Conference Office Takes Stewardship Step
The Conference office is continuing to expand its environmental stewardship!
In addition to recycling office paper, cans, and plastic, the office will
now be open Monday through Thursday 7-5. This will reduce commuting fuel,
emissions, and time, as well as energy usage in the building. All staff
continue to work full-time based on their responsibilities.
We're also making it easier to reach us if you dial one of the main numbers,
303-733-3736 or 800-536-3736. The phone system has been modified to make
it easier to locate quickly a staff member's extension if one of these
numbers is called. The easiest way to be in touch with any particular staff
member in this building is to dial their direct number. Those numbers are
listed on the back cover of the Rocky Mountain Conference Journal and on
the Conference web site, http://rmcumc.org/staff.
Give us a call! We're here to serve, connect, and resource your ministry.
Rocky Mountain Conference Challenged
“Church for the Rest of Us” was the theme of the Rocky Mountain
Conference session held in Denver, June 18-21. Preaching by Bishop John
R. Schol, Washington Area, Bishop Warner H. Brown, Jr., Rev. Dr. Melanie
Rosa, and presentations by Diana Butler Bass, author of “Christianity
for the Rest of Us” fleshed out the theme. “Dramatic and unprecedented” schedule
changes in the carefully-planned session had to be made because of flight
cancellations on the itinerary of guest speaker Bass. But the wait was
rewarded with presentations which, according to Director of Mission and
Ministry, Skip Strickland, “have created a great buzz” in the
Conference.
Dr. Bass said that these times are a "500-year flood," a metaphor
brought to mind by the recent floods in Iowa. Just as the residents of
many areas in Iowa had never seen flooding like this, we have never experienced
the kind of change that is now occurring in the world. The level of cultural
change we are now experiencing was last seen in the Reformation 500 years
ago. The “river has moved” but there are churches now which
are building new bridges where it is, not where it used to be.
Bishop Schol called for more courage as churches in decline “walk
the Pentecost path.” The trouble is, he said, that "we want
quick fixes without change … want solution without sacrifice, Pentecost
without the fire, Pentecost without trying to figure out all the languages,
and the Pentecost crowds without making us uncomfortable. We want the church
for the rest of us without taking the journey.”
Bishop Brown, preaching on Sarah’s laughter, reminded ordinands
that strangers can come to our churches, bringing a future with hope. God
calls us to live beyond our fears and those things that enslave us and
keep us from being truly free! And Dr. Rosa preached a memorial service
reminding us that we can be strong at the broken places as we “remember
hope."
Bishop Brown was given a gift of gratitude for his eight years of service
in the Rocky Mountain Conference with a $77,000 pledge to the Nothing But
Nets initiative. The winner of a NBA basketball signed by bishops was the
churches of Utah, who went together and pledged $15,000!
In other giving news, the Conference was thanked for giving over $50,000
to the Global AIDS Fund in the last quadrennium, and challenged to give
that much more in the coming one. Offerings taken at the Conference totaled
over $22,400, with over $9,000 going to our sister conferences in Angola.
Decisions made included a painful one following an 8-year study to enable
the Trustees to sell one of the camps in the Conference. Janet Forbes,
senior pastor at St. Luke’s Highlands Ranch, was nominated as an
episcopal candidate. The “Majority Report” of Church and Society
Subcommittee II at General Conference was affirmed as a way for this Conference
to move forward on issues of human sexuality. Adjustments were made to
the “Church Tithe” way of funding Conference ministries. A
budget of $6,045,244 was approved. Six elders and three deacons were ordained;
five probationary members were commissioned. Five outstanding lay people
were honored with the Bishop’s Award, given for outstanding service
in their local church and local community or in the United Methodist Connection:
Betsy Keyack of St. Luke’s UMC of Highlands Ranch, James Sauls of
Peoples UMC of Colorado Springs, and Hope and Les Law of Evanston UMC of
Denver. A special Episcopal Leadership Award was given to the Rev. Dr.
Harvey Martz for his outstanding and lasting contributions to the Rocky
Mountain Annual Conference. Total membership at the end of 2007 was 68,481,
up 574 members, 0.85%. (corrected from earlier report)

Missions News
Windsor, CO, Hit By Tornado
May 30, 2008 Letter from Linda Pelletier, Pastor, First UMC, Windsor,
CO. See additional information below about how you might help. Donations
are accepted to the "Conference Disaster Fund" any time. These
funds will be used to meet needs caused by these kinds of events. – Skip
Strickland
The Windsor Community is approaching one week since the tornado hit our
community. Last Thursday, with no warning system in place, the town experienced
a powerful blow. The words that seemed to be on most of the community's
lips were, "we have witnessed a miracle with no loss of life in this
terrible time." We went from an eerie stillness after the tornado,
to helicopters flying over head, sirens blaring, and word on the street
that, "another one was coming". People were pulled off the streets
and told to enter the nearest building with a basement. My husband and
I walked one block east to the police station from the church to let them
know that the church would be open for anyone who was in need, only to
see trees, roofs, power lines and stuff everywhere. Our area was without
power for 4 days and 3 nights.
After the twister passed, people who are part of our church family started
showing up at the church. Stories flowed from the heart, stories of fear,
awe and gratefulness. One family came by the church on the way to stay
with family in Fort Collins, but had to get the tires on the car repaired
because they had three flats after driving over all kinds of debris as
they evacuated their severely damaged home in the subdivision called Corner
Stone, where most of the damage was.
The State, County, and town emergency plans quickly went into action.
Police were on every corner, civil servants and others quickly moved to
bring assistance. They worked with great calmness and with compassion.
All day long for the next two days the sound of chain saws cutting up fallen
trees met with the strange stillness that was everywhere. People were just
helping people, and strangers were helping out each other, a true sense
of community was everywhere, while the next two days brought more weather
concerns.
Within a few hours, emergency relief workers were everywhere. They were
the only ones allowed into the main disaster center evacuating the residents
giving them only a few minutes to get out of their homes because of possible
gas leaks and unsafe structures. Later people were able to enter into the
disaster area and begin the grueling task of cleaning up. Members of our
congregation connected with others quickly forming crews to help. Other
crews that were predisposed to this kind of disaster response arrived hourly
from so many places. It became pretty crowded at one point.
Two shelters were set up and for the first several nights for those who
did not have family and friends to stay with. ... I was able to take part
in a daily conference call that included county, state and local emergency
aid agencies. They, for the most part, have completely managed the entire
process of the initial recovery and aid. But, with the initial response
almost over, the next steps will see the need for ongoing support and aid.
I think what we are seeing is that after some poorly responded to disasters,
the responses have become more and more efficient, (at least getting there).
This next phase will need volunteers who want to help in the centers that
will be set up probably all summer long....
This community will need emotional, spiritual support as well as financial
and material support in the future. Fortunately, most of the victims have
insurance; some did not and they will have the greatest needs. As we know,
insurance will not cover everything, so donations will be an ongoing need.
I think many are thinking of the ongoing Hurricane Katrina volunteer efforts
where teams are literally rebuilding homes and there are ongoing teams
sent out regularly. That will not be the case here in Windsor.
The next phase of recovery will be the coordination and the distribution
of donations, and financial support. Volunteers probably will not be rebuilding
at all. Professional contractors are being sent by insurance companies
to do the repairs and rebuilding. Now that FEMA is here, new regulations
supersede the old ones, and the uninsured are being helped greatly by FEMA.
I have been in several discussions with UMCOR and Dave Lillie....
It was a tremendous blessing to have Bishop Brown, Eric Smith and Leighton
Mekeal attend our Sunday worship services. Our congregation and community
truly felt cared for. Sunday afternoon I joined with 7 other clergy in
Windsor at the Windsor High School for a Community Worship Service. It
was moving and met a real need here. ... Our Ministerial Alliance will
be meeting next Wednesday to discuss our common mission in Windsor and
supporting each other. I have been blessed with a wonderful group to work
with.
Thanks for the prayers, e-mails, and support. I know that we will be able
to use the prayer shawls. We will be letting the Conference know of the
needs that will surely come in the future. – Linda Pelletier
Update on helping with the Recovery Process in Windsor, May 30, 2008
Information provided by Linda Pelletier, Pastor First United Methodist
Church, Windsor, CO.
If you are looking for an opportunity to help immediately in the recovery
process caused by the tornado that struck Windsor, CO and the surrounding
area, see below.
The Reception Center which is in the old Steele Market behind McDonalds
on Main Street, Windsor, is needing volunteers to sort and receive donations.
The Distribution Center located at 810 3rd. Street Windsor, (Mountain View
Elementary) is also in need of volunteer support and help. Hours for both
places is 10 a.m. to 7 p.m."
The Rocky Mountain Conference Disaster Response Team and Betsy Keyack,
one of the Conference United Methodist Volunteer in Mission Coordinators,
will continue to be in dialog with Linda Pelletier and the members of the
Windsor Church working to identify additional ways to help in the future.
Tornado Update June 10: Windsor Moves to Recovery
The Windsor area (and northern Colorado) is now transitioning from "response" to "recovery".
The outpouring of support and volunteers has been remarkable. There is
much work yet to be done, however. Best estimates for getting the majority
of recovery work done will be at least a year to eighteen months. Volunteers
in Mission (VIM) is being handled by Betsy Keyack and it will be a major
player in deploying the volunteer workers that will be needed. UMCOR is
now in the process of becoming a part of the long term recovery process
for our community through the ministry of Rev. Gordon Knuckey.
I want to share with you what I was told in a recent Recovery meeting
by our FEMA representative for this disaster, Kathy King: her words were
a real source of grace. She said that UMCOR has been a major player in
national disasters and is highly respected as a response and recovery agency.
There were many other agencies around the table, and they all were acknowledging
the role our Church takes in times when human souls are in great need.
The United Methodist Church is a major responder and recovery agent in
not only our crisis with the tornado, but we are involved all over our
nation as well as the world. The giving that happens when we give to ONE
GREAT HOUR OF SHARING, is the gift that touches countless lives.
July 11:
The work in Windsor is being coordinated now by the "Long Term Recovery
Committee for the May 22 Storms in Northern Colorado." This committee
is a team helping to coordinate all of the Recovery work basically for
the next two years. Linda Pelletier, pastor of Windsor UMC is an At Large
member of that committee, representing both the United Methodist Church
and the Windsor Ministerial Alliance. This committee ensures a coordinated
effort to meet the needs of those who do not have adequate insurance or
the ability to move into a stage of new normal. The Committee is also the
place where UMCOR and VIM will be connected and work through. A Case Management
committee is expecting about 175 or so cases where people will need that
extra help to get to a "new normal." ("New Normal" is
a term used by the various agencies working in the Windsor area to get
people back on their feet again and as close to "normal" as they
were before the tornado.) – Linda Pelletier, pastor

Eagle Church Wins Food "Race"
Congratulations to the UMC of Eagle Valley! This 81-member congregation
brought 2,000 pounds of food to Denver Urban Ministry (DenUM), making them
the winner of the first annual Community Food Race. They will receive a
free Urban Education day and an Ice Cream Social put on by the DenUM staff.
Food Race results were based on the number of complete food bags collected
by each participating church, adjusted for congregation size. Eagle Valley's
contribution represents a donation of 24.5 pounds from each member of their
congregation! Eagle Valley folks made two trips from west of Vail. Young
people participated brought in food during a service week, and while participating
in the food race, the church continued to serve local families from their
own food bank. Cynthia Sibley, co-lay leader of the congregation, says
that all members, young, old, and in-between were participating. "It
was a great way for us to bond together and to help others," she says.
Overall, the 8 churches participating in the Community Food Race brought
more than 11,000 pounds of food to DenUM over the last two months. Participants
were: Arvada UMC, First Mennonite Church, Good Shepherd UMC, Grace UMC
Denver, Hope UMC, Trinity UMC Denver, UMC of Eagle Valley, University Park
UMC. These and many other donations came to DenUM at a time when requests
for assistance are at an all-time high. In April, DenUM provided emergency
food assistance to 1,056 families - nearly twice as many families as the
same time last year! If you would like to organize a food drive to help
meet this growing community need, please contact Katie Kinne, Community
Relations Coordinator, at 303.350.5064 or katie@denum.org.
