The GREAT Mistake By Wanda Clay
It was quite a tumultuous week during Jesus last seven days on earth as a man…Jesus rides a donkey into town, making his triumphant entrance into the city of Jerusalem on Palm Sunday! The people lay down palm leaves and shout, “Hosanna!” The next day Jesus goes to the temple where he has to drive out the “money changers.” In celebration of the Passover Jesus got with his disciples in the Upper Room on Maundy Thursday. He washes their feet and has a final meal with them as they reminisce over the events that have already occurred. He also attempts to let them know what lies ahead and gives them another commandment... to love one another and eat and drink in his remembrance (we know this as Holy Communion). Judas, one of Jesus’ disciples, leaves to betray Jesus. Jesus is arrested. Another of Jesus’ disciples, Peter, denies knowing Jesus. He was tried in a “kangaroo” court and sentenced to death. Jesus was beaten, paraded through the streets, nailed to a cross and lifted between two thieves. That was a GREAT mistake! They lifted him up! Later he was taken down and put in a borrowed tomb. Early that Sunday morning, Easter…Mary Magdeline arrived at the tomb where he was buried to find that the stone had been rolled away and he was not there! Jesus lives! "And, If I be lifted up . . ."

Rev. Dr. Kennard Murray new District Superintendent for the Red River District
The decision was made at the 2016 Annual Conference to authorize moving from seven districts to five which will enable us to do the following: • Fewer districts will allow our District Superintendents, as missional strategists, to more easily collaborate in creating training and resources through categories of churches with similar context and size. • The District Superintendents will partner with Rev. Melinda Britt, Director of Connectional Ministries, to identify trained leaders who will walk churches through processes to help them better understand their contexts and create measurable outcomes for ministry. Phone: 615-329-4464 By identifying the assets and needs of congregations, we Fax: 615-321-0975 hope to help them leverage the gifts of each congregation Email:[email protected] and envision new opportunities for ministry and missional web: www.ClarkUMCNashville.org engagement.
The "Write" Rev I don’t know about you, but I am constantly amazed at the lengths we humans go to in subjugating and discriminating against each other. Just look at the tools we use to measure an individual’s or a group’s humanity and worth: gender, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, religion or the lack thereof, socio-economic status, immigration status, education, political affiliation, skin color, hair texture. Just yesterday, I heard a man say he believes in freedom and equality for women, but this freedom must be contained within the boundaries of his religious tradition and his cultural heritage. Sounds like real freedom doesn’t it? And what about human rights? Is decent, affordable housing a right or a privilege; healthcare, a right or a privilege; quality education, right or privilege? I believe human kind is created in the image and likeness of God. Every person is a person of worth and dignity. I believe in the formative and transformative power of the way of life Jesus taught and personified. It’s reconciling and restorative, it’s positive and powerful, it’s liberating and lifegiving. It shapes our futures and shapes us for the future God has planned for us, despite present circumstances. How about you? Peace! Pastor Herbert

Hi everyone! Once again it is time to plan for our summer program. This year's VBS will be held the week of JUNE 5-9 from 5pm to 8:30pm here at Clark Your contributions in 2016 were great and truly appreciated! Because of the date change it is imperative that we know whether you will not be available as we begin the recruitment process. Please let me know what days are not good for gathering for planning. I know Easter is just around the corner, but we need to gather as soon as possible. Thank you for your previous participation and I look forward to working with many of you again this year. Should you know of others interested please let me know. Yours in Christ, Grace Brady PS: I need a reply ASAP! Thanks.

"After the Rain" “April showers bring May flowers.” This is a saying that I remember hearing many years ago. However, these days, April and May just might bring rain, snow, sleet, hail and sunshine all in one week! Nevertheless, it is springtime. When the showers come it soaks the soil. During this season of frequent rain, there are gloomy days and days when we just don’t want to get out and deal with umbrellas, puddles and “crazy” drivers. And, then the sun begins to shine! After the rain, we begin to see the flowers bloom. The trees begin to sprout green leaves and soon there are lots of days that have beautiful sunshine and landscapes that are a colorful canvas of brightly colored flowers and greenery. And, such is life…we experience episodes of trials and tribulations much like rain and storms. Just as the soil is being prepared during the time of rain. We can’t see the work that is being done underground. We can’t see how the soil is moving the earth so that the seeds can grow and make not only beautiful flowers for our viewing pleasure, but the soil is being prepared so that it can make a harvest of foods to eat. These foods will nourish our bodies and help us to grow just as the sunshine is used to assist in the growth. It takes both…sunshine and rain. What we can’t see during life’s trials and
tribulations are often things that will make us better. They are life’s l e s s o n s a n d l i f e ’s cultivations. I would like to take this time to thank some people who have done some things that cultivate the lives of others. Of course, there are more than I can name and I hope to share others in the months to come. In February a group of people prepared and delivered meals daily for Meals on Wheels. Thank you… Melvin Kirk, coordinator, Michael Anthony, Evelyn McKinney, Betty Ogletree, Thurman McClenton, Ronnie Johnson, and Veronica Springer. And, thank you to Fred Fielder, who is the driver for Bethelehem Center for EVERY Church! Since December 2016 until the last week in March, Clark hosted visitors from Room In The Inn. Of course, we thank everyone who hosted each week and ALL of the participants. However, there were some volunteers that were with our RITI guest practically every week. Thank you…Travis Lloyd, Michael Anthony, Chris McKissack, Zero Elbrey and James Campbell who served as Inn Keepers; Austin Venzen, breakfast cook; Maxine Chandler-Auguste, Eddie Gray, III and Carlos Dade, Van drivers; George Breaux, photographer; Princilla Morris, photo interpreter and Harriet Rogers, coordinator.

Justice For All is a website that is the result of a project of the Tennessee Supreme Court. This project has been created in hopes that everyone will get help from a lawyer for their legal questions. The best thing you have when facing legal problems is to talk with a lawyer. The court realizes that sometimes people cannot get help from a lawyer because they cannot afford one and/or they decide to represent themselves. Most of the people who cannot afford a lawyer and need legal help in civil cases will benefit most from this website. Civil cases are cases that do not involve a crime. The website can be used to find a lawyer to help you with your case or part of your case, to find an agency to help you with legal issues or find information to help you understand what you need to do to represent yourself.
