“After the long shutdown of our federal government that left thousands in our city uncertain about where their next meal would come from and whether the lights would stay on, it is important that the generosity of the faithful members at Independent Presbyterian Church continues to move. And this season, through the Giving Tree, IPC’s Social Services, and the Children’s Fresh Air Farm, we are reminded that hope is not shut down, and compassion never closes.
As we clear the Thanksgiving table, hunger and hardship are closer to home than many of us realize. In Alabama one recent report found that 1 in 6 adults and 1 in 4 children face food insecurity. In the city of Birmingham, the poverty rate sits at approximately 24 percent—nearly double the statewide average. With food programs paused, paychecks delayed, and winter approaching, more families are turning to local ministries for help. At IPC, our Social Services ministry
stands on the front lines of that response. Every week, our ministry helps people cover utility bills, avoid eviction, access food, meet medical and transportation needs, and build job-readiness through education and training. Behind every number is a story. Like Ms. Sanders, a mother of five who was reported to a local agency for truancy. When a caseworker followed up, they discovered the family had been living in a car after eviction from their home. With
remarkable perseverance, Ms. Sanders found work again at her former job, and IPC Social Services partnered with another organization to provide the deposit for a new apartment. Today, her children are back in school and the family is rebuilding stability and hope. Across our city, when folks are facing impossible decisions between paying their rent, the medications or groceries for their family –

“
A Grateful Heart”
Dear IPC Friends, Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays, and not just because I get to stuff myself with an incredible assortment of amazing food. I think it is wonderful that we set aside an entire day to think collectively about all the things for which we are thankful. One of the most important things we can do as Christians is learn to develop grateful hearts. After all, there is nothing like a spirit of gratitude to open our eyes to all that God is doing in our lives, which of course only makes us more grateful!
I used to think it unfortunate that Thanksgiving came right before Christmas. After all, on Christmas we exchange gifts with one another as we celebrate the greatest gift the world has ever received, the gift of the Christ child. And it always seemed to me that it would make more sense for us to celebrate Thanksgiving after Christmas so that we could express our gratitude for all that we have received. But now I see it a little differently. I think it is better that we celebrate Thanksgiving first because only those with thankful hearts are truly able to recognize all that they are being given.
In the words of Oliver Wendell Holmes, “If anyone should give me a dish of sand and tell me there were particles of iron in it, I might look for them with my eyes and search for them with my clumsy fingers, and be unable to find them. But let me take a magnet and sweep through it, and how it would draw to itself the most invisible particles by the sheer power of attraction. The unthankful heart, like my fingers in the sand, discovers no blessings; but let the thankful heart sweep through the day, and as the magnet finds the iron, so it will find in every hour some blessings; only the iron in God’s hand is gold.”
As we enter the season of Advent, let us do so with hearts full of gratitude for all that God has given us. We are an incredibly blessed church, and we have much for which to be thankful. And there is nothing like a thankful heart to open your eyes to the gracious, golden bounty of the Lord in your life.
See you in worship!
Rev. Kevin J. Long Pastor

UPDATES FROM CFAF
This fall at the Children’s Fresh Air Farm (CFAF) has been full of joy, laughter, and community. We kicked off the season with a wonderful Fall Fun Day, welcoming nearly 50 children for a day full of games, crafts, and time together outdoors. We also hosted our first high school Friendsgiving, bringing CFAF alumni back to the farm to share a Thanksgiving meal filled with friendship, reflection, and hope for what’s ahead.
SPREADING JOY WITH ANGEL TREE
As we move into the holiday season, our Angel Tree is helping to spread even more joy, supporting around 130 students with Christmas gifts made possible through the incredible generosity of IPC members and friends.
SPRING SUMMER LEARNING PROGRAM
Looking ahead to the spring, we’re excited to continue growing our afterschool program, deepening connections with families, and preparing for another
unforgettable Summer Learning Program. At CFAF, every season reminds us of the beauty of community and the difference that love, learning, and laughter can make in a child’s life.
In this season of Advent, as we await the arrival of Christ, let us not miss Christ who is already here among “the least of these.” It is here, where we discover an Advent hope. A hope that looks and sounds like how the fifthcentury African bishop Augustine once spoke of it. He said, “Hope has two beautiful daughters. Their names are
anger and courage; anger at the way things are, and courage to see that they do not remain the way they are.”
We invite you into that hope this season. In a time of gift giving, we invite you to purchase with a purpose. Honor someone you love with a card from the Giving Tree. You can purchase them in the parlor or online (see page 10).
Every donation supports IPC’s Social Services and the Children’s Fresh Air Farm. Together, we proclaim that the light still shines in the darkness—and the darkness cannot overcome it.
2025 SUMMER LEARNING PROGRAM GRADUATES
GET TO KNOW BOY SCOUT TROOP 28
BY MERRILL STEWART, TROOP 28 COMMITTEE CHAIRMAN
Did you know that IPC first sponsored Scout Troop 28 in 1923? The good news is, we are still here and are recruiting new boys to benefit from all that Scouting has to offer. Scouting can also co-exist with youth sports!
WHO?
Generally speaking, boys join Scouting at the age of 11 or 5th grade, but jumping in later is completely okay. We have Scouts from several different school systems, and we see this diversity as something that makes Troop 28 extra special. Parents are also welcome, and we guarantee you will also get a lot out of Scouting.
WHAT?
Troop 28 enjoys camping, canoeing, fishing trips, visiting cool places, and so much more. Most of all, our Scouts are having fun.
WHEN/WHERE?
We have just finished updating our Troop 28 Scout Hut located directly behind Highland Hall on the IPC campus. Kendall Holman, our Scoutmaster, leads meetings each Monday evening at 6:45 pm, which last for about an hour.
WHY?
This is the most important part. Yes, Scouting gives the boys an opportunity to explore the world, but it also creates a place for them to develop character, learn values of citizenship and leadership, and work on mental and physical fitness. It is a somewhat structured environment where we learn everyday life and outdoor
skills along the way. During a time where so many people feel disconnected, Scouting gives us an opportunity to foster real relationships and grow exponentially on a personal level while also making positive contributions to our community.
I would like to personally invite you and your son(s) to come a meeting. If you're not familiar with Scouting, I'm happy to answer all the questions you may have.
SAVE THE DATE
On December 14, after the 11 worship service, we will be hosting an open house at the Scout Hut for interested parents and their boys who are of Scout age or will be soon. Please stop by for a visit and learn more about Scouting at IPC.
Should you have any questions about Scouting at IPC or need additional information, please contact Merrill Stewart at mstewart@stewartperry.com or (205) 790-2393.

IPC FOUNDATION Youth Grant Team
BY IPC YOUTH MINISTRIES
Each year, the Youth Grant Team (YGT) brings together a select group of high school juniors and seniors who are eager to put their faith into action through discernment, service, and stewardship. Over the course of 12 weeks, these young leaders commit their time and energy to learning about the grant cycle by reviewing applications, conducting site visits, and thoughtfully discerning how to allocate the $20,000 from the IPC Foundation.
This year’s team has shown exceptional maturity and compassion. They have asked thoughtful and intentional questions of presenters and applicants, demonstrated grace and respect in moments of disagreement, and shown an inspiring awareness of the issues affecting our community, our nation, and the world.
What made this year’s YGT especially meaningful was the group’s intentional focus on causes that reflect the values and concerns of our youth today. Their chosen recipients represent a diverse range of organizations and populations served, more so than in years past, a true reflection of the team’s deep empathy and desire to make an impact across many walks of life.
We are proud of the YGT’s dedication and discernment throughout this process. Their work continues to strengthen the connection between our church’s mission and the real needs of our community.
2025 YOUTH GRANT TEAM PRESENTATION DAY
A CALLING OF COMPASSION
BY REV. LUCY TURNER, RETIRED IPC ASSOCIATE PASTOR FOR CONGREGATIONAL CARE AND COUNSELING
Some years ago, at a discipleship fair in the Great Hall, a delightfully lovable curmudgeon named Joel Hillhouse approached me. He had recently retired and said he was looking for a volunteer job. Without missing a beat, I replied, “I have just the job for you. I need a new Head Funeral Usher.”
Joel gave me a quizzical look and said, “That’s not what I had in mind.” But after thinking about it for a day or two, he said yes.
To his surprise, Joel soon discovered that this ministry, serving the church and grieving families, was a moving experience. During his first year as Head of the Funeral Ushers Committee, he sent me several emails expressing gratitude for the opportunity to serve. He often shared how proud he was of the way IPC offers comfort to grieving families and hospitality to guests at memorial services.
What many may not realize is how many volunteers are involved on the day of a memorial service.
THREE DEDICATED GROUPS ARE AMONG THOSE WHO MAKE EVERYTHING POSSIBLE:
• The Guild Funeral Committee, chaired by Barbara Stone and Jean Shanks
• The Guild Flower Committee, chaired by Cathy DeLozier
• The Funeral Ushers Committee, chaired by John Feagin
Beyond their practical duties lies a deeper calling: to bear witness to the resurrection of Jesus Christ through acts of compassion and service. From the quiet preparations long before the doors open to the final moments when the last guest departs, these men and women go
about their work with grace and love. Their ministry is not only a gift to families; it is also a tremendous blessing to the pastors. From my first days at IPC, I realized how these committees lift many logistical responsibilities from the clergy, freeing us to focus entirely on caring for families and preparing for worship.
Throughout my years of ministry, many members said to me at their time of loss, “I don’t know what to do.” My response was always confident and sincere: “Don’t worry. We will take care of everything and take care of your family.” And time after time, our volunteers have done just that, whether for an intimate service in the chapel with sixty guests or a large gathering in the sanctuary with six hundred.
If you would like to share in this meaningful ministry, I encourage you to contact Rev. Susan Clayton. She may have just the job for you— one that blesses others and, in time, may bless you even more deeply.

CONGREGATIONAL CARE & COUNSELING
A Gift of Care for the Season
BY REV. SUSAN CLAYTON, ASSOCIATE PASTOR FOR CONGREGATIONAL CARE AND ADULT MINISTRIES
The Advent season invites us to open our hearts to the light of Christ and to the ways God meets us with comfort, hope, and grace. For some, the holidays bring joy and connection. For others, this time of year can be more challenging, especially when navigating loss, change, or other challenges.
Through the generosity of a faithful member of our congregation, IPC’s Congregational Care and Counseling Ministry has established a Scholarship Fund to help senior adults, age 65 and above, access professional counseling through our on-site counselors. The goal of this fund is to eliminate any barriers to accessing professional, confidential counseling in a safe and welcoming environment. These funds are open to IPC members and friends.
If you are interested in discussing this possibility, please feel free to contact either of our counselors directly: Dr. Stewart Jackson at (205) 933-3698 or Dr. Kenneth Wade at (205) 933-3695. Their offices are on the ground floor of IPC, and they make their own appointments to ensure confidentiality. You may also reach out to me at (205) 933-3706 for more information.
We are here to be of help to anyone in need of pastoral care or counseling services. You are always welcome here.
Advent at the John N. Lukens Library
BY GINNI ROBERTSON, IPC LIBRARIAN
Visit the John N. Lukens Library, located adjacent to the elevator on the same floor as the Great Hall, to find devotional books for Advent, Christmas, and Epiphany.
Christmas books for all ages are on display in the entrance area. You will find books containing the Bible stories as well as those of Christmas traditions, Christmas music, and fiction with a Christmas theme throughout the library.
There are many Christmas books in the children's corner which are just right for your children or grandchildren to enjoy. The library is always open and the lights come on when you enter.
For more information or questions, please contact Ginni Robertson at ginni.robertson@gmail.com.
WHAT BRINGS YOU JOY?
BY JEANNE MONK, STEWARDSHIP COMMITTEE CHAIR
At IPC, joy is at the heart of who we are. We experience it in worship, in fellowship, in serving our neighbors, and in watching our children grow in faith. Over the years, I have found deep joy in being part of a church that welcomes, teaches, and loves so well. Whether it’s the sound of our choir on Sunday morning, the laughter of children at the Children’s Fresh Air Farm, or the kindness shown to those in need, I see God’s joy reflected in our Family of Faith every day.
This year’s stewardship theme, Joyful Generosity, is inspired by 2 Corinthians 9:7: “Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.”
These words remind us that generosity begins in the heart. When we give cheerfully, we respond to God’s abundance with faith and gratitude, trusting that our gifts will bless others and strengthen the work of Christ’s church.
THE FOUNDATION FOR MINISTRY, MISSION, AND GROWTH
Your annual pledge provides the foundation for ministry, mission, and growth at IPC in 2026. Pledges fund the church’s daily operating expenses, ensuring that worship, programs, and pastoral care continue throughout the year. At the same time, IPC is striving to become a tithing church, giving away 10 percent of the gifts we receive to support Christ’s mission beyond our doors.
Through your generosity, our congregation continues to grow— welcoming new members, nurturing children and youth, supporting our mission partners, and caring for one another.
Every pledge, no matter the size, helps sustain the ministries that shape lives both within and beyond our walls. Together, our gifts allow us to worship deeply, serve faithfully, and share God’s love in meaningful ways.
AN INVITATION TO PARTICIPATE
As we continue the work God has entrusted to us, may we do so with joyful generosity, offering what we have with open hearts and grateful spirits. We pray for 100% participation from our members this year. If you have never pledged before, we invite you to take that first step and join in this shared act of faith.
Your faithful giving ensures that IPC remains a place of comfort, learning, and hope for all who come through our doors. Together, with joy and gratitude, we will continue building on the strong foundation that has carried our church for generations.
WAYS TO PLEDGE
• Mail your pledge card to the church

IPC NOW & FOREVER: STORIES THAT INSPIRE
BY IPC NOW & FOREVER CAMPAIGN AMBASSADORS
Since launching this spring, IPC Now & Forever, our church’s endowment campaign, has continued to build momentum toward ensuring IPC thrives today and for generations to come. With gifts and commitments already exceeding 37 percent of our $50 million goal, the campaign is off to an encouraging start! This campaign is a thoughtful, long-term effort, and we are committed to connecting personally with as many people as possible in the months ahead.
Two new campaign videos feature IPC families sharing heartfelt stories about why they give and the lasting impact they hope to see. Each story brings the spirit and purpose behind IPC Now & Forever to life, showing how generosity, faith, and love for IPC continue to shape our church today and for generations to come. Through their words, we are reminded that every gift and every family play a role in strengthening our shared legacy.
The Granthams reflect on multiple generations growing up at IPC, with three children who participated in IPC’s children and youth ministries and now grandchildren in the Day School. They share how these experiences have shaped their family’s faith and deepened their connection to the church. Their story highlights the joy of seeing faith carried forward through generations and the importance of sustaining the ministries that make IPC a spiritual home for so many. Their decision to become members of the Henry M. Edmonds Society reflects
gratitude for what IPC has meant to their family and a desire to give back for future generations.
The Grovers, parents of twin 16-yearold boys, share their perspective on what it means to live out generosity and faith. Their story underscores that planning for the future and including IPC in one’s estate is an act of faith and stewardship at any age. Jessica Grover, who works in trusts and estates, offers both professional and personal insight on why families should take time to plan now and revisit those plans throughout life. Their commitment reflects a desire to give thoughtfully and ensure that IPC’s ministries continue to flourish for generations to come. Together, these stories remind us that IPC’s
