PASTOR’S LETTER

Many times during Lent people give up

things as a way of reminding themselves of
their commitment to God during the Lenten
season. This is a great way to help you
remember your commitment, but what I am
going to suggest, this year, is that you go one
step further. That you don’t just make this
between you and God, but that you include
others in this practice.

“What do I mean and how do you do this?”

Great question. Many people will give up
soda, sweet tea, chocolate, that morning
coffee or latte from a coffee shop, or many
other things that you may give up during
this time. You may also take on something
new such as a Bible study or journaling. If
you are giving something up, how about if
this year you take the money you would
have spent on purchasing that item and you
give that money to the church for use in the
ministry areas of the church. You might also
think about if you’re giving up spending time
doing a specific activity, you take that time
and you help do something around the
church, or help out one of our church
families. By connecting the giving up for
personal cleansing, our vertical and personal
relationship with God, you also help
someone else out, the horizontal relationship
with God’s Kingdom.

When we are able to connect our personal

relationship with God to other people, then
we aren’t just working to better ourselves,
we are working for the betterment of the
Kingdom.
May God richly bless you on this journey,

Thank You
A big thank you to all those at Fort King who kept us in your thoughts and prayers when Bill had hip replace-
ment at MRMC on Feb.22nd and also as he underwent rehab at Oakhurst. Special thanks to Andy and Tom,
who visited him at both places and offered their prayers. Bill is now at home, but will continue to have more
physical therapy at Oakhurst three times a week. He was determined to be home when our daughter and son-
in-law, Jean and John Bonham, from St. Charles, IL. were in Ocala on their usual March visit.

Sincerely, Janet and Bill Gabert

Food Allergy or Food Intolerance

Most people know someone who has a food allergy or food intolerance This month we will
focus on an overview of the differences between allergy and intolerance to food products and
the symptoms. We will continue next month with specific examples, prevention of symptoms
and treatment of some common reactions to food.

Is It a Food Allergy or Food Intolerance?

What Is a Food Allergy?

A food allergy is an immune system response. It occurs when the body mistakes an ingredient in food -- usually a
protein -- as harmful and creates a defense system (antibodies) to fight it. Food allergy symptoms develop when
the antibodies are battling the "invading" food. The most common food allergies are peanuts, tree nuts (such as
walnuts, pecans and almonds), fish, and shellfish, milk, eggs, soy products, and wheat.

What Is Food Intolerance?

Food intolerance is a digestive system response rather than an immune system response. It occurs when some-
thing in a food irritates a person's digestive system or when a person is unable to properly digest or breakdown
the food. Intolerance to lactose, which is found in milk and other dairy products, is the most common food in-
tolerance.

What Are the Symptoms of a Food Allergy?

Symptoms of a food allergy can range from mild to severe, and the amount of food necessary to trigger a reac-
tion varies from person to person. Symptoms of a food allergy may include rash or hives, nausea, stomach pain,
diarrhea, itchy skin, shortness of breath, chest pain, swelling of the airways to the lungs, anaphylaxis.

What Are the Symptoms of Food Intolerance?

Symptoms of food intolerance include: nausea, stomach pain, gas, cramps, or bloating, vomiting, heartburn,
diarrhea, headaches, irritability or nervousness.

How Common Are Food Allergies and Intolerances?

Food allergies affect about 4% of teens and adults and 5% of children. Food intolerances are much more com-
mon. In fact, nearly everyone at one time has had an unpleasant reaction to something they ate. Some people
have specific food intolerances. Lactose intolerance, the most common food intolerance, affects about 10% of
Americans.

 DISCIPLESHIP
Shalom!

Barechu et Adonai hamevorach! Praise the Lord, to whom our praise is due! On our recent
pilgrimage to the Holy Land, each of the pilgrims received a devotional to guide us on our
journey. In it was an excerpt from A Spiritual Travel Guide by Rabbi Hoffman, with a suggestion
of how to prepare ourselves for each day and to experience the different holy sites. Here is
what he suggested.

Anticipate: The night before, anticipate what you will see the next day.

Approach: As you approach the vicinity, muster the expectation of a

powerful experience.

Acknowledge: When you arrive to the place itself, acknowledge its sacred presence.
When you are in the focus of the visit, take in the power of the moment itself. Say a
prayer and blessing over the site. Spend some time alone with God, your Bible, and
journal. Take your spiritual moments seriously.

Afterthoughts: After you leave, record your thoughts and feelings as soon as you can.
Discuss your experience with other pilgrims.

This is a good practice for everyday, not just while in Israel. The very world that we live in is
holy. Take time to pause and to anticipate, approach, acknowledge and reflect on your day, the
places you were and the people you encountered. Whether we’re traveling to Israel, to
Interfaith to serve a meal, or to the Silver River for R&R, we can encounter the holy. As we
continue our Lenten journey, let us continue to be pilgrims on our way to Jerusalem and the
celebration of Easter Sunday, opening ourselves up
in anticipation of meeting Christ along the way.

Continued blessings on your journey,

 DISCIPLESHIP (continued)

Lenten Wednesdays
Biblical Models of Discipleship in the New Testament
April 6 and 13 at 5:30 – 6:45 p.m.
Come and join us on Wednesday evenings during Lent. The Mission Ministry will be providing dinner of
soup for a suggested donation of $5.00. All proceeds will go to the ASP mission trip this summer.

Our program will explore Biblical models of discipleship in the New Testament. There is no shortage of books
on Christian discipleship. While most books describe the initial objective as becoming a follower of Christ,
each book offers a unique set of methods to achieve this goal. Some offer techniques that include Bible study
and major changes to personal and corporate behavior, while other approaches appear more introspective
and contemplative. Why must there be so many different approaches? One might be tempted to say, "Just
live the way the disciples did in the New Testament," and leave it at that. But such a declaration is more
complex than one might initially believe.

When we look at how particular groups of disciples followed Jesus Christ, we discover many different meth-
ods within the sacred text. It appears that even during the earliest period of Christian history, there was not a
single means by which to follow Christ. Throughout this Lenten study we will investigate key texts of the
New Testament, revealing many methods by which disciples functioned as followers or pupils, and ask how
applicable these methods might be for thoughtful Christians of our day.

Easter Pancake Breakfast

The youth will be cooking pancake breakfast on Easter morning. They
will start serving after the Sunrise Service until about 9:45 a.m.

Come to the Sunrise Service or come early to the 10:30 a.m. service and
nourish your body with a hearty pancake breakfast and fellowship.

 Hurricane season runs from June 1st through November 30th. It has been seven years since
tropical storms Frances and Jeanne slammed into Marion County and damaged thousands of
homes.

Marion County Emergency Management will sponsor the next Hurricane and Storm Readiness
Expo from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m., Saturday, May 14, 2011 at the Ocala International Airport on
SW 60th Ave. This exposition is to rekindle the emphasis on preparedness.

This is a free event with free parking. It is anticipated that more than 20,000 will attend this
regional event. The expo will feature the Hurricane Hunter aircraft and Air Force Reserve pi-
lots as long as the plane is not called into action. There will be more than 70 vendors from all
across northern Florida displaying products and demonstrations related to hurricane season or
after-storm hazards. The event coordinators are also planning on the power companies bringing
demonstration trailers and interactive displays.
