Delight in Serving

AllSaints’ • Pentecost III, 2013

Letter from the Rector Dear Saints, The next two months will bring several celebrations, including our feast day of All Saints Sunday and Thanksgiving Day. We will enjoy each other’s company during two more Sunday pancake breakfasts and a potluck luncheon.

We will also rejoice with students and faculty of York and All Saints’ Schools on Episcopal Schools Sunday.

I’m pleased to offer in these pages a teaching on Delight in Serving. You are likely to find that article more edifying if you first read the fourth chapter of the First Letter of John. This magazine also includes many applications and examples of our delight in serving, including a unique teaching on giving based on our theme of delight.

Noteworthy are several saints featured in this edition. Of course, we could equally include many others people, but space is limited. So I invite you to image writing an article about another member.

Whom would you choose? How does that person communicate faith, love, and hope? What would you write about yourself? What brings you delight as you serve others? When the next history of All Saints’ is written many years from now, how would you most like to be remembered?

Gospel Themes in this series October 6 Delight in Serving Others October 13 Delight in Serving with Gratitude October 22 Delight in Welcoming the Stranger October 27 Delight in Serving with Humilty November 3 Delight in Serving as Saints November 10 Delight in Serving as Children of the Resurection November 17 Delight in Serving in the Name of Jesus November 24 Delight in Serving to Remember

If you would like to take on such a writing assignment, please let us know! Meanwhile, join me in exercising delight by serving, by giving, and by joining in our several occasions of celebration.

Let us show forth our delight with abandon!

Emma Buchanan

Emma’s stewardship

with All Saints’ Church

has evolved over the past year in the form of volunteering and at the church nursery.

Emma started helping in the nursery at All Saints’ this past month, volunteering with the youth in the nursery. Her work came about as a result of conversations we had about the value of volunteering in the community.

We talked about the meaning of serving and different volunteer opportunities that exist in the community. Emma has grown up being exposed to serving through her school and YMCA programs, but she voiced wanting to find a volunteer opportunity for herself over the summer.

We talked briefly about places to volunteer.

Emma wanted to volunteer at a place she likes to be, the volunteer work to be fun and make a difference. For Emma that means working with young children. Emma enjoys serving at the nursery at All Saints’ because she “likes working with younger kids and it feels good to give back.” Emma loves working with the children in the nursery, especially helping them with craft projects or reading to them.

Izzi Shillinglaw If you have been a regular at Santa Lucia Campgrounds since 1984, you know Izzi. She was the camp registrar for thirty years, taking over from Pat McEldowney.

That was in the days of no answering machines, so people had to actually talk to someone if they wanted to make arrangements to use the campground.

Izzi didn’t grow up a regular church-goer, but Jim was and after having two children, Susan and Bruce, attending church became more of a priority. However, it was only after she and her Bible class teacher found themselves the only ones to show for a class during a bad storm that she was put on the spot regarding her Christian commitment. When the teacher pointedly asked Izzi if she had ever made a conscious effort to have a personal relationship with Christ, Izzi said no and the woman said well, there’s no time like the present.

Izzi taught Sunday School at All Saints’ during their first time here in the early 70’s and also in Virginia, where Jim was transferred in 1973.

Upon their return to Carmel in 1977, Izzi began a long quarter century stint as a Sunday School teacher.

Every ministry Izzi has been involved in: teaching, coffee hour hostess, greeter, office volunteer, camp registrar, has involved interfacing with other people, which she loves, but it was an experience in intercessory prayer in Virginia that became the most blessed time in her life. For three years, five days a week, she and her prayer partner joined together over the phone to pray for others. That experience, along with the excellent Bible study programs we have at All Saints’, helped her continue to grow as a Christian.

Yoriko Hongo I’ve known about All Saints’ since the 2007 Carmel Bach Festival and since then I’ve been worshiping and part of the chancel choir.

My youngest child is an especially talented and beautiful young woman, but the last few years have been very challenging while guiding her through her teenage years. All the while, All Saints’ has been tremendous support. I am extremely thankful for the kindness and thoughtfulness I receive from my church family.

Recently I brought my brand new granddaughter, Iris, to church with me. It was a day to remember. It was a rare sunny Sunday morning in Carmel and so many things that touched me: The friendly faces, and welcoming voices; the multicultural congregation, and a humorous sermon; the anthem was a familiar hymn, and the birthday blessing Iris and I received from Father Rick celebrating her coming into this world touched me most of all.

I am touched to be assured that we are God’s children who are protected and blessed at all times.

Devoting yourself to learn more about God’s Word is the easiest way to prepare yourself for the challenges of this life. It is also the way we prepare ourselves to be of service to God. Come join us for the Wednesday morning Bible study from 10:30-11:45 a.m. in Grant Hall. The current series is a chronological harmony of the Gospels.

Cynthia Franklin Cynthia Franklin, an honorary member of the altar guild. helps out Sunday mornings when she is able to attend.

She is a mentor to our active members, a keeper of many traditions, and a resource for creative solutions to problems. Her ministry exemplifies a delight in serving Christ and others, which you can hear in her following words. Her joy is contagious, which is all for the good, because we need additional volunteers. Remember that this ministry is open to both men and women. A parent and child could also work together. The commitment is typically once a month. - Fr. Rick We celebrate the miracle of the bread and wine becoming Christ’s body and blood. The altar guild, by preparing the altar, creates a holy place for this to happen. What a joy it has been to be a part of this. There are many things we do to prepare ahead for the altar, but setting God’s table is the greatest and most sacred of all.

Through sixty-six years (I started when I was sixteen), six states, and fifteen churches, I have always loved being involved with the altar guild. I have found that no matter where you live, when serving on the altar guild and doing God’s work, you always develop a deep spiritual and lasting bond with the other members.

The altar guild supports the priest by setting the altar for each service. We mark the readings for the service, set out the priest’s vestments, and remove the settings after the service and set up for the next service.

Being on the altar guild has been a very special part of my life and my relationship with God and his Son Jesus.

Delight in Serving

by The Rev. Rick Matters

The overarching Gospel message for the next two months is Delight in Serving. This theme unites our intentions with our actions. It speaks of a certain harmony or balance between loving God and neighbor, and reminds us how we are to serve others. Echoing Paul’s hymn of love in 1 Corinthians 13, if we are filled with delight but do not put our love into action, we are a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal, and if we serve others without loving them, we are nothing.

Delight involves tenderness, joy, and love. It expresses our intention of honoring another. The common Greek word for love in the New Testament is agape. This word is often translated as delight, for delight expresses love.

Our challenge comes from the fact that love means so many things to so many different people. Trying to communicate love keeps poets and songwriters busy, but their many different messages add to our confusion. I find this same confusion among some of the couples whom I prepare for holy matrimony.

Yet despite the many definitions of love in our culture, God clearly defines love for us through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

The Bible offers many examples of the love of God revealed through Jesus. We find one such teaching in 1 John 4. Here we learn that love is from God, and that the one who loves is born of God and knows God. John concludes that God is love. The contour of love is this: God sending his only Son into the world so that we might live through him.

God’s delight is to give us life through the selfgiving of the cross and the joyful victory of Jesus’ resurrection.

6

The delight of self-giving shows that our emotions alone cannot direct us to love. While we might seek to satisfy our own desires in the name of love, God so loved the world that he gave what was most precious to him: his Son. The story of Jesus does more than teach us what love is. Rather, we know love because God first loves us. That is, we know what love is because we experience being loved. John says,“By this we know that we abide in him and he in us, because he has given us of his Spirit...God abides in those who confess that Jesus is the Son of God, and they abide in God. So we have known and believe the love that God has for us.”

John equally reminds us that being in love means more than simply experiencing delight. We are called to act like we are in love. If we do not translate delight into actions, there is no genuine love. John puts it this way, “Beloved, since God loved us so much, we also ought to love one another. No one has ever seen God; if we love one another, God lives in us, and his love is perfected in us.” We can only love humankind by loving one person at a time. The reverse makes this even more clear: if I hate individuals I am not really loving humankind. As John expresses this truth poignantly, “Those who say, ‘I love God’, and hate their brothers or sisters, are liars; for those who do not love a brother or sister whom they have seen, cannot love God whom they have not seen. The commandment we have from him is this: those who love God must love their brothers and sisters also.”

Many people who are motivated by a cause place that cause above caring for people. They are in danger of losing delight and becoming abrasive.

WWW.ALLSAINTSCARMEL.ORG

AllSaints’ • Pentecost III, 2013 The beauty of the cross consists in the fact that Jesus remained true to the delight of love, even to the point of death.

We delight in serving by putting love into action.

The delight comes from our intention of giving glory to God by serving others. When we put love into action, the Spirit works in us and through us. Our delight is not only to meet Jesus in our interaction with others. As we put love into action in the name of Jesus Christ, we represent Christ, and we thus participate in him. We delight in making him known and we simultaneously encounter him.

The recent Festival of Christian Spirituality began by welcoming people as if they were Jesus Christ himself. Following the Benedictine tradition, we welcomed each participant by washing their hands as we listened to these words from the Rule of St. Benedict, Chapter 53; Let all guests who arrive be received like Christ, for He is going to say, “I came as a guest, and you received Me” (Matt. 25:35).

And to all let due honor be shown, especially to the domestics of the faith and to pilgrims.

As soon as a guest is announced, therefore, let the Superior or the brethren meet him with all charitable service.

The Long and Winding Road of Discipleship

by Louis Powell

Hopefully it will not surprise you that I brush my teeth a couple times daily. Avid brusher of teeth that I have always been, daily flossing was a habit that eluded me. Then I tried a dental floss that was different. It felt good on my teeth, and I looked forward each morning to flossing. The next thing I know, after 40 years of good brushing, I am also a daily flosser! I literally needed only to find the right floss for me. You may wonder what dental hygiene has to do with discipleship.

Seeking God is always a journey. God does not change, but our need and ability to see God does.

Often the road doubles back. St Benedict wrote, “Always we begin again.” Knowing that the father of monasticism at times had to pick himself up by the spiritual bootstraps helps me to feel I am in good company when I have to do the same.

than you were or better than other people, just that you want to try to accept and to share the love of God. Since Baptism is often administered to children, Confirmation is a way for us to make an adult “confirmation” of this commitment. And you get a special blessing from the Bishop, so that’s cool.

Communion is one of those things that can sneak up on you. One day it is just a ritual, the next day it can speak to you more deeply than anything.

Communion takes on a greater meaning when it is a regular habit, like every week.

Like Communion, prayer is most meaningful when done regularly. It does not have to be elaborate or long, just honest. The Book of Common Prayer is full of beautifully worded prayers, if you want help with articulating your thoughts. Praying the Psalms is another option. Personally, I like to do Morning Prayer with an app on my phone. Prayers before a meal or before bed are short and sweet, giving thanks to God. Study can be reading the Bible or spiritual texts.

It can also be learning about the saints, attending talks, watching movies or participating in spiritual discussions.

On your path of discipleship, you are never alone. God is with you, always calling you, wanting to be found. The Church (not the institution, but the people) is there with you equally imperfect, seeking God, and experimenting just like you and me with different kinds of floss.

So what are the bootstraps of discipleship?

Fortunately, millennia of Christians trying over and over to find God and to be disciples have developed tools for our journey. You can try them all. Some need to become habit before you really see the impact, some may be just the right spiritual floss you’ve been looking for. Spiritual direction can be a great help in getting started.

These tools can be divided into three groups: Sacraments, Prayer and Worship, and Study.

There are seven Sacraments, but there are three in particular that fit discipleship -- Baptism, Confirmation, and Communion. Baptism and Confirmation are ways to dedicate your life to discipleship. This does not mean you will be better 8

Community Discipleship

by Greg Troxell

While most enjoy coffee hour or the reception after evensong, I am encouraged when I hear stories and see families and friends getting together and enjoying fellowship beyond Sunday. I’ve heard members talking about the fun they’ve had with other members at beach parties, winetasting, lunch, dinners at one another’s homes, and even shopping.

While I hope to see more friendships blossom, we also aim to be a catalyst by organizing events that help you build meaningful relationships. Check out the calendar on pages 22-23 to see what’s coming up. Here are a few events to place on your calendar: • Healthy Saints’ Hike at the Santa Lucia Preserve on October 26 • Youth Beach Party on October 20 • The Feast of All Saints’ • Thanksgiving Potluck on November 28

We are blessed to have so many adults who are able to provide solid Bible teaching, discipleship, and mentoring. The goal, be it for our children or for ourselves, is to be disciples who make disciples.

Have you found yourself unable to respond to others’ questions about your faith or the church?

Have you been struggling with the feelings or confusing thoughts about your own faith? Perhaps its time to take advantage of one of the classes and get yourself some basic training, thus better preparing your mind and soul for life’s challenges.

Here are some of the current offerings: • Sunday morning class with Father Rick • Wednesday morning class with Greg Troxell • The Friends of St. Benedict with Bill Reed • Mothers’ covenant group with Wanda Green • Conversatio in the Chapel

Stewardship Outreach

by Greg Troxell

We have a biblical mandate to make financial offerings and also give of ourselves in relationship with others with our time and talents. Stewardship is an outward sign of our new nature, one that is fully devoted to God and His purposes.

There are three Greek words in the Bible related to stewardship. These are: oikonomia (administration, management, stewardship) found in: Luke 16:2-4; 1Cor 9:17; Eph. 1:10; Eph 3:2, 9; Col. 1:25; epitropos (curator, manager of a household or of lands) found in: Matt. 20:8; Luke 8:3; Gal. 4:2; and oikonomos (a steward, a freed-man or a slave of what God or others give us or we are trusted with) found in: Luke 12:42; Luke 16:1, 3,8; Rom. 16:23; 1Cor 4:1-2 Gal. 4:2; Tit. 1:7.

These passages clearly indicate that stewardship is a reflection of our spiritual condition and our relationship to God - as the creator, preserver, and Lord of our lives. As we mature spiritually, our alignment to God’s will increases, and we are more easily able to give sacrificially, overcoming our fear, doubt, and unforgiveness.

Understanding this metamorphosis, Helen Lemmel penned the words to a simple chorus to encourage people to embrace the inward transformation: “Turn your eyes upon Jesus, Look full in His wonderful face, And the things of earth will grow strangely dim, In the light of His glory and grace.”

History of All Saints’

Santa Lucia Mission and Campgrounds

Part Two

by Elizabeth Barratt, parish archivist/historian By the late 1970s, scheduled activities were fewer in number at the Santa Lucia Mission and Campground, but the annual parish pilgrimage and picnic was always well attended.

In 1982 a new caretaker, Paul Shames, moved into a 28-foot trailer on the premises. The December 1982 Patter noted, “The 6-acre space along the Big Sur River is becoming again a proper place for church services, church picnics and overnight camping.” Parishioners pitched in to help clean the grounds, rebuild old fire pits and haul trash.

Summer activities included the sixth grade class from All Saints’ Day School, who camped overnight in May; then for the Fourth of July, forty parish families came down to enjoy the day swimming and barbecuing in the newly rebuilt fire pits.

A bulldozing and grading project doubled the available camping spaces. The parish again turned out to build additional picnic tables, clean out scraggly brush, and spray for poison oak.

A milestone event occurred in September 1984 when the Patter announced, “Small Big Sur parcel leased to Hospital for Health Center. A local group, the Big Sur Health Center has worked with the Monterey Peninsula Hospital to operate a health facility in the Grange Hall. The hospital gave the center two modular housing units to place on the land.”

A special occasion occurred on August 7, 1993, when Fr. Dun celebrated the 50th anniversary of his ordination. Eldon Dedini had painted a special picture of him in his clerical collar and a voice coming out of the clouds saying, “Angus I am well pleased.” After Fr. Angus died, the Rev. Melissa Newlin conducted Sunday services at the chapel during the summer months for several years.

According to Fr. Carl Hansen, the campground was rented by a variety of churches and non-profit groups throughout the year. Special occasions always continued, such as the All Saints’ annual Picnic and Day School campouts. Church groups were free to use the chapel on Sundays and Episcopal churches from all over the diocese utilized the campgound on an annual basis, as did family groups introduced to the site through their church.

With the arrival of Fr. Rick Matters as rector of All Saints’, efforts were made to restart services at Santa Lucia Chapel. In the summer of 2013, following renovation of the caretaker’s cottage, the Rev. Cynthia Spencer was appointed as missioner.

Regular Sunday services are now conducted at 11:00 a.m. Thanks to the All Saints’ spirit, a renewed effort is now in place to re-establish the mission for the Big Sur Community.

Over the years, the campground had three full time caretakers. Kip McGervey, who worked at the campground for several years, followed Paul Shames. The third caretaker, Duane Fissell, served for about nine or ten years.

The campgrounds were again revitalized during the tenure of Fr Carl Hansen. Fr. Angus and Meryl Dun reopened the Lucia Mission, spending two summers camped by the Big Sur River along with their two Labradors. Services were held each Sunday from Memorial Day to Labor Day, plus once monthly during winter, each followed by a potluck.

By Robin Denney

When I began work as the Youth Director at All Saints’ two years ago, it was the hope that when it was time for me to go to seminary, the church would be ready to transition from just youth ministry to ministry for the whole family. I’m excited to say that we have begun the visioning process for just such a shift! I will be going away to seminary next year, and will be spending the next few months with the help of parishioners and families in our church, school, and community, to vision the direction our new family ministry will take, and who will participate in making it a reality.

It is our goal that the new family ministry will enable the following: • That our children and families be transformed by their faith • That our children and families feel loved and supported by the All Saints’ community • That our children be supported by the All Saints’ community in becoming faithful, productive adults.

We will begin with conversations with families to identify their priority concerns, and then move into group meetings where participants will brainstorm and commit resources (time talent and money) to the ministry and further define its start up priorities and direction.

This visioning process is part of a larger shift toward a member-led culture at All Saints’. Members will lead and participate throughout the meeting and visioning process. One possible desired outcome would be the hiring of an associate clergy member to coordinate family ministry next year, however the work of that person would be in supporting and coordinating the volunteers who will be leading the various initiatives of the ministry.

Please pray for this visioning process, and contact the office if you would like to be a part of the meetings, if you would like to help gather information and support by initiating meeting with others, or if you have time talent or money you would like to contribute to family ministries.

Five Strategic Responses

by The Rev. Rick Matters

As we glorify Christ and serve others we give thanks for our members and the many ministries we undertake. We also listen to God and to each other, in order to adjust our course and to take thoughtful next steps. At the end of June 2013, the congregation shared dreams and hopes. The executive staff, strategic planning committee, and vestry offer the follow strategic steps that respond to many of the topics presented in June.

Member-Led Culture Members teach, mentor, and lead various ministries, with staff helping members discern areas of ministry and providing training. As members become inspired to start a ministry or organize an event, the staff and vestry will support them. Review five missions and our organization to focus better on our purpose and our strengths.

Family Ministries Hold conversations with families about family ministries. Start “Mommy and Me” support group this fall.

Expand ministries to families, and hire a family ministry leader by expanding the youth leader position after Robin Denney leaves for seminary next June.

Excellence in Liturgy by Expanding Balance of Offerings with a Contemporary Eucharist Offer weekly contemporary family-oriented service (not on Sunday) at All Saints’ Day School by Easter, 2014.

Weekly Hospitality and Engagement Offer hospitality, starting with Sunday morning pancake breakfasts with forums or classes from 9:00 to 10:00 a.m.

Re-start newcomer receptions or dinners.

Master Plan for the Campus for Our Community and Ministries in the Twenty-First Century Hold conversations about buildings and grounds that better welcome and serve our mission and ministries.

Create a master plan and begin to raise funds by project as needed.

Delight in Giving

by The Rev. Rick Matters

As the discerning reader will have noted, the organizing theme for October and November at All Saints’ is Delight in Serving. God delights in serving us each day in countless ways. In response to God’s gracious and mysterious service, we orient our lives to serving with delight.

As people of faith we are most properly motivated by delight, because God makes such a wonderful difference in our lives. The Gospel proclaims that God lavishes us with blessings, privileges, and responsibilities. On the other hand, delight can be submerged under a swirling flood of busyness, and it can even be washed ashore and left to dry in the sun by guilt or shame.

God delights within the Trinity, and God delights in you. God delights in who you are, and in who you will become. God delights in giving us life and in dwelling in our hearts and minds. God delights in creating us into the community of hope called the Church.

Christ came to dwell among us in order for us to share in God’s delight. The tender stories of Advent, Christmas, and Epiphany speak of wonder and delight. The journey of Lent, the victory of Easter, and the joy of Pentecost carry forward both the delight of God, and our response of delight.

We might consider the Christian faith as the way of ordering our lives around delight, which is an appropriate response to God’s abounding delight. So how do we integrate delight into our lives, and how do we increase our experience of delight?

We might begin by reading the Song of Solomon as a love letter from God to us. Another step is to intentionally choose delight over busyness, obligation, and shame. In some ways, delight is also a skill to be cultivated through repetition and practice. The more we practice responding with delight, the more we will experience it. Happily, delight is also contagious, both within ourselves, and between us and others. The more delight there is in our lives, the more delight will grow in and around us.

2014 Pledge Campaign

Our generous pledges and donations help us acknowledge and accept God’s delight. At the same time that our gifts to All Saints’ express our thanks, they also engender delight in our own hearts and minds. I wish for you the delight of being open to God’s delightful presence, and the best way of opening our souls is to respond in kind to God’s many blessings.

The Bible teaches us to tithe. The basis of tithing is to give a certain percentage to God first, in order to acknowledge that all we have is a gift from God. Those who tithe are more likely to spend the remainder of their financial resources from the perspective of God’s delight in giving.

Andrea’s Grandma Moon was born in 1905 and lived through the Great Depression. She was taught as a young child to put God first. Her pattern was to take the bus to town with her monthly check in hand and stop first at the bank. She would place ten percent of her income into an envelope marked “Church,” and would then make a circuit around town, stopping to pay her bills at the telephone company, power company, and so on. The remainder of her money was for food, other necessities, and luxuries. She enjoyed such abundance on her meager fixed income that there was always an extra twenty dollar bill at the end of each month. She would drop a crisp twenty into the bottom drawer of her dresser. I have little doubt that she closed the drawer with a prayer of thanksgiving and a feeling of delight. When Grandma Moon died, we found a drawer loaded with twenties!

The biblical norm for the tithe is ten percent.

Andrea and I started orienting our finances around God’s delight many years ago, with a much smaller percentage. Now we give more than ten percent, and in doing so we experience much joy and delight.

All Saints’ always takes priority in our giving, even though we do give to other organizations as well.

Please use the table in this magazine to calculate what percentage you are giving this year, and then ask yourself whether you might be able to stretch toward God’s delight in giving by increasing that percentage.

for Relationships

By Bill Reed Saint Paul reminds us that “it is more blessed to give than to receive.” This is certainly one of the laws of love. It is also a kind of blueprint for relationships – relationships of every kind, from the casual to the serious. This is another way of talking about service in a relationship, the service that brings delight. We serve others in many ways, but if that service is not a form of self giving, it is not Christian love. “And though I give all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing” (1 Cor 13:3).

Loving service must be a form of self-giving, a giving of the whole self to the other, even if it involves sacrifice. And reciprocation is altogether important to complete the cycle of love. Though it may be more blessed to give, it is also very blessed to receive. We must accept the gift of self from another, as well as be ready to give. A giver must be a receiver too, and a receiver a giver. This is how a relationship comes to fulfillment and involves a complete service from each person. The delight that comes from such a relationship has no better form on earth. It is the greatest human happiness, precisely because it mirrors the love of the Trinitarian God.

Mission Olive Oil is harvested exclusively from the orchard at the Soledad Mission.

The grove was planted from the cuttings of two hundred year old trees that were once part of Mission La Purisima Concepcion in Lompac. In the tradition of the padres, Mission Olive oil also supplies the sacramental ambry oil for the Catholic Diocese of Monterey.

The blueprint for relationships is embedded in God Himself, in His mutual self giving and receiving. Jesus prays for us the Holy Spirit from the Father, “that the love with which You loved me may be in them”(John 17:26a). This is the gift of liberating delight, that moves us to an authentic service of self giving and receiving. On this axis the whole of creation turns.

What the World Needs Now

by Greg Troxell

Jesus Christ, while fulfilling the promise of a Messiah and King, perfectly modeled the life of a servant.

Matthew 20:28 “Just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”

Throughout the scriptures we are called to such a lifestyle. How we do this is best realized by considering first the common condition of humanity. We are all in need of God’s grace, forgiveness and strength. We all have something to offer and ways in which we can both give and receive.

Many find it hard to receive when in need, but this is the essence of humility and is an essential condition at the core of one’s ability to be a servant. Godly humility is gained not by ridicule or diminishment of one’s self, but by the understanding of the grandeur of God and the embrace of his unconditional love and desire to engage you in his mission of reaching the world

Philippians 2:4-7 “Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others. Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped, but made himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant.”

Galatians 5:13 “...Serve one another in love.”

II Timothy 1:3 “I thank God, whom I serve, as my forefathers did, with a clear conscience, as night and day I constantly remember you in my prayers.”

WWW.ALLSAINTSCARMEL.ORG

with the Gospel message and with healing touch.

I’m reminded of the lyrics, “What the world needs now, is love, sweet love.” Who is it that is in your heart? Which of your neighbors needs a helping hand? Of all the neglected and injured people around the world, what situation causes you to weep and pray? Do you have those folks in mind? Good, now how can you utilize the gifts you have been given and the knowledge and talents you’ve developed to help others.

Bonus: What might these people be able to offer you? What might you receive from them?

Do you have a story of you own to tell? We’d like to hear it and even share it on the church website.

Joshua 24:15 “But if serving the Lord seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your forefathers served beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.”

I Peter 4:10-11 “Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God’s grace in its various forms. If anyone speaks, he should do it as one speaking the very words of God. If anyone serves, he should do it with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Christ Jesus.

Serving with Humility

By Robin Denney

We all know that Jesus called us to love and to serve. Jesus’ description of judgment in Matthew 25, is one that we often fixate on when thinking of how we should serve: “I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you gave me clothing, I was sick and you took care of me, I was in prison and you visited me.”

We understand from this passage that in serving “the least of these,” we are serving Christ himself.

18

Is it possible however that we could harm when we intend to help? Is it possible that the attitude of our hearts and the process of our actions could lead us to disempower, belittle, or even humiliate those we serve?

The answer, sadly, is yes. Christian charity has in many places created feelings of helplessness or worthlessness as well as cycles of dependency among the “least of these.” I’ve seen it when traveling among poor communities in the United States, Latin America and Africa. I’ve seen people so tired of, and yet so dependent upon aide from paternalistic donors, that they lash out in anger, to the shock and disapproval of donors who expect their docile and lavish thanks.

WWW.ALLSAINTSCARMEL.ORG

AllSaints’ • Pentecost III, 2013 So how do we stop ourselves from following down that path of hurt? How do we follow Jesus’ call to serve?

The key is understanding Jesus’ call to serve in Matthew 25, though the lens of Maundy Thursday.

Jesus told his disciples that in order to be first they must be last. Then he stripped off his cloak, and he wrapped a towel around himself, and he washed their feet. Jesus made himself vulnerable, he humbled, even humiliated himself before them, he set aside his power and his position amongst them, he called them friends, and then he washed their smelly feet as though he were a slave. And that was just the beginning of the humiliation he bore that night and the next day, for them and for us.

Jesus gives us the example of how he means us to serve. We are to shed our power or control, we are to become vulnerable, we are to take up humility in our hearts, and to willingly accept humiliation when it comes. We shed power when we engage someone in honest, listening conversation no longer able to see them as “the least of these.”

One thing I have noticed in my cross-cultural experiences and training is that well-off, white, educated people tend to speak louder and more often than everyone else, and by dominating the conversation, control its conclusions. Those dominating the conversation wonder why the others didn’t speak up, and those who didn’t speak often feel disenfranchised. I think that a step toward vulnerability would be intentional listening or silence, and not trying to generate, control, or fix the outcome. Intentional vulnerability is not something I’m advocating for all human interactions, but rather specifically for the interaction of serving others, and building bonds with people across divisions of perceived difference.

It is so critically important because of the immense harm that can be done in serving others if we maintain our distance and power.

In our baptismal covenant which we renew each time we witness a baptism, we make five promises the last two of which affirm our calling to serve: Will you seek and serve Christ in all persons, loving your neighbor as yourself? I will, with God’s help.

Will you strive for justice and peace among all people, and respect the dignity of every human being? I will, with God’s help.

WWW.ALLSAINTSCARMEL.ORG

Loving and serving go together! We are serving not the “least of these”, we are serving Christ himself, present in each person we meet. And each person carries that dignity of being a beloved child of God made in God’s own image. Each person deserves our respect of their dignity; each person deserves justice and peace.

With these lofty promises and our fix-it mindset we inherit from American culture, we might jump to the conclusion that we had better get out there and start doing the work we are called to do right now!

But there is one more thing to consider: I will, with God’s help.

It is only with God’s help that we can proceed. It is only with God’s help that we can hope to stay off that serving path that leads to hurt, and stay on Christ’s path, which leads to life and joy along with a dose of humiliation. If we stay close to God in prayer, though the study of scripture and participation in Christian community, Jesus will lead us.

I leave you with this prayer by Thomas Merton: The Road Ahead of Me My Lord God, I have no idea where I am going.

I do not see the road ahead of me.

I cannot know for certain where it will end.

Nor do I really know myself, and the fact that I think that I am following your will does not mean that I am actually doing so.

But I believe that the desire to please you does in fact please you. And I hope I have that desire in all that I am doing. I hope that I will never do anything apart from that desire. And I know that if I do this, you will lead me by the right road though I may know nothing about it.

Therefore will I trust you always though I may seem to be lost and in the shadow of death.

I will not fear, for you are ever with me, and you will never leave me to face my perils alone.

After Listening to our Members

by The Rev. Rick Matters

On page 14 you read about Five Strategic Responses that will be rolled out in 2014. The list was refined after listening to the comments and suggestions offered by parishioners in recent months in conversations, emails and at events such as the Ice Cream Sunday. The following ideas were organized into five groups: Member-led culture • More office volunteers are needed • Form a twenty-to-thirty-year-old singles group • Provide activities for older singles • Form a Saturday men’s group (pancakes, gardening) • Form a men’s prayer breakfast on weekday mornings before work • Form a Cursillo group on the Peninsula, and start a reunion group • People should take advantage of the excellent Bible study groups • Choir members can’t go to Bible studies—make meetings after church • Offer more outside-working-hour activities • The Center for Christian Transformation should have more events, such as courses in Benedictine spirituality

AllSaints’ • Pentecost III, 2013 Family ministries • Explore changing the Godly Play curriculum; no one is happy with it • Emphasize children’s Christian education, and get parents’ buy-in • We all need to continue our religious education, children and adults alike • All Saints’ Day School is a good place to recruit new children

Excellence in liturgy • When the children’s choir sings, make the service more contemporary and family-oriented • Publicize our Evensong services better; not having a Eucharist might appeal to some • Provide a contemporary service once a month • Provide Morning Prayer once a month for the Liturgy of the Word Weekly hospitality and engagement • Restart the welcoming ministry, for example, each Sunday have two members at the table • Welcoming has been impressive • Add titles to name tags, such as “Vestry member,” “Youth Leader,” etc.

• Provide name tags for visitors • Plan a special Sunday welcoming for newcomers • Serve breakfast at 9:15, between services, once a month to tie the two services together.

Master Plan for the Campus for Our Community & Ministries in the Twenty-First Century • Change the structure of our buildings to be more attractive and practical • Return to the project of building an elevator/ access from one level of the campus to another • Build a lift outside the Seccombe Hall door on Ninth Street • Stage in Seccombe Hall needs to be refurbished

Parishioner Beth Lefebvre is again offering a series of Christian yoga classes, on Wednesdays starting at 6:30 p.m. in Seccombe Hall.

October 16 through December 11.

Both first-time explorers and long-time practitioners are invited.

Simply come.
