Our Adventuer in FAith: September & October 2015

Marking Our Place in the Community

From our Senior WardenWelcome to our Late Pentecost Publication!Well, folks, we have successfully survived two months on our own. In some ways, it feels like two years! But it has been good. We have accomplished a lot as we have forged ahead in our Adventure in Faith. And believe me, faith is a big part of our success.

ɶ We have bought an organ to be installed this month.

ɶ We have completed some repairs (the rectory roof ) and begun others.

ɶ We did a yeoman’s job of cleaning our parish attic, i.e., the stage and other areas.

ɶ We have conducted a demanding pastoral care program.

We have enjoyed the different preaching styles of the Reverends Dwight Edwards, Stephen Mills, Lamont Wiltsee and Deborah Kempson-Thompson. We look forward to visits from Vincent Raj, Joe Patronik and Charles Stacy. Chuck is a former priest of this parish. Come renew an old friendship.

Read on in the magazine, articles by your fellow parishioners. Vote for a name for this publication. Put the parish picnic on your calendar. Read about the clergy selection process.

We are still in the green season, growing in the faith.Claudia Ward, Senior Warden

The Power of Communityby Candace DiLello

Each of us has a passion in this life. Mine is spiritual community. Ask anyone who knows me at All Saints’. I wear it like a neon sign! Because community is so important to me, I want to share my thoughts about it with you.

Our All Saints community has so many moving parts that it’s hard to describe it as a cohesive whole. Yet that is exactly what it is because all the parts work together to provide a safe and welcoming space for us all to follow Jesus. From the welcoming faces of Izzi and the other greeters and the smiles of Don and his small but valiant crew of ushers to the tasty and gracious coffee hour hosts, the first experience of All Saints’ is a friendly welcome for all to come and worship.

We all know about the community formed by attending one of our three services. Though different in tone and texture, all three liturgies have their loyal communities. And those of us at the 10:30 a.m.and the Evensong services appreciate the warm community of our choir and the uplifting and joyous accompaniment by Richard and Pamela. We are all embraced by the Eucharist and the priests, acolytes, LEMs and altar guilders that form this very sacred aspect of our All Saint’s community.

All the small groups that work to expand our spiritual community, from The Friends of Saint Benedict, the Bible Study group and the covenant groups to the Book Group, deepen the sacred experience of community. The larger social aspect of community is also well served by our various gatherings like the Advent Feast, the Lenten Soup Suppers and even, or especially, hot dogs on clean-up day! Our annual Santa Lucia picnic is one of the high points of our community gathered for fun and food.

For me, these aspects of our community are why I feel All Saints’ is my true church home. The people I have gotten to know in the last 15 months have taken me into the community with open arms. I have felt welcomed, appreciated, needed. I can be myself in this community. It’s a safe and nurturing home for my heart.

As we move into the future of this wonderful community, I look forward to making new friends and discovering new ways to deepen my faith and nurture my spirit. After all, we are each and every one of us, Christ’s disciples. Our community is “the church.” We are all saints.

Vestry NewsThe Search Processby Claudia Ward, Senior Warden

We are making steady progress in the search for a new priest for our parish. It is a daunting task, especially when one thinks about the impact our choice will make on so many people. So, as you can imagine, we do not want to rush into anything. We have been presented with four names and have read their curricula vitae. Our next step, taking place about the same time as this goes to press, is to interview all four via an internet program called Go to Meeting which allows several people to converse at one time. Then,

we will select two whom we will invite here to meet in person. As you can understand, even at that stage, the names of the candidates must remain confidential to protect their privacy. After meeting in person, we hope to have a clear choice of a candidate at which point he or she will be called. And if the call is accepted, the name will be announced to the congregation.

Stay tuned. And pray like mad as we struggle to make the right choice for us all.

Memorial Garden Updateby Jana Gill

The Memorial Garden is moving forward with a revised plan. Some changes were made to help create the columbarium in stages, as we raise funds. The new updated plan will be presented to the vestry in September. Please contact me if you have questions or are

interested in reserving a columbarium niche for family members. Our church is so very fortunate to have the grounds to create a memorial garden. Let’s all work to make it a beautiful reality.

Report from Buildings & Grounds Committeeby Jim Shillinglaw

The B&G Committee has been busy cleaning, polishing, arranging and repairing since the summer began. A work day was held August 8th where about a dozen workers spent the better part of the day attacking the Seccombe Hall stage, the linen and silver closets, the youth room and others areas, which I cannot remember. Repairs are well under way at the rectory with the roof preservation complete, including the replacement of some wood areas destroyed by dry rot. The repairs to the roof should render the building water proof for many years ahead and plans are underway for the refurbishing of the front porch and the walkways leading to and from it. Rusted and broken from years of exposure to the elements, most of the wrought iron railing will be replaced while the front porch surface is being worked on. Further, the carpet will be replaced in the rectory and in the Church Office.

Most of these projects have been possible due to a most generous bequest received by All Saints’ a short while ago. And, of course, another recent bequest has allowed the purchase and installation of a new (to us) digital organ, to be installed during September this year.

Raul, our sexton, and Claudia Ward, our senior warden, have spearheaded most of these projects spending countless hours attending to the various details of the actions taken, and we thank them for their diligence and leadership.

Plans are still on the drawing board for a Memorial Garden (columbarium) with design adjustments being the current main consideration, with Jana Gill leading the charge.

If you should have the slightest interest in this kind of work for our Lord, please consider joining us and contributing your time and talent in the completion of the many projects underway and for future changes and repairs. It always seems like there is more to do!

WorshipKids Go Bach to the Futureby Carteena Robohm

Children in elementary and middle school grades gathered at All Saints’ Church for Bach to the Future during the two weeks of the Carmel Bach Festival. This was the eleventh year for the program. The children learned music of Bach, Handel and Mozart

and offered this music as they lifted their voices in song for the worship services following each week of program sessions.

Different music was learned each week as well as program activities. Highlights of the program were the daily visits from Mr. Bach and Bach Talk with musicians from the festival chorale and orchestra sharing their passion of music and their instruments.

All program activities were musically

oriented, each with learning experiences. Participants enjoyed two one hour choral sessions each day, learned to hear, see and feel rhythm, and enjoyed unique educational musical games. They explored listening experiences to perk up their ears, were led in movement exercises with grace by Grace Swearingen, and experienced fun-filled activities with the building Bach community. A Bach’s lunch was served each day.

A group of volunteers with the children every day made this program possible. We are grateful that All Saints’ Church offers Bach to the Future as we strive to keep the arts before the children in the community.

Music at All Saints’by Kathy Kirkwood, Choir Director

Let every instrument be tuned for praise!Let all rejoice who have a voice to raise!And may God give us faith to sing always Alleluia!

The last verse of Hymn 420 with its three exclamation points inspires each of us to offer our praise and thanksgiving through music.

The Chancel Choir sings at the 10:30 a.m. service, Evensong at 5:30 pm on 1st Sundays each month, and for special services. Rehearsals are Thursday evenings from 7 – 8:30 p.m. and we meet at 9 a.m. on Sunday to rehearse before the service. If you would like to sing with the choir, please let me or a choir member know. I will arrange for a short session to sing through some warm-ups to determine pitch and vocal placement.

New music has been arriving over the summer to complement our favorite anthems. While Psalm 150 proclaims “Praise Him with sounding cymbals, with loud clashing cymbals!” the Choir will take a slightly subtler approach, although excitement is building as we imagine the sounds our new organ will offer. The instrument will first be heard on Sunday, October 4. A month-long celebration to welcome the organ to its place in our loft is planned leading to the dedication on November 1, All Saints’ Day. Alleluia!

Our All Saints’ Heritageby Elizabeth Barratt, All Saints’ Historian-Archivist

In 1906 a group of Episcopalians living in the newly established village of Carmel gathered to celebrate occasional services at the Pine Inn under the auspices of the vacationing Bishop William Hall Moreland of the Missionary District of Northern California. By 1910 a small congregation was meeting weekly under the leadership of the Rev. Edward H. Moloney, who traveled over the hill on Sunday afternoons from St. Mary’s-by-the-Sea. In July 1912 All Saints’ Episcopal Church was founded as a mission.

Carmel developer Franklin Devendorf helped acquire property on Monte Verde Street near Ocean Avenue. Assisted by William Overstreet, founder of the Carmel Pine Cone newspaper, architect Albert Caudell, and tireless fund raising efforts by the Ladies Guild, the newly completed church building was consecrated at Christmas 1913 by the Rt. Rev. William Ford Nichols, second bishop of the Diocese of California.

Combining the Community and Discipleship Commissionsby Ed Fincke

The vestry has approved combining the Community Commission and the Discipleship Commission. Community ministries include social events, and parish dinners, while Discipleship ministries include Bible studies and spiritual retreats. These and other ministries of the two commissions frequently overlap, (e.g., we like to eat while we study) so it is natural for the two to merge. Additionally, there is no one actively leading

the Community Commission, and members of the Discipleship Commission will fill this role. This may be a temporary merger until we grow and are able to staff a separate Community Commission.

DiscipleshipNeeded: Lay Eucharistic MinistersWe have a number of parishioners who cannot attend Sunday services yet still want to receive Holy Communion once in a while. We need licensed people who can make home visits and administer

the sacraments. We can arrange the appropriate training. If you are interested, please call the office. 624-3883, or call Claudia Ward: 373-5069.

The Joy of Repentanceby Bill Reed

When a major candidate for president 2016, and a Christian, recently said that he had never asked for forgiveness, I paused--after I laughed. It is not possible that a Christian, or anyone for that matter, would never ask for forgiveness. In fact, a Christian would ask for forgiveness daily. Daily we are aware, if we are cultivating any self-knowledge, that along with our virtues, we have vices. We often fall short of the high mark the Gospel sets for us, and so we make it a practice to repent, and repent often, joyfully.

Yes, joyfully. The association of repentance with sadness is not

a genuinely Christian one. “Repent and believe in the Gospel.” Repentance is deeply embedded with a belief in the God who is Mercy, manifested chiefly in the self-giving of His Son and His Spirit. Repentance is God’s way of grasping us in the deepest recesses of our hearts and claiming us as His own. He moves us to turn away from the false person we can be and embrace the true person in living and fruitful relationship with God and all of His creatures. Repentance enacts a daily transformation in God, that brings us all the fruits of His Holy Spirit, but chiefly love and joy. Even if we are running for president of the United States.

All Saints’ Book Clubby Alison Craig

In last year’s September magazine, we spoke about what a blessing the All Saints’ Book Club was to its members and to the church. In the last year we’ve seen some dear Book Club friends move away, but we have also increased our membership with a number of new participants—extending the blessing of the Book Club. As people move in and out of the Book Club, we find it changing—new views, new books, new blessings…

What is the All Saints’ Book Club?For those who are just hearing about the All Saints’ Book

Club, we’re a social club where we read and discuss books, plays or essays chosen by the group—both secular and spiritual. The Book Club meets the second Tuesday of each month in the church library from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. We have a salad dinner before our discussion—lettuce supplied by the facilitator for that month and the other members bringing other food to share. A lively, free and open discussion follows dinner; all views are recognized and valued. Diversity of ideas is another blessing the Book Club engenders.

Which books is the Book Club reading?One can also see the diversity in the literature we choose

just by looking at the last four books scheduled for this year. In September we have a book on spirituality and reflections on Christian love—Set Your Hearts on the Greatest Gift: Living the Art of Christian Love by Morton Kelsey. October’s fiction selection, a psychological thriller, is Kate Wilhelm’s The Good Children. November’s selection is Cheryl Strayed’s autobiographical Wild:

From Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail, from which the recent motion picture “Wild” starring Reese Witherspoon is based. We’ll end the year with a foreign author selection—City of Lies: Love, Sex, Death and the Search for Truth in Tehran written by the British-Iranian journalist Ramita Navai, whose premise is that in order to survive in a repressive regime one has to lie.

We’d love to have you join us at one or more meetings. Come by and try us out the second Tuesday of any month in the church library (6:00 p.m.). Come by and add to our blessings. All are welcome!

If you wish to have more information about the All Saints’ Book Club, please contact Kathy Nielsen, [email protected].

Treasurer’s Report – July 31, 2015by Dave McClendon

July was our first month without Fr. Rick on the payroll as he retired after June 30, 2015. We agreed to continue his health insurance for one extra month (July) so that he and Andrea could make a smooth transition to their private coverage program starting August 1, 2015.

After making significant mid-year budget revisions starting July 1, the landscape is very different from the first half of the year. With a temporary lowering of our expenses until we bring our new Priest in Charge on line, we ended July in the black by $3,403.29.

We still face sobering challenges ahead, but I’m sure you are now all aware of the extraordinary news that we have received a very generous bequest of $250,000. Additionally, we also received an advance distribution from the estate of Jeanette Goudzward in the amount of $50,000 with about another $25,000 to arrive in October of this year, with which we are buying our organ.

While these generous bequests are indeed wonderful news, we need to work hard to rebuild our Church so that we do not have to rely on these random gifts. We are setting aside a significant portion of Mrs. Lopez’ bequest, and using about $30,000 of it to finance a number of capital projects around the church. So let us be responsible stewards so that those future generations can look back and appreciate what was passed on to them, just as we look back in thanks for what has been passed on to us.

Last month we asked for ideas for this parish publication, formerly known as the Parish Patter and more recently, as the seasonal monthly magazine. Surely we can do better than that! We received a number of suggestions, from which the vestry has picked four which we will put on a ballot and pass out on two successive Sundays, since people don’t always attend every week. But please just vote once! We will announce the winner by October 4th.

OutreachNews from St. Patrick’s School, Haitiby Rosemary Smith

Thanks to the well provided by California Friends of St. Patrick’s, which includes All Saints’, the children of the school and the village have drinking water, but the severe drought starting in February in Haiti has caused crop and livestock losses. The tropical storms that usually come in the summer have fizzled.

As school starts, parents are asked to contribute tuition money for their children. These are extremely poor families and too often the choice is to take the children out of school.

Can you contribute $20.00 to keep a child in school? This would cover a year’s studies. This small amount would be SO gratefully received.

Checks should be made out to All Saints’, memo Haiti.Thank you!

Outreach

OUTREACH MINISTRY IN ACTION: I-HELP PROGRAMby Grace Nola, I-HELP volunteer coordinator, Outreach Commission

“I am very grateful to have a place to stay,” commented I-HELP client, Reid Bennett, 62. A native of the Monterey Peninsula, Bennett said, “If it weren’t for this program and the churches that provide shelter, I would be out on the curb in the cold. It’s been great meeting volunteers from churches in the area.”

Once a month, All Saints’ Outreach ministry provides a night of shelter, a hot meal, and fellowship to I-HELP program clients currently experiencing homelessness on the Monterey Peninsula. For more than twenty years, All Saints Church has participated as part of a local network of congregations and community groups that provide this service on a monthly rotation. Twice a year the All Saints’ Day School eighth grade class hosts the monthly

I-HELP dinner here at the church, giving the students an opportunity to directly interact with people in need in our community.

If you would like to volunteer or have questions regarding our I-HELP program or Outreach Ministry, contact Hans Lehmann, Outreach Commission 831.624.0540.

From All Saints’ Day SchoolDear All Saints’ Friends,We’ve started out the year with a bang at All Saints’ Day School!

We began school on Tuesday, August 25th with our First Day Chapel. Coats Hall, the gym that we turn into a chapel, was jam-packed with students, faculty, alums and parents. Every student in 1st through 8th grades, as well as all the faculty and staff, brought their backpacks, bags, and briefcases, for our annual “Blessing of the Backpacks.” (It’s always fun to throw holy water around on a warm morning!) Prayer and laughter is an excellent way to begin our year together as a community.

Earlier this week in Chapel, I preached on the Parable of the Mustard Seed. I used a different translation, which instead of comparing the Kingdom of God using a mustard seed that grows into a tree, used a pine nut that grows into a pine tree. I talked about the 100 year old pine tree that had grown on our family property… how we picnicked under it the week our son was born, how we hung Tarzan ropes and tried to swing from limb to limb, how screech owls had called from somewhere in its branches. It too had been as little as a pine nut, but when it died, the taproot had grown so deep and big, that my husband could not dig it out, even with a backhoe.

The kingdom of God begins with something as small as a pine nut – a kind word, a prayer for someone in need, an idea for a school that was God’s idea, which grows into a reality that flourishes, and sets down deep, enduring roots of history and heritage – and this is an important image for us now. Michele Rench, who has been our wonderful Head of School for 12 years, is retiring in mid-September. Jim Lusby, an experienced Episcopal School administrator, will be taking up the reins as the Interim Head, and you will be hearing more about him in a later newsletter. We will celebrate Michele’s tenure and retirement at a special Chapel at the school on Wednesday, September 16th.

All Saints’ Day School is like that flourishing pine tree with a large and deep root system. Even with a leadership change, the school itself, and all that we do together as a community – busy class days, Chapel, outreach, sports, Shakespeare plays and so much more – will continue to flourish, for we are rooted in the God who nourishes and supports us. Thanks be to God!

The New Organ ConsoleMusical changes are wafting in the air for our church in the form of a newer, more versatile, and larger Allen Renaissance organ. It will replace the rapidly failing instrument Clay Couri has been nursing along for the past 4 years.

The replacement organ has been gently used in a private home and was available because it’s owner could not fit it into his new home. Our organ committee had been wrestling with the rapid failure of our instrument, knowing that a pipe organ could cost nearly 2 million, and a brand-new digital, about 200 thousand. When Clay inquired about the possibility of locating a gently used instrument, Rob Lindquist of Allen Organs told him about this one, available for 75 thousand. The price includes state of the art audio, tear-out of the old instrument, full installation and a 2 year warranty. At the same time, All Saints’ received notice of a bequest in that exact amount of money as an un-restricted gift! This propitious confluence can only be the action of the Holy Spirit!!

The new organ has four manuals, about 95 ranks, a full MIDI system with about 65 additional voices, tuning schemes to accommodate any music from Medieval through contemporary, and virtual acoustics to give the music much more life. This new instrument will be a perfect accompaniment to our choir and also for solo use.

The tear-out of the old instrument will begin immediately following the 10:30 service on Sept 13th. The acoustical screens have to be removed to allow removal of the old, and installation of the new, state of the art audio systems. It’s expected that the installation will be complete by end of the day, Tuesday. Rob Lindquist and Clay Couri will then begin voicing the new instrument, a process which could take 2-3 days.

Clay will then start learning the complexities of the new console. He’ll debut the organ at the 10:30 service on Oct 4th. Richard Wilson will be on vacation, and will play on Oct 11th. Clay will also meet with Pam Lawrence to familiarize her with the new instrument. It will take some time to learn how to use all the features of this instrument, but be assured this will be a joyous process of discovery for us who play it, and for all of us to experience as it begins its service in the rich tradition of our musical service in the worship of our Lord.

Please join all of us on the Organ Committee in celebration on October 4th, and every Sunday following with our new Allen Renaissance organ!
