In the greatest display of love the world has ever seen, God humbled himself not only to become one of us in the mystery of the incarnation, but even to suffer our own death in order to destroy the power of sin, death, and the devil. What a broken and beautiful image to think about! One of the things that we hear about each year on Ash Wednesday is about the practice of Lent—a discipline of prayer, fasting, and alms giving. Prayer is a natural part of the Christian life, an open-ended and ongoing conversation with God our Father. Every time I think about the discipline of prayer, I remember the words of Pope Francis who spoke about the fact that God never tires of hearing our voices lifted up in prayer to him, but that we are the ones who grow weary of approaching the throne of grace to give thanks, to ask for forgiveness, support, and guidance, and to be present with those in need. Don’t give up on praying, because God doesn’t give up or tire of hearing your voice. Fasting is always the hot topic when Lent rolls around. Many folks give up things like chocolate or soft drinks. While those things might be helpful to you on your own personal journey of health and wellness, but it misses the mark of what the church is trying to instill in us for our own growth as people who follow Jesus. Fasting is meant to remove something so that we can be filled in our relationships with God and our neighbors. So go ahead, and give up that chocolate, but maybe consider doing something charitable with the money you would have spent on chocolate. Or maybe you’re fasting from an activity—try replacing the time you normally spend on that activity with time spent in study of scripture or in prayer. Fasting is meant to draw us nearer to God, not just to make us angry about not having chocolate or having headaches from caffeine withdrawal. Alms giving is the one that usually gets the least attention. Alms giving is nothing more than charitable giving to those in need. Sure, people do this all the time through different organizations and there’s a whole host of places that you can give that are good, proper, and holy. What I’d like for us to consider this year on our Lenten pilgrimage together is whether we feel God calling us to invest—either for the first time or to deepen our level of investment—in the ministry that God has called all of us to here at St. David. Through your gifts given to the church, the reach of our ministry literally stretches across the globe—all starting right here in our corner of West Columbia. Our gifts not only fund local ministry, but work to support the mission of the church here in SC, the United States, and globally through programs like Lutheran World Relief, Young Adults in Global Missions, and by supporting our military chaplains with resources that help to nourish the souls of our servicemembers at home and abroad. Your gifts matter, and they reach farther than you might imagine. (Continued on next page.) (Continued from previous page.) One of the things we’re working on as a church is making giving accessible. One of the ways we’re doing that is by partnering with a new vendor, PushPay. Using their system, we’ll be able to not only accept gifts to support the ministry through bank draft, but also by debit card. We don’t want anyone going into debt to give to the church, so we aren’t accepting credit card transactions. You can access this new system either by signing up on the website, or by texting SDLC GIVE to 77977 on your mobile phone. This system is much more user friendly than Vanco, and if you’ve been using Vanco, you’ll be receiving a letter about switching to the new system. Additionally, PushPay will be developing a mobile app for tablets and smart phones that will increase the church’s ability to communicate with folks between Sundays about the important ministry that we’ve been called to through the gospel. I pray that your Lenten pilgrimage this year is blessed, and that by walking with Jesus to his cross, we might find a renewed passion for loving and serving God and our neighbor through the disciplines of prayer, fasting, and alms giving. May peace be our journey, Pastor Greg+ YOUTH March is another busy month for our youth! It is also a very service-oriented month. Our first event will be a yard clean-up for 2 of our shut-in members here at St. David. The next weekend our youth will be doing a prayer walk-a-thon around the Church Cemetery to raise funds for the National Youth Gathering in 2021. The walk will consist of prayer through the stages of the cross and then will have various topics for the youth to pray about as they do more laps. For every lap they will have pledges from other people to donate money toward their cause. The last youth group event is the SCLCY “Spring into Action” which will be held in Greenville this year to help clean up a camp that is in need. Our LYLS will have another ELF event this month at St. Stephen’s Lutheran Church on March 29. If you would like to volunteer to help with any of these events, please contact Joel at [email protected]. MARCH 1 Shut-ins’ Service Day - Yard Clean-Up 8 Youth Prayer Walk- Fund Raiser (National Gathering) 20-22 Spring Into Action 29 LYLS- E.L.F. Event WORSHIP NOTES O Lord, throughout these forty days you prayed and kept the fast; inspire repentance for our sin, and free us from our past. Claudia Hernaman d.1898 ELW 319 When Jesus, who had no sin, came to John for baptism, it was not for repentance. At the beginning of his ministry, Jesus shows himself ready to do God’s will. After his baptism, he begins his ministry by going into the desert for prayer and meditation. So, what are you giving up for Lent? This was the greeting I used to hear years ago as others saw ashes on my forehead. This understanding of Lent has been replaced with a more positive take. What are you DOING for Lent? Both ideas express a change in the routine of our lives, whether we give up chocolate or read the Bible daily, we begin to think about the why. The world is much with us, though, and it isn’t easy to keep our minds fixed above: Though parched and hungry, yet you prayed and fixed your mind above; So teach us to deny ourselves that we my know God’s love. In Lenten meditation, we are encouraged to withdraw mentally and to go into a deeper part of ourselves. Time spent in meditation does have a lasting effect. The preparation we do during Lent and Holy Week gives us more depth to our Easter celebration. So travel with Jesus during this forty day pilgrimage. Reorder your days and your thoughts. Be with us through this season, Lord, and all our earthly days, That when the final Easter dawns, we join in heaven’s praise. AL THANK YOU THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT of the Souper Bowl of Caring initiative! Together we were able to raise $344.40 for the cause. Also, with thanks to you, we were able to donate 297 lbs. of food and needed items to Mission Lexington. Your selfless gifts will help feed and care for those who need it most.

The necessary demolition work is now complete, and construction began in mid-January. “The new Center will be a huge asset to Laurens County,” said Jonathan Coleman, deputy director at the Laurens County Development Corporation. “Not only will it be a great recruiting tool to make Laurens County a more attractive area to prospective industries, but it will also be utilized by our existing industries to enhance their workers’ knowledge of technology,” he said. The rapid progress is due in large part to the collaborative efforts and overwhelming support from the county, from ZF Group, and from the business and industrial communities. The facility was initially planned to provide readySC, a division of the South Carolina Technical College System, with a dedicated space to meet ZF Group’s training needs in collaboration with PTC industrial faculty, but industry leaders throughout the county see the Center’s potential to benefit their operations. “With the potential increase in industrial prospects taking a look at the community going forward, this facility will be invaluable.

    Fünf mobile Generationen treffen ihre Idole: Britische Kultband „The Who“ rockt das Internationale VW-Bus-Treffen ● Tausende von Bulli-Fans vom 5.-7. Oktober auf dem Messegelände Hannover erwartet ● Sänger Sasha („Lucky day“) und „Blondes Gift“-Moderatorin Barbara Schöneberger dabei Hannover, 31. August 2007. Eine der erfolgreichsten Rockbands der Musikgeschichte wird während des Internationalen VW-Bus-Treffens vom 5.-7. Oktober 2007 auf dem Messegelände in Hannover auftreten. Der Spirit der wilden 60er und 70er Jahre wird zwischen Bullis aller Baureihen wieder aufleben, wenn Pete Townshend den Verstärker aufdreht und alles aus seiner Gitarre rausholt, und Roger Daltrey das Mikro über dem Kopf kreisen lässt. Fünf mobile Generationen treffen ihre Idole, wenn „The Who“ am Sonnabend, dem 6. Oktober, aus Anlass von „60 Jahre Bulli“ auf der Bühne stehen werden. „Wenn Legenden auf Legenden treffen, dann ist das die angemessene Dimension für das Bulli-Meeting. The Who passt wie maßgeschneidert zum Bulli, die Band ist mit ihrer Musik auch heutzutage die Idealbesetzung, und die Beziehung hat einen echten Hintergrund, der in einigen Songs auch zum Ausdruck kommt. Wir sind begeistert, dass wir gemeinsam mit dieser super Rock-Gruppe auftreten können“, sagt Harald Schomburg, Mitglied des Markenvorstandes von Volkswagen Nutzfahrzeuge. Volkswagen Nutzfahrzeuge ist eine Kooperation mit „The Who“ eingegangen und plant auch weitere gemeinsame Aktionen mit der Band. „Wir freuen uns, auf einem so kultigen Event dabei zu sein, das so gut zu uns passt, und wir werden Hannover rocken“, sagt Pete Townshend, kreativer Kopf der Who. „Ich selber besitze einen VW Bus zusammen mit meiner Lebensgefährtin Rachel Fuller, und in der Anfangszeit unserer Band sind wir auch in Bullis gefahren – es war das Coolste, was man machen konnte“, erinnert sich der Künstler.

  • Tommy Who! a Tribute to the Who
    Neues aus dem Deutschen Theater Das Deutsche Theater München präsentiert Tommy Who! A Tribute to The Who Mit allen Songs der legendären Rockoper Tommy Zusatztermin 27. November 2020 um 19:30 Uhr A TRIBUTE TO THE WHO Im vergangenen Jahr formierte sich mit TOMMY WHO! eine neue Münchner Band, die am 1. Okto- ber erstmals die Songs der bekannten Rockoper Tommy von The Who live auf die Bühne brachte. Nachdem das Konzert mit den derzeit erlaubten 200 Besucherinnen und Besuchern aus- verkauft war, gibt es nun eine Zusatzshow. Neben den Songs aus Tommy präsentiert die Band dabei auch wieder weitere Hits der britischen Kult-Band. EIN STÜCK MUSIKGESCHICHTE Mit ihrem Auftritt beim legendären Woodstock-Festival schrieben The Who 1969 an einem bedeutenden Stück Musikgeschichte mit. Einige Wochen vor diesem Auftritt lieferten sie mit der Veröffentlichung des Konzept-Albums Tommy aber bereits ein ganz eigenes Kapitel der großen Rock-Historie ab – und gleichzeitig eine der ersten und bedeutendsten Rock-Opern überhaupt. Zum 20-jährigen Jubiläum des Albums absolvierten The Who 1989 eine spektakuläre Tournee, auf der die Band unter anderem von Schlagzeuger Simon Philipps und John Bundrick an den Tasten unterstützt wurde. Legendär ist ein Abend im Laufe dieser Tournee, an dem sich dann auch noch illustre Gäste wie Elton John, Phil Collins, Steve Winwood, Patti LaBelle und Billy Idol auf der Bühne dazu gesellten. TOMMY WHO! Inspiriert von diesem großartigen Konzert und anlässlich des 50-jährigen Jubiläums des Albums Tommy hat sich 2019 die Münchner Tribute-Band TOMMY WHO! formiert, welche das Konzert von 1989 nahezu eins zu eins auf die Bühne bringen wird.

  • The Who, Globen Stockholm
    DN Sida 1 av 2 En utskrift från Dagens Nyheters nätupplaga, DN.se. Publicerad 7 jul 2007 12:09 Roger Daltrey and Pete Townshend under fredagens Foto: Anders Wiklund/Scanpix spelning på Globen i Stockholm. The Who, Globen Stockholm Musikrecension MUSIK Artist: The Who Plats: Globen, Stockholm DET GÖR INTE SÅ MYCKET att Roger Daltrey till en början nästan trasslar in sig när han ska svinga mikrofonsladden som en lasso. Pete Townshend vevar på som en väderkvarn med gitarrarmen och riffen sitter där de ska när The Who brakar loss med klassiska konsertöppnaren "Can't explain". Bandet går ut med en emfas och energi som skulle få många yngre kolleger att storkna. Ljussättningen och bildprojektionerna med röd ridå i fonden känns lagom sofistikerat, och nostalgi möter nutid när nya "Fragments" avlöser "Anyway, anyhow, anywhere", inramad av filmsekvenser ur det förflutna. Alltsammans fungerar med oklanderlig närvarokänsla så länge pretentionerna läggs åt sidan till förmån för det explosiva. Townshend liknar det långtifrån fullsatta Globen vid ett rymdskepp och det forna brittiska popfenomenet lyckas nästan få det att sväva i väg. Men bara nästan. THE WHO HAR inte lyckats rekrytera en ny publik i samma utsträckning som Rolling Stones och är dessutom skadeskjutet med bara halva laguppställningen vid liv (trummisen Keith Moon klev av rocklivståget redan 1978 och basisten John Entwistle 2002). Livesättningen har utökats med Zak Starkey - Ringo Starrs son, som gör ett fantastiskt jobb bakom dubbla baskaggar - kompgitarristen Simon Townshend, basisten Pino Palladino och keyboardisten John Bundrick. Sedan avskedsturnén 1982 har The Who återförenats så många gånger att det inte är lönt att tala om comeback.

  • 1 Virtual Poster Session November 7, 2020
    American College of Physicians- Minnesota Chapter Annual Abstract Competition Virtual Poster Session November 7, 2020 Abstracts Submitted for Competition Medical Students Quality Improvement - Medical Students Austin Pickup Reducing Readmission by Improving Post-Discharge Follow Up Dr. Smarika Sapkota Introduction: A multi-step quality improvement project was conducted to Emily Stupca evaluate a cohort of patients who were discharged to home from the Baila Elkin University of Minnesota Medical Center (UMMC) unit 5A and 5B and were readmitted within 30 days to identify gaps in care leading to readmission and formulate an intervention. The overall purpose was to reduce the readmission rate for patients with a discharge diagnosis of severe sepsis. Methods: Patients who were discharged from unit 5A/5B and readmitted within 30 days from January 2018 to February 2019 were identified. Information on index admission was ascertained from the electronic medical record. Information was gathered on primary care provider (PCP) follow up recommendation, appointment scheduling, and appointment attendance. Our intervention included incorporating questions about PCP follow-up in the post-discharge call and connecting with primary care to ensure PCP follow- up. Plan, do, study, and act (PDSA) improvement method was used for this quality improvement project and post-intervention data on readmission and post-discharge PCP follow-up were calculated. Results: 30-day readmission rate from January 2018 to February 2019 for 5A/5B unit discharges was 23.0% for patients who were discharged to home. Multiple causes for readmission were found based on chart review. The discharge diagnoses of severe sepsis had the highest rate of readmission when compared to other discharge diagnoses, with 24.8% of patients readmitted within 30 days.
