VBS Begins tonight, Camps are soon, Discipleship and Donuts

Dear Stillmeadow Family!

What a treasure it was to have our Summer Kickoff yesterday on Pentecost Sunday! We brought together both of our campuses and the Haitian congregation for one service under the theme: “Would you do it again, Lord?”

The theme comes from Habakkuk 3:2.

LORD, I have heard of your fame;

I stand in awe of your deeds, LORD.

Repeat them in our day,

in our time make them known;

Let’s pray that God would repeat himself in our day.

Let’s pray that God would empower his people to share his good news, that people of all languages would hear and respond to Jesus, that many would repent and be baptized, that the church would be united by his Spirit.

Let’s pray for the seven who were baptized yesterday (5 youth, y’all!).

And let’s pray for Vacation Bible School that begins tonight! VBS has been a transformational experience for many over the years. Let’s pray that God uses these moments to win the hearts of young people and families alike.

I’m grateful for and cheering for you this morning!

In Christ’s love,

Josh

Grads! Summer Kickoff, VBS and Summer Camps!

Dear Friends,

Congratulations!

It was a very special day yesterday, honoring our high school and college grads. From high school we celebrated: Brody Dedrick, Cadence Kleinfeld, Logan Miller and Luke Zeigler. From college and grad school we celebrated: Chase Bumsted, Aiden Fraser, Rachel Horak, Peyton Hurlbert and Brielle Pfeiffer.

On a personal note: thanks!

As a parent of one of the graduates, I am overwhelmed with gratitude for the role that the family of God at Stillmeadow has played in the faith development of my daughter. Aubrey and I dedicated Cadence here and you all have lived up to the commitment you made as a congregation on that dedication day.

Summer Kickoff Worship is THIS SUNDAY, JUNE 8 AT 10AM

I really hope that you’ll participate in this Sundays Worship Service. We’ll have both campuses together and join in worship with the Haitian congregation that meets on our Stillmeadow Lane Campus. We’ll start at 10 on the front lawn, have worship and baptisms, then conclude with a meal together. Bring your lawn chairs and food to share. I already signed up to bring a side of veggies, and I’m thinking of bringing ham and cheese sliders too. For sign ups and more info: www.stillnaz.com/summerkickoff.

Will you pray with me?

The Summer Kickoff, VBS and Summer Camps are critical times in the life of the faith development of our church. I am praying that God will use these events to 1) unite his people, 2) energize his family for his mission, and 3) awaken the spiritually dead. I am praying against 1) disunity, 2) mission drift, and 3) spiritual deadness. Will you pray for these times and the people involved?

In Christ’s love,

Josh

Memorial Day and all the Summer Stuff

Dear Friends,

This is a special day in the life of the nation of the United States. To those who have lost loved ones who have served in our military, we extend our condolences and pray for your comfort.

Here is a special Memorial Day prayer.

Father, we thank you for those who have sacrificed themselves in the line of duty for this country. We honor their service and pray that their courage would be common among us. We look forward to the day when all wars will cease.

Jesus, it is through your sacrifice that all people may be free. What you did on the cross at the hands of a corrupt empire, contentious crowd and hypocritical religious leaders shows that your love can overcome the brokenness of this world.

Holy Spirit, comfort those who are mourning the loss of their loved ones; guide Your church to be people of sacrificial love and peace so that the world will know that true peace and freedom comes from following and imitating the King who laid down his life for all.

In Christ’s love,

Josh

Grad Sunday, Summer Kickoff, VBS and Camps

Dear Stillmeadow Family,

Yesterday we celebrated the mission and impact of Stillmeadow Childcare Center that meets within our building. We are blessed to have this partnership. We also announced that they will be updating their playground within the next couple months. Check out yesterday’s service (insert link to youtube) to see more!

We also received a message of encouragement from the prophet Isaiah. That book of the Bible is PACKED with goodness (almost every chapter is quoted in the New Testament!). But we centered our attention on the passage where Isaiah received his call to be a prophet: Isaiah 6:1-9a. We firmly believe that, just like Isaiah, each of us has a call from God for our lives. Isaiah was called to serve the people of his day, and he said, “Here I am Lord, send me.”

Here I am Lord; send me.

May this be our heart’s prayer every morning, no matter our circumstance. We are called to serve our families, our neighbors, our caretakers, our friends, even our enemies with the love that Jesus has shared with us through his life, death and resurrection.

Praying for and cheering for you to have the attitude and prayer of Isaiah.

Sent with you,

Josh

Eastern Nazarene College Update

Stillmeadow is part of the Mid-Atlantic District, which is part of the Eastern Field, which is part of the USA/Canada Nazarene Region. On the Eastern Field, Eastern Nazarene College was our “home college.” Recently the Board of Trustees made the difficult decision to close the college. ENC"‘s last day will be May 30, 2025. Please see the letter from Dr. David Bowser, who both serves as our District Superintendent and the Chair of the ENC Board of Trustees. The letter outlines the process of decision-making that led to the closure, as well as plans for the coming days. Today, we thank God for the impact of ENC over the past 100+ years.

Corrected: VBS and SUN Ministry, Grad Sunday, Summer Kickoff and Camps

Dear Stillmeadow Family,

(sorry to clog your box with two emails at the start of the week, but we sent out the wrong message yesterday and wanted to get the right info to you!)

To all the mother’s and all the women of our congregation, may you experience the nearness of our God’s love as you read these words and go about your week.

On Sunday we looked at how Elisha and Jesus both met the physical and spiritual needs of their neighbors whether they were local or foreigners. The mission of God is not limited to people who are like us. The mercy of God is not narrow but wide enough for all people.

I encourage you to check out the message from Stillmeadow Lane and York City.

I also encourage you to prayerfully consider how you can serve the kiddos, widows, untouchables and outsiders of our day. You can find ways to serve on our Serve Page. We’ve got a team going to help with a Habitat House this Friday. And I would love if you served with our Vacation Bible School and/or our Stillnaz Unique Needs (SUN) Ministry. Sign up for VBS Volunteering here where you can also sign up for SUN Ministry.

If we are going to be a community that lives like Elisha and Jesus in our day, we’ll need to

1) confess where we fall short in caring like them

2) commit to caring for the kiddos, widows, untouchables and outsiders

3) ask for eyes to see and hands to serve with God’s mercy.

By God’s grace and with his peace, we can do this.

Praying and cheering for you.

VBS, Concert, Journey House Paint Night

Happy Easter Stillmeadow Family!

On Sunday we pondered the question Elijah asked the people of his day: “How long will you waver between two opinions?”

Elijah’s ministry was proof that God’s opinion about his people did not waver, but instead God was faithful in sending prophets to share his concern and desire for his people.

And Jesus is the perfect prophet who not only demonstrated God’s love through his sacrifice on the cross, but now empowers his people to live out his love in all we do.

Let us not waver between opinions, but instead, let us listen to Jesus, the perfect prophet, in all that we do.

Grateful for, praying for and cheering for you in this journey with Jesus,

VBS, Concert, Property Changes, Kids Ministry Update

Happy Easter Stillmeadow Family!

Did you know that Easter is not just a day, but a season? Yup! Just as Lent is a season of fasting that leads up to the celebration of resurrection, Easter is a season of feasting that leads up to Pentecost!

As we celebrate the Easter season, may we have an Easter Imagination about the world. The grave could not hold back the King. Death has no more sting. Jesus is greater than everything.

What if we looked at those the world sees as hopeless through the lens of resurrection? What if we looked at those the world sees as difficult through the lens of resurrection?

Kids Ministry Update

We are moving between stage 3 and 4 of our children’s ministry transition. Phase 1 was saying farewell to and celebrating Pastor Rachel while also grieving her departure. Phase 2 was the Interim Prayer Phase as we seek God’s guidance on what’s next. Phase 3 was the Search Phase as we put together a job description and interview potential candidates for the position. Phase 4 will be the welcome and integration of a new leader.

After several initial interviews, we are excited to bring a candidate in for a formal interview process. She will be with us this weekend (May 2-5) to meet with the Stillnaz Kids Ministry Team, Pastoral Staff and Board. She will be helping lead our 9:00 elementary worship service and will be joining us for our 10:30 adult worship service.

Please continue in prayer with us as we seek God’s will together. We are grateful for Trudy Gunnet’s service as our Children’s Ministry Director in this interim season!

Happy Easter Stillmeadow Family!

What a joy it was to celebrate the Resurrection of our Savior together and to witness 12 baptisms across both campuses! Our Resurrected Lord has given us a mission to share the good news that He brings new life to any who put their trust in Him.

Jonathan Phillips will be sharing about that mission this Sunday, April 27

We’re excited to hear stories of God’s resurrection power at work in the church in Romania in our services at both campuses this weekend.

Baptism Stories

If you heard the baptism stories on Sunday, you probably noticed a theme between many. It was in the context of God’s community that these folks chose to put their trust in Jesus. The experience of God’s grace through God’s people was what drew them in. With that in mind, I thank God for each of you who are extending God’s grace and living out His mission.

Dear Stillmeadow Family,

Lean in and consider what God may be saying to you in today’s Lenten Devotional by Lea Ann Shaffer.

Scripture: 2 Kings 12-14, Psalm 104

A verse from our Psalm today says that “…if you turn away from them, they panic. When you take away their breath, they die and turn again to dust. When you give them your breath, life is created, and you renew the face of the earth.” For both man and animal, it is God who gives life. What we do with that life is up to us. In our scriptures today, kings were born, they reigned, and they died. Some did right in the eyes of the Lord, some did evil. And as we will read later in Chronicles, some did not finish out so well.

This causes me to examine my heart. Am I serving God single mindedly? James 1:6 says “…be sure that your faith is in God alone. Do not waver, for a person with divided loyalty is as unsettled as a wave of the sea that is blown and tossed by the wind.” I want to live my life like the prophet Elisha who followed God wholeheartedly and was used by God to lead the people and to do good for the people.

Prayer:

Father, may all my thoughts be pleasing to you. May I remember life and breath are in your hands and what I do with this day does make a difference. I pray that I will walk in the light you give me each day and obey you in all things. Amen

Daily Prayer Focus: The ones living with unforgiveness and bitterness.

Grateful for, praying for and cheering for you in this journey with Jesus,

Pastor Josh

Dear Stillmeadow Family,

Lean in and consider what God may be saying to you in today’s Lenten Devotional by Nate Hurlbert.

Scripture: 1 Kings 11-13, Psalm 97

So much is happening in these passages, tales of obedience and disobedience, stories of prophecy and injustice. I am reminded that these ancient people are just like us. I know when I read these old stories, I think to myself “what is wrong with these people? Why are they choosing to do wrong? I would never do that.” But it’s foolish and prideful to think that way. We forget these are humans with emotions, fears, cultural pressures. Do we not suffer from the same? Even now we are quick to have our ears tickled, to throw our lot behind someone in power or follow the crowd. Psalm 97 reminds us that the earth is the Lords. It was His then and it is still His, thousands of years later. We are a people set apart, the Church, similar to the Israelites. And like them, we tend to fight with each other and our neighbors. We need to remember that we know what is right and good and true; God’s word tells us. Through Jesus, we have a way to live that does not need fear, anxiety, peer or cultural pressures to drive us.

How can we as a churched people break free of the cultural challenges that grip us? Remember, Jesus calls us to live sacrificially.

Daily Prayer Focus: All expecting mothers and fathers and unborn children

Dear Stillmeadow Family,

Lean in and consider what God may be saying to you about healing family dysfunction in today’s Lenten Devotional by Pastor Kent Vandervort.

Scripture: 2 Samuel 13-15, Psalm 90

2 Samuel 13-15 tells us a disconcerting story. Why in the world would it be included in the Biblical narrative? Here it is: the dysfunction of David’s children is laid bare for all to see. Several years ago, I purchased a book titled “Secrets of Your Family Tree: Healing for Adult Children of Dysfunctional Families.” Earl Henslin wrote the chapter dealing with this passage.

He noted that David’s children had seen their father model this behavior when he engaged with Bathsheba. The behaviors observed came with the pain lived out. This is a part of God’s Story, and for many of us, family dysfunction is also a part of our story.

As David discovered, “there is no easy way out - no magic fix.” Henslin goes on, “The task of healing is one of great faith. Sometimes, it is hard to take that step of faith, trusting that the Holy Spirit will lead you as you actively search for the help you need. But in the end, it will be worth it”.

The psalmist acknowledges this in Psalm 90: "8 You have set our iniquities before you, our secret sins in the light of your presence. 9 All our days pass away under your wrath; we finish our years with a moan. But the Psalmist concludes, “16 May your deeds be shown to your servants, your splendor to their children. 17 May the favor[a] of the Lord our God rest on us; establish the work of our hands for us— yes, establish the work of our hands”. Conclusion: may God’s love become our new Story as we discover how to live out His story of redemption in our lives.

Daily Prayer Focus: All who work in construction

Grateful for, praying for and cheering for you in this journey with Jesus,

Pastor Josh

Dear Stillmeadow Family,

Lean in and consider what God may be saying to you about jealousy and loyalty in today’s Lenten Devotional.

Scripture: 1 Samuel 18-20, Psalm 83

GodStory:

In our readings for today, David’s experience of Saul and Jonathan feels right out of a Hollywood screenplay. With King Saul, David encountered jealousy: “Saul became still more afraid of him, and he remained his enemy the rest of his days” (1 Sam 18:29). With Saul’s son Jonathan, David encountered loyalty. “Jonathan said to David, ‘Go in peace, for we have sworn friendship with each other in the name of the Lord…’” (1 Sam 20:42)

OurStory:

Jealousy is a haunting vice, stirring murderous thoughts and sometimes even actions. Loyalty is a heroic virtue, stirring sacrificial thoughts and actions. In Jesus’ life we see how the jealousy of the religious leaders led to his false accusations and unjust execution. But we also see how the loyalty of Jesus led him to stay faithful to his Father and his love for all people, despite the cost and the pain. In OurStory and relationships today, we have a choice: follow Jesus in the way of loyalty and service or follow the way of Saul and others like him in the way of jealousy and destruction.

Blessing:

May you be the kind of friend who remains loyal despite the cost and the pain, so that others may experience the loyalty of Christ through you.

Daily Prayer Focus: All who suffer from mental illness.

Grateful for, praying for and cheering for you in this journey with Jesus,

Pastor Josh

Dear Stillmeadow Family,

Ponder on Nate Voorhees’ Lenten Devotional today…

Scripture: Judges 19-21, Psalm 76

I remember coming across this story for the first time a few years ago. I was totally reviled by it! How could such a thing happen among the people of God?!? Worse yet, when the people learned of this, they sought to bring justice to the situation and remove this wickedness from among them, even praying for guidance in their means of doing so. They went to WAR over it, and not once, but TWICE they failed! Where was God?!? I was put into a several-week funk over this! In those days I wrestled with God like Jacob had, pleading with Him for an explanation! Why would a Just, Righteous and Holy God let this happen?!?

Weeks later, I finally got my answer. Mind you it was not the answer I wanted, but it was AN answer none the less. One day when I was exhausted from wrestling, I heard the Still Small Voice of God "Look at the response of My people." And that was it. God wanted me to notice that when His people saw this vile wickedness had taken place among them, they sought to remove it and they refused to accept failure in doing so. They would try and try again until they succeeded no matter the cost because they were right in doing so.

Dear Stillmeadow Family,

Be encouraged by Jonathan Boyer’s Lenten Devotional today…

Scripture: Joshua 22-24, Psalm 69

The middle of today’s reading is Joshua’s recital of how God intervened in Israel’s placement in the land he promised to their ancestors. He charged Israel to faithfully obey the Torah of God just as he was charged to obey Torah, God’s law, as they entered the promised land. I was struck by “. . .not one of all the good promises the LORD your God gave you has failed.” (23.14).

God’s promises will not fail because he does not fail.

Israel failed. We fail.

But God does not fail.

Israel must believe God’s promise of the land, living out their believing by obeying. If Israel did not obey they were not doing their part to receive what God wanted to give them and had provided for them. The same is true for us. Obedience demonstrates trust. Obedience positions us to be where we can receive the best God has for us. Jesus said: “If you love me, you will obey what I command.” (John 14.15)

What has Jesus been telling you to do, but for whatever reason, you haven’t done?

Blessing: May today be that day when you show him and yourself you truly trust him and love him.

“I praise your holy name, O God, in song and glorify you with thanksgiving.” Psalm 69.30

Gather25 Recap, Lent Devotionals, Emotionally Healthy Relationships

Dear Stillmeadow Family,

Gather25 was amazing

What an incredible weekend at Gather25. My soul was thrilled with the stories of God’s work from around the world, and my heart was encouraged to carry out GodStory in OurStory here in York. Did God challenge or move you in a particular way through Gather25? Share it with your small group or email me!

You can go back and watch parts of the stream on their YouTube channel. One of my favorite joys was worshiping with people from around the globe (a taste of heaven!), especially this song.

Continuing in Christian Unity through Lenten Prayers

This Lenten Journey (March 5-April 20) we are adding a new layer to our Lenten Devotionals. In addition to incredible reflections written by our Stillmeadow family, we are partnering with 13 local churches to be unified in prayer. Each day of Lent has a prayer focus that we are inviting our people to remember through the day. You can get the prayer guide on our prayer page, in our Lenten Devotional, or in our GodStory OurStory March Journal (can you tell, we’re serious about this?!).

Shema (Listen Up)! We started The Third Month of GodStory OurStory Series

On Sunday, we started our third month in our GodStory OurStory series of journeying through Scripture with Jesus in 2025. We touched briefly on the “Shema” in Deuteronomy 6. And the Bible Project has an excellent series that goes even deeper in the subject. Check it out here, but more importantly, live it out where you are.

Grateful for, praying for and cheering for you in this journey with Jesus,

Pastor Josh

UPMC Tragedy, Gather25 and Lent

Dear brothers and sisters of the suffering and resurrected Lord Jesus Christ,

On this Monday after the UPMC Memorial Hospital tragedy, where Officer Duarte died in the line of duty and five others were injured, our hearts grieve and our minds search for answers. As we walk through the aftermath, here are a few things to remember.

This is awful. A place of healing was converted into a place of horror.
This affects all of us. Even if you were not directly impacted on Saturday, you likely know somebody who was.
This will linger. Traumatic events are not “just another day” and affect us in ongoing and unpredictable ways.
This is not the end of the story. We follow a Savior who turns darkness into light.

If you are suffering…

God is not far away. Psalm 34:18 says, “the Lord is near the brokenhearted.”
God is not inattentive. Psalm 22:24 says, “[the Lord] has not despised or scorned the suffering of the afflicted one; he has not hidden his face from him but has listened to his cry for help.”
God is not unmoved. John 11:35 says, “Jesus wept.”
God is not finished. Revelation 21:4 promises a future with “no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”

You can trust him with your broken heart and distressed mind and grieving soul.

If you know someone who is suffering…

You are in the place to represent God’s presence, attention, grief and hope. Romans 12:9-21 describes sincere love within the body of Christ. We are called to be “patient in affliction” and to “mourn with those who mourn” and to “overcome evil with good.” That looks like the following:

Reach out. Send a card or text or meal. Be available and represent God’s presence.
Listen up. Grief and trauma need to be processed not analyzed. Allow your friend an “open mic” to share what feelings they are experiencing and thoughts they are thinking.
Weep along. As Jesus wept with his friends (John 11), feel the grief of your loved ones and neighbors. Be openhearted; don’t rush them through this.
Point to Jesus. Eternal healing and hope is found in Him. When appropriate, share how Jesus has helped you in your pain and grief.

Need support?

If you’re in a small group, please reach out to another member or your leader. If you’re not connected in a group, please call the office at 717-764-4888 and ask to speak to a pastor. You don’t need to suffer alone.

We also partner with New Beginnings Therapy Services who provide a safe space to process. If you’re interested, call 717-542-5043.

I am grateful for each of you and praying for you.

Grace and Peace,

Pastor Josh

Dear saints,

Yesterday we heard a couple Ebenezer stories in our worship times at the Stillmeadow Lane Campus. And at the York City Campus “third Sunday Praises” were shared. Check out the services (Stillmeadow Lane Campus and York City Campus ).

How have you experienced God’s faithfulness in your life this year? I encourage you to take a moment now and give thanks to him. And I’d encourage you to share that. Email me (pastorjosh@stillnaz.com) or send a text to a friend saying something like, “I just need to tell you about God’s faithfulness in my life.”

In our series, “GodStory OurStory” we want to not only look at how the Bible tells the story of salvation in Jesus Christ, but we want to develop our storytelling abilities. The world needs to know GodStory and OurStory. People need to hear about God’s work in our lives.

I’m excited about our Lenten Devotionals this year. They’re going with the reading plan and each one features an aspect of GodStory and OurStory. Some of the devotionals have a word of testimony that I am sure will bless and encourage you. You can sign up to receive them daily in your email (click here to sign up), or you can pick them up on March 2 at our welcome desks.

Grace and Peace,

Gather25, New Courses, Grounds Maintenance

Dear Stillmeadow Family,

In our message on Exodus yesterday we highlighted Exodus 34:6-7, where God revealed his most essential character to Moses.

6 And he passed in front of Moses, proclaiming, “The Lord, the Lord, the compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness, 7 maintaining love to thousands, and forgiving wickedness, rebellion and sin. Yet he does not leave the guilty unpunished; he punishes the children and their children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation.”

The Bible Project has some incredible insight on this passage. As you go about your week, may your remember that he is Compassionate, Gracious, Slow to Anger, overflowing with Loyal Love and Faithfulness. (Click on each word for an inspiring video on each aspect of God’s character).

I’m thankful for, praying for and cheering for you this week.

A Nite Together, Kids Night Out, Child Dedication, Gather25

Dear Stillmeadow Family,

Yesterday’s message highlighted how God used a dysfunctional family with imperfect people to bring his perfect Son into the world to create a new family of all people. It is a profound reminder that those Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Joseph may be heroes of the faith, but they are not the object of our faith. We do not put our trust in our family line, but our family leader, Jesus Christ.

This has implications for our own biological families and for our spiritual family. Our hope is not in our parents nor in our children, but in the God of the world. Our hope is not in the church, but in the head of the church, Jesus Christ.

I really appreciated Terrence Fretheim’s observation on the storyline of Abraham’s family: “God is the only one who has been active in the story with a constant good purpose from beginning to end -- that there might be life for all.”

In OurStory we have an active, constant, good and life-giving God made known perfectly in the Son Jesus Christ and lovingly revealed by the Spirit. Whatever dysfunction you have inherited or passed on, God’s goodness is greater and he has healing and redemption for you and those you have impacted. Let’s trust his promises and be amazed at his work.

Trusting his promises and grateful for you!

Dear Stillmeadow Family,

“from the beginning, God‘s people are to be “missionary.” They are chosen to be a channel of blessing to others.” (55 The Drama of Scripture)

Yesterday, on Vision Sunday, we looked back at God’s call to Abraham (Genesis 12) and Jesus’ call to the disciples (Matthew 28). Like Abraham, Sarah and the disciples were are being invited this year to…

Take God at his word.
Go with God beyond the familiar.
Be a blessing to our world.

I encourage you today to remember that as God was faithful to his “missionary” people over the last couple thousand years, he is and will be faithful to us and to you as you follow Jesus in this life.

Part of that faithfulness was experienced in the stories shared across both campuses yesterday and at the Chili/Soup Cookoff last night. (Congrats to Lisa Rumsey for the winning chili and Kathleen Herman for the winning soup. Yummy!) And we will get to experience that faithfulness together as we follow Christ together this year.

I’m thankful for, praying for and cheering for you.
