This week, Jacob Schandel sits down with JoAnn Carpenter from Refuge of Hope Ministries in downtown Canton, Ohio. For those who do not know, Refuge of Hope is the only men-only homeless shelter in all of Stark County. On the third Monday of each month, our church has a group that serves a meal at Refuge of Hope. On this episode, we catch up with JoAnn since the last time she spoke to our congregation both in-person on Palm Sunday and through this podcast. (You can hear that episode here, which we re-ran at the end of June: https://soundcloud.com/sotvsandyville/06302019-throwback-to-04142019-choir-performance-and-joann-carpenter-from-refuge-of-hope.) Since we last spoke, they have moved into an immaculate new building, which Jacob got the opportunity to tour right before the interview, where he got the privilege to see just how much Refuge of Hope does for those in need. In this podcast, JoAnn invites you to come see the building for yourself as well (an opportunity which you won’t want to pass up)! To learn more about Refuge of Hope and its mission, please visit www.refugeofhope.org, or please feel free to contact JoAnn at 330.280.2153.

This week, Jacob Schandel sits down with Dorothy “Dottie” Scott to talk about three ministries at our church. First, they discuss our long-running Barney Bear Ministry, where members of the church can take stuffed bears to those in need of prayer and comfort. Next, they discuss the Prayer Shawl Ministry, which makes shawls for those in need of comfort which we, as a congregation, say a blessing over. Lastly, we talk about a newer ministry at the church, which takes recycled grocery bags and turns them into mats which the homeless can use for comfort. They discuss also how, if the spirit moves you, you can support all three ministries. At the end, Dottie touches on a few other projects that build from what these three ministries are doing. You can learn more about the prayer shawls and Barney bears at www.sotvchurch.com/prayers.

On this episode of the Shepherdcast, we will be taking a look at Joel 2:21-27, Psalm 126, 1 Timothy 2:1-7, and the Gospel of Matthew 6:25-33, and the Reverend Scott J. Anderson will be discussing giving thanks to the Lord and everything we can be thankful for as we head into this Thanksgiving week. Today’s episode came from our worship service on Sunday, November 18, 2018. (This week, we had a different problem with our pastor's microphone, but we had to do the same thing as last week and repair the audio. We apologize for the poor sound quality on the sermon portion of this week's podcast.) In case you are reading along with a Bible and our readings don’t necessarily match up with yours, we use the NRSV translation of the Holy Bible. Our sermon is delivered by the Reverend Scott J. Anderson. Our lay reader this Sunday was Karen Broadwater. Our sound room technician for this Sunday was Jack Bowman. This podcast was hosted and produced by Jacob H. Schandel for Shepherd of the Valley Evangelical Lutheran Church. To learn more about our church, please visit www.sotvchurch.com, or follow us on social media @sotvsandyville.

On this episode of the Shepherdcast, after some nice words from veteran (and, this week, lay reader) Bill Bowman, we will be taking a look at Micah 4:1-5, Psalm 85, Ephesians 2:13-18, and the Gospel of John 20:19-23, and the Reverend Scott J. Anderson will be discussing Armistice Day, Veteran’s Day, freedom, and peace. Today’s episode came from our worship service that not only celebrated Veteran’s Day 2018, but the 100th anniversary of the World War I Armistice, on Sunday, November 11, 2018. (A little heads up on those words from Bill at the beginning: his microphone was knocked sideways for most of it. You’ll probably hear the part, actually, where we fixed that, but by then Bill was almost onto the readings. While we were able to recover what he said, there is a little static during that part of the podcast. We apologize for that! If you want to skip over Jake's apology for that mess-up, start listening at 1:34.)
