The calamity to his household is examined. All activities are open to the public. dits and recommend improvements which can be done for no cost or at a low cost In addition, a range of educational and technical assistance is offered The Rev Herbert McQuin, pastor of Centenary Methodist Church and director of the program explained where businesses and individual homeowners get major tax credits for carrying out energy conservation programs, churches and nonprofit agencies get nothing because status. of their need more often Such institutions than busienergy help conserving nesses and homes. Churches and agencies pay out thousands of dollars each year for oil, gas, coal and electricity, when by enimplementing ergy conservation methods, they might save 20 to 40 percent of these the Rev. costs the first year, McQuin said, adding, Churches and agencies are often forced to cut back on their mission and service budgets to make increasingly higher utility payments. These cutbacks occur when the need for contributions to mission and service budgets are great. Churches and agencies who participate begin with a walk through audit of their building. The Rev. McQuin, who has masters degrees in divinity and in urban planning non-prof- it and policy development from Princeton and Rutgers universities, respectively, brings two expert volunteers with him. They spend about two hours surveying everything related to energy in the building. The trio is accompanied by a representative of the church or agency, who is asked to furnish information such as energy costs. The Rev. McQuin said air leaks and building cracks, as well as sometimes major furnace and ventilation deficencies are discovered and pointed out. Later he submits a full written report to the church or agency detailing both strengths and weaknesses of the heating system and building envelope, and he suggests improvements to lower costs in the present and future. It is up to the church or agency to decide whether to go ahead with the recommendations. If the decision is made to go ahead with the improvements, the church or agency can do the work , hire a contractor or have the UECEMP find volunteers to do the job free of charge. The church or agency usually pays for only the materials, and is asked to provide a supervisor and possibly volunteers. Audits have been completed thus far in 16 Salt Lake City area churches and agencies and seven more in Ogden, with specific work projects imphmented in nine. The work has included caulking, weather stripping, adding storm windows, and installing a clock timer to turn on furnaces as they are needed.

The Rev. often in small towns there are only one or two churches in a community to attend. It his early teens he became disenchanted with the church and for a period in his life, he was an agnostic. However, while he was in Jesus Freak high school the movement swept the nation and he became involved in a Bible study group. A former Church of Christ minister led to his involvement in the charismatic movement for a time, until the emphasis of that particular group shifted from Jesus to "a spiritual battlefield between Satan and the Holy Spirit. H:s interests then focused on the Presbyterian Church My parents were opened minded enough to accept my explorations and my decision to become a Presbyterian," he said My parents were very supportive of me when I went into the ministry. "As I became more involved in "The church is one, whether we like it or not," the Rev Groves said "The difference is mainly a difference of style, and that shojld not be lost."

The audits will continue through the summer. 501-C-- ... by My Spirit NEW SUMMER SCHEDULE while other churches are having board meetings to decide on a course of action. The Rev. McQuin considers the program to be deeply rooted in the n understanding of stewardship. He adds It is in line with the mandate of most major world religious bodies to conserve the earths limited resources which are a gift from God. fX?rrw Mountain View Ghpis&ian was selected to the National i 1 the Rev. Groves said. The Rev. Groves describes his church background as being the great American religious smorgasbord. His parents were orgin-all- y from Texas, where they belonged to the Methodist Church. When the family moved to Montana, they began attending the Congregational Church. From Billings the family moved to Grable, W'yo., where they tried the Presbyterian Church and later an American Baptist Church. From there, the family moved to Powell, Wyo., where they joined a Southern Baptist Church. The Rev. Powell said An Ogden church has decided to set up its own passive solar energy, and outdoor track and cross country. When he was 17, he was signed to the Cubs and played in the minor leagues for nine years, hitting .300 or better in six of those seasons and team. During those Leagues all-styears he played soccer to earn a living in the Chicago Soccer League for four seasons. When his baseball career was over, he turned to professional golf, and was a country club pro for 14 years in Minnesota and South Dakota. He competed in state and regiontournaments. al While a golf pro, he became a squash professional in Minneapolis during the winter months. In 1963, he decided to enter the ministry, spending five years preparing for ordination, and in 1968 he became an American Lutheran minister. Since then, he has been preaching the Gospel to churches, clubs and schools from coast to coast. In 1973, the Rev. Rasmussen and his wife formed the Full Life Minisevangelitry, a cal outreach of preaching, singing and teaching. The public is invited to the the FreshWenan Church I got to know mv-el- f better and discov- ered had certain talents and gifts given me by God which could be used in a ministry." he added He decided on the ministry between his junior and seniui years in college There have been times since in which he has had a faith crisis, but God always drags me back " He attended the University of Montana at Missoula, where he began by majoring in psychology, but switched his major to religious studies After graduation, he went to San Francisco Theological Seminars where he was graduated with a masters of divinity in 1982 While he was attending seminary. he served as an intern in a Presbyterian Church of 500 members in southern Kansas His first calling was to the church in Otis, Colo Because of his varied church background, the Rev Groves said he believes in ecumemcalism to the extent of cooperation between churches, but not to the point of tearing down traditions to become one body He likened the churches to the United States, explaining the states can be unified without being non-prof- it Judeo-Christia- Ex-Bi- By Melinda Sowerby Tribune Church Editor The Rev James A Groves said he grew up feeling like he belonged to the Salt Lake area and now as assistant pastor of Wasatch Presbyterian Church, 1626 S. 1700 East, he feels very much at home. "It literally was like God picked me up and put me here," the Rev. Groves said, explaining it normally takes up to a year for a Presbyterian minister to relocate. But two months after he sent his dossier into the national office he found Wasatch Church was looking for an assistant pastor. As soon as I saw the listing, I said that's where I should go. From that point things happened which to me were signs God was involved, he said. He was named assistant pastor one month after he talked to the Wasatch Church He said the members of the pastoral search committee, the theological stance of the church and Salt Lake City were three of the reasons he chose Wasatch Presbyterian. He was born in Billings, Mont., but grew up in northwest Wyoming He came to Wasatch Presbyterian Church from a rural church of 80 members in Otis, Colo.
