HeartBeat—March 2018

From Pastor Jeff

The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God has come near; repent, and believe in the good news. Mark 1:15

Repent is one of those out-of-vogue words that conjures images of greasy corner preachers shouting and shaking floppy bibles at passers-by. Repent reeks of limits, confessions, uptight morality, and conjured admissions of petty guilt. But maybe repentance is what we need in these dark days where yet another 17 people have been gunned down, this time in a high school in Florida. Maybe repentance—that old-fashioned word—might be helpful as we ponder a way forward as people of faith and as citizens of the world.

lenten cross graphicRepent means “to turn around and go the other way,” or “to change one’s mind.” Maybe we could use a little repentance. Immediately following the shootings at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, political pundits and gun-rights activists quickly asserted (again) “this is not the time to talk about gun control.” Upon hearing this, one of the students from the high school where the shooting occurred replied with an expletive, “Bulls***!” Together with other students, he reminded all of us that children are dying and the adults seem unable or unwilling to do anything about it. Another student said, “If you won’t lead, we will.” Sounds like a call to repentance to me.

Unwillingness to change has been demonstrated again and again in the days following the shootings. In fending off the call for stricter gun control, following the shootings in Parkland, Florida, one senator explained on national media that the weapon “could have been a brick or a rope.” The interviewer seemed stunned by the comment and reminded him about the shootings in Las Vegas: “Senator, you can’t kill dozens of people a minute with a brick.”

Throughout the Gospels, Jesus challenges the powers that bring death and hurt to those who are the least powerful. He breaks from long-standing tradition and eats with outcasts, heals lepers, gathers ruffians and saints alike around him as disciples. In his sermons and actions, he exposes our selfish actions and calls us to live for our neighbor, to set aside our petty desires for a greater good, and to love those who seem the least loveable. In the genuine encounter with God in Jesus, we find ourselves transformed, even freed, to serve our neighbor. Now that is repentance!

The problem, of course, is that repentance involves self-sacrifice. Laws, similar to those of other developed nations that restrict the number or type of weapons private citizens can own, will require individuals to give up a personal right in order to preserve the rights of others. That is hard, and it strikes fear in the hearts of those who equate the right to own any firearm with all rights and freedoms. It is also certainly true that gun control by itself will not eliminate the carnage plaguing our nation. But perhaps it might be a first sensible step toward developing national culture that puts the safety of children (and adults) above the absolute right to own and bear arms.

While the legal issues continue to be argued in the media and the courts, the fact is that we live in a culture where our children remain imperiled by the next person with a grudge to bear or an illness that plagues them. How can we not do everything we can to keep lethal, high-powered weapons out of their hands for the safety of all concerned?

Jesus’ call for repentance is meant to draw us away from that which brings death (hatred, selfish ambition, slavish devotion to tradition), and steer us toward that which brings life (love, giving of self for the sake of others, and empathy). For the sake of that self-giving love, help us, great God, to see a new way for the sake of our children.

Blessings,
Pastor Jeff

The Chairs Are Coming! Here’s How You Can Help

chair graphicThe current plan is for the new pew chairs to ship in March. We all know what shipping to Hawai‘i means, but the new look LCH is coming. That means we are kicking our fundraising into high gear. Here are a few ways you can help:

Silent Auction and Potluck—April 28

We are soliciting the amazing talent at LCH to make donations to the silent auction. We will set up a signup sheet in the Courtyard to allow you to make your donation. Just think of the amazing items we saw in Faith and Arts Sunday. We encourage you to be creative in your gifts. Here are a few early donations:

  • A dinner for four at Chez Stark prepared by Sophia Stark, who was recently named one of the 40 top contestants on MasterChef Junior Season 6. (Yes, you can also tune in on Fox starting at 6:00 pm on March 2 and watch Sophia.)
  • A half pew beautifully crafted by Pastor Jeff.
  • Amazing framed photographs by Aaron Gould.
  • Your item here.

Make a Donation

The chairs are coming in at $300 per seat. Our goal is to raise $60,000 to cover this wonderful new addition to our worship life. Please pick up a brochure at church to see how you can make your donation or pledge. If you want to make a donation by mail, just make out your check to Lutheran Church of Honolulu and add Pew Chairs in the subject line. You can also donate online at www.lchwelcome.org/site/donate.

Cash for Coffee

We also encourage you to drop a few pennies or dollars in the calabash when you are getting your coffee and refreshments on Sunday morning.

Thank you for your support for this ongoing effort.

Orion PittsRemembrance of Orion Pitts

Long-time LCH friend, Orion Pitts—whom some may remember as Sidney, from his two years in the Navy here during the 1970s—has passed away. Orion was a consummate church musician, the very soul of First United Lutheran Church in San Francisco, where he served as the director of music as well as office administrator. We mourn the unexpected loss of a very fine friend.

2017 AIDS Walk

Sunday April 22, 8:00 am • Kapi‘olani Park Bandstand

Life Foundation logoJoin the LCH AIDS Walk team as we support Life Foundation, the largest provider of services to persons living with HIV/AIDS in Hawai‘i! Each year, our congregation gathers a team to raise funds and fun for the AIDS walk. The 5k-walk around Kapi‘olani Park is an easy stroll with water and rest stations along the way. There will be music, dancing, vendors, prizes, costumes, and craziness to support this very serious need in our community. Life Foundation helps where others will not. In addition to working with local clients, they are a source of information and training for AIDS organizations throughout the Pacific.

How can you help? Join our team online at www.honoluluaidswalk.com and click on “Register to Walk.” Choose Lutheran Church of Honolulu as your team. You may also sign up in the Courtyard between Sunday services. Then, ask your friends to sponsor you for the walk. Our team goal this year is to raise $2,500 for the Life Foundation!
