final steps led to the place of the skull”

 

Sisters in Christ Retreat (Women’s Retreat)

God often uses the weak or small things of this world to show us his power and emphasize his grace: a thorn in Paul’s flesh, “so that the power of Christ” may rest on him; a baby in a manger, born to be the Savior of the world; the foolishness of the cross, used by God to redeem the world from sin.

Join us as we spend a weekend together, gathered around God’s Word. We will be diving into God’s word, refreshing our souls, and edifying each other. We will learn how God’s grace is sufficient, and how he uses weakness in our lives to show us his perfect love and power.

Every hand, every home ... a hymnal

Every hand, every home ... a hymnal

Hello friends of Peace!

As you may be aware the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (WELS) has come out with new hymnals that includes liturgy, psalms and hymns - all kinds of wonderful resources (see https://www.christianworship.com/).

Hymnals for worship

We are going to purchase these books for our seats in the near future. We intend to have them in our building by March 1.

Yes, this is a big change for us all, but we have been through this before with our previous hymnals. Remember how you felt about the red book? And now look how familiar it is!

Our musicians, including our cantors, will help you become familiar with the new hymns/liturgy. We should all remember how well we did with the new liturgy for Lent that we've used the past 3 years. I (Cindy Commissaris) don't think it was too painful and I think a lot of us came to like it.

We will still use hymns/liturgy from the previous hymnals in our services, but we will concentrate more on the new hymnals.

Peace is covering the cost for hymn books in the building. These will belong to the congregation and will stay on site.

 

Hymnals for home

I (again, Cindy Commissaris), as well as pastor, encourage you to order your own hymnal. Add it to your home devotional life. Sing a hymn. Pray a new prayer. Put it right under your Bible on your table and use it to help you grow each day. At the same time, it will help you become familiar with the music.

The cost for an at-home hymnal will be $25.00 each. Peace is helping out with shipping, etc. If you would like your own you can order these ways:

1. Sign up on the sheet in the entry area on the next steps table

2. Sign up on our website at https://peaceotsego.org/peacenews/hymnal2023

3. Notify Cindy Commissaris at 269-370-7313

Please get order requests in by February 19th. Thank you!

If you have any questions, Pastor or Cindy Commissaris would be glad to answer them.

Good news for Peace January 26

 

Hello friends of Peace,

2022 Year in Review

Dear friends, remember this? God built his church among us and we came together as the pieces - each represented by a lego. We are Bold Builders (if you want to check out those sermons again, https://peaceotsego.org/sermons?tag=Bold+Builders).

Here are a couple of ways God built us up in 2022:

  • we baptized 2 and witnessed 4 profess faith in Jesus

  • as part of our effort to raise up musicians, we added 2 new musicians to the team https://peaceotsego.org/peacenews/weworship

  • we added a 4th study and life group, bringing people into regular contact with God’s Word and each other

God is doing work among us. I see the fruits his Word and Sacrament make and for that I am eternally grateful.

I’d love to enjoy more of God’s good work on Sunday at our voters’ meeting. Please join me/us.

Evangelism Workshop

The gospel is the best news in the world, and it is the hardest to share. In a world filled with noise and chaos, the gospel struggles to stand out.

We’ve got an evangelism workshop scheduled for Saturday January 28th. It’s a chance to be filled with the gospel and share that gospel.

See you at 9:00 am! One hour. With donuts!

 
 

Calendar Fun Raiser

Ladies Guild is having a calendar fun(d) raiser. If you would like to participate, please do so. The calendar is on the next steps table in the entry area.

Thanks!

Sisters in Christ Retreat (Women’s Retreat)

God often uses the weak or small things of this world to show us his power and emphasize his grace: a thorn in Paul’s flesh, “so that the power of Christ” may rest on him; a baby in a manger, born to be the Savior of the world; the foolishness of the cross, used by God to redeem the world from sin.

Join us as we spend a weekend together, gathered around God’s Word. We will be diving into God’s word, refreshing our souls, and edifying each other. We will learn how God’s grace is sufficient, and how he uses weakness in our lives to show us his perfect love and power.

He Lives! Easter 2023

It seems like a long ways away, but we want to see you all there. Save the date for Easter 2023!

April 9th 8:00 and 9:30 am!

Easter Team - I know it’s early, but it’s time to get ready for sharing the good news that Jesus is alive. Pastor is putting together a team. Here are some things to help with: prayer team, invites, meal, decorating, service, egg hunt. We’d love to have your help with any and all of this. Get ahold of pastor and I can get you on the team!

 

BLESS

I’m excited to join with you in an effort to bless our friends, neighbors, coworkers, and acquaintances with the gospel of Jesus. This is an initiative we’ll be developing over the next few months.

For now, join me in asking this question:

Who do I know who I would like God to bless?

Come up with 5 names, including a few new names. Try to pick people other than your family.

Grab a bookmark at church to begin blessing them!

Let’s pray!

Dear Lord, you are the Lord of heaven and earth. You work in all things with justice and mercy. You lift up those who have been brought low and you tear down those who have lifted themselves up. We pray that you would work through our work and bless these people in our lives who need your help. In Jesus name, Amen.

Good news for Peace January 12

 

Hello friends of Peace,

Thank you so much for all your generous gifts to Peace in 2022. Two months before Christmas, the 131 Youth Crew had a lock at Holy Trinity in Wyoming. A young lady came. Not a part of our churches, a friend. She was concerned about her dating relationship. Was it good? We sat in the kitchen and talked for more than a hour, just her, another pastor, myself, and another guy. Mostly, we listened and tried to ask questions. We told her about the real love of God. We pointed her to the hope for unending love with Jesus.

The next day the other pastor got a message, hey, I enjoyed the Youth Crew. Can I come again? The next day, she signed up for the 131 Youth Crew news.

Friends, this is what we do - together. We bring people the good news of Jesus and watch the Spirit work.

Can you believe how much God did among us this year? Here are a couple of other highlights from our gospel work together last year.

We’ve reported those gifts to Peace in your 2022 giving statements. You can find these statements in your box. Please pick them up and as you have the time, reflect on them. Do they reflect the amazing love Jesus has shown you? Are they the first gifts you have to give to God?

Friends, I’m so thankful to work with you to bring people the wonderful, life-giving news of Jesus. Our generosity makes that happen.

In the coming weeks, we’ll look at all God has asked us to do in 2023. May God be with us for his work!

 

Christmas undecorating

Thank you to the many hands that made Christmas undecorating go quickly. We had a great time. If you miss our Team and Task Times, plan to be part of the next one on February 7th at 6:30 pm (dinner at 6:00 pm, bring some food to share).

Forward in Christ


Our next chance to explore Christianity and the gospel begins this week January 19th. Invite your friends and family today!

Please let Pastor T know if you’ll attend.

Christian Neighbors

A few weeks before Christmas, I received a call looking for housing assistance. The person thought they would get evicted. My first call when I got off was Christian Neighbors.

Christian Neighbors provides professional, thoughtful, appropriate assistance for people of Otsego - Plainwell. Unlike most assistance organizations, Christian Neighbors is supported through donations. When it comes to food, they primarily rely on local congregations.

Thank you for your donations. They make a huge difference.

Total donations for 2022 were 583 items.

Bathroom painting

The bathrooms are going to be repainted starting January 23rd. If you are in the building around that time, please be aware of the paint and consider trying to use other bathrooms.

Giving Statements

As said above, we have produced statements of offerings from 2022. Those statements are available in your box. Please pick them up and help us out.

Godpliments (131 Youth Crew January)

What God says, he means. Whenever he says a Godpliment, you can take them to heart.

Tree of Warmth

We got to distribute the hats, gloves, scarves, coats, socks, and all the other warm items you donated this week. We took items to Dix Street Elementary School, Washington Street Elementary School, the Kalamazoo Gospel Mission, and Sylvia’s Place. They all appreciated it. I showed up at the Gospel Mission at 6 pm. I stopped by the front desk and said, “hey, I’m sorry I’m so late. I’m on my way to an appointment and probably need to come back during business hours. I’ve just got some donations.” And they said, “Oh no, anytime, we’ll absolutely take them. Thank you!” It was good to help.

Thanks for your donations!

Thanks to the Powells and Joan Retberg for making it happen.

131 Youth Crew January

Dear 131 Youth Crew, 

We had a crazy good time at our lock in in November. Thanks Holy Trinity for hosting!

Our next gathering is January 21st at 5:00 pm at Peace in Otsego.

Our theme this year is “Hold on to Your Faith”. This time we’re listening to “Godpliments”. What’s a godpliment? Let me tell you this story. The other day my kid came into the kitchen and asked for a glass of milk. I was busy doing a couple of other things but stopped to get the glass of milk. As I handed my kid the milk, I said, “Thanks dad, you’re the best dad.” My kid said back to me, “Thanks dad, you’re the best dad.” I made my kid compliment me.

It wasn’t a real compliment. It didn’t even really make me feel good, because I know it wasn’t real. Sadly, I feel that way about most compliments. They just don’t feel real.

God doesn’t talk to you and I like that. What he says, he means. Whenever he says a Godpliment, you can take them to heart.

Nothing does better for your faith than those Godpliments.

Nerf Battle! Spaghetti Dinner!

We’ll have dinner, games, study, and prayer all together on Saturday January 21st! Look forward to seeing you!

For more information, please contact your local leaders.

Hello friends of Peace,

Come and help!

I’ve appreciated the chance to talk with you as I’ve considered where to serve the Lord’s kingdom. People are excited about the friends who have joined our congregation lately. We’re happy about the progress on the musician initiative - so happy to have Helga, glad for the partnership Ellise offers, and the 15 people we’re praying for. There seems to be a small core group or team reforming, which is encouraging.

At the same time, there are certain concerns and realities. Some people are unsettled about all the change we’ve experienced, especially because of COVID. We wonder what the congregation will be like in 5 years. We’re needing hope for the future of Peace.

I’m hopeful for Peace and for God’s work among us. I see our love for God, our love for people, and a commitment to bring people the only message that helps us love - the gospel of Jesus.

We're facing a significant challenge. We’re facing our own unique challenges and they’ll require your unique service.

I’m here with you. I’m returning the call to Reedsville, WI and staying at Peace. Thank you for your love and gospel partnership.

Friends, I'm sure that in five, ten, twenty years, there will be a vibrant and faithful group of people filled with the gospel and filling others with the same gospel.

Let’s be part of that.

We get to do that Sunday as we encourage the kids and let them share the Christmas message with us.

Children’s Christmas service

The Children’s Christmas service will be on December 18th at 9:30 am.

Special practice December 17th 10:00 am.

Kids, please arrive Sunday at 9 for a final practice.

Hello friends of Peace,

Come and help!

“I can’t wait for _______ (fill in the blank).”

How do you fill in the blank? What can’t you wait for?

There are many things I have spent time waiting for, and some things I should’ve waited for that I didn’t wait for at all. One thing I’m waiting for now is to talk to a few more people and then make a decision about the call to serve at St John St James in Reedsville, WI. I’ve had a good chance to consider our ministry at Peace and how you feel about it. I appreciate hearing about the hope you have for us right now (or the lack of it), what you see God doing among us, and where you think he is directing our ministry.

Are we waiting for things that really matter? I hope so.

Can’t wait to see you this Sunday so we can learn to wait well.

Otsego Hometown Christmas

Thanks for all the help at Otsego’s Hometown Christmas event. It was great to make new friends with you all day. I have to share a little story with you.

A couple of days after the event, church received a call from a local insurance agency. Every year this agency finds a few local singles or families that they can give gifts to. They called us because they know we are connected to people in the community.

I thought this was a special honor for us. We’re known in town such that people call us to find out about other people.

Praise God for his indescribable, unearned love for us that caused him to come down!

Christmas decorations

As you decorate for Christmas and clean up after, if you discover decent unused Christmas decorations, please consider donating them to church. We would be glad to try to use them some more.

Children’s Christmas service

The Children’s Christmas service will be on December 18th at 9:30 am.

The kids will practice together weekly on Sundays until the service! Special practice December 17th 10:00 am.

Can’t wait to hear them!

Officer elections and appointments

At the end of the year, we typically look for nominations for officers in the coming year.

By God’s grace, Peace has faithful men ready to serve in 2023. For 2023, the council will be….

  • President = Charles Kling

  • Vice - president = Roger Commissaris

  • Elder = Tom Wright

  • Recording Secretary = Micah Rimpel

  • Pastor = Nathaniel Timmermann

We thank these men for their service. During 2023, we’ll work with individuals in the congregation to develop future leaders as 2024 will bring a number of vacancies.

Thank you!
