SUMMARY:Webinar 2 of 2: Living in Third Spaces: Where the church meets asylum seekers
DESCRIPTION:This “Perspectives on the Border” webinar series on immigration is a partnership project with Rev. Dr. Jay Alanis\, the Lutheran Seminary Program in the Southwest (LSPS)\, and the following ELCA synods: Gulf Coast\, Northern Texas-Northern Louisiana\, Sierra Pacific\, and Southwestern Texas. \nThere are two sessions\, and we are offering both for only $50! \nSession 1: Theological Perspectives on Immigration from the U.S. Mexico Borderlands (May 13\, 3pm Central) \nThe recent refugee and migrant crisis along the U.S. – Mexico border provides a window into the complex social\, political\, and cultural worldview of two neighbor nations\, a location and human condition that calls for a theological response to how we treat ‘the other.’ The current pandemic has exacerbated the human response to migration. The webinar will offer theological perspectives on immigration as a border-crossing response of faith. \nSession 2: Living in Third Spaces: Where the church meets asylum seekers (May 14\, 3pm Central) \nThis webinar will explore liminal space as a third space of faithful living and offer theological perspectives on liminality as sacramental\, eucharistic space where the church encounters the migrant other. \nRegister here. \nThe sessions will run about an hour in length. \nFor additional context\, we recommend you read this lecture by Rev. Dr. Jay Alanis: “Borderland Ethics Sin Fronteras: Borderland Ethics Without Borders\, Neighbor-Love in Liminal Spaces”

SUMMARY:Commemoration of the Emanuel Nine
DESCRIPTION:As part of the 2019 ELCA Churchwide Assembly\, voting members adopted a resolution designating June 17 as a commemoration of the martyrdom of the Emanuel 9—the nine people shot and killed on June 17\, 2015\, during a Bible study at Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston\, S.C. \nThe resources referenced below are provided to help congregations mark this day. Many of these materials were recently produced for this first year of marking the commemoration; among the others are helpful ELCA websites and documents as well as resources from our ecumenical partners. \nIn this time of pandemic\, many of the resources will need to be adapted for virtual worship\, online conversation\, or individual reflection and devotion. You are invited to use them in whatever ways are most helpful for your local context. \nOur relationship to the shooter\, as well as two of the slain\, reminds us of both our complicity and our calling. Together we confess that we are in bondage to the sins of racism and white supremacy and\, at the same time\, we rejoice in the freedom that is ours in Christ Jesus who “has broken down the dividing wall\, that is\, the hostility between us” (Ephesians 2:14). May God continue to guide us as we seek repentance and renewal\, and racial justice and reconciliation among God’s precious children. \nAn online ELCA Prayer Service for the Commemoration of the Emanuel Nine\, including Bishop Eaton and leaders from around the church\, is being prepared for viewing beginning on June 17\, 2020\, the fifth anniversary of the martyrdom of the Emanuel Nine. \nResources for the Commemoration of the Emanuel Nine can be found at ELCA.org/EmanuelNine. \nThe video prayer service will be available for viewing at any time\, aiming for release by mid-day on June 17\, possibly with a timed “premiere” in conjunction with the CWO worship time\, 11:15 a.m. CDT.

And if you have any items to donate for an online silent auction\, please contact Brandon Parsons (brandonparsons@mac.com) or Pastor Jim Rowe (pastor@lcmdenton.org). \nThe date of the Trivia challenge will be Saturday\, October 24\, at 7:00 pm.

SUMMARY:ELCA Extravaganza 2021
DESCRIPTION:The Extravaganza is the annual gathering of children\, youth\, and family ministry leaders from across the ELCA. It is so much more than a conference: it’s space to be stretched\, it’s worship\, it’s inspiring speakers\, it’s learning from colleagues across the country\, it’s sharing your insights with others\, it’s informative and transformative. The Extravaganza is renewing\, educational\, and connects you with others…then sends you home strengthened for the ministry to which you have been called. \nThe Extravaganza is for the professional and the volunteer. It is for the old and the young. It is for the urban\, the suburban\, and the rural. It is for pastors\, it is for lay people. It is for all adult leaders who share in the adventure we call children\, youth\, and family ministry! \nLocation: Online \n\nFor 2021: \nThe scriptures are full of stories of God’s people holding loosely to their plans and learning to trust in the grace and the mission of God. \nAnd so\, as God’s people\, we are reminded that grace is a gift of God\, and trust follows grace. God calls on God’s people to trust in God’s abundance\, love and promise. Too often\, we try and maintain our own sense of control. But if ministry in 2020 has taught us anything\, it has taught us that we are not in control. The world is a broken\, turbulent place and we cannot navigate these troubled waters by ourselves. \nAnd so\, obediently\, we trust in the work of the Holy Spirit in the midst of turbulent times. And we partner with God\, serving as God’s hands doing God’s work in a world that is in need of hope. \nWe hold loosely\, letting go of our need to control\, creating space for the Spirit to work\, and trusting in God\, who has a vision for the world. \nExtravaganza 2021 will explore God’s call to hold loosely to our own plans\, and our need to control\, and to trust in the one who comes to create\, to redeem and to sustain. God’s call for us to “Hold Loosely” and trust is more important now than ever\, as we live and do ministry in a time of pandemic\, of racial injustice and unrest\, of social division and political turmoil. \nOur conversations at #ext21 will center around five questions: \n\n\nHow do we help those we work with navigate the grief of losing “normal?” How do we navigate that same grief for ourselves?\nHow do we care for ourselves in the midst of accompanying others in their pain?\nHow do we navigate change?\nWhat should we do next?\nHow do we find hope in the midst of chaos?\n\n\nIt is in the words of Ephesians 2:8 that we are reminded that we place our trust in God’s grace\, which provides guidance and direction during these hard days. And that this grace is a gift that we discover when we hold loosely. \n“For by grace you have been saved through faith\, and this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God.” – Ephesians 2:8

SUMMARY:2021 John Hope Franklin Reconciliation in America National Symposium
DESCRIPTION:The Future of Tulsa’s Past: The Centennial of the Tulsa Race Massacre and Beyond \nThe Arkansas-Oklahoma Synod invites all our siblings from across the ELCA to join us digitally for the 2021 John Hope Franklin Reconciliation in America National Symposium\, May 26-29.  Following the Symposium\, on the afternoon of May 29th\, everyone is invited to join us for a Zoom conversation where we will continue addressing the themes of Symposium and talk specifically about how those themes speak to us as a church.  Attending the Symposium is not necessary to be a part of the post-symposium gathering. \nThe National Symposium is an annual event sponsored by the John Hope Franklin Center for Reconciliation in Tulsa\, OK and brings together local and nationally known speakers and people from around the country to learn about and discuss ways to work against racism and for racial reconciliation.  Founded in 2007\, the vision of the John Hope Franklin Center for Reconciliation in Tulsa is to transform the bitterness and mistrust caused by years of racial division and violence into a hopeful future of reconciliation and cooperation for Tulsa and the nation.  In the spirit of John Hope Franklin (1915-2009)\, American historian and educator noted for his scholarly reappraisal of the American Civil War era and the importance of the black struggle in shaping modern American identity\, the Center promotes reconciliation and generating trust through scholarly work and constructive community engagement. \nIndividuals must register for the Symposium through the JHF Center website: https://www.jhfnationalsymposium.org. A schedule and list of speakers for the Symposium is also available on the website. \nFrom 1:00-3:30 PM CDT on Saturday\, May 29\, ELCA participants in the Symposium and others are invited to join the Arkansas-Oklahoma Synod for a time of reflection and conversation.  Led by a panel including  Arkansas-Oklahoma Synod Bishop Michael Girlinghouse\, Ms. Vanessa Adams-Harris\, John Hope Franklin Center for Reconciliation\, Mr. Bill Horne\, ELCA Vice-president\,  and Ms. Judith Roberts\, ELCA Sr. Director for Diversity\, Equity & Inclusion we will discuss the complicity and silence of the white church in the perpetuation of racial injustice\, including violent events like the Tulsa Race Massacre\, how the church is working against racial injustice today\, and ways we can show up and step up to work for change in our church\, our local communities and nation in the days ahead.  ELCA Presiding Bishop Elizabeth Eaton will share concluding thoughts and reflections about how we can move together as a church to address these issues. \nIf you would like to join us for the post-symposium conversation\, you will need to register at: https://www.aokelca.org/event-details/2021-john-hope-franklin-annual-symposium to receive the Zoom link and password for the ELCA event. \nIf you have questions please call the A-OK synod office at (918) 492-4288
