THE CHIMES

Ready or not… fall is here!

The days grow cooler (please!), classes

resume for all our students and

teachers (What? Already?), football returns (“Go,

Chargers!!!”)… and this month a fresh new year of

ministry, small groups, and exciting opportunities

to grow deeper in Jesus kicks off with renewed pas-

sion and great anticipation!

In light of the recent departure of Sherry McFar-

land, (our church administrator) and Brenda Tapley

(our Music Minister), these are days of tremendous

“change” and “transition” here at SonRise Christian

Fellowship. But in the midst of forming a search

committee for a new music minister fo traditional

worship, and Greg Coppock stepping in as our inter-

im Administrative Pastor, some things never

change! “Preach the word,” the Bible says, “be pre-

pared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke

and encourage—with great patience and careful in-

struction” (2Timothy 4:2). Growing towards Christ-

like maturity as fully devoted disciples is a core val-

ue here at our church, and we are so excited about

all the new possibilities that will be available to us

beginning this fall. This month we are highlighting

the ministries of Beth Ann Murray, our wonderful

director of Children’s Ministry, and Banning Canta-

rini, our faithful Youth Pastor, as we kick off a fresh

new season for the glory of God’s Kingdom. May the

Lord continue to bless us as we seek to be a blessing

to others! ~Pastor Jerome

Childrens Ministry

Get Ready for The Fall Kick-Off! With the beautiful

weather we enjoy here in San Diego County it is

sometimes difficult to recognize when the seasons

change. Without the traditional signs and signals,

we are at the mercy of the calendar to measure our

journey through time. So since it is now August it

means that its time again for our children and fami-

lies to prepare for the journey into or back into the

wild, wild world of school, and at SonRise that

means both our preschool and Sunday schools are

back in session.

As we transition to this event it is important that we

remember that it’s not just kids who are stepping

into a room filled with strangers, but first time

teachers and seasoned educators feel their pulse

thump when facing the transition to the schedule,

structure and challenges of the classroom.

A letter of thanks...

I want to thank all of the

volunteers who came out

to help on the Rummage and

Raffle Sale. I could not have had

a better group of wonderful men

and women and young people to

work with. If I could, I would like

to thank each of you by name, but

we had so many silent workers,

that came and dug in, like all the

men that moved the donations

from the garage and made

clothes racks out of ladders. In

thinking back at how packed the

stage area was, I thought we

would never get done

by Saturday.

You all made my work easy, and

a joy. I will have to say I really

enjoyed working with everyone. I

have a special thanks to my co-

chair Joan McVeigh; she worked

by my side every day and was a

wonder on getting donations

from Fallbrook merchants, and

items for our Raffle.

I have taken note of some of the

problems we had, so when we

have our next Rummage Sale we

will be better prepared. I hope

we all get to work together again

next year.

We were blessed by the generosi-

ty of our congregation with a

wonderful array of items to sell.

Thanks again,

Judy Lindley

From the Desk of Beth Ann Murray F or the first few days, or Sun-

days, both teachers and kids

can relate since all in the class-

room may be experiencing sweaty

palms, dry mouth, and in the rare

event - a low grade panic. This

period of adjustment is normal

and it means that both teachers

and kids are on the verge of a ful-

filling experience that will be

completed in their journey into

learning.

But rest assured as we roll out

Autumn, we are excited about

making new memories, and we

all are planning to have a blast,

because there is nothing more

exciting than getting to know one

another as you get to know God.

We have some new additions to

our teaching team and we want to

welcome them to our program.

Matt, Marissa, Troy, Jessica, Por-

tia and Harmony join our team of

seasoned teachers including Ab-

by, Alexis and Juan, Alysha, Ann,

Art and Deb, Beth, Cathy and

Pete, Catie, Chad and Colby,

Chris, Dannielle, Gayle, Kassidi,

Mike, Pablo, Rachelle, Rebecca,

Sidney and Paige. Your Chil-

dren’s Ministry teaching team is

committed to our program and

all are excited about sharing their

love for Jesus and our kids.

Please reach out to them and

thank them for all they do – your

words of encouragement will do

wonders as they transition to the

rigors of the classroom.

As we kick off our year we will be

transitioning from our Summer

schedule to the Fall schedule.

Our curriculum will be “The Gos-

pel Project for Kids” for the Ele-

mentary students and “Kids Sun-

day School Place” for our pre-

schoolers. Additionally, our kids

are planning to help decorate the

Kid’s Zone downstairs, so in a few

weeks come and take a “peek”;

we have a lot of fun together.

As we close out Summer, we are

reminded that not many kids in

our area are blessed with great

support networks of grandpar-

ents, family friends, coaches,

scout leaders and Church leaders.

But here at SonRise we are

blessed. This summer we had

some awesome church adult

mentors who shared their talents

with our elementary age kids.

We focused on intergenerational

interaction and we learned how

to make and bake bread and how

to create masterpieces out of

scrap pieces of wood. Building

relationships for the “Ages” was

an important goal for our pro-

gram and all indications are we

had great success. Interaction

with our Church family is an es-

sential part of our program as we

target to engage kids individually

as well as in groups with a broad-

er base of our Church members.

Our congregation has so many

hidden talents that could be

shared and experienced by our

children. If you are interested in

sharing your gifts with the kids –

please don’t hesitate to contact

Beth Ann.

To extend our program we have

introduced something new in our


ministry this year. We are demon-

strating how serving can become a

stepping-stone to the faith of some

of our young students. Areas like

helping in the nursery or the pre-

school Sunday school rooms and

other age appropriate roles are a

few of the items we are looking

into. It’s a win-win for all and can

show how giving back can build a

stronger faith. As a child grows, a

focus on giving is one of the

strongest models of what it’s like

to follow Jesus.

Thank you Church family for pray-

ing for our SonRise Kids and their

teachers. Individually and collec-

tively you are making a difference

in their lives. Like parents, who

watch the children grow each day,

here at SonRise as we kick off Fall,

we too can see the seasons change

in the children as they move into

another year of the love of Jesus.

463 Youth Ministries

When you work in youth ministry,

your year doesn’t begin in Janu-

ary. As summer closes, the winds

of preparation and excitement

begin blowing as we prepare for

the new season of ministry. Like

many different types of fishing or

hunting seasons, the season of

youth ministry is at its peak dur-

ing the school year for us. When

the kids rifle back into class, we

make our ways back onto the cam-

puses inviting them to our rad

youth outreach programs, disci-

pleship pro-

grams, Sunday morning fellow-

ship, and into our lives in gen-

eral. More work than most com-

prehend goes into youth minis-

try. It is truly a day and night pro-

fession that requires you to be

adept to dealing with all types of

people and leading them through

all types of difficulties. The chal-

lenge for us is being intentional

about it all. We’re not here to just

be “cool” and “likable.” We’re

here to provide students with

something different than they’re

used to in world: An honest place

to honestly be who God made you

to be.

So how do we provide this com-

munity with such a reputable

youth ministry? We. Work. Tire-

lessly. Thursday and Friday night

s we don’t leave the campus of our

church until sometimes as late

as 12:00 p.m.. We host outreach

nights called OneLife and Breaka-

way where students can come en-

joy live worship, teaching, and an

environment that is healthy and

contagious. During the football

season we are committed to sup-

porting the boosters and our ath-

letes so we go to the games and

afterwards host an open event

called “Fifth Quarter.” Fifth Quar-

ter features dodgeball, food, a fun

place to hangout and draws hun-

dreds of students onto our cam-

pus. We also will have a number

of events coming up including:

Jumptober, 9to9 (24 hour fast),

The Christmas Parade, City of Ref-

uge, and much much more.

We are always in need of volun-

teers. Whether it is patrolling the

parking lot, or leading discussions

during a small group on

a Thursday night, we need vibrant

leaders to come along side of us

and partner in making an impact

in the lives of the students at our

youth program.

Preschool exploded this year with 35 chil-

dren enrolled into our program.

This is the first time in over 5

years that we started with this

many families.

The first day of the Monday-

Wednesday-Friday program we

had over 60 people praying

around the playground. Every

day we say the Pledge of Alle-

giance and then we follow it with

a prayer to start our day.

We really do only have a few

spots left so call today and put in

your student or grandchild. Not

only will they learn about Jesus

but they will fall in love with Him

too.

Sunday School is also in full

swing. We are continuing with

“The Gospel Project for Kids”

curriculum. Our buddy Heidi

Roderick requested we use this

program for our children, even

though it is a 3 year commit-

ment, we love that we have read

and studied the whole Bible

within that time period. Even

our kids who are saturated with

the Bible teaching in their daily

school lessons love this program.

Our teachers are Awesome of

course.

We will continue our intergener-

ational adventures with our

church members throughout the

school year as well. The chal-

lenge will be trying to fit them

into the kid’s busy schedules.

Chi ldren’s Min i s t ry Happenings

Awana Starts September 11th

Awana is a Bible centered, youth oriented, weekly

Bible Club. Awana is an acronym meaning

Approved Workmen Are Not Ashamed, taken from

2 Timothy 2:15.

For over 60 years, Awana has been a leader in

children’s ministry, helping churches and parents

worldwide raise children and youth to know, love

and serve Christ. More than 18,000 churches run

Awana with programs in all of the states, as well as

109 countries.

Every Awana club is organized and controlled by the

local church and reaches out to boys and girls from 3

years old through high school. The club is divided

into three segments:

Handbook Time (Bible memory and missions work)

Council Time (Bible lessons, music)

Game Time (competition, sportsmanship and

teamwork)

SonRise Christian Fellowship has been hosting an

Awana Club for 38 years, with 50 kids participating

each week. We meet Thursday afternoons from 3:30

– 5:00, during the school year. Our kids come each

week excited and ready to recite the Scripture they

have memorized. We are in need of many more

leaders to help listen to the kids recite. Anyone from

high school to 99 years old, with a heart for Jesus

and children, is eligible to be an Awana leader.

Come join in the fun!

We’ll begin this year on September 11th, with our

annual leader’s meeting on September 4th. Please

call Charlene Mann, Awana Commander, at (760)

731-1084, if you have any questions.

Los Amigos Starts September 9th

Los Amigos is our Children’s Ministry’s outreach to

the Hispanic community of Fallbrook. We offer one-

on-one tutoring to children 3rd through 6th grade

every Tuesday after school from 2:30 – 4:00pm.

The children have an opportunity to receive help

with homework, while establishing a meaningful

relationship with a mature, Christian adult. We also

take the kids on a few field trips each year. We’ve

taken them to the San Diego Zoo, San Diego Safari

Park, The Painted Earth, just to name a few. Our

annual pool party at Lila Sandschulte’s house is

always a fun time!

Our program has become well respected within the

school system of Fallbrook. Teachers and principals

alike have offered support and assistance whenever

asked.

The children all speak perfect English, and they

absolutely value the time spent with us each

Tuesday. Please call Charlene Mann at (760)533-

And now… A Word From The Commander



E very Saturday morning at 7 am a handful

Please continue to pray for this exciting ministry as the

The Lord has

called us to be a coffee shop for the community.

Brad Fox Shares

Twenty-seven souls aged 8 to 81

visited the City of Refuge in

downtown San Diego on the

weekend of August 22-23 as lay

missionaries serving food and

hope to the homeless and poor.

City of Refuge is a communal

family of David DeWitt's own off-

spring plus several local homeless

men and practicing young mis-

sionaries from around the nation.

Some of our team arrived Friday

afternoon and were greeted with a

lovely buffet dinner and fellow-

ship with the people on his team

with whom we would be serving.

After dinner cleanup we were for-

mally introduced to his extended

family and then received an over-

view of of the structure and goals

of the 15-year-old mission. David

and his clan man a 7 day-a-week

operation bringing food, clothing,

toiletries and Gospel hope to peo-

ple who live in the East Village

area of downtown. This is the area

located next to Petco Park, the

city Main Library and the Con-

vention center; some of the most

exclusive property in the county.

Later that evening we traveled to

the "bottoms"; an area located at

16th and Island near Father Joe's

Village and Extended Hands min-

istries. It is a dark area both liter-

ally and figuratively, as this is the

area where homeless folk some-

times transact drug deals or prey

upon each other for the necessi-

ties of life. It is an area of desola-

tion: abandoned lots waiting re-

development, shopping carts with

all manner of human possessions,

filthy sidewalks, food and paper

waste, wandering bodies and

damaged dreams. We broke down

into teams of 5 or 6 people and

went out to engage and learn

from the people who call this for-

saken place home. We learned of

people's unique stories and the

crushing catch-22 predicaments

of city planning, police enforce-

ment, social and medical services.

One man we spoke to, Arturo, was

a rather articulate middle-aged

man who had once been a parale-

gal. He lamented his extensive

medical problems and his unfor-

tunate choices with regard to

choosing appropriate services.

His situation was particularly

poignant as he had been robbed

of all his personal effects as well

as his priceless prescription glass-

es. He shared that he wasn't able

to travel to social program sites

due to his near blindness he

couldn't even navigate the bus

system. As part of our prior plan-

ning for the trip we were able to

give Arturo and many like him a

"care package" that eased their

plight. They were particularly

thankful for the aspirin we pro-

vided, as this is considered a luxu-

ry that they can't often afford but

desperately need. The next morn-

ing more of our team arrived and

we all loaded a large van with cas-

es of food, tables, and shade cano-

pies. We then caravanned to Ibar-

ra public elementary school some

miles east of the mission house.

There we set up the canopies and

tables and carefully loaded them

with a variety of wholesome foods

that had reached their expiration

date. Breads, vegetables and fruits

of all descriptions, dry goods,

meats, pastries and the like await-

ed our neighborhood friends. As

we prayed for their blessing, the

clients lined up by the scores.

R e a c h i n g O u t—R e a c h i n g I n


Families, individuals, old, young,

healthy, infirm, Vietnamese, His-

panic, Anglo, etc.

One could hear a variety of lan-

guages and concerns as we en-

gaged them at the tables or in the

line. Some of us "worked" the line

to pass out water, help people

pass the waiting time and to get

to know them on a deeper level.

Some asked for prayer or a Bible

and we gladly conducted them to

our nearby team of pray-ers. We

learned of their thankfulness for

the food, of their ailments or life

situations. Some were very willing

to share while others harbored

hurts and remained silent. We

couldn't help but note that while

we were performing a valuable

service for these people, it was

they who ministered to us as priv-

ileged Christians. We were able to

"get inside" the story of poor Laz-

arus who waited by the rich man's

gate seeking just a crumb or two

to sustain himself. It gave us

pause to think which character in

the parable most closely matched

our own situation. All-in-all, it

was a time of spiritual growth and

enlightenment for our little team

of SonRise lay-missionaries. We

collectively wonder what is God's

next step for us in reclaiming the

people he desperately wants to

include in His forever kingdom.

Gayle Kott Shares

In all honesty, I wasn’t sure what

to expect when I went with Brad’s

group down to the City of Refuge

in San Diego. I knew the Lord had

put it on my heart, but really was-

n’t sure I was properly equipped

for the ministry – that I would be

effective in reaching out to God’s

children in this setting, and see-

ing them through His eyes. When

we got there, I was immediately

impacted by David, the founder of

the ministry, and his message of

choosing to prefer others over

ourselves – something he and his

team embody. Of course, being

human, there are probably occa-

sional mistakes made, but you

could feel the abundant grace,

and living in community the way

they do they are true witnesses of

God’s love and compassion. The

team from SonRise was a very

diverse group ranging from teen-

agers to young parents to those

like me who are on the other side

of 50. It was a good mix, and

from my perspective we were all

working in harmony.

When we walked around down-

town Friday night, we split up

into teams. I happened to be in

Brad’s group, and was encour-

aged by his skill at engaging

street people in conversation. He

had prepared little gift bags to

give them, with toiletries and so

on, which they seemed to genu-

inely appreciate. It was an excel-

lent way to break the ice, meta-

phorically speaking. (One of them

mentioned one of the reasons for

the large number of homeless in

San Diego was the weather.) We

interacted at length with 4 men,

all of whom had their own story

and their own beliefs – one poly-

theist, two Christians, one Bud-

dhist. They each had a unique

perspective on being homeless in

San Diego – one was hoping to

return to work soon and be able

to get an apartment again; one

was extremely well educated, but

had serious medical issues and

felt the system was completely

failing him; one wouldn’t discuss

his past, but admitted that he hat-

ed being homeless – even though

he “followed the rules” he said it

was a miserable existence, and

noted that many of the drug over-

doses that occurred weekly were

intentional – suicide, in other

words; and one had been in pris-

on for 15 years and living on the

street ever since his release, I be-

lieve, but was hoping to get off

the streets soon and write the

book the Lord had put on his

heart, and start his outreach min-

istry with the proceeds.


While all four men resonated in

my heart in some way, it was the

last one, also named David, that I

related to the best – perhaps be-

cause we are both aspiring writ-

ers, perhaps because he quoted

lyrics from one of my favorite

worship songs, perhaps because

he had a wonderful sense of hu-

mor, but mostly I think because

you could feel his love for the

Lord. Not only did we pray for

him, but he prayed for us, which

truly blessed me.

Saturday presented its own op-

portunities – part of the time I

worked in the food line, where

over 100 people came to get pro-

duce, meat, bread – whatever

was available. This was a good

chance to smile and speak a word

of encouragement, but where I

really felt the presence of God

that day was praying for people

who requested it with Elias, a

Hispanic pastor who works with

City of Refuge, and his wife Alma,

along with a couple of members

from our congregation – Brad,

Rich and Karen. Being in the

presence of such godly people

and ministering alongside them

was very refreshing to my soul. I

know of some Christians who

don’t quite get the concept of the

Holy Spirit - to them it’s all about

the Father and the Son. They

should meet Elias and Alma, and

the Spirit’s presence would be-

come abundantly clear.

I am praising the Lord with hum-

ble gratitude for the opportunity

to meet each of these precious

servants and interact with His

sometimes forgotten children. If

He calls me to return, my re-

sponse will be immediate: “Here

I am, send me!”

Jean LaBlanc Shares

What I experienced through this

outreach was joy, sincerity, team-

work, and the love of Jesus

Christ. I was personally affected

by the children I served, their

sweet smiles. I was saddened by a

woman who had a black eye and

silently said a prayer for her.

There were a few senior adults

who were pushy and grabbing

food which took me by surprise. I

told them they were only allowed

a few because we have others in

line needing food too. The lady

that was baptized last week came

through my line and was very

joyful. I said to her, “Welcome to

the family!”

I am looking forward to the next

trip.

Join us as we walk the shores of

Thessalonica with this

verse-by-verse Bible study of 1 and 2 Thessa-

lonians. During this nine week study, you'll

learn how to let go of past mistakes and dis-

cover your circumstances are not coinci-

dental - God's timing is impeccable! Wheth-

er you're facing family crises, medical diag-

noses, relationship troubles, doubts, or

fears, you'll come away encouraged that

even though it may not feel that way, you are

exactly where Christ wants you to be!

T he Prayer Shawl Ministry is

a nationwide ministry which be-

gan in Harford, Connecticut in

1998. It is a prayerful ministry

which reaches out to those in

need of comfort and peace.

If you have ever received a prayer

shawl then you know the love,

peace and comfort that you re-

ceive from knowing that many

prayers were offered on your be-

half in a time when you needed to

feel God’s love in your life. I have

been blessed to feel that love dur-

ing a critical time in my life.

When Pat Boatman went on hos-

pice, the Lord put on my heart

that I needed to do a prayer

shawl for her. I pushed it aside

for a couple of weeks until Joyce

Brittain mentioned to me that

Linda Hill had a prayer shawl,

already anointed, and ready to

deliver and she would be happy

to give it to Pat. (Both Joyce and

Linda were part of the prayer

shawl ministry at a previous

church). When I delivered it to

Pat, her daughter Deb was there

and remarked to her mom, “Look

Mom, that is your favorite color!”

This really stirred in my heart to

realize how God was opening the

door to this ministry. I only

needed to be obedient and follow

His lead.

I spoke with Barbara Harvey,

who is the chairman of the Prayer

Shawl Ministry at the Methodist

Church and she encouraged me

to start one at SonRise. In fact,

she gave us three shawls to get

started. On April 6 of this year, a

new ministry was born. Joyce

agreed to be co-chairman and

seven people came forward to be

crafters. We now have eight craft-

ers, with each bringing their own

personal gifts. I praise God for

them each day.

The vision we have is to offer love

through our shawls by reaching

out to those who need some

peace and comfort in their life.

We have recently added a prayer

pocket to our ministry for which

we are excited. We are trying to

be open to whatever or wherever

God leads us. After all, this is His

ministry—we are only His hands

and feet.

Prayer Shawl Ministry

By Wilma Chain


SonRise has had a

deep con-

tinuous relationship with the Mi-

qlat orphan care program since it

began. (Miqlat is the Hebrew

word for ‘place of refuge’.) Many

of you already know the back-

ground – established in 1997 by

Dan and Kristen Gillespie, and

currently working in Malawi to

bring about the spiritual and

physical transformation of vulner-

able children and their communi-

ties. Malawi, for those of you who

don’t know, is a small country in

south east Africa, ranking as the

10th poorest nation in the world.

Over half of the population is un-

der the age of 15, and 15% of all

children under 20 are orphans,

earning it the nickname, ‘The Or-

phan Nation’. While the Malawian

people highly value their family

relationships and do what they

can to care for the young mem-

bers of their extended families,

the extreme poverty in which so

many of them live makes it a diffi-

cult task at best.

Since Miqlat’s first Hope

Center was built in Kogoya Village

in 2006, the Lord has been work-

ing in miraculous ways. A second

Hope Center was built a few years

later in Thuchila Village, and be-

tween the two, hundreds of chil-

dren have been and are being fed,

given access to health care and

education, and most importantly,

are developing personal relation-

ships with Jesus Christ. The Mi-

qlat program also gives agricultur-

al support to the community, by

teaching the Malawians new farm-

ing techniques which increase

their current yields seven fold.

When the Kogoya Hope

Center first opened, the children

had the dull eyes, orange hair and

distended bellies associated with

malnutrition and lack of medical

care. The workers who were help-

ing with registration saw a look of

wariness in the children’s eyes, as

if they weren’t sure they could

trust the ‘azungu’ (foreigners). It

may have sounded too good to be

true to them, or maybe they just

didn’t know what to expect.

By the time I was blessed to visit

Malawi two years ago, that had

changed - the children were

laughing, playing, their eyes shin-

ing – the majority of them

healthy, full of life and love. But

that isn’t the only transformation.

Children who wouldn’t have been

able to attend elementary school

because they couldn’t afford a uni-

form are now receiving an educa-

tion.

By Gayle Kott

FROM THE MISSION FIELD


Secondary school (high school) requires a tuition fee

that many orphans cannot afford, but through Mi-

qlat a number of the older children are now able to

continue their education. Even more amazing, espe-

cially for an orphan in Malawi, several of the chil-

dren from the Miqlat program are now in college,

gaining the skills they need to pursue a career and

allowing them to break the cycle of poverty. Some of

those are nursing students, who want to reach out

and help their communities.

The Miqlat staff is very excited at the prospect of

opening a primary school at both of our Hope Cen-

ters. The government schools where the children are

currently attending have 1600 students, 12 teachers,

few desks, no books, and no plans for more schools

to be built.

Even with the tutoring program Miqlat currently of-

fers, many of the children struggle to pass the 8th

grade exams which are required before entering sec-

ondary school.

There is currently a very effective Preschool at both

centers, using the Montesorri teaching technique

and curriculum, which will be carried on into the

primary schools. The goal is to build four classrooms

at each center, and to open in September 2015, and

funds are actively being raised to accomplish this.

Dan and Kristen are humbly grateful for all of the

support the Miqlat program has received from Son-

Rise over the years. The need is still great, but to-

gether we are making a difference for the Lord’s

Kingdom, one child at a time. As the children them-

selves say, “Zikomo Kwambiri” – thank you very

much!

SonRise and Malawi By Judy Saunders

W hen God first put the Malawian orphan crisis

on the hearts of those who had traveled to the

country, we had no idea how He would bring forth

His plans on behalf of the children. We have

watched in amazement as our faithful Lord has

touched the hearts of many in this congregation to

provide the means to support orphan children, to

drill wells, purchase vehicles, construct feeding and

educational facilities, provide medical supplies, and

send teams to minister in His name. God has spo-

ken into the hearts of some of our folks to lovingly

sew new outfits and at the same time He has nudged

others to provide the fabric, trims, buttons, and

bows for these beautifully designed and crafted gar-

ments.

On Sunday, September 14th, members of the Miqlat

ministry will have an opportunity to share with our

congregation an update on all that God has been do-

ing lately through His people. Those who have never

heard about the Orphan Sponsorship Program, will

have the opportunity to learn how it works and will

be given the chance to be partnered with a youngster

who is in need in Malawi. On the patio following the

service, information will be available about orphan

sponsorship, future mission trips, the sewing pro-

ject, and the establishment of a prayer group. There

are ways for every member of our church family to

participate in God’s work in this part of His incredi-

ble world.

Though others hold the earthly titles of “director,”

“administrator,” and “board member,” we know

without a doubt that it is our Lord Jesus who has

conceived, orchestrated, and grown this ministry

from the very beginning, and it is to Him we give the

honor and glory and praise.

Created For His Glory Page 16 The Chimes September 2014

His Name Was Ralph

By Rick Founds

His name was Ralph, but every-

body called him “Skip”. He was

short and bald, with the voice of

Darth Vader on Steroids. Skip

had more energy, enthusiasm

and creativity than any of the

kids who attended his youth

group. Having been an orphan,

he knew just how to relate to, and

encourage anyone who had ever

felt abandoned, lost, or uncared

for. Skip was a master of empow-

erment. He’d help you to articu-

late your hopes and dreams, and

then do everything possible to

make them come true.

His life’s passion was to give

young people a sense of im-

portance and accomplishment,

and to assist them in discovering

their purpose in life. He created

countless opportunities for local

kids to be a part of performing

arts groups. These groups would

play in church and entertain at

fairs and other community

events. Designed to use as many

of the arts as possible, and thus

involve as many kids as possible,

he would have them singing,

dancing, acting, playing instru-

ments, setting lights, making

graphics and costumes, and con-

structing sets. I count myself

privileged to be one of the many

who were fortunate enough to

benefit from Skip’s unique men-

toring style. He lived everyday as

a practical example of Jesus.

When you were with him, you felt

genuinely important and appreci-

ated.

One summer morning, while rid-

ing his bicycle to work, he felt

pain in his chest, stopped pedal-

ing, set his bike aside, and lay

down on the grass. He breathed

his final breath on earth and the

next moment took his first breath

of heavenly air. His funeral was

packed with people and bright

balloons.

The work of God through my life

can be attributed in large part to

this short, bald, wonderful man

of God, with the Darth Vader

voice.

Rick leads worship with the

team at SonRise’s Sunday morn-

ing worship service—10:30 am.

You'll often see his wife Debbie

up in the booth, behind the audio

console mixing sound for second

service. Thank you Rick and

Debbie for your wonderful ser-

vice to the Lord!


Student Min is t ry

A s I sit here writing, with just a day left

before I head off to start the next chap-

ter of my life at Point Loma Nazarene Uni-

versity, I am simply in awe of You; Wonderful, Awe-

some, Extravagant God. I cannot thank You enough

for the beautiful ways You have spoken to me… even

before I could discern Your voice. I am so reminis-

cent at this time in my life, and it feels funny be-

cause there are these entirely new experiences

awaiting. I just remember being this shy, timid, in-

secure girl. I was longing for something deeper and

craving something that, I soon found out, this world

does not offer. Thank You for capturing my heart. I

am so thankful, God, for Your call to us all to be

servant’s for Your Glorious Kingdom, and I thank

You for those who answered that call and were able

to teach me multiple things that You had for me to

learn. I spent countless hours spending time with

students, serving people of all ages, fellowshipping

at my high school, praying with my basketball team

before every game and just loving others and being

loved by others inside and outside of the “church

setting”. I don’t say these things to boast, flaunt or

brag… I say these things in awe of You, Father. You

have given me the opportunities to experience what

my heart longs for— compassion, kindness, love,

friendship, fellowship, community. To be a part of

something that doesn't revolve around myself, but

that revolves around You and glorifying Your Holy

name. I cannot put into words how thankful I am,

Lord, that You spoke to my heart through such an

amazing church and church family. I have learned

what discipleship looks like, how to really pour into

someone’s life, how to serve wholeheartedly, how to

trust in You with deep faith because You always

know best, how okay it is to not put on a “picture

perfect” facade and be honest with my struggles,

doubts and deepest sins, how to hold each other

accountable, how to love people, meet them where

they are at and walk with them through anything

and everything. I have not just heard of these

truths but seen them lived out by people among my

church, and I am so in awe of You, God, yet again. I

know that there is no way… NO. WAY. to live like a

true servant of God without Jesus in my heart, and

I know that He lives among my church family. I also

thank You Lord for Your ability to break down gen-

erational barriers. I have seen You working in that.

I can’t thank You enough for the youth ministry I

was a part of, but I know Your work in me didn't

stop at the Wilson Center. It took people willing to

answer Your intergenerational call to teach me even

more about mentorship, and I am so blessed to have

the basic knowledge of such a vital part of our

faith, so that I may continue learning and growing.

All of my fears, anxieties and concerns for my next

chapter disappear when I think about how much You

can do in a span of four years. You transformed my

heart and redeemed my life, Lord. There is no such

thing as fear in Your wondrous love. As I sit here

writing, with hours, minutes, seconds slowly fading…

I am thankful for my experiences and cherished

memories, yet ready to advance knowing God is so

obviously and apparently before me on this journey.

A Special Note For Those Who Grieve

Responding To Loss

I n Genesis 23, the Bible relates

the story of the death and bur-

ial of Sarah, Abraham’s wife. The

chapter begins, “Sarah lived to be

a hundred and twenty-seven years

old. She died at Kiriath Arba (that

is, Hebron) in the land of Canaan,

and Abraham went to mourn for

Sarah and to weep over her.”

Abraham’s immediate response

was to mourn and weep for his

wife. He made a clear choice to

mourn. How have you done this?

Rev. Noel Castellanos says that in

healthy grieving “there are more

than just a few tears. There is a

real sense of honesty about the

pain. To deal with grief in a

healthy way, there has to be a time

of just expressing your deep hurt.”

Holy God, I choose to mourn and

to express my grief freely, knowing

that this is the only path to heal-

ing. Amen..

Grief Share: From

Mourning to Joy

GriefShare offers support, friend-

ship and sharing for people who

have lost a loved one. We meet on

Mondays at 7pm in the Fireside

Room. This is a very loving and

Christian based series which fol-

lows a DVD program as well as

personal relationships. Please

contact Jan Hilton for more infor-

mation.

study and am attending.”

“Grief Share has given me hope.”

apart.”

“Brought me back into relationship with God and the

church.”

“I would be a mess if it weren't for GriefShare.”

story I could cry, I could even laugh, and I didn't feel

guilty or judged by anybody else.”

“This group is amazing. It fills my tank every week.”

Prayer force


No Prayer, No Power

by John Piper

This kind cannot be driven out by anything

but prayer (Mark 9:29).

Watch and pray that you may not enter into tempta-

tion (Mark 14:38).

I recently rearranged my study at home. But I did not

remove the prayer corner or the prayer bench. I made

it more private. All I have ever read and experienced

teaches me that deep spiritual influence for the good

of sinners and the glory of God comes from men and

women who give themselves to prayer and medita-

tion.

I just read, for example, about the secret of Charles

Simeon, who endured great hardships in his powerful

54-year pastorate in Cambridge (1782-1836). His

friend, T. Housman, stayed with him for a few

months and tells us something of this man’s devotion:

Never did I see such consistency, and reality of devo-

tion, such warmth of piety, such zeal and love…

Invariably he arose every morning, though it was the

winter season, at four o’clock; and after lighting his

fire, he devoted the first four hours of the day to pri-

vate prayer and the devotional study of the Scrip-

tures…Here was the secret of his great grace and spir-

itual strength. Deriving instruction from such a

source, and seeking it with such diligence, he was

comforted in all his trials, and prepared for every du-

ty.

It is true for individuals. And it is true for churches.

No prayer, no power. And we need spiritual power.

Consider the first quote (above) from Mark 9. There

are spiritual forces that Jesus says are very hard to

overcome. His disciples asked, “Why could we not

cast it out?” Jesus answered, “Insufficient prayer!”

What did he mean? Probably not that they hadn’t

prayed over the demonized boy, but that they had

not lived in prayer. They had been caught in a prayer-

less period of life. Notice: Jesus cast out the demon

without praying: “You dumb and deaf spirit, I com-

mand you, come out of him, and never enter him

again.” But Jesus had prayed. He lived in prayer. He

was ready when evil came. But the disciples had be-

come weak and negligent in their praying. And they

were powerless in the face of strong evil forces. “This

kind cannot be driven out by anything but prayer.”

In other words, without persistent prayer we have no

offense. As a church we are meant to invade and plun-

der the strongholds of Satan. But no prayer, no pow-

er. The same is true of defense. Look at the second

quote (above) from Mark 14. If we are not vigilant we

will enter into temptation. Our defense and

our offense as a church is an active, persistent, ear-

nest, believing prayer force.

Please pray, and ask God to show you if you should be

a part of the Prayer Ministry here at SonRise. We

have many opportunities weekly to gather for group

prayer or to meet for private prayer. We are also

available after Sunday services, or you may call the

church office, or email us your requests through our

website.

Kairos Prison Ministry Kairos Inside Testimony

The darkness…the world is dark.

Walking through the midst of this

emptiness one becomes blind and

numb as I was. 5 years might not

seem long…however in my dark-

ness I felt the eternity of it. Wasted

time I mourn this night. It is this

darkness, this void wherein thou-

sands reside and yet alone you find

yourself seeking that which may

light your path. A hunger for death

became an energizing power as I

roam the darkness. Unforgiving

became my Kingdom, in it raising

anger, rage, and bitterness towards

all. Contrast to that my soul longed

and desired for a beam of light, just

a spark of truth to light my dark

road to guide me elsewhere. I be-

came aware that not only was this

not much of a road but a body of

water in which I was drowning.

There was nothing around; above…

below…nothing to grasp but cur-

rents of that which stole my soul.

When I gazed below into my hand

the pain of realizing that which

sank me was unbearable. A rock…

one measly rock, a stone which

dragged me further down into the

dark waters.

Why am I not letting go?

How do you let go of that with

which you fell in love with?

I found solace in the gray but my

soul cried for light. Slowly un-

clenching my fist the rock slipped

out of my hand and sank out of

sight, as I soared upward to

breathe the air I had denied myself.

October 16-19, 2008, The (Kairos)

weekend…my spirit is renewed

with a fire of love. I now find my-

self running through this darkness

lighting the paths with the fire (so)

that others may find their way. At

the middle of serving a three year

S.H.U. (the hole) term for attempt-

ed murder I came to know Christ

while single-celled for 10 of those

(36) months. It was the greatest

and most peaceful time of my life. I

did not surrender completely

though and Satan dragged me back

down. I became lost in the fog for

years, dying every day for His pres-

ence.

The (Kairos) weekend was filled

with His (glorious) presence. I

served Him as a loner church

(member) the first time around…

now I know who the church really

is…(me and my brothers and sis-

ters in community). His Spirit was

moving ever so mightily and grace-

fully among the men, my brothers

(in Christ). He came into the dark

to get me out via a small army of

living saints with Him to show His

love and (to) remind us that He

hadn’t forgotten us.

May the merciful Father bless each

one of you in abundance and ever

keep His peace upon your heads. I

have had a desire to use the follow-

ing words and I pray you all will

hear them and know that they are a

testimony of your service…”Blessed

is he who comes in the name of The

Lord!” (Psalm 118:26)

You were all here in Spirit, ya’ll

brought Him, His love to the lost…I

have no doubt. Surely you shall be

blessed!!

Your fellow Slave,

T.

You can be a blessing in the

Kairos Prison Ministry in the

following ways:

1. 1. Write 40 handwritten let-

ters of encouragement, each

saying the same thing, place

each letter in an unsealed en-

velope, then place all 40 letters

in a clear plastic Ziploc bag

with a copy of the letter show-

ing. Bring filled Ziploc bag into

Church Office.

2. 2. Watch for a bulletin an-

nouncement for when to bake

cookies. Each dozen cookies

needs to be packaged in a clear

gallon sized Ziploc bag. Our

goal is 351 dozen! These cook-

ies will be delivered for the

Kairos Inside Weekend.

3. 3. Join the small team of

men from SonRise who minis-

Fallbrook firefighters assoc.

All across our nation there are 9/11 Memorial Stair climbs organized to remember the victims of 9/11. This

is the fourth year Fallbrook Firefighters will team up with the Fallbrook Land Conservancy to utilize

Monserate Mountain to create our 9/11 Memorial Hike. September 13, 8:00am to 10:30am.

The hike resembles the type of terrain and

vegetation that wildland firefighters endure

and the elevation gain simulates the height

of the twin towers. Funds raised from the

hike are donated to the National Fallen

Firefighters Foundation and Homes for

Our Troops. Our event remembers all

those who were effected by 9/11, civilians

and responders. We take time to

remember and honor our military, law

enforcement, firefighters, first responders,

and EMS personnel.

At our event this year we will have a 9/11

survivor, World Memorial, raffles, and

Crabcakes911 Food truck! Come and honor

the memory of those who gave it all.
