TWO • Hcppner GazHte-TImes. Hcppner. Oregon Wednesday. June 24.WT7 Intern pastor impressed by Church’s sense of community . The Rev Brad M cGuire »as ai the lone United Church o f Christ last week. and. after some time at the Condon Church of Christ, w ill return to lone July 26 August 20 ? — a summer intern at the Church. from Pas ific School o f Religion, he helped w ith the C hurch's Vacation Bible Sshool last week and w ill help w ith V k h H od Con don and conduct worship services and pms k J c pastoral care w hile the regular minister is on vacation The internship has a different tw ist this summer since the lone Church is being served b> an Interim pastor, the Res Matthew Nelson, who came to ihe area after the Res Cathy Barker left to accept a call at C adillac. M ichigan He is waiting for a permanent church and the lone church is looking fo r a permanent minister Nelson earned his Masters o f D ivin ity at Pacific Shool o f Religion, and a Bachelor o f Arts in s«Kial work at Iowa Stale Uniscrsi ty at Ames. Iowa lone is his first church except for an internship serv ed at Sunol, C alifornia M cGuire has another year and a half al Pacific School o f Religion before he w ill he eligible for call He is not sure yet lhat parish m inistry is vchat he w ill he doing He has a Bachelor o f Science degree from W hrtforth College in Spokane in both I atm American and Political studies He spent five months travel ing in Central America follow ing his graduation, and says that he has con sidered returning for a couple o f years to write a book about refugees. "T h a t's only in the dream stage, th o u g h ." he is quick to add Although you get an incredible perspective on home when you go away, the more I learn, the more it seems that i f the church is to do anything abroad, we need to stay home and do ihe work here The church is traditionally involved with justice concerns It's even more im portanl with the current economic in ju s tic e . the farm c risis, plant A n U n lik le y P a ir Technology and gemstones sounds like an unlikely p a ir ing, but technology has touched the jew elry business in ways th at affe ct you. A com pany in Japan has found a way to m ake synthetic diam onds for the electronics industry in a cost effective way. Any kind of synthetic gem duplicates the natural gem in optical and physical properties. In fact, the one im por ta n t d ifferen ce is that a synthetic gem is created in a laboratory rather than in the earth What does that have to do with gemstones and jewelry? The fact is. other synthetic gem s are also available and have been for some tim e. There are synthetic rubies, syn th e tic em eralds, synthetic sapphires. These are not fake or sim ulants or substitutes. These are just like the natural gems, except they are cultivated in a laboratory. W h m you buy a gem, buy from a jew eler you can trust to provide you a natural gem if you want one and are paying the price a natural gem brings. If you are willing to buy a synthetic gem. a reputable jew eler will work with you at prices appropriate to synthetics. If you need an appraisal, you need a jew ele r who knows the difference Unless you know gemology, be sure you know your jeweler y/SA Jewelers Peterson’s 6 /4 -fîO O closures, and the increasing number or people falling below the poverty line, that the Church responds to these realities, he said He was drawn to apply for the in temship at lone and Condon, he said, because the churches have gained a powerful reputation as lo v ing and teaching churches for peo pie in the m inistry That’ s a rarity because many churches w ill assign an intern to one area, such as youth ministry The character o f these con gregations is important because the churches can run on their own. but members are open to our ideas, mistakes, and experiences And. he kept meeting people from Condon and lone in unlikely places He talked w ith the interns from the last three years and each assured him he would love the experience After three days here. I'm in awe. not just ihe smallness o f the town, but three days w ith the kids has been a w onderful experience And the cows- - I stop and talk to them on the roads When you get to know them, they have some real theological in sighl. he said Nelson said that the time he has spent here has changed his point o f view somewhat A native o f A r- vatonna. Minnesota, he has a new perspective on what a small town is Before, he would not have con sidered a rural m inistry for any length o f time, but he now knows he can surv ive "a t least an h o u r" away from ihe city. " I have found the sense o f community so strong here It's e xcitin g,” he said, “ even with the farm crisis and small towns get ting smaller, lone grabs the bull by ihe boms and runs in the opposite direction People keep dreaming and m oving on il They obviously love their community and w jitl to make sure it stays h e re ." 2 1 , i » 1 I SOLAR - 808 All Season Steel Belted Radiais • A ll « • V * in ... t* t»av '.
