The following is a portion of a story on AZ Central news contributed by Joan Lewis, a member of the Victory Lutheran Church women’s group
When the women of Victory Lutheran Church gathered for their recent Christmas brunch, they were treated to an unusual collection of centerpieces … During the brunch, which featured music director Melanie DeYoung as the speaker, the group outlined their accomplishments during the year, which included making quilts and rolling bandages.
During their monthly meetings, they 79 quilts that were taken to South Minnesota to be used by Lutheran World Relief. Several other smaller quilts will be delivered to the nursing homes around Mesa or donated to the Lutheran Social Services of the Southwest.
In addition, Global Health Ministries in Minneapolis received five boxes of rolled bandages.
Other projects that received monetary offerings were Project Comfort, the Navajo Lutheran Mission in Rock Point, Arizona State University Lutheran Student Ministry, and the Heifer Project.

Sunne Lutheran Youth aka SLY “announces the 2010 Faith Adventure to the Navajo Evangelical Lutheran Mission in Rock Point, Arizona (with a side trip to the Grand Canyon) June 18-26, 2010.
The plans are to leave on June 18. We will be traveling by charter bus with overnight stops in Denver, Durango, and the Grand Canyon.
While at Rock Point, we will be staying at the Navajo Evangelical Lutheran Mission (www.nelm.org), a ministry of the Lutheran Church.
While at the Mission, we may be doing VBS, construction, cleaning, painting, landscaping, etc.
We will also be checking out the Grand Canyon, Canyon de Chelly, the Colorado Rockies (the mountains, not the baseball team), and various other sites.
We will leave Arizona on Friday, June 25, and return to Wilton on June 26.
This Faith Adventure is open to anyone in grades 8-12 regardless of their church affiliation or even if they don’t have an affiliation.
Since we are limited to 30 people, priority will be given to those in grades 9-12.
Those in grades 9-12 can register at any time until October 25.
Registration for eighth graders begins on October 11, if space is available.
Registration closes on October 25.
Please feel free to invite friends to join in.
The cost of this Faith Adventure is $750/person BUT you only have to pay $350, the remainder we will raise.
Your $350 non-refundable down payment (or portion thereof if you are making installments) and the registration forms (medical release and parental authorization) are what needs to be turned in to Pastor Paul to have yourself registered.
If you cannot provide $350 at the time of registration, an installment plan can be arranged. A limited number of partial scholarships are also available, but there are no full scholarships.
If finances are an issue, please speak to Pastor Paul.
There are several expectations if you choose to participate.
First of all, you must be in worship at least 18 times between now and June 13. If you are not a member of Sunne, then worship in your home church.
The second major expectation is that participants will take part in all fundraising activities.
If participant chooses not to participate in an activity, that person will need to pay an additional amount based on the funds raised in that activity.
Money does not magically appear.
Fundraising is a team effort.
The third major expectation is that participants will take part in a community service project on Join Hands Day (May 1, 2010) or an equivalent project.
This is our way of serving our home community and saying thanks to our home community.
There are number of people interested in being a chaperone.
If you know of an adult that is interested, please have them contact Pastor Paul.
We are asking all chaperones to pay $350 toward the cost.
Chaperones are expected to be team leaders and fulfill the expectations mentioned above.
We will be having an information meeting on October 11 at 11:30 a.m. (following the 10:30 worship service).
This meeting is for all parents, youth, and potential chaperones who are interested in this Faith Adventure.
If you have any questions or concerns, please give Pastor Paul a call or send him an email .”

Installation of Rev. Dr. Rev. Dr. Lynn Hubbard and Rev. Deborah Haffner Hubbard at Navajo Lutheran Mission
ELCA Grand Canyon Bishop Steve Talmage calls for humble approach in working with tribe
Bishop Talmage acknowledges God was at work with Navajo long before missionaries arrived
(Rock Point, Arizona) – The fourth video on the Installation of Rev. Dr. Lynn Hubbard and Rev. Deborah Haffner Hubbard at the Navajo Evangelical Lutheran Mission (NELM) in Rock Point, Arizona by Bishop Steve Talmage of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) Grand Canyon Synod.
Bishop Talmage installed the Hubbards on Sun., June 7, 2009.
In this video, Bishop Steve Talmage talks Navajo medical milestones like Dr. Lori Arviso Alvord, who in 1994 was the first Navajo woman to be board certified in surgery. (See photo collage below)
I believe there is a need to maintain Jesus’s spirit of humility in seeking to discover the bridges that can be made and even crossed between the cultures and histories that exist in this place, Bishop Talmage told those gathered for the Installation Service.
In our less than perfect history of over 50 years of ministry at Rock Point, those who have come from the outside have struggled to be humble, patient and willing to recognize the need to discover how God has already been at work among the people here, Bishop Talmage said.
Love the stranger, love the neighbor and a friend with an open heart – with the open heart that Jesus has for all of God’s children,” said Bishop Talmage of the effect of the mission and school on those who do not know Jesus.
Bishop Talmage’s message of humility and realization that God has long been a part of the Navajo culture even before missionaries resonates with Rev. Dr. Lynn Hubbard, who became executive director of the Navajo Lutheran Mission in the spring of 2009 and has a been an outspoken advocate for Christian respect for the American Indian culture and traditions.
While still following the original goals of the mission, Rev. Hubbard is taking a respectful and humble approach to the mission’s work in the Navajo community.
He believes the purpose of the mission is to minister with the Navajo not for the Navajo.
With the century-long horrors of the Christian boarding lasting to mid 1900s still fresh in elders’ minds, Hubbard believes we need to practice healing and reconciliation, not judge people whose path to the divine life might be different than ours.
Rev. Dr. Lynn Hubbard, who sings and plays guitar, is planning a series of concerts starting in the fall of 2009 at churches and other venues in Arizona, New Mexico, Nevada, Colorado, California.
The free fundraising concerts are to raise awareness about mission projects and the new Mission in Reverse model that the mission is operating under since he arrived in the Spring of 2009.

Flute Blessing by Carol Buckley, June 2000:
I hold this ancient instrument to my heart
And bless it with love.
I ask that my breath flow with ease
As my fingers dance to the rhythm
Of the ancient spirits joy.
May the music coming from this ancient instrument
Flow from my heart to heal wounded spirits,
Comfort and sooth troubled souls
And bring joy to the lives it touches.
Allow me to play in the peacefulness of the moment,
In the joy of celebration, and in the sacredness of living.

Flute Blessing by Carol Buckley, June 2000:
I hold this ancient instrument to my heart
And bless it with love.
I ask that my breath flow with ease
As my fingers dance to the rhythm
Of the ancient spirits joy.
May the music coming from this ancient instrument
Flow from my heart to heal wounded spirits,
Comfort and sooth troubled souls
And bring joy to the lives it touches.
Allow me to play in the peacefulness of the moment,
In the joy of celebration, and in the sacredness of living.

Travis Terry is a native Flutist of the Pima Nation who is born of the indigenous Gila River Pima Nation in Sacaton, Arizona.
On his myspace page, Native flutist Travis Terry says:
“I grew up surrounded by ethnic music and instruments of long ago, including the Native flute,” Terry said. “As a child I had natural appreciation for music, which contributed to me becoming a self-taught flutist in my adult years. My military service has sent me around the world exposing me to the musical traditions of various cultures.”
“Ethnic music was a continual interest and drew me closer to this dream of creating music. I have always been grateful to my parents (Irving and Caroline) for supporting my dreams and at the same time continually teaching me and my sisters (Denise and Dawn) the indigenous Pima culture, traditions and language. These values have aided me in blending contemporary culture with this heritage of the ‘Desert People.’ This conscious blending of cultures is very much reflected in my musical compositions and playing style.”
“After my military service, I visited Canyon De Chelly where my good fortune led me to meet my lovely wife Cara and settle in Chinle, AZ. Cara and her family taught me the ways and language of the Dine (Navajo) people.”

Travis Terry is a native Flutist of the Pima Nation who is born of the indigenous Gila River Pima Nation in Sacaton, Arizona.
On his myspace page, Native flutist Travis Terry says:
“I grew up surrounded by ethnic music and instruments of long ago, including the Native flute,” Terry said. “As a child I had natural appreciation for music, which contributed to me becoming a self-taught flutist in my adult years. My military service has sent me around the world exposing me to the musical traditions of various cultures.”
“Ethnic music was a continual interest and drew me closer to this dream of creating music. I have always been grateful to my parents (Irving and Caroline) for supporting my dreams and at the same time continually teaching me and my sisters (Denise and Dawn) the indigenous Pima culture, traditions and language. These values have aided me in blending contemporary culture with this heritage of the ‘Desert People.’ This conscious blending of cultures is very much reflected in my musical compositions and playing style.”
“After my military service, I visited Canyon De Chelly where my good fortune led me to meet my lovely wife Cara and settle in Chinle, AZ. Cara and her family taught me the ways and language of the Dine (Navajo) people.”
Preview story on April 9, 2009 in Pittsburgh Tribune-Review and Pittsburgh Live about area church group heading to NEML to paint. Pastor Susan C. Schwartz heads Hope Lutheran Church of Forest Hills and St. John Lutheran Church in Swissvale and Kathy Gaberson, a Hope Lutheran member.
