September, 2013 September, 2013 THE COMMUNICATOR St. Anthony Park Lutheran Church St. Paul, Minnesota A community of believers joyfully serving God, one another and the world Dear Friends in Christ, Inside this issue: In August it was a privilege for me to travel with our 8th graders to the Apostle Islands, guided by the staff of Camp Amnicon. Please imagine you’re also on Choir School 2 that trip. Listening 3 Picture yourself on the shores of Lake Superior, settling in to your seat on the huge Montreal canoe. You are leaving Red Cliff, on the mainland, for the first Rally Day 4 night’s visit to Stockton Island. Stockton is the second largest of the Apostle Islands. It’s a long pull, over three hours of paddling. Crop Walk 5 You are aware of both exhilaration and nervous energy. Nerves cause you to Tutors Wanted 5 ask yourself questions. Can I keep paddling for that long? Will the weather Choirs 6 hold? Exhilaration helps you focus on the beauty of the surroundings, the syn- ergy of paddling in rhythm with the group. You’re a part of something bigger School Kits 7 than yourself. You’re on an adventure. You join in singing songs that express joy and keep the group in sync. Women’s Retreat 7 Now use that scene from your mind’s eye as a metaphor for the congregation. Amnicon Photos 8 We are embarking. A new journey has begun.

The St. Anthony Park Lutheran Choir School strives to blend music education and Christian faith formation for children from birth through sixth grade. Through music classes and choir rehearsals designed for each age group and developmental stage, we empower children to participate in worship, serve as worship leaders, and sing God’s praise throughout their lives. Our choir school is a unique and powerful ministry. Seeing trained musicians marvel at our program gave me a new appreciation of what is happening in our midst. This summer I taught the Children’s Choir Technique and Repertoire class offered through Luther Seminary. Molly Breen, our Baby Music and Ho- sanna Singers teacher, graciously arranged to teach a demonstration class of babies and toddlers with their caregivers as part of the Technique and Repertoire class. The seminary students were nothing less than amazed to witness Molly’s work with these young children and their caregivers! The children’s en- gaged participation and obvious learning is a testament to Molly’s teaching and the importance of our music ministry with very young children. Musical skills are acquired just as language skills at this age. By being immersed in an environment full of singing and dancing, young children imitate and internalize music as a language. At choir school this musical language is also the language of the Christian faith. It is the voice of the Church that is heard in singing together. It is not you that sings, it is the Church that is singing, and you, as a member of the Church, may share in its song. –Dietrich Bonhofer As our children grow older we empower them to join the song of all Christianity by teaching them to sing beautifully, read musical notation, and navigate the hymnal. With these tools our children can partici- pate actively in worship and serve as worship leaders. They internalize texts from the Bible and state- ments of our Christian faith by singing music from our Lutheran tradition and music from Christian tradi- tions around the globe. We cannot predict when a child will connect with God through the Church’s song. All we can do is prepare the ground and allow the Holy Spirit to work. Once a child has connected with God in worship, no one can take that away from him or her. The music of our faith can express more than words alone can ever say. When we understand God’s gift of music as a dynamic means of transforming people’s lives, then our music ministry is informed by the responsibility this understanding creates. Just as we provide food and shelter for our children, we must also feed and shelter the children’s souls and spirits. The St. Anthony Park Lutheran Choir School opens the door to the music of our faith for all the children in our midst. The children, families, choir directors/teachers, and our whole church staff are a blessing to our choir school. Together we learn of God’s love through song. Please consider inviting or bringing a child you know to choir school. Molly, Sara, and I are so excited for the musical journey of faith we will take with the choir school children this year! Page 3 September, 2013 Dear Friends in Christ continued from page 1 activities as long as necessary, with the goal of turning it over to the interim pastor when the time comes. Along with our executive committee, I am in touch with our Synod office, and the process of finding well suited candidates for our needs is under way. Synod staff members are now in conversations with possi- ble candidates. After those conversations we will receive the names and profiles of those candidates who express interest. From there it will be a straightforward hiring process, to be handled by the executive committee. Please keep in mind these will be candidates for an interim ministry or a term call. There is a more thor- ough process of extending a permanent call which will happen after a significant period of time for heal- ing, adjustment, and goal setting. The early phases of our capital campaign will allow us time for signifi- cant conversation about our future, and this is too valuable to hurry through. An interim position fills the need for leadership in the near term. ROOF The pitched roof area is nearly finished. Most of the shingles have already been replaced. There are a few small areas that have been left unfinished until work begins on the flat roof surfaces. This is so the seams between flat and pitched roofing can be tied together in a coordinated way so we have a complete seal. The unfinished areas do have weather protection for now. Work on the flat surfaces will begin after the State Fair has finished. SOUND SYSTEM Our sound contractor is coordinating with us as to timing the start of that project. Some of the rough wiring will be accomplished, once the flat-roof has been torn off, allowing better access for running wires. Once that is accomplished the sound system workers prefer to wait until the dust settles from the roofing job. (Yes, literally.) Many of the new sound components have internal cooling fans which draw air into the unit. There is no sense drawing in dirty dusty air inside brand new components, so this work is best accomplished after the roofers are finished. The work will continue speedily once the roof is ready. SO dear friends, get situated; and join in the paddling. The Montreal canoe is great for teaching us that we need everyone. I am confident that this phase of our life together will remind us that Christ is always at the center of what we do and who we are. Thanks be to God that we don’t need to worry about the end of the journey. While we are on it, we need each other, we use everyone’s gifts, and we move to- gether as the body of Christ. I continue to count it a privilege to serve as your pastor, and I give thanks for your prayers and your par- ticipation. God’s Peace to you Pastor Glenn Page 4 THE COMMUNICATOR St. Anthony Park Lutheran Church Capital Campaign Begins with Listening The leaky roof is fixed, the sound system is coming, and we are in the midst of staff changes. What now? The Long Range Planning Team invites you to share in the work in shaping the vision of our future minis- try and the capital campaign necessary to help us move into that with our new roof and sound system.

  • HFS Annualreport 2010.Pdf
    FROM OUR EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR DESIREÉ PEPPER-VENZANT Dear HFS Supporters, Friends, and Family: In April, I spoke of a little hummingbird who took on what seemed to be an impossible task. But the little bird never gave up, because he was doing what he could to make a difference. This is what we are doing at HFS Chicago Schol- ars, making a difference by doing what we can for scholars and families. HFS is pursuing a new journey this year; one filled with excitement as we continue to develop new leaders. HFS provides high school scholars with not only financial assistance, but one-on-one mentoring with successful profes- sionals. HFS has over 100 volunteers that assist our scholars through mentoring and support. We are committed to aca- demic excellence. We provide educational enrichment group activities and college admission support. We have dedi- cated and qualified academic directors that meet monthly with scholars tracking their success. Our mission is to assist economically disadvantaged Chicago inner-city high school students, who show academic and leadership promise, achieve their educational goals. Our objective is clear – providing long term life skills which lead to success for our scholars. HFS is in its 17th year of in preparing scholars to take on the world. 100% of our graduates have matriculated to attend top colleges and universities, including Big Ten, Ivy League and Historically Black Col- leges. Our scholars are National Honor Society students, officers of student government, musicians in school bands, performers in school plays, and leaders in team sports. While our scholars set out to achieve the best, they realize the importance of giving back to their communities.

  • I Built My Sample of Music Albums by Taking All the Albums Listed for a US
    1 I Heard It Through the Grapevine: The Effects of Online Word of Mouth on Music Sales By Elaine Chang An honors thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Science Undergraduate College Leonard N. Stern School of Business New York University May 2007 Professor Marti G. Subrahmanyam Professor Vasant Dhar Faculty Advisor Thesis Advisor 2 Abstract: Word of mouth (WOM) has always been one of the most credible and influential sources of information for a consumer. With the advent of the Internet, new mediums of communication, such as blogs and social networking sites, have opened up, allowing more consumers to gather WOM information more easily than ever before. In this study, I examine the usefulness of online WOM, particularly from blogs and social networking sites, in predicting sales in the music industry. I track the changes in online WOM for a sample of 108 albums for four weeks before and after their release dates, and use a linear regression and regression tree to examine the relative significance of online WOM variables on their observation date in predicting album unit sales two weeks after that date. I find that the volume of blog posts about an album is the most consistently significant measure, with each additional blog post corresponding to higher album sales. In addition, I found that greater increases in an artist’s Myspace friends week over week and higher average consumer ratings also corresponded to higher sales. Although evidence supports my hypothesis that online word of mouth can be an important predictor of sales, my study also found that traditional factors are still relevant – albums released by major labels and albums with a number of reviews from mainstream sources like Rolling Stone also tended to have higher sales.

  • Nivonim Leadership Training Program
    2014 ohbucb NIVONIM LEADERSHIP TRAINING PROGRAM In so many respects, the Nivonim experience is the culmination of one’s journey as a camper through the edot (divisions) here at Machaneh Ramah. But it is also the beginning of a new journey: that of one day coming back to camp as a member of our summer tzevet (staff). To that end, a key element of the Nivonim experience is the summer-long Nivonim Leadership Training Program. All of our Nivonimers will participate in the Leadership Training Program and will be considered Madrichim B’Nivonim (counselors that are Nivonimers) -- or MiNis for short. MiNis will be placed in one of the many Netivei Manhigut (Leadership Tracks) which will be led by our amazing tzevet (staff). We will dedicate several hours, each week, for training with our nativ (track) leaders, as well as time that each nativ will spend training “in the field.” We are very pleased to offer our Nivonimers seven different Netivei Manhigut (Leadership Tracks). Nivonimers will be able to sign up for one of the following tracks: Rikud (dance), Sports, Tech, Shira (song-leading/ music), Camp Programming, Bunk Counseling, and Amitzim Bunk Counseling. Each track will be spear- headed by one member of our Nivonim staff (or another senior staff member from around camp), and each track offers exciting opportunities for the development of high-level skills and leadership experience in that particular area of specialization. Each track will offer opportunities for participants to spend time working with campers in younger edot over the course of the summer. Each track will help start our Nivonimers on the journey of transition from being a receiver of the Ramah experience to being a transmitter of that experience.

Here is her story. My grandma had been to Haus Edelweiss before, and I remember her talking about how amazing it was, and when she said she was going back, I chimed in that I wanted to go, not thinking it could actually happen (I’m a single mom to two boys). My family stepped in and said they would help watch my kids so I could take the trip with my grandma and go experience Vienna. I was so excited, but not for the opportunity to serve, for the opportunity to go to Europe. My heart had been bitter and angry, and I honestly barely had any relationship with Christ going into this trip. I left my ex- husband three years ago, bought my own home, and started my life over and never made Christ a priority in my life. I was selfish, I hated my job, my relationships kept failing when I started dating again, and I was SO unhappy. On my way to Vienna, I started praying that this would be an opportunity to connect with God again, have him open my heart to learn and serve, and WOW, did God come through. The other short-term workers I met are some of the most amazing people I’ve ever met in my life.
