utilize our new screen in the Sanctuary. To date, we have been using Power Point presentations but at least 2 software programs are out there that are great for worship support and each has its own unique set of problems. We will be looking to create a team to assist with the activities of computer programs as we work out the plan. The Trustees reviewed needs for the Happy Days and Summer Nights program schedule by the Education committee; Friday night events coming this summer. We have an offer for a movie screen to be used in the Social Hall. The issue of advertising these events came up with the conclusion being we need more than the marquee to do a good job. Banners and establishing a way to permanently display them is being discussed with more to follow. Oh, yes, one more thing.Does anyone know who the paper towel thief is? Remember to lock the doors you unlock.

Board of Trustees Next meeting - June 2 at 7:30 p.m. The Promised Glory of the New House The Promised Glory of the New House I will shake all the nations, and the desired of all nations will come, and I will fill this house with glory, says the Lord Almighty. - Haggai 2:7
After the first Jews were released from captivity in Babylon, they returned to Jerusalem and began the difficult and tedious task of rebuilding the temple which had been destroyed. They started work on the project no doubt filled with energy and enthusiasm. They were doing a great and important job. But after two years (no time at all for such an undertaking) the work on the Temple suddenly stopped. Why did the work stop? First, they were fearful of and intimidated by the Samaritans and other neighbors who did not want to see the Temple rebuilt. And secondly, they were discouraged that after two years, all they had completed was the foundation. A combination of intimidation and discouragement, caused people to turn away from the work to which God had called them. And they didnt start again for 16 years! We sometimes find ourselves making excuses for not energetically pursuing the work of Christ. And sometimes years go by without our having lifted a finger to accomplish anything in our community or in our Church. Often we allow FOF to stop us fear of failure and fear of folk! And so were left looking at the sad state of our neighborhoods, the half empty sanctuary, the empty Sunday School rooms, and we think, whats the use? But God sent The Prophet Haggai to challenge the Israelites and us to break out of our lethargy; to realize that we have nothing to fear because God is with us and is calling us to the task of building the Kingdom of God. And our job is not to judge the ultimate success of our work, but just to DO the work and to trust God for the final results. Last month, Del Rosa UMC presented its annual Rose of the Year award to Bob and Sandy Brendza in recognition of their faithful service in the church and in the community. Bob and Sandy are inspiring examples of Christian servant hood. They go quietly about their work for God; faithfully serving in good times, and bad. When we trust God for the results, we demonstrate our faith. In the end, God has promised to bring all our work for Christ to glorious fulfillment! Gods message for us through Haggai is simple, reassuring and direct: Be strongand workand I will fill this house with glory. Pastor Hilly Our Mother-Daughter-Friend lunch on May 10 was another successful event. We want to thank all who helped make it possible.

June 18-21Annual Conference at University of Redlands June 18UMW meal at AC Blanket Brigade
We will not meet this month. Our goal this year is to raise $160,194. That is $13,350 per month; $51,064 through April, $66,750 through May. We are having a great year so far. Through April we raised $61,430. This is due in part because of the rental incomes from The Church of God of Prophecy and the Parsonage. Although, while this helps, you need to keep up with your pledge so we will continue to have a good year We are ahead of our goal! But, we are coming into the lean months of summer. As for 2014 Apportionments & Benevolences we are asked to pay $19,932. To date we have paid $2,907. The Finance Committee voted to send in $5,593 to equal 5/12 Conference is asking for by Annual Conference. We will still owe $11,432. In July, our major fundraiser is coming up; the Fireworks Booth. Please come out and support it!!! It is held July 1-4; only 4 days. Thank you so much for your continued support. There are fewer of us (72 members) now, so that support will be more important than ever. We can always count on you!

Comeback:"I don't give out personal information over the phone. I'll contact the company directly." Tip #2: Don't believe it if the caller tells you to send money to cover the "handling charge" or to pay taxes. Comeback:"I shouldn't have to pay for something that's free." Tip #3: "Limited time offers" shouldn't require you to make a decision on the spot. Comeback:"I'll think about it and call you back. What's your number?" Tip #4: Be suspicious of anyone who tells you not to discuss the offer with someone else. Comeback:"I'll discuss it with my family and friends and get back to you." Tip #5: If you don't understand all the verbal details, ask for it in writing. Comeback:"I can't make a decision until I receive written information." Seniors can make easy targets for fraud, whether it's for unbelievable investment returns or fraudulent sweepstakes prizes. Fraud on seniors can happen by phone, mail, in person, or, less commonly, the Internet (because seniors are online in smaller numbers). It can happen to wealthy seniors, and those of limited means. According to the Federal Trade Commission, studies show con artists are more likely to target senior citizens than other age groups because they believe seniors are more susceptible to such scams. The FTC reports that fraudulent telemarketers direct from 56 to 80 percent of their calls at seniors. The need for senior fraud prevention has become greater than ever. "Seniors are available because they tend to be retired, they're home, they answer their phones and read their mail. So, some of the offers that come in aren't necessarily more attractive to seniors, but they have the time to read it," Jim Wright, managing director of programs at the National Crime Prevention Council, explains. "There's still the prevailing idea that seniors grew up in a more polite time when they thought it was rude to hang up on someone," he adds, "and there is the issue of being alone or lonely, so they're more likely to talk to strangers." According to the NCPC, seniors age 60 and over are targets of 49 percent of telemarketing scams involving medical care services and products, 41 percent involving sweepstakes and prizes, and 40 percent involving magazine sales. The NCPC estimates that each victim of a sweepstakes scheme lost an average of $7,000.
Phone fraud Wright explains that fraudulent telemarketers use five basic techniques: Scarcity: The senior has been identified as the grand prizewinner, but if she doesn't accept the prize immediately (and pay that "handling charge") the runner-up will get the prize instead. Hype: The telemarketer screams and hollers about how excited he is the senior has won. Authority: The telemarketer passes the phone to his "boss," so his target will know the offer is "legitimate." Phantom Fixation: The prize is too good to pass up, and the targeted senior becomes fixated on it. Reciprocity: The telemarketer explains that she won't receive her commission unless the senior accepts the prize and pays the handling fee. When the senior protests that he doesn't have enough money to pay the fee, the scammer asks how much he can afford, and says she'll accept that smaller amount, just because she's so happy the senior has won the prize. Wright says fraudsters will change from one persuasion tactic to another if necessary. "The theory is the longer we're on the phone, we're going to do business, legitimate or otherwise," he says. The NCPC (with Crime Dog McGruff as its spokesdog) has put together a short guide on senior fraud prevention. The guide features five ways to make unwanted telemarketers go away. Tape it by your loved one's phone and he or she will always have a polite-but firm-comeback for unscrupulous come-ons. (Of course, the best way to get rid of someone you don't want to talk to is to simply hang up.)
The scammer will most likely keep trying to convince his intended victim, so it's best to hang up after delivering the comeback line. Practice these comebacks with your loved one. Also, have your loved one tell telemarketers to take his or her name off their call list. If the telemarketers don't, they're breaking the law. Sign up for the National Do Not Call Registry. As a last resort, get your loved one an unlisted phone number. Fraudulent telemarketers may also use a senior's forgetfulness against them. The scammer may tell her target she's with a well-known charity, and the senior has forgotten to send a check for a pledge. "Most telemarketers can tell when they've got an older person by the voice or inflection of the voice and they will take advantage of it," Wright says. Fighting back Educating seniors about the different types of fraud and how to fight back can go a long way toward effective senior fraud prevention. The Illinois Attorney General's Office has an innovative program called Senior Sleuths. It trains senior citizens to educate other seniors about senior fraud prevention. AG staffers teach older citizens how to file complaints with the state's Consumer Fraud Bureau, and how to monitor telemarketing calls and door-to-door solicitations. Senior Sleuths also receive a resource manual with information on various types of scams, how to check a company's background before sending money, and how to file a complaint. The NCPC's Wright says fraud for all age groups is underreported, partly because the victim is embarrassed. Many seniors are afraid of losing their independence, so they won't tell their loved ones if they were defrauded, because they don't want them to take their checkbook away. Oftentimes, fraud happens because of a basic human emotion-loneliness. "There used to be somebody sitting across the table in a chair and they're not anymore; there's a void," Wright explains. "And, in many cases, who's filling that void is a telemarketer." Senior Fraud Prevention and Elderly Advice One of our members was recently approached by what turned out to be a scam phone call by someone posing as her granddaughter and asking to get her out of a holding cell in Mexico. Fortunately, the conversation never actually got to the point of asking for the money, and it ended there, but the end result could have turned out much worse. The following are excerpts from the www.aplaceformom.com web site on some of the ways scammers will try and take advantage of seniors. Visit the web site to see the article in its entirety.

The Mission Area (MA) met at Fontana UMC. The MA is the administrative and business part of what is the Inland Empire Cluster Council (IECC). Here are two of the items discussed: 1. Paragraph 213 of the Discipline has been started with Muscoy UMC. This comes from the District Superintendent to look at the health and vitality of the church. There are 4 people from 2 district committees, 3 members of Muscoy UMC and the supervising pastor, and 2 from the MA on this committee. We are working to bring a proposal to the congregation of Muscoy UMC to determine what will happen from here. 2. We discussed about ways to welcome the new DS to our MA. We will keep you informed as events, dates, times and places of this welcome are set. The Cluster Council met after the MA meeting. The following are the items we discussed: The Clergy Pulpit Exchange was great. We will continue to do this next year. The Laity Pulpit Exchange will happen on Sunday, August 24, 2014. It was the consensus of the committee that Laity Sunday needs to happen at each church. We also wanted to have the experience of having other Certified Lay Servants speak at churches other than their own. So the August date was calendared. Our Joshua Tree date has been moved to July 12th. If you have the time, it is a great experience even though you have to get up at a very early time. The Church of the Resurrection Partnership was discussed. Del Rosa UMC, Emmanuel UMC and Highland 1st UMC will continue the partnership for another year. St. Pauls UMC will continue through September. There will be a Cluster Picnic on July 27th. The park is yet to be determined. We will start to gather at noon and eat at 1:30 pm. It is a potluck so bring something to share. LIFT Renewal Ministry came to tell us about their Covenant Partnership Ministry. They would like the Cluster Churches to consider doing this partnership with them. This could be up to a 3 year partnership. It is done in 3 phases and at the end of each phase there is a time to discern if we want to continue with the next phase. The members of the council are taking the next 2 months to discern and pray if this is a direction we want to go in. Each of the members of the council were given an overview to look at. If you are interested, please see Rev. Dr. Hilly Hicks. More to come on this.
Respectfully submitted Liz Roark Mission Area Lay Leader CLUSTER COUNCIL Our next meeting will be July 15, 7:00 p.m. at Highland 1st Clergy Lunch: Friday, July 11, at 12 NoonCindy Huskey, host The next dates for Joshua Tree are; July 12, September 13 and December 6. If you have not been able to go, please prayerfully considering doing so. Your heart and spirit will be fed and uplifted by the experience.

With reluctant joyfulness, the Cal-Pac RVers in Mission complete their final mission project, #235, at Altadena United Methodist Church, in May of 2014. Mission Project #1 was completed in 1986. As the time of sharing RVers in Mission stories came to a close at Altadena United Methodist Church, Rev. Yvonne Boyd of Altadena shared about a time when the RVers in Mission visited a local church that was located next to a mining company. There was debris everywhere and the church was not in good shape. So, the RVers in Mission came by and nursed the church building back to health. This inspired the owner of the adjacent mining company who then organized a clean up of all of the debris in their area. Thus, while the Cal-Pac RVers in Mission, after having completed 235 mission projects in 28 years, end their work as an organized group, the impact of their meaningful life and love remain a blessing in the lives of those privileged to have met them. I came in crying and everyone just started to hug me, said Sharon. While almost the entire group is from Orange First United Methodist Church, Sharon is a member of Shepherd of the Hills United Methodist Church in Mission Viejo along with her husband Gary. Both are retired and decided to spend time together in meaningful mission with the group. What she found in addition to opportunities to serve was genuine Christian fellowship. She says, We are family. I mean, we cannot spend this much time together and not be family. We know each other well and we know how to care for each other. For the past few years, the group has held an annual vote of whether or not to continue the ministry of the RVers in Mission. The vote has always been unanimous, one way or another. This year, the group decided it was time to accomplish one final mission as those involved are anywhere from 65 to 85 years old and many have already gone before them into eternal glory or have become unable to participate due to illness. I hate the thought of not being able to see everyone, shared Sharon. I accidentally spilled the bucket of paint on the church driveway. So, everyone ran over with their rollers and began to roll it up to paint the fence. Then, I got the power-washer and made the paint disappear. The church never knew what happened, confessed Sharon Mason, a relative newcomer to the RVers in Mission, in a time of sharing stories at Altadena United Methodist Church. The Cal-Pac RVers in Mission are a group of United Methodists who travel in RVs in order to be in mission for an extended period of time at a particular location. Mostly, the mission projects have to do with facilities maintenance or repair work of local churches that a congregation might not always have the time or people to perform. So, a local church would always agree to provide the materials for the work and the RVers would offer up themselves as workers. The skills required include painting with rollers, using a power- washer, cleaning gutters, but also prayer and love.

HYDRATION. CANNOT STRESS IT ENOUGH! The weather channel and every other source available says we are headed for the hottest summer on record. Im sure everyone knows to do the following, but heres a reminder: Use sun screen Stay indoors during the hottest time of day; 12 noon-3 p.m. Maintain hydration at ALL times, whether youre indoors or out. In my wondering how to attack this big issue from a different angle I went to my computer connection at the Mayo Clinic web site. I see many people in my job that end up dehydrated from a variety of reasons and I picked this reminder for the Drumbeat: Dehydration occurs when you use or lose more fluid than you take in, and your body doesn't have enough water and other fluids to carry out its normal functions. If you don't replace lost fluids, you will get dehydrated. Common causes of dehydration include vigorous exercise, especially in hot weather; intense diarrhea; vomiting; fever or excessive sweating. Not drinking enough water during exercise or in hot weather even if you're not exercising also may cause dehydration. Anyone may become dehydrated, but young children, older adults and people with chronic illnesses are most at risk. You can usually reverse mild to moderate dehydration by drinking more fluids, but severe dehydration needs immediate medical treatment. The safest approach is preventing dehydration in the first place. Keep an eye on how much fluid you lose during hot weather, illness or exercise, and drink enough liquids to replace what you've lost. Mild to moderate dehydration is likely to cause: Dry, sticky mouth Sleepiness or tiredness children are likely to be less active than usual Thirst Decreased urine output No wet diapers for three hours for infants Few or no tears when crying Dry skin Headache Constipation Dizziness or lightheadedness
Remember, as we age our body needs or has special medical needs that require medications to maintain normalcy. We all need to remember that you are special and need to adapt to changes that our world presents. More information to the above is available on the Mayo Clinic web site but if you dont have a computer or availability to the internet, a hard copy of it is available in the church office.
