Here's the Zoom link Consecration Sunday Open House is this Sunday, October 4, 1p.m.-4p.m. Please use this link to reserve a time for your visit. You're invited to visit the Rectory -- which will be open in celebration of its 200 years, pick-up a refreshment in the driveway, have a moment of quiet in the church, and offer your estimate-of-giving for 2021 on the altar or a special table in the driveway. Presiding Bishop Michael Curry's Word to the Church In Sunday's sermon, I mentioned a helpful distinction in Bishop Michael's message, between having a partisan voice and a moral voice. A partisan voice advocating for political parties or candidates is not the Church's role. A moral voice advocating for the love of God manifested in love of neighbor and proper regard for one's self, is the Church's role. You can find the full text and a video of him delivering the Word here. In it, Bishop Michael tells a powerful story of reconciliation, and decries violence against people of color and against those in law enforcement. Indeed it is hard to square such violence with Paul's admonition to the Church in Rome: Love does no wrong to a neighbor, therefore love is the fulfilling of the law. Romans 13:10 In the faith, hope and love of Christ, Harrison+ Your Friendly Neighborhood Rector

Remember thy servant, O Lord, according to the favor which thou bearest unto thy people; and grant that, increasing in knowledge and love of thee, she may go from strength to strength in the life of perfect service in thy heavenly kingdom; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. BCP, p. 488 Dear Hearts, This is the prayer for the departed that I offered on Sunday morning for the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg and all who have died. (So, yes, there were a couple edits.) It is one of the many beautiful prayers in the Book of Common Prayer for the deceased, for the larger fellowship of all the saints in light, for those who mourn, and for all of us who remain on this side of the veil. They're in two spots -- pp.487-489 and pp. 503-505. The richness of these prayers is among the reasons to be an Episcopalian -- or so it seems to me! Our prayers are also asked for ---- All who are ill including, Margaret S, and Phillip, and for Dale and all others contending with Covid-19 disease, and for all facing financial hardship because of the pandemic. May they all know the healing power of Christ's presence and love. For the repose of the over 200,000 of our fellow citizens, who have died of the coronavirus. Rest eternal grant to them, O Lord, and may light perpetual shine upon them. Let us offer prayers of thanksgiving for the birthdays of Cindy McNamara, Owen Marks, and Rhoda Whitman Bless these your servants, as they begin another year, may they continue to grow in wisdom and grace.

We continue this Thursday, September 23, at 9:30a.m. We''ll talk about Genesis chapter 33. Here's the Zoom link Report from Sunday School Gathering ... I think maybe 18 of us gathered in the backyard -- keeping safe distances, wearing masks, etc. -- for fellowship, refreshment, to play some games, and engage with Tyler Jarvis about the story of Jonah. Tyler is such a great storyteller, it was just fun to hear him tell the story. He had some thought-provoking things to say about Jonah's prayer from the belly of the whale; so I had to have a look at it. Tyler's right. Instead of being a prayer of repentance and for deliverance from captivity in the big fish, Jonah's prayer is of confidence that God will save him. Since we may feel in captivity ourselves, I thought it would be worth building tomorrow's Evening Prayers around Jonah's prayer. As a preview of coming attractions, here it is: Then Jonah prayed to the Lord his God from the belly of the fish, saying, “I called to the Lord out of my distress, and he answered me; out of the belly of Sheol I cried, and you heard my voice. You cast me into the deep, into the heart of the seas, and the flood surrounded me; all your waves and your billows passed over me. Then I said, ‘I am driven away from your sight; how shall I look again upon your holy temple?’ The waters closed in over me; the deep surrounded me; weeds were wrapped around my head at the roots of the mountains. I went down to the land whose bars closed upon me forever; yet you brought up my life from the Pit, O Lord my God. As my life was ebbing away, I remembered the Lord; and my prayer came to you, into your holy temple. Those who worship vain idols forsake their true loyalty. But I with the voice of thanksgiving will sacrifice to you; what I have vowed I will pay. Deliverance belongs to the Lord!” Then the Bible says, "Then the Lord spoke to the fish, and it spewed Jonah out upon the dry land." So, there's hope for us! Jonah 2:1-10 In the faith, hope and love of Christ, Harrison+ Your Friendly Neighborhood Rector  Sunday School to Meet 5:30p.m. this Sunday

This isn't an announcement, but I feel the need to take note here of the death of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. I have been moved by what I have read and heard today including from our Presiding Bishop Michael Curry's statement and the joint one from Washington National Cathedral and the Bishop of Washington. You can read them here and here, respectively. The Justice died as the Jewish celebration of Rosh Hashanah began. As the Jewish calendar begins a new year, we may pray for Justice Ginsburg, "Shanah Tovah" (Good Year) as she enters into life without the pain that had been her constant companion in recent months. For we who remain, perhaps comes the responsibility to continue her work, to actively seek equal justice with compassion and mercy for all.  Sept. 16, 2020
God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth be moved, and though the mountains be toppled into the depths of the sea; Though its waters rage and foam, and though the mountains tremble at its tumult. The LORD of Hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our stronghold. Psalm 46:1-4, BCP, p. 649 Dear Hearts, Yesterday a parishioner wrote to ask if the Episcopal Church has a relief agency responding to the wildfires along the west coast of the United States. Indeed, we do! Episcopal Relief & Development is responding not only to the wildfires in the west, and Sally and Laura and Isaias and other windstorms, but also the explosion in Beirut, and is engaged in on-going development programs with a special focus on improving the lives of women, children and those affected by climate change. In its own words: For over 75 years, Episcopal Relief & Development has been working together with supporters and partners for lasting change around the world. Each year the organization facilitates healthier, more fulfilling lives for more than 3 million people struggling with hunger, poverty, disaster and disease. Inspired by Jesus’ words in Matthew 25, Episcopal Relief & Development leverages the expertise and resources of Anglican and other partners to deliver measurable and sustainable change in three signature program areas: Women, Children and Climate.

Here's the Zoom link And another thing ... or four about forgiveness. 1. On Tuesday the brief meditation from the Church of the Savior in Washington, DC included a -- new to me -- insight about forgiveness, that has been variously quoted by Lily Tomlin and Oprah Winfrey: " forgiveness means giving up all hope for a better past… It involves accepting that the past cannot be changed, while recognizing that it need not control our future." 2. On Monday, I read the Bishop of Washington (DC)'s, reflection on forgiveness. Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde and I had both re-read a sermon by the Rev. Barbara Brown Taylor -- though we quoted different portions of it. You can read Bishop Mariann's essay here. 3. In my Sunday sermon I also quoted a passage from a 2008 sermon by the late Rev. Ann Richards that is so personal that those of us who knew her can hear her preaching it. I'm grateful to Annie Rae for sharing the sermon with me, and I'd be happy to return the favor by passing a copy on to you. Just reply to this message. 4. Finally, the opening extended quotation in my sermon was from the Rev. Barbara Crafton. I was asked to include it here: We think forgiveness is something it's not, and we balk at them. For instance: 1. Forgive and forget. Nonsense. History has happened and forgiveness doesn't wipe it out. 2. If I forgive, it'll mean what was done was okay. Also nonsense. You don't have to forgive things that are okay -- they're already okay, right? 3. It will mean the wrongdoer gets away with it. Nope. Actions have consequences and the one who sins against you will have to pay for their actions. We all must. 4. It will mean the wrongdoing didn't really hurt me. No, it won't. Forgiveness is not acquittal See #2. 5. I can't forgive the wrongdoer; they're not even sorry. Your forgiveness isn't really about them, although they occasioned the need for it. Forgiveness is about you: Your freedom. Your future. Getting your life back. 6. I can't. It's been too long. Maybe it happened long ago. but if you're carrying it around now, it's a current reality. 7. I can't. The one I'm furious at is me. That's the one person most people can't forgive, most often. More than anyone else. Ask yourself if you could hold out on anyone else as long as you are holding out on yourself. Make use of the Church's assurance of God's forgiveness in a sacramental confession, and then ask yourself if you are above God (Hint: the answer is, No!) In the faith, hope and love of Christ, Harrison+ Your Friendly Neighborhood Rector p.s. Thanks for all the kind inquiries about my family's well-being in Oregon. So far as I know everyone who evacuated is back in their homes including my brother, sister-in-law and nephew. Kevin reports that the smoke is still thick, but "not horrible." Their animals are still boarded elsewhere. The airstrip adjacent to their home is being used as a staging area for firefighting, including sending out drones because the smoke and fog are too thick to send out planes.  Sept. 9 2020
O God, our refuge and strength, our help in times of trouble. Have mercy on the lands damaged by fires. Have mercy on the lands where the weather has destroyed livelihoods. Protect those who evacuate houses, and strengthen those who rebuild hope so that entire communities may face the future without fear. Amen. Episcopal Relief & Development Dear Hearts, When my brother and I left his home in Estacada, Oregon yesterday evening, for the 40 minute drive to the airport, there were evacuation orders for an area some miles to the north, and another larger area several miles to the south. The sky was a tumult of grey and orange and pitch black. Although traffic was heavy for awhile, Kevin knows the backroads, and we got to the airport in an hour. My flight was able to depart almost on time. This morning the smoke was clearing in Estacada. During the day, prepare-to-evacuate warnings were issued. I just received word that those warnings had become a mandatory evacuation order. Kevin,Tamara and Erik were packed and ready; with places to go for them, their dogs and even their obnoxious Amazon parrot. As my sister-in-law says, they're among the fortunate who have options; she urged prayers for those who don't. Episcopal Relief & Development offers the prayer above for all who are contending with wildfires in western California, Oregon, Washington State, and elsewhere.. Our prayers are also asked for ---- All who are ill including, Margaret S for Dale and all others contending with Covid-19 disease, and for all facing financial hardship because of the pandemic. May they all know the healing power of Christ's presence and love. For the repose of Michael N and the other 190,000 of our fellow citizens, who have died of the coronavirus. Rest eternal grant to them, O Lord, and may light perpetual shine upon them. Let us offer prayers of thanksgiving for the birthday of Mardee Moore. Bless your servant, as she begins another year, may she continue to grow in wisdom and grace, Please continue to hold in prayer: Elena P, Judy & Ed S, Frank, Michael M, Richard, D, Dave K, Brian A, Jim & Annie, John, Joan G., Lois C., Winnie Z, Bernie and family, Susie & Paul, Pam McG, Julie H, Murray E., Brooke & family, Kate S., Tracy M., Carl, Michael S, Joanne N-R, Madeline H, and Kelly G, Also: Paul D, Susan S, Linda B, June C, Charlie K, Anne C, Mark S, Angela G, Maria, Bob, Olivia, Lois T, and Jo B.

Names will then move to the "continuing" list for 30 days, and the longer term list upon request. Sunday School Families Be on the lookout for the return of Digital Sunday School for this Sunday, September 13, and the invitation to a Sunday School lesson and picnic Sunday evening September 20, 5:30-7p.m. Wednesday Evening Prayers will resume next Wednesday, September 16 at 7p.m.. Thursday Bible Study will resume our conversations with, and about, the saga of Jacob and Joseph next Thursday, September 17, at 9:30a.m. While I was in Oregon, the mostly peaceful political storms in Portland became both smaller in size and also uglier: the violence from the left and the right resulted in the deaths of two participants. One afternoon, my brother and I enjoyed lunch outside a favorite brew pub in the neighborhood where some of the protests had been -- a neighborhood where our grandfather built the family's second auto parts warehouse. I wish I could report something positive from these protests; however creative some of the street theater may have been, all I could see was a major challenge to the city's resilience. So, a prayer for Portland, and all communities torn by conflict and violence: O God, you have bound us together in a common life. Help us in the midst of our struggles for justice and truth, to confront one another without hatred or bitterness, and to work together with mutual forbearance and respect; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. BCP, p. 824 In the faith, hope and love of Christ, Harrison+ Your Friendly Neighborhood Rector |
