The Parish Postings THE PARISH OF ST. CLEMENT

An Inclusive and Caring Christian Community Vol.86 No.7 July 2015

From Rev. Liz

Liz+

This summer, the worship schedule will change to one Sunday service at 9:00am, with the adult discussion and Bible Workbench gathering immediately after the service. The Sunday service will be Rite II with hymns and organ accompaniment. The choir and Family Ministries staff will have the summer off, but there will be nursery care in the parish house.

Why are we doing this? We’ve had a couple of summers when the Family Ministries staff has either taken off or had an abbreviated program but I don’t think the choir has been off for probably 10 years. The choir director, choir, and Sunday school staff need some time off before they get burned out. It’s quite a commitment to prepare every week for Sunday morning, especially when most of the folks in these two ministries are volunteers. Summer is a good time to try this because our lives seem to slow down during July and August and a 9:00 service is neither too early nor too late. One service will give both congregations the opportunity get to know one another a little better and will certainly give the 7:30 congregants the opportunity for hymns and singing during the service. The hymns will be relatively easy to pick up or relatively well-known for Episcopalians so we can make a joyful noise together. I’m also hoping this gives time for coffee and the paper before the service and provides a longer day for those who normally attend the 10:15 service. There’s always a concern that a change will result in lost congregants. Maybe this change will encourage people to join us! We’ll be asking the Sunday morning crowds over the first couple of July Sundays to submit the names of their favorite hymns. We’ll work them into the services over the summer.

Directory Additions and Corrections

Choir News

Many of you know that our choir director, Mark Haworth, is now in the postulancy process toward ordination to the diaconate and priesthood. Normally, the bishop assigns a postulant to another parish during his or her second year in the program. This means that Mark would leave St. Clement’s at the end of this year and become a liturgical assistant with another congregation on Oahu beginning in January, 2016.

As Mark and I discussed the summer schedule, it sounded like a good idea to both of us that he step down as choir director in the fall so he can take on more liturgical responsibilities during his last three months with us. This would also allow an interim director to work with the choir from the beginning of the church program year and into Christmas, making for a smoother musical transition. And it will also help the rest of us get used to seeing Mark in different roles before he is reassigned by the bishop. This is an important step for Mark as he moves through the postulancy process. I hope we can all support him on his journey. If you have any questions, please feel to talk with me or with Mark.

The Goldings Like This -

“Saints”

From now, and throughout 2015, the Golding family will share some of their “Likes” with you as a fun little “getting to know you” exercise. Chris likes St. Benedict of Nursia (c. 480-547), founder of the Order of St. Benedict and Abbot of Monte Cassino. Benedict established the first monastic communities in Western Europe and wrote what has been described as a “firm but reasonable rule” for the brothers and sisters of the Order. The Rule of Benedict continues to bring guidance and inspiration to both monastic and non-monastic communities around the world. Benedict is remembered in the Episcopal Church on July 11.

Julia likes St. Hildegard of Bingen (c. 1098-1179), a Benedictine abbess and visionary. Hildegard studied music as part of monastic life, and later produced a variety of liturgical music. As a visionary, she was blessed with an array of mystical experiences. Some of these were so vivid that she felt that she had experienced the Divine through all her five senses. Hildegard is remembered in the Episcopal Church on September 17.

Phoebe likes St. Phoebe (1st century), deacon of the early church and companion of St. Paul the Apostle. Phoebe is referenced in Paul’s Letter to the Romans (Chapter 16.1-2). She was intrusted to deliver the Letter to the Church in Rome. Phoebe is also referred to as a “patron of many,” a highly regarded position in the culture of the time. Phoebe is arguably one of the first women of the church to have a formal ministry role. Although far from the structured ordained ministry that exists in the church today, Phoebe’s role of senior servant leadership helped to shape the development of later Christian ministry. Although not remembered in the Episcopal Church, Phoebe is commemorated in Roman Catholic and Orthodox Churches on September 3, and in the Lutheran Church on October 25.

James likes St. James, son of Zebedee (1st century, died c. 44), one of Jesus’ Twelve Apostles. He is sometimes referred to as “James the Great” to distinguish him from a number of other Saints named “James.” The son of Zebedee and Salome, James was the brother of the Apostle John (the beloved disciple). The biblical witness mentions that James is one of the three Apostles to bear witness to the Transfiguration, and the Acts of the Apostles (Chapter 12.1-2) records his death as a martyr, executed by King Herod. James is well-known in modern times, particularly through the “Way of St. James,” the pilgrimage of Santiago de Compostela. Over 235,000 pilgrims walk the journey each year (individuals choose a journey ranging from 60 to 380 miles) as a way of spiritual growth, retreat, and self-discovery. James is remembered in the Episcopal Church on July 25.

July 17 marks the six month anniversary of our family’s arrival in Hawai’i, and commencing my ministry at St. Clement’s.

In doing a quick Google search for “six month anniversaries” for this article, I find lots of puppy love romance stories, many of them between teenagers, keen to celebrate their short but intense relationships. And there are lots of sickly sweet sayings, like “You are the peanut to my butter” and “You are the water to my ocean.” Normally, I balk at any overly romanticized version of love, relationships, or partnerships. But somehow, when it comes to the Parish of St. Clement, I quickly set aside any squeamishness over such matters. Too often parish churches have been places where the expectations of what is “right,” “good,” and “proper” has been controlled, often by a small group of individuals craving attention, power, or control. Sadly, many communities I worshipped at and ministered to in Australia fit this description. Dysfunction was okay if it operated to single out those who were “not like us.” While I have no doubt that the American church is not immune to this sort of behavior, St. Clement’s is thankfully and joyously different. This is why, when it comes to “St. Clem’s,” I don’t hesitate to say, “I am in love with this place.” Finally, a community where all are accepted and included (not simply tolerated!). Finally a church where it is not about conforming to the norm, but walking the Way as a full version of myself. I’ve had, and still have, many loves in my life, but when it came to parish community, I never thought I’d use that word, never mind get gushy about it. But St. Clement’s, you’ve won me over. So while every love story is beautiful, ours is my favorite! ~~ Peace and blessings Chris+

Every Love Story is Beautiful but

Ours is My Favorite

P.S. This is definitely gushy, Rev. Chris! Liz+

Vestry Highlights June 2015

The vestry met on June 9, 2015. Highlights include: The vestry welcomed two guest speakers to start off the meeting: • Mark Haworth came to discuss his ordination program. • Julia Golding came to discuss Mainly Music, a wonderful

outreach program designed to bring community families with babies and toddlers together with music.

The Listening Process will be starting in July with help from the vestry, so stay tuned. The maintenance of the Loo Parish House was discussed. • The things that currently need to be done are painting and

refinishing the floors. Rev. Chris discussed supporting James Fitzpatrick in the Young Adult Service Corps. It was decided that he will be invited to speak to the vestry at its July meeting.

~~ Submitted by Steve Kramer Clerk of the Vestry

The next meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, July 14, at 6 pm. Parishioners are welcome and encouraged to attend the Vestry Meetings. We serve a light supper prior to the meeting and enjoy having visitors.

Happy Fathers Day 2015!

We’ll cheer at the game, but never at church. What would people think of us? Pews haven't been sold for at least a century, but this is my pew. Stand, sit, kneel, stand, kneel: it’s quite a good workout for a Sunday morning. The choir’s away and the rest of us suddenly have lost our voices.

We are a broad church, have been from the very start. That’s why we have fights. Book of Common Prayer needs a more modern label: user’s manual. Only life prepares Sunday School teachers for the daunting task ahead. A vestry of nine often will be split at least eighteen diff’rent ways.

Episcopal Haiku The haiku is a multilayered and complex poetic form originating in Japanese culture, characterized by a three-line construction, 17 syllables, and requiring deep contemplative thought. Taken from “Episcopal Haiku” by Sarah Goodyear and Ed Weissman.
