Worshiping I once knew a man who had a pet caterpillar. Now, I would agree that having a pet caterpillar is odd, but this man was quite fond of the little guy. He had a little box where the caterpillar would hang out all day, and at night he would come out and snuggle on the guy’s lap. Now my friend, as you might guess, was a very faithful church goer and we really wanted his pet to go along with him. One day he stood next to the box and called out, “Little caterpillar, I am going to church this morning, would you like to come with me?” No response. Disappointed, but not beaten he waited about five minutes and tried again; “Little caterpillar, the music will be great and the preacher is really good!” No response. Another 10 minutes goes by and he tries one last time; “Come on little guy, go to church with me.” Out of the box he heard; “Give me a minute will ya, I am putting my shoes on!”
Caterpillars are not much to look at and they inch along in life with their legs working feverishly just to go a couple of inches. Last September, you may recall, we had hoards of the little guys crawling around the streets of Chandler. USA Today even did a story on the plethora of the sixteen-legged creatures. Children were creeped out or fascinated, and adults just tried to avoid them.
Of course we know that caterpillars do not stay caterpillars. They hide out in a cocoon to emerge 4 weeks later as a beautiful butterfly! No more crawling around the ground, now they flit and fly through the air. Scientists tell us that in the 4 weeks in the cocoon the caterpillar completely breaks down into nothing more than mush and then it is reorganized as a butterfly. It doesn’t die in the cocoon, in fact they say it retains its memory. It enters as a caterpillar and emerges as a butterfly.
This month Christians will celebrate Easter; the day that Jesus, the Son of God, rose from the dead. After being in a tomb for three days, He emerges alive and well. The bible then teaches us; “We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.” (Romans 6:4) What we celebrate at Easter is that we went into the tomb with Jesus, just as a caterpillar enters a cocoon. We emerge from that tomb a new person, a changed person, much like a caterpillar becomes a butterfly. We enter as sinners and emerge as saints. We enter without hope for the future, and emerge with the certainty of an eternity in heaven.
So why don’t you get your shoes on and go to church this Sunday….caterpillars are welcomed there.
In Christ,

Spring Retreat: Compassion Fatigue Retreat: Tuesday, April 28th, 6:30p.m. to 9:30p.m. at The Pathway Center. Join us for this unique retreat with other sisters in Christ at Risen Savior including your leadership team and ministry volunteers. This is a wonderful opportunity for fellowship and growing together. All women, members, guests and friends are invited!
In this very important and interactive workshop, you will learn that self care is not self indulgent, it is Biblical and it is necessary. Discover practical tools for self care so that you can serve from a place of abundance, health, and wellness in 2015. Compassion Fatigue is a very real phenomenon that often occurs to caregivers as well as those in ministry. Serving, caring for, and giving to others day in and day out is very taxing and can take its toll on the mind, heart, body and spirit. It can result in secondary trauma, fatigue, and burnout where we no longer experience joy in service and can tax all of the systems of the body.
The reality is that we cannot pour out from an empty cup…nor were we meant to. Jennifer Louden said, “Self-care is not selfish or self-indulgent. We cannot nurture others from a dry well. We need to take care of our own needs first, then we can give from our surplus, our abundance.” Scripture commands us to “love our neighbor as ourself.” In order to truly love and care for others, we have to fill our own well through self care activities so that we can pour out from our abundance and truly love others AS we love ourself. To rsvp or to receive weekly devotions and encouragement, please reach out to Annie Wolf at [email protected] or 480-203-1880 or Kathleen Ramirez at [email protected] or 480-895-6782 ext. 218.

The Perfect Place The Perfect Place is an Adult Day Care and a nonprofit organization located on the west side of the campus of the Risen Savior Lutheran Church in Sun Lakes. Here, a loved one may spend a morning or an afternoon with the staff and volunteers who provide a loving and caring social program. The program opens with a short devotion after which everyone shares something about themselves: where they grew up, what they did for a living, family life or favorite activities. Then the fun continues through the day with laughter playing cards, bingo, a bean bag toss, entertainment, snacks and a short session of chair exercises.
Volunteers are welcome. If you believe your family or a caregiver would benefit from this service contact The Perfect Place. Call Judy Waltersdorf at 480-895-2892, or send an email to [email protected]. The Perfect Place is located at 23914 S. Alma School Road, Sun Lakes, AZ 85248.

LCEF The True Value of Your Investment A Lutheran Church Extension Fund (LCEF) investment represents more than a monetary “net worth”. It represents a desire to empower ministries to build God’s kingdom. The value of the investment to your family is not in the balance, but in the fact that you support ministries, schools and church workers. As you periodically review your beneficiary designations, tell those you name why LCEF is special to you. If you need to designate a beneficiary, go to lcef.org. Your family will know exactly what you wished for your investments after your passing and avoid possible probate proceedings. Find out more at lcef.org or call 1-800-843-5233.

Risen Savior Monthly Financial Review You may notice that the following looks a little different than what is typically published in the newsletter. There are a few reasons for the change.
1. We have had requests from congregants to publish summary level information with
more narrative about the operations. The information below is our first pass at
developing that format.
2. The Risen Savior newsletter is available on the rslcs.org website and we would like to
limit the quantity and type of information made available to the general public.
The following detailed reports are available to members and attendees of Risen Savior Lutheran Church. Please contact Susan Mello, our Business Manager, to receive this information. Susan’s email is: [email protected]
