GOOD PRAYER IS ABOUT GOOD LOVE
My Sunday School class this fall (“The Dean’s Forum”) is discussing prayer. Yes, a broad and expansive title! In particular, however, we are examining how various liturgies (sets of prayers) in The Book of Common Prayer might lead us to those special moments of contemplation and holiness that so many of us desire in prayer. Those words which we often stumble over can actually provide holy spaces, moments where we might experience God—moments where we might love. In other words, the words are not just words! During our first weeks, we have been discussing the Office of Morning Prayer, that set of prayers meant for daily use, but which some of us remember as a weekly Sunday service fifty years ago. A few of us pray that office daily, but most of us don’t. It takes up time and can be complicated to figure out! Well, our class is making progress in making that daily opportunity more accessible. Last week, we considered confession, the way that Morning Prayer may start. (Note the “may!” as opposed to the “shall!” We have learned about rubrics!) Right, an opening confession of sin is not required for daily Morning Prayer. Still, the practice is healthy. Here is the confession that we use, generally, for both our daily Morning Prayer and our weekly Eucharist: Most merciful God, we confess that we have sinned against you in thought, word, and deed, by what we have done, and by what we have left undone. We have not loved you with our whole heart; we have not loved our neighbors as ourselves. We are truly sorry and we humbly repent. For the sake of your Son Jesus Christ, have mercy on us and forgive us; that we may delight in your will, and walk in your ways, to the glory of your Name. Amen.
Those words are fine. On any given day, I may focus on a different word or phrase than I did yesterday. However, what is more important to me than the words is the release.
He said to him, “If they do not listen to Moses and the prophets, neither will they be convinced even if someone rises from the dead.” From this week’s lectionary Luke 16:31
Yes, the release. Confession is important because of the release. I may not be a notorious sinner, nor somebody with a daily catalog of regrets and failings (well… upon investigation, I may have more than I want to admit.) The important act, beyond the words and the particularities, is the release. Confession is about letting go, letting go of whatever it is that may be prohibiting my experience of love. Because God is love. Whatever gets in the way of love gets in the way of God. In the morning, preparing for the day, it is good to let my soul release. It is good to let my soul let go of whatever it might be that is getting in the way of love. What might have been a helpful activity of love yesterday might not be such a helpful activity today. Let it go, my confession says, release it. Good prayer is about good love. Good prayer prepares a place for love to enter, a place for love to reside. Thus, it is good for our liturgies to provide a time for us to release the clutter of our lives. That’s what confession is. It is providing a place for love.
Join Dean Sam Candler this Sunday for part two of “The Office of Morning Prayer!” We will talk about why we read the particular bible stories we read, what the lectionary is, and how biblical words shape our spiritual character. The Dean’s Forum begins at 10:10 am in Child Hall!

CH APTER THE CHAPTER NEEDS YOUR HELP IN CHOOSING THE CATHEDR AL’S LEADERS The Chapter Nominating Committee is accepting your recommendations for the 2017 slate to be elected at the annual parish meeting. The Chapter Nominating Committee has begun its work of assembling the slate of Chapter nominees for the 2017 slate, and invites the Cathedral parish to submit recommendations of qualified candidates by October 1. As the governing body of the Cathedral, the Chapter determines policy issues, sets goals, and provides stewardship of the Cathedral’s complex operations. The Chapter formally reviews the status of each of the Cathedral’s parochial entities and ministries, as well as parish financial statements. Unlike smaller parishes, the Chapter does not usually get involved in the day-to-day activities of the Cathedral. Instead, the Chapter of the Cathedral operates as a board of trustees or board of stewards. Each Chapter member serves a three-year term, and Chapter by-laws allow for members to be: “Any communicant of the parish in good and regular standing, who is not less than eighteen years of age, a regular attendant in Cathedral worship in the year preceding election, and known by the treasurer to have made and maintained a stated financial commitment for church support in the year preceding election.” The most important quality of an effective Chapter member is an ability to see the larger picture. Most Chapter members have held leadership positions in more than one of the church’s ministries or parochial entities. After recommendations are given to the Nominating Committee by October 1, eligibility is verified, nominees are
polled to confirm interest and availability, and the committee chooses six strong candidates. That slate is sent to the Chapter for approval. Chapter members are elected by the parish at the annual parish meeting in December. The Nominating Committee looks at candidates who will round out the experience of continuing Chapter members. An attempt is made to include representatives from all age and gender groups, while ensuring that a broad range of ministries and parochial entities of the Cathedral parish is represented. Members of the committee include: Josh Borden, Mary Caroline Cravens, Wade Hooper, Ruth Russ, Susan Troutman, George Watson, Kate Brewer, Joan Gilbert, Andi O’Bryan, Caroline Wallace, and Buddy Weston. Dean Sam Candler serves ex-officio. Names of recommendations should be submitted along with a brief supporting statement to any Nominating Committee member or to the Office of the Dean, 404-365-1031 or jjohnson@ stphilipscathedral.org, by October 1.
