Vestry Report

The many blessings of welcoming the stranger

When the Guatemalan refugee family sponsored by Christ Church Cathedral first stepped off the plane, Mission Outreach Council Chair Susan Reedy said the family was only expecting to see a caseworker from Interfaith Ministries.

“They had no idea that they would have a sponsor team,” Reedy said. “They were overjoyed to see us at the airport, and they were so cute about it. They had smiles from ear to ear.

We had a big ‘Welcome to Houston’ banner and balloons and flowers and stuffed animals for the kids. They were just blown away.”

Reedy, who as the chair of the Mission

Outreach Council led the Cathedral initiative to sponsor a refugee family, also became the volunteer coordinator by default.

“The vetting process for volunteers is long and complicated, and so for the first few months, I was just getting everyone to understand the process and get through the training,” she said. “What has happened since last August is there has been such a flood of refugees coming in, resettlement agencies like Interfaith Ministries have been working to resettle people as quickly as possible. That’s why

Summer fellowship at the Cathedral This Summer Christ Church Cathedral is offering a variety of ways to connect with others and grow in faith together.

The Rev. Bradley Varnell, Canon Missioner for Community Life and Young Adult Ministry, says fellowship is vital in the life of the church and the Christian community.

“Lots of folks, lots of groups gather together for fun.

And that’s great. But I think, for a church, it’s important we know why, theologically, we do what we do. I’m a big believer that everything a church busies itself with should, in some way, point back to Christ — the only reason we’re here in the first place!!

So what does this mean for fellowship, friendships, and community? Well, throughout Scripture what you see is that God is always dealing with PEOPLE, not isolated individuals.

SUMMER FELLOWSHIP, page 8

As we move into summer, there is so much to be thankful for at the Cathedral.

Many friends have shared with me the joy of attending services and events in person and greeting old and new friends, in some cases for the first time in two years.

Lent was a special journey this year, with the Robert C. Stuart Lenten Series theme: “For the Splendor of the Whole Creation.” It combined inspiring messages with hands-on experi- GUY HAGSTETTE, SENIOR ences that taught and WARDEN entertained members of all ages. Congratulations to The Rev. Becky Zartman and the Adult Formation Council!

We paused to support the people of Ukraine in two vigils, one in March and one in April, which raised $35,707. The funds were sent to support Ukrainian refugees through three entities: Episcopal Relief and Development, Houston’s sister city of Leipzig, Germany, and the Joel Nafuma Refugee Center in Rome, which is led by Dean Thompson’s good friend and fellow priest the Rev. Austin Rios.

We then entered Holy Week on Palm Sunday. For me, it was so powerful to experience Maundy Thursday, Good Friday and the Great Easter Vigil services, which culminated in a full church on Easter. It truly was a resurrection in so many ways.

This year, Easter was quickly followed by May Fete on May 1, when the Cathedral community came together to worship and celebrate a tradition dating to the nineteenth century. Youth confirmation was just one week later and 14 young Episcopalians and two adults joined us as confirmed communicants of the Cathedral and future leaders of the Episcopal Church. Finally, we all are keeping Dean Thompson in our prayers as he recovers

from his back surgery in mid-May. Thompson plans to return to the Cathedral in midJune after following his doctor’s orders to allow a full month of rest for his back to heal.

It was a busy spring, but we aren’t slowing down. After the fifty days of Easter, we will mark Pentecost on June 5, as we also begin reading and discussing To The Lighthouse

by Virginia Woolf during Cathedral Reads.

There also will be more opportunities to catch up with friends during Summer Place each Sunday at 10 a.m. Personally, I am really looking forward to “Round-Up: A Walk Thru the Bible,” June 17-19. Meanwhile, the Mission Outreach Council will be meeting the refugee family we will be helping transition to life in our country while the Justice and Peace Council begins organizing us to help neighbors in need pay down their medical debt for only pennies on the dollar. And with our Astros perennially in contention for the World Series, we won’t want to miss Episcopal Night at the Ballpark, another great event organized

by The Rev. Bradley Varnell and the Community Life Council. Finally, I want to express best wishes to The Rev. Simón Bautista as he is away on a well-earned sabbatical mid-April through mid-July.

message, but your vestry, under the very able leadership of The Rev. Kathy Pfister and Bilinda Matusek as Chair of the Mission and Ministry Committee, has been hard at work facilitating the inspiring work of all of our councils. The vestry also is very thankful to all of you for pledging a record-breaking total to the Every Member Canvass, which makes our job of ensuring we have the resources to offer so much throughout the year much easier.

To that end, we celebrated a big victory when our Treasurer, Mike Bullington, joined Patrick Saccomanno and Karen Kraycirik in announcing our sale of state historic tax credits of over one million dollars earned from the “Sowing the Seed” campaign’s restoration of our historic buildings. Of course, these beautiful but old structures require the ongoing tender loving care of our Junior Warden Flo Ray and the entire Building and Grounds Committee. Whether it is solving sudden electrical surges, replacing aging boiler vents, sealing leaking pipes, or (God forbid) fixing malfunctioning air-conditioning, Flo, Karen and the entire committee are on top of it!

It is such a joy to share this incredible place with all of you. Please join me as we worship, serve, learn and enjoy everything the Cathedral has to offer over the coming summer months.

A Christian response to medical debt NAN MORRIS

Last month the Mission Outreach and Justice & Peace Councils announced their joint project to help alleviate medical debt. But why is this project so important? And what is our Christian response to this problem?

What is it and who needs help?

For those who like numbers, the US Census Bureau defines a high medical debt burden as debt that exceeds 20% of a household’s annual income. According to the Bureau, as of April 2021, 19% of U.S. households could not pay for medical care right away, and there was no difference in the share of households above and below the poverty threshold (19% in both groups). More than 1 in 4 households, with at least one member with a disability, had medical debt. Their report gives a number of other statistics and concludes saying “these estimates indicate that while fully insured households held less medical debt, they may still struggle to afford health care. was an important aspect of Jewish law. Its aim If you can’t pay your medical bill, several was to preserve a stable society and ensure things can happen.

This means individuals can locate debt in specific geographic areas and families, as well as the larger society, feel and, with donations like ours, buy medical debt the enormous knock-on effect. portfolios in bulk and retire them. The Bible A Christian Response also has something to say about the power of There are many layers to medical debt and small things, like mustard seeds.

Summer Place Summer Place offers parishioners a unique opportunity for fellowship, food and a chance to learn about our incredible array of Cathedral ministries. Each week, a different Cathedral council will host a special presentation in Reynolds Hall. Join us Sunday mornings, June 5 through August 14.

Cathedral councils serve a specialized area of ministry through organizing special events and helping to resolve and uplift parish needs. As Bilinda Matusek, vestry member and chair of the Mission and Ministry committee notes, the Councils are a special part of Cathedral ministry.

“The council system is unique and works especially well for the Cathedral. Each member serves a 3-year staggered term, and you’re able to develop leaders from within the community,” Matusek said.

Councils range from 5 to 15 members, with a leadership team at the core of the group. “I like to refer to them as the triumvirate” says Senior Warden Guy Hagstette. “Each council is led by the council chair, a Cathedral staff member and a member of the vestry.”

Summer Place offers the opportunity to highlight a different Cathedral council, learn about their work and connect with parishioners they may not always see each week. It offers attendees a chance to hear about Cathedral ministries, their accomplishments, and what they’re working toward for the upcoming year. “It also gives people the opportunity to explore and learn about our ministries in a safe and inviting way,” says Matusek. As some people may feel hesitant to approach someone directly about an area of interest,

not everyone has a sponsor.”

While the Cathedral had already been working with Interfaith Ministries to be matched with a family, the volunteers found out about their specific family just five days before they arrived. Reedy likened the experience to adopting a baby.

“You don’t know where they are going to come from,” she said.

While the initial intent of the Cathedral was to sponsor an Afghan family, the council told Interfaith Ministries that they wanted to sponsor whoever needed them. That turned out to be the family of four from Guatemala, part of an extended family, other members of which are being sponsored by Palmer Memorial Episcopal Church.

“That’s nice that the two families are together,” Reedy said. “We’re sponsoring one and Palmer is sponsoring the other.”

Reedy explains that there are different levels of sponsorship available, and the Cathedral wanted to provide assistance with welcoming the family by setting up their apartment and collecting the household items they would need.

“In those five days we gathered furniture donations, shopped for household supplies, and provided their first week of groceries,” she said.

“We gathered all that and moved it into their apartment and set it up so that it was ready for them.”

There were Spanish-speaking Cathedral volunteers in the welcome party, which helped with communication. Also helpful is the fact that the mother of the family, Maria, is fluent in English.

“We’ve had a very easy time understanding Houston is. It’s just a breath of fresh air to see each other,” Reedy said. people who are so excited to be here.”

SUMMER FELLOWSHIP, from cover

Even when God speaks to an individual person and tasks them with something, it’s for the sake of a larger group — the family, the tribe, the clan, the nation.

God is deeply, deeply concerned with communal relationships. The Good News of Christ is, in large part, the Good News that people who were separated have now been joined together — with God and with one another. When we gather for fellowship, when we invest in relationships, we are celebrating what God makes possible.

Further, the great hope Christians await is the “marriage feast of the lamb”, an Image taken from Revelation 19:7. And, basically, it’s this big party where the saints and angels celebrate with God that heaven and earth have come together. It’s the ultimate sign of God’s desire to be WITH humanity.

When we gather — whether it’s for book studies, baseball games, or just to hang out — ideally we are gathering to offer some kind of foretaste of that banquet, a little taste of what awaits us in heaven. Getting together is a theological imperative, because it lets us get a glimpse of the great party we’ve all been invited to, a party that won’t ever end.”
