The Real Joy of Christmas
This December will mark my
60th Christmas. As I reflect on
all of those holidays from the
time I was a child, through
young adulthood, and now as a
parent, I can picture in my mind so many of
those Christmases past. Some I recall only
because of the pictures, like my first Christmas
with the picture of me standing with a grin and
the Christmas tree fallen over behind me.
I remember getting brand new “Church Clothes”
for Christmas, then wearing them to the 10:00
p.m. service on Christmas Eve. One particular
year (I was maybe 8 years old) I remember
getting new shoes and a suit jacket. There was
snow on the ground and it was very slippery,
especially with my leather soled shoes, and the
jacket was totally inadequate for the crisp cold
night. But walking into church I remember
feeling the warmth from the boiler, and also the
many people gathered for worship.
And those are the things I remember about
Christmases over the years. I don’t really
remember what the shoes or jacket looked like,
nor whether I liked them or not (I probably
didn’t being in 3rd grade or so,) because the
people and the relationships, the joy and the
anticipation, the experiences of Christmas as a
child are what stay with me. Putting up and
decorating the Christmas tree, Christmas
caroling, hot chocolate, food, music, food, happy
faces, food, spending time with those I loved
eating food, Lefse, Krumkake, Rosettes, Fruit
cake, Fattigman, Rommegrot, and of course
Kringla.
As far as presents are concerned, they are not
what is truly important about Christmas. The
true gift of Christmas is the presence of God
among us. And this year I believe we have an
opportunity to make our Christmas celebration a
spiritual celebration of Christ breaking into our
world with the message of peace and hope that
his life embodied.
Oh, of course there will be presents, and of
course there will be food (at least there better be
) but all of the changes and challenges that the
COVID-19 Pandemic has presented us give us an
opportunity to reflect on what Christ really
means for us. In our world full of worries, Jesus
life assures us that we are loved. In our world
full of alienation and loneliness, Jesus Christ
reminds us that we are not alone. In our world
where we feel vulnerable to many dangers, the
Christ Child in the manger gives us confidence
in our future in the hands of God.
Though we will not be able to be together in our
traditional Christmas gatherings, we can still be
together in spirit and in the knowledge of God’s
love for us. Probably my favorite Christmas
cartoon is “A Charlie Brown Christmas.” I
encourage you to watch it together as a family
this season. It is a good reminder of what the real
joy of Christmas really is.

Merry Christmas from LSI
“The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness
has not overcome it.” — John 1:5
As Christmas approaches, we give thanks to you!
This year has been challenging for all of us, and we
are grateful for the Iowans who have stepped up
just for the sake of giving and helping LSI in 2020.
Thank you for bringing the light of Christ to your
neighbors who rely on these important services!
At LSI, we know many people experiencing deep
darkness. We know parents who feel hopeless,
with little resources to raise their young children.
We know adults with disabilities who feel
voiceless, with no support system or connection to
their community. We know teens who are aging
out of foster care, who fear they will never have a
forever family to love them.
The holidays can be an especially difficult time for
our neighbors who are so often overlooked in our
society. In the spirit of giving, the spirit of love,
and the spirit of working together, let us stand
with them and lift them up this Christmas season.
If you would like to learn more about how you can
support Iowa children and families, contact Deb
Whitford, LSI’s director of philanthropy and
church relations, at 563.676.2065 or
Deborah.Whitford@LSIowa.org. LSI is also
available to provide a customized virtual shared
ministry opportunity for your congregation. If you
would like to share the message of LSI with your
community, please contact our Waverly office at
319.352.2630 to get started.
Wishing you a blessed and merry Christmas from
LSI!
Our Mission: Lutheran Services in Iowa responds to the
love of Jesus Christ through compassionate service. LSI
is an affiliated social ministry partner of the Iowa
congregations of the ELCA (Evangelical Lutheran
Church in America) and a member of LSA (Lutheran
Services in America). We proudly serve people of all
ages, abilities, religions, sexes, gender identities,
national origins, ethnicities, races, and sexual
orientations. Learn more at www.LSIowa.org and
www.facebook.com/LSI.iowa.
Continuum of Care
As she prepared to celebrate her 18th birthday, Sam
was also preparing to age out of foster care. She
had lived with her foster mom, Marty, for years
and Marty wanted to ensure Sam had a smooth
transition into adulthood. That’s when they signed
up for LSI’s Host Homes program.
Provided through LSI’s Services for People with
Disabilities, Host Homes provides personalized
care for Iowans with disabilities who find greater
success living in a private family home instead of a
busier community living environment with
roommates. Individuals are carefully matched with
a Host Homes mentor and live with them in their
home, where they can build strong relationships
and become better engaged with their
communities.
Marty became a Host Homes mentor so Sam could
continue living in her home and receive the same
care and support she was used to. Sam is thriving
and Marty gets to continue walking alongside her
as she builds a bright future full of independence.
They work on Sam’s goals every day, including
cooking and planning meals. Marty especially
loves fishing and going on picnics with Sam and as
a Host Homes mentor, she can continue serving as
a foster parent to other Iowa teens.

comradery.
Matthew 9:35-36 says, “Then Jesus went about all the cities and villages,
teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and
healing every sickness and every disease among the people. But when He
saw the multitudes, He was moved with compassion for them, because they
were weary and scattered, like
 11 St. Petri Messenger

sheep having no shepherd.” Isn’t that humanity right now? Weary and scattered? I’m not
just talking about the recent election. Even my thoughts in this newsletter feel scattered.

Yesterday’s gospel reading was the Parable of the 10 Bridesmaids, At our international
service, Pastor Adachi shared the following perspective. In Japanese, there is a kanji
combination 油断, read “yudan.” The first Kanji means “oil” and the second kanji means “to
cut.” So, cut-oil. But oil, as you know, cannot be divided, just as our relationship with Jesus is
not breakable. The interesting ‘punchline,’ if you well, is that the word “yudan” doesn’t mean
“cut oil.” It means half-hearted, or negligent, or inattentive. It is so hard to be attentive when
we are weary and scattered!

God’s love has accounted for that, fortunately, in the Holy Spirit. We find our mutual mission
destination in our call to love one another, even those who we disagree with or who are
difficult to love. Joining together as One Body requires that we put aside ourselves and focus
only on God in the spirit of worship. In a very meek and humble attempt to bring you to our
morning chapel service, I uploaded one of the services from our college. It features a couple
of our hand bell players, playing “On Eagle’s Wings.” I was reminded of this service when
the President Elect Joe Biden referenced it in his speech a couple of days ago. The link and
