“Envision 2020”
In last month’s Anchor,
I mentioned changing our worship to one service as a topic of
discussion I was having with the
leadership of our church. We
have continued the discussions,
but since summer is upon us, and
we could not find a satisfactory
solution to the various problems
and potentials of a combined
service, we are continuing with
two services as before. However,
an idea occurred to me in my
heart as the discussions continued: What if what we need is to
take a step back before we initiate a change?
ated something, place it (or a link
to it) near the art wall. Lisa Hite
will help “curate” the art wall,
placing things as they arrive. Over
the summer, check the wall and
talk to people about what you see.
Our fifth Sunday in August, August
30, will focus on talking about and
learning from all the art over the
summer.
I have three goals for this
“Imagine 2020.” The first goal is to
have conversations about our future, conversations that can lead
to action and ministry. The second
goal is to discover some of the
dreams God has placed on our
hearts, particularly the dreams of

Welcome Gligor Tasev!
We look forward to having
another Macedonian this
summer – Gligor Tasev, from
the same church in Strumica
as Pavlina came from two
years ago. Gligor is 19, just
finished with high school,
very involved in church life,
and also quite talented musically. He should be arriving
late June, staying with us
through July, and leaving
about August 5 so he can be
back in time to start college
in the fall. We look forward
to his arrival for several reasons – first, because we are
continuing and strengthening
our ministry connection with
Macedonia, second, because
we have a lot to learn from
Gligor, and he has some to
learn from us as well, and
third, but not last, Gligor is a

God in our midst, that in
Christ, there is no east or
west, north or south, European or American – all are one
in Christ Jesus (Galatians 3:28
– very paraphrased!).

Worship Notes:
Summer brings new
opportunities and old for us in
worship. Here are some things
to keep in mind:
The unofficial “dress down
summer” for Pastor Brian and
Tommy begins on June 14.
You are welcome to dress as
the Holy Spirit and your conscience directs you, but if you
want to dress more relaxed,
and cooler you are free to do
so.
June 21 is Annual Conference
weekend. 8:30 service will be
as usual, led by Pastor Tommy
(Brian will be in Roanoke for
Annual Conference), followed
by the livestream of Annual
Conference worship at 11:15.
The youth band will show up
in worship over the summer
at least once, on June 28.
Look for Gligor Tasev to be
involved in worship a few
times over the summer in
whatever capacity he is comfortable, from being present,
to playing guitar, to leading
prayers, to possibly preaching.
(For that matter, if you want
to learn guitar, he may be able
to help you!)
Another 5th Sunday is around
the corner, on August 30. We
will have Sunday school at
9:15, followed by worship at
10:30, and hopefully a fellowship meal (volunteers to help
make it happen are appreciated – see Pastor Brian)
As we move from late spring
into summer and fall, be on
the lookout for more ways we
can involve more people in
worship – from communion to
children’s time, to music, to
liturgists and lay speakers, one
measure of a church’s health is
healthy participation and leadership. Perhaps you have it on
your heart to be involved somewhere? Please speak with Pastor Brian at any point.
Pew Pads (In parenthesis)
As you may have heard, we
have been using our “pew
pads” more and more.
Starting last summer, we
had a group of people taking
turns entering in the attendance data on our computer
system so we could begin
tracking attendance.
Starting early in the fall,
Shelby Sours and Nancy
Spain began calling people
who had missed three or
more Sundays in a row. We
don’t call everyone who
misses three or more because sometimes I (Pastor
Brian) know what is happening, or you have mentioned
to me or someone else that
you were out. I want to
thank all those who got the
ministry started and helped
carry it forward, including
Bill Bryan, Marilyn Eubanks,
Wanda Kissinger, Joyce Winston, Amy Johnson, Al and
Joann Markel. Delia has now
taken over the job of inputting names, but Shelby
and Nancy are still making
calls after I go through the
data. This has been a wonderful ministry, and we have
been able to help several
families who had problems
or crises we wouldn’t have
known about otherwise.
with the person so that:
Now – we are adding a
new emphasis. Last
month, in my list of “Four
Things,” I mentioned
meeting new people.
Starting now, I am inviting
you, after you sign your
name on the pew pad, to
put in parenthesis () anyone you have met and
prayed for this week.
These don’t have to be
people “new” to you, but
perhaps people you know,
but didn’t know the
names of, or people you
see all the time, but didn’t
get a chance to talk with
before. We will keep doing this experiment for a
while until we begin to get
comfortable with connecting with more people.
And then, we may continue as a way to encourage
each other to keep being
“salt and light” for the
world.
When you get to your
notepad, you can write
the name(s) down and
send a brief prayer to God
for their needs.
Here’s my suggestion for
a way that works for me:
Keep a note pad in your
car (or purse, etc.) that
you can write names in.
If someone is familiar to
you, but you don’t know,
or have forgotten their
name, you can always say,
“Please help me with you
name.” Most people are
familiar with forgetting
names and they will help
you with no problems.
Simply pay attention to
the conversation you have
The final step is to check
the notepad every few
weeks and see if God is
leading you to do or say
more to reach or connect
with the people you meet.
Volunteer Opportunities!
Just because
summer is coming around,
along with vacations, family outings, and time outside, doesn’t mean the
church closes its doors.
Our youth, children, and
adults are still around, and
worship continues! However, summer often
means there are extra
gaps in our ministries.
If you don’t usually volunteer for something because your plate is
full, please consider a
short-term opportunity to
help in a fairly straightforward ministry? Here are
some places you can “plug
in” right away!
Ushers – help in all kinds
of ways, especially with
welcoming, handing out
bulletins, passing the
plates, sometimes acolyting, and in other ways
too. Just ask one of the
ushers or Dave Sharp
about needs, and they will
be happy to get you connected!

Sound and Lights – if you like buttons
and have some technical skill (or want
some), talk with Jim Branstetter or any
of the folks who hang around the back
of the sanctuary during worship. We
have an excellent team, but they can
always use more hands.
Children and youth – you will have to
get some training and pass through our
procedures to work directly with children, but Children’s Church has become
an essential ministry every Sunday
morning for both worship services. Talk
with Robin Carroll or one of the other
volunteers for opportunities to help. Of
course, VBS and Sunday School can
always use help too.
Music – music doesn’t stop when the
choir takes a break. We are trying to
build up our praise bands and hopefully
add some more talent in the fall as well.
Speak with Mark Biondolillo if you’d like
to play an instrument (kazoo’s are ok
too!) or participate in some way. Hey, if
a pastor can be a drummer, you can
bring your instruments to play for God’s
glory too! Don’t forget to sign up for
choir in the fall.
FIFTY PLUS
Don’t miss our last outing of the 201415 season. For our Sunday afternoon,
June 14 outing we are planning to
attend Dirty Rotten Scoundrels performed by The Little Theatre of Norfolk. Based on the popular 1988
film, two men living on the French Riviera, skilled in duping rich women out of
their money, attempt to work with one
another only to find out the town isn’t
big enough for the two of them. They
decide to settle the matter once and
for all. The first one to swindle $50,000
from the heiress Christine Colgate wins
and the other must leave town. A
hilarious battle of cons ensues that
will keep you laughing, humming, and
guessing to the end. If you haven’t
already reserved your spot, do so
immediately. Price is just $16 plus
your meal afterwards.
Remember, we will continue to put
pictures from our previous outings on
the table in front of the Fifty Plus bulletin board. Help yourself to any old
pictures you would like. We will replace the pictures every couple weeks
or so.
For reservations and/or questions for
any Fifty Plus outing, contact Anne or
Bill Bryan at 851-0748 or by e-mail to
[email protected].

our graduates
Ryan and Carrie today informed us
Isabella is doing well. They still want
her to be isolated. She would be
right back in the hospital if she
comes down with a cold. Ryan asked me if we were
up-to-date with our Tetanus shots. We are up-todate on everything. Between being a health care
professional and taking care of an elderly parent,
we are both covered. Thanks to all of the prayer
warriors out there. We Grandparents and the parents are very thankful.

We now have an Endowment Giving Program at First United Methodist Church Fox
Hill. It is a special program of giving above and beyond your regular contributions to the
church. Endowment gifts can be any amount of money (small or large) or other assets such
as personal property, life insurance, bequest in a will, real estate, etc. Endowment giving is
designed to create a legacy or endow our church’s ministry. Endowment giving is not intended to pay our normal operating expenses so all such legacy gifts should be in addition
to your giving to our routine expenses.
If you have any questions or are interested in making an endowment gift, any
member of our Endowment Committee would be happy to answer them or the committee
will meet with you. Our committee members include Hunter Francis, Bill Bryan, Lloyd Cato,
Woody Wilson, Tommy Thompson, Pastor Brian and Pastor Tommy. There are two pamphlets called “The Ways of Giving” and “Frequently asked Questions about Endowment
Giving” available for your review in the bin across from the pastor’s office. If you would like
to contact the Virginia United Methodist Foundation, you can receive a free confidential
consultation. Their phone number is 800-768-6040, ext. 120 or visit their website at
www.VAUMFgifts.org.

Financial Fundamentals This periodic report briefly addresses finances at FUMC Fox
Hill. The latest weekly and year-to-date information is printed weekly in The Sail
available at every service or in the church office.
Finances improved again in April, but we still have a ways to go. We are now current
on our District Apportionments, mission plans, and have paid all our operational bills
and the mortgage. We are still $5,820 behind on our Conference obligations and have
not been setting aside our planned savings for future expenses. With May being a
five-Sunday month, we are hopeful to continue improving our financial state.
Memorial gifts during April totaled $430. Those memorials were paid directly on the
principal of our mortgage and, when coupled with our normal monthly payment, reduced our outstanding debt to $609,960.
You have probably recently heard more about Endowments. We encourage you to
check into the program as it may be appropriate for you. Endowments are a means for
individuals to provide a legacy for long-term support of their church, but are not intended to pay our normal operating expenses. All gifts are always appreciated, but be
sure to remember we need to cover our everyday expenses when considering your giving.
And speaking of giving, remember we offer the opportunity for on-line giving which
may work well for you. You don’t need to write a check, remember to bring your envelope to church, or worry about missing contributions when you are unable to make it to
church. You can make one-time gifts or set up regular weekly or monthly giving. Just
go to our web page at: www.firstumcfoxhill.org and click on the “GIVE” button toward
the upper right. Contact Bill Bryan if you have any questions.
