Adirondack Community Church “Be the Church: Who's Invited? ”
April 3, 2016
"The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off -- for all whom the Lord our God will call."
Acts 2:39
As a young man I always wanted to be accepted. I wanted people to like me, to include me, to want me around. It's a basic human need, to be part of some-thing more than oneself, and to one degree or another, we all want to be in-cluded. It's for this reason that we have countless clubs, groups, fraternities, sororities and such organizations that gather similar people together for a cause beyond the individual. So how is the church different and who's allowed to be a part of that group? The church finds it's reason for being in the life, death and resurrection of Jesus. Our ID revolves around Christ and finds purpose in him. Simply put, the church, unlike any other group of people, believes it was called into existence by the very person of God, for the explicit purpose of offering the world good news. This "good news" that the church has to offer answers the "who" ques-tion regarding membership, since the good news is that God longs for freedom and salvation for all of humanity and that all people are invited into the fold! Join us today as we begin our newest sermon series focusing on how each and every one of us is called to Be the Church starting with today's message examin-ing who's invited.
What We Believe
...the living core of the Christian faith is revealed in scripture, illumined by tradition, vivified in personal experience, and confirmed by reason.
...the one God we worship exists fundamentally within a community of the three per-sons of Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
…God’s son, Jesus, came to live among us as fully divine and fully human. His life, death, and resurrection points to and fulfills the good news of the freedom from sin and death, which we proclaim.
...we share one mission with Christians throughout time, to make disciples of Jesus Christ.
...it is into community (koinonia) that we have been called to coexist and through this community that we are able to truly manifest the body of Christ.
…wherever you are on your journey, we are here for one another!
“In Essentials Unity, In Non-Essentials Liberty, In All Things Charity.”

Vitamin D3 the Sunshine Vitamin– The Facts and Benefits Vitamin D3, also known as the sunshine vitamin, is produced by our bodies through the action of sunlight on the skin. It’s estimat-ed that sun exposure on bare skin for 5-10 minutes, 2-3 times a week allows the body to produce sufficient Vitamin D. Unfortu-nately this vitamin has to be replenished frequently. This can be difficult especially in the winter. Recent studies suggest that up to 50% of adults and children worldwide are deficient in this vitamin. Eighty percent of all hip fractures are thought to be the result of a
deficiency also! Why is Vitamin D3 so important? It has multiple roles in our body. It regulates calcium and phosphorous absorption which help maintain healthy and strong bones and teeth. In adults a deficiency can lead to poor bone densi-ty, weakness and fractures in the spine, hips and arms etc. (not to mention bone loss in the jaw affecting the teeth.) In children a deficiency can cause rickets, characterized by a bowlegged
appearance caused by softening of the bones. Vitamin D3 supports a healthy brain, immune, and nervous system. It also helps regulate insulin
levels, support lung function and cardiovascular health. The list goes on and on. How do you know if you are deficient in Vitamin D3? If you have poor eating habits and little sun exposure you probably need more. Your doctor can check your Vitamin D levels. If you’re deficient over the counter Vitamin D3 might be ordered. A healthy diet including fish, eggs and fortified milk along with some sun exposure is usually all one needs to have enough Vitamin D. It’s important that you know if you need Vitamin D before you start taking it. People often take mega doses unnecessarily which can be harmful. Consult with
your healthcare provider. Wishing good health to you! Your parish nurses, Linda and Judy
