The true way and the sure
way to friendship is through
humility-being open to each
other, accepting each other
just as we are, knowing each
other.
Mother Teresa
Accepting Each Other
Help us accept each other
John 17:20-23:
“I’m praying not only for them
But also for those who will believe in me
Because of them and their witness about me.
The goal is for all of them to become one heart and mind—
Just as you, Father, are in me and I in you,
So they might be one heart and mind with us.
Then the world might believe that you, in fact, sent me.
The same glory you gave me, I gave them,
So they’ll be as unified and together as we are—
I in them and you in me.
Then they’ll be mature in this oneness,
And give the godless world evidence
That you’ve sent me and loved me” (The Message, by Eugene Peterson).
This is Jesus’ longest prayer recorded in scripture. He is about to leave the
disciples. He knows he is about to be betrayed by Judas. This prayer expresses Jesus love
for the disciples and his desire that they be unified. He knows the mission before them is
great; they will need the loving support of each other to remain steadfast to the task of
growing the Kingdom.
There will always be differences among us. The challenge is to respect our differences as
we give witness as followers of Christ. We have all missed the mark! We are all in need
of grace and forgiveness! How we treat one another matters! When we learn to accept
differences while maintaining Christ-like love and kindness we honor Christ and grow the
Kingdom of God!
I would like to thank everyone who has participated in the Holy Conversations. I give
thanks to God for your willingness to share openly, listen deeply and not judge based on
differences of opinion!
Please stay tuned to the bulletin and newsletter for upcoming topics to be discussed.
With Christian love, joy, & gratitude,
Andi

I would like to thank Deb Taylor, Dave Taylor, and Joe Cavalluzzi for faithfully
representing Jonesboro UMC at Annual Conference June 12-15. One of the best parts of attending
AC is to hear reports that celebrate and communicate God’s blessings. You are a generous
congregation! The most generous I have had the privilege of serving alongside as I begin 32 years
of ministry! I am grateful to share that the NC Conference has received 7.8 million dollars from
UMCOR to assist the thousands of folks from Eastern NC who have been impacted by hurricanes.
Thank you for your generous contributions to UMCOR which has multiplied many times over!
I would also like to express my sincere gratitude to all who contribute time, energy, monies and
food to help makes VBS a huge success to the children in our neighborhood.
I celebrate God’s generosity and your generosity as we share with our neighbors!

A new way to give to JUMC
If you shop on Amazon you can now help Jonesboro United Methodist Church.
We are now registered as a charitable organization on AmazonSmile. This is a simple
way to help the church without hurting your wallet.
What is AmazonSmile? This is a website operated by Amazon that lets you enjoy the
same wide selection of products, low prices, and convenient shopping features as on
Amazon.com. The difference is that when you shop at AmazonSmile
(smile.amazon.com), the AmazonSmile foundation donates 0.5% of the price of eligible
purchases to the charitable organizations selected by you. Also through AmazonSmile’s
product donation experience, Charity Lists, you can browse, purchase, and donate
products directly to us. There is no additional charge to you or to the church.
How do I participate: When you shop Amazon, go to the smile.amazon.com web site
instead of Amazon.com. On the right you should see a box that shows charities from
which you may choose. Below that is a place to type in Jonesboro United Methodist
Church which will then take you to a list of Methodist Churches. Please make sure you
click on Jonesboro. Once you’ve done that you are taken to Amazon to shop. If you are
a prime member that information will still be in effect. That’s it – that’s all you do to
participate.
If you have any questions, please contact the church office and we will talk you through
the process.
Holy conversations
As people of faith how do we respond to current issues like sexuality, gun
control, racism and the confederate flag? What is the role of scripture and Jesus’
teachings as we grapple with politically charged topics that are in the daily news?
Every Sunday and throughout the week we claim to be Easter people. We believe in a
risen Savior who continues to lead, guide and direct us in all things through the Holy
Spirit. I would like to thank everyone who participated in the immigration discussion.
Our gatherings were rich with fellowship and vulnerable with open sharing.
I am also grateful for Evelyn Watson for serving as Coordinator for our meals prior to
discussion. Please stay tuned to the bulletin as we will discuss sexuality later this
summer.
We will take a respite over the next several weeks and resume in mid August.
Gratefully,
Andi

Help us accept each other as Christ accepted us.
Teach us as sister, brother, each person to embrace.
Be present, Lord, among us and bring us to believe
We are ourselves accepted and meant to love and live.
Teach us, O Lord, your lessons, as in our daily lives
We struggle to be human and search for hope and faith.
Teach us to care for people, for all not just for some,
To love them as we find they or as they might become.
Let your acceptance change us, so that we may be moved
In living situations to do the truth in love;
To practice your acceptance until we know by heart
The table of forgiveness and laughter’s healing heart.
Lord, for today’s encounters with all who are in need,
Who hunger for acceptance, for righteousness and bread,
We need new eyes for seeing, new hands for holding on;
Renew us with your Spirit; Lord free us, make us one!
Help us accept each other. By Fred Kaan
Story behind the hymn Fred Kaan (1929-2009), though ordained in the United Reformed Church and serving in England, was a native of
Haarlem, The Netherlands. Kaan explains the origins of the hymn, “Help us accept each other”:
“This text was set in motion upon reading a Bible study article Mrs. Jackie Mattonen had written for the Cumberland
Presbyterian Church in the USA. It was almost accidentally and at the last moment included in the fourth edition of Cantate
Domino [an ecumenical and cross-cultural hymnal published by the World Council of Churches in 1974], … and it so
happened that my “Hymn of acceptance” was just the right length to fill the two blank pages that needed filling.”
The text appeared in Kaan’s collection Break Not the Circle (1975) for the first time in the U.S. The words became more
widely sung when they were set to music by American composer John Ness Beck (1930-1987) as an anthem. Beck’s anthem
setting was then adapted as a hymn tune ACCEPTANCE.
This is one of the most powerful hymns on reconciliation and forgiveness composed in the last half of the 20th century.
Romans 15:7 provides a scriptural basis for stanza 1: “Receive one another, then, just as Christ also received you, to God’s
glory.” The hymn also reflects Ephesians 4:15: “But practicing the truth in love, we will in all things grow up into Christ, who
is the head.”
Kaan died Oct. 4 at the age of 80 after a long struggle with cancer and Alzheimer’s disease. Though one of the most prophetic
and vigorous voices in 20th-century hymnody has been silenced, we shall continue to sing his hymns

Anna Dixon
I graduated from NC State University with a Bachelor
of Science in Horticultural Science. Since graduation I have
started a job with Old North State Landscape Development, Inc.
in Durham, NC as Assistant Project Manager.
During my time as a youth at JUMC, I was touched in many
ways. I found mentors, life long friends, role models, and
guardians. The support system at this church was a blessing, to
say the least. I would not
be the person I am
without each and every
person I crossed paths
with at Jonesboro. Love is
plentiful everywhere here
and God is good.
I am Jenni Dalrymple and I graduated
from Lee County High School. I will be
attending Central Carolina Community College
in the fall before transferring to a four year
college.
I have been attending Jonesboro United
Methodist Church for over a year now, and I
have been very blessed with how welcoming
everyone has been towards me. I have loved my
time spent in Sunday School and Worship, and
look forward to it each week. This church has
shown me nothing but kindness, and I will
always be thankful for that.
CONGRATULATIONS...

I would like to thank you for your prayers, encouragement
and support, not only during the 5 years as a part of the Jonesboro
family, but these past 4 years while I was in school. On May 11th
2019 I graduated Cum Laude with a Bachelors in Business
Administration - Marketing and a minor in Christian studies from
Campbell University. Currently I am traveling as an office director
with a Lifeway camp called Student Life for Kids. The Lord has led
me into seasonal ministry the past 4 summers, and I know this labor
is not in vain. I am currently praying for a door to be open for a full
time marketing or event coordinating position in the Raleigh area,
and would be so grateful for you to be praying with me.
Madeline Edwards
I just graduated from Queens University in Charlotte, NC. I
graduated with my Bachelor of Science in Nursing. This is my second
degree - I graduated with a degree in Communication from NC State
University in 2013.
I will be starting my job as a medical surgical nurse at Mercy Hospital in
Charlotte, NC at the end of July. Within the next year, I plan on applying to
grad school to pursue a master's degree to become an acute care nurse
practitioner.
JUMC has been a constant support system
throughout my life. I am appreciative to the
church body for the encouragement to
pursue my dreams, and for giving me the
moral foundation needed to be a strong
Christian. I pray that as a nurse I will be
able to continue the work of the Lord

2018 North Carolina Annual Conference, United Methodist Church
Submitted by Deb Tayler
Generosity in All People In June, equal numbers of lay and ordained members of the NC Annual Conference gathered in Greenville to celebrate, serve
and conduct business. Jonesboro UMC voting delegates were Pastor Andi Woodhouse and Deb Taylor, as the elected
Delegate to Annual Conference. Joe Cavalluzzi and David Taylor served as voting delegates for the Fairway District.
Faith-Full
At Annual Conference, we · sang hymns and praise songs; · prayed; · shared communion; · experienced musical offerings; ·
memorialized pastors and pastors’ spouses who have gone on to Glory in the past year; · heard the Word from exceptional
preachers; · engaged in Bible study; and · celebrated the ordination of new lay missioners and clergy persons.
Beyond these “obviously religious” moments, the Spirit ruled throughout the business of Annual Conference as well.
Ministry
Oh, the lives that are changed by United Methodists ministries!
· The NC Conference UMC operates eight disaster response centers and five satellite housing centers that are
rebuilding lives devastated by Hurricane Matthew in 2016 (yes, still) and Hurricane Florence in 2018. Since October 2016,
NCCUMC Disaster Response Ministry has repaired 847 homes; 267 more are in progress. Teams have come from 35 other
states to help, and 18,000 volunteers from NC and elsewhere have given 599,000 hours equating to $14 million of labor. The
United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR) has contributed $7.8 million for this ministry.
Nonetheless: 13,000 homeowners are still waiting for help after Hurricane Florence. NCCUMC Disaster Response
Ministry restores hope to families who thought they were abandoned. If your small group, family or bunch of friends feels a
call to help, see www.nccumc.org/outreach/disaster-response for details on how to get started.
· NC Conference youth have set a goal to raise $500,000 for NC storm response. Through June 15, more than
$200,000 had been raised for the Youth Storm Fund, and the NC Conference mission endowment will match these funds
dollar for dollar up to $500,000. JUMC recently contributed $100 from its storm relief funds and $150 from individual
donations to this effort.
· JUMC contributed $100 from your Second Mile giving to a special offering for Rotifunk Hospital in Sierra Leone.
Every day, thousands of people with treatable health conditions die there due to inadequate resources like clean water,
electricity, medical equipment and supplies, medicines and skilled healthcare workers. The $13,430 raised by the special
offering will help rebuild, staff, and operate a full service, high-quality hospital and community health center.
· This year United Methodist Women celebrates its founding 150 years ago by a group of eight women who started
the organization to meet the needs of the hungry, thirsty, needy and lonely. Today the organization is 800,000 women strong!
Recently, Partners in Ministry in Laurinburg became an official UMW National Mission Initiative.
Connectional Business
The business of Annual Conference cements and celebrates our connection. Here are some highlights; get all the details at the
NC Conference web site – that’s NCCUMC.org.
· The Conference is working diligently to reduce its budget, and delegates approved a 2021 budget that is 23.13%
lower than what has been approved for the 2020 budget.
Life Together Page 11
At the end of broken dreams · Laity elected lay delegates, and clergy elected clergy delegates, to the 2020 General and Jurisdictional Conferences.
Eight lay and eight clergy delegates were elected for General Conference, May 5-15 in Minneapolis. Eight lay and eight
clergy delegates—plus five alternate laity and five clergy delegates—were elected for the Southeastern Jurisdictional
Conference, July 15-18, 2020.
· On recommendation from related Conference committees, delegates voted to sell the residence used to house the
Bishop assigned to our Annual Conference. It is expected that the proceeds of this sale, as well as funds that have been saved
in preparation for future repairs, will instead fund a housing allowance for the Bishop in perpetuity. This will remove
$60,000 in annual expense and set-asides from the Conference budget.
· The Annual Conference body approved 10 resolutions—proposals and position statements presented by churches,
groups and last summer’s Annual Conference Session for Youth. See box with details.
Each year the business of United Methodist Annual Conference changes. What never changes is our commitment to
being Christ’s hands and feet through the love of our never-changing God.
Annual Conference Resolutions
The 2019 Annual Conference adopted resolutions that encourage—
Energy efficiency in churches;
Nar-Anon groups and substance abuse education in churches;
Inclusion of more diverse cultural expressions during Conference and local youth events;
Serving of fair trade coffee in churches;
Actions in response to climate change, including faithful Creation care in churches;
Agreement on “Full Communion” with The Episcopal Church, which includes participation in Communion; transferability
of members; mutual recognition of ministries; and efforts to express, strengthen and enable our common life, witness and
service;
Opposition to solitary confinement more than 15 days in NC prisons;
Understanding how laws and events govern the lives of our immigrant neighbors via NCCUMC Immigration Ministry Task
Force updates and seeking out balanced sources of information, as well as establishing district liaisons for immigration
ministries;
Calling on the 2020 General Conference to clarify the definition of “youth” in UMC ministries as ages 12 through 18 (and up
to 24 in central conferences); and
Calling for the repeal of the Traditional Plan at the 2020 General Conference and removal of discriminatory language in the
Book of Discipline, as well as urging local UMCs to ensure LGBTQIA+ (and all) persons are welcomed and included in
membership and leadership positions as called for in the Book of Discipline.
To read the complete resolutions, see www.nccumc.org/ac2019/resolutions/.
This cross used throughout Annual Conference was made of debris from homes and
churches devastated by Hurricane Florence last fall.

UMM Senior Supper
On the evening of June 17, the UMM honored two high
school graduates--Keven Ramirez and Jenni Dalrymple-- at the
annual Senior Supper held at the parsonage (a 3rd graduate, Tyler
Soule, was unable to attend).
The supper was attended by seven of our UMM (Lucas
Cannady, Joe Cavalluzzi, Van Groce, Jr., Kevin Grossfuss, Bill
Huggins, Kris Kenner and Dave Wolters) along with seven
guests. (In addition to the graduates and their families the guests
were Andi Woodhouse, Barb Cavalluzzi and Janice Wolters).
Thanks are extended to Barb Cavalluzzi for preparing the baked
ziti entree, Van Groce, Jr. for preparing the salad and Libby
Grossfuss for making the desserts. Each graduate received a
small gift from the UMM. In addition, Pastor Andi Woodhouse
was inducted as an honorary member of the JUMC UMM in
gratitude for her support of UMM ministries and events since
she has been JUMC’s pastor.
Keven and Jenni both graduated this year from Lee
County High School. Keven and his family have been a part of
the JUMC family for many years. Jenni and her family are not
members of the JUMC but she has faithfully attended the Youth
Sunday School class and the 11am worship service for the last
two years. Keven and Jenni will both be attending Central
Carolina Community College next year with plans to eventually
transfer to North Carolina State.
