The Bishop’s Corner

The Right Reverend Eric Vawter Menees

O ver the past six years the Diocese of San Joaquin has taken a bold stand for the faith which, not surprisingly,

resulted in lawsuits against Bishop Schofield, the Anglican Church Holding Corporation as well as the Rectors and Vestry-men of the Incorporated Parishes. The temptation for us as a diocese and congregations has been to be distracted from our Mission as Anglican Christians, hunker down and fight on. Thankfully, we have not given into that temptation. From the moment of my arrival in the diocese I have argued that either we truly embrace the Great Commission of Jesus Christ: “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have com-manded you." (Matthew 28:18-20) Or simply pack up and give into a culture that is increasingly pagan and an apathy that will surely kill us. I am pleased to say that in my travels around the diocese it is clear that we have taken up the mantel of the Great Commission! This is seen in our largest congregation, Our Lady of Guadalupe, which has over 800 people a Sunday and is growing, to our new-est ministry, Revive Anglican Fellowship at Fresno State Univer-sity. I was pleased to be at Trinity, Bakersfield for Trinity Sunday on June 15th. Trinity, has set a shining example of the power of keeping your eyes on mission and ministry. They lost their prop-erty in the Kern County decision and chose not to appeal. With-out losing a beat, they changed their name to Trinity Anglican

Church, found a new place to worship (Olive Drive Baptist Church graciously opened their doors), and moved forward in developing their mission which is to "Grow as Disciples of Jesus Christ through Worship, Fellowship, Learning and Outreach." They maintained and increased their emphasis on discipleship with the formation of small group ministry, catechism courses and bible studies. (What a pleasure it was to be with the nine confirmands and listen to them as they articulated their faith in Jesus!) They have expanded their prison ministry, ministry to the homeless, and those suffering with addiction. They have continued an emphasis on youth and the unborn through their support of the Pregnancy Care Center. Through it all they have maintained their membership and maintained a sense of identity and calling. This summer they have received my permission and that of the Standing Committee to purchase three acres of prime land to build a new church and ministry center upon. It is believed they will be worshiping in the new church within the next two years. Why have they been able to do that? Why have other congregations been able to make similar strides for the gospel? Because they have been focused on mission and ministry! In the midst of the uncertainty of the legal battles raging to protect the properties that God made us stewards of, it can be easy to fall into the temptation of cynicism or frustration. My prayer for each member of the diocese of San Joaquin, and for me as your bishop, is that we will be focused on the Kingdom of God and His righteousness.

News From the College of Bishops Bishop Menees attended the College of Bishop's at St. Vincent's Arch-Abby & College in Latrobe, PA from June 19-22. On June 22nd the Rt. Rev. Dr. Foley Beach was elected the 2nd Archbishop of the Anglican Church in North America and succeeded the Most Rev. Robert Duncan at the Provincial Assembly.

WHAT YOU NEED TO DO TODAY TO PROTECT YOUR MINISTRY TOMORROW

by John Pryor, Risk Management Consultant and member of Diocesan Council and Trinity Anglican Church, Bakersfield. Whether the problem is severe weather, an earthquake, pandemic illness, or security threats, churches—like any other service organization or business—need to have not only a disaster and emergency response plan – but also a continuity plan. How will you respond to the unexpected? Will you be ready to take action?

The record is full of organizations who survived the flood or earthquake or tornado, etc. – yet too many failed short-ly thereafter because of a lack of a continuity plan.

This nature of continuity planning is also relevant if a court decision leaves your church without its physical plant – and without all of its equipment, supplies, Altar Guild property, etc. This is an outcome our corporate sole church-es in the San Joaquin Diocese may be facing. It’s an outcome others have already confronted – including St. Paul’s Bakersfield – now Trinity Anglican.

Trinity’s experience in transitioning from St. Paul’s to Trinity and from 17th Street in downtown Bakersfield to a tem-porary location in northwest Bakersfield -- and now toward a permanent location in southwest Bakersfield -- can be a helpful model for your church leaders to consider and possibly to emulate.

Trinity learned a lot of lessons during the process.

First and foremost is the help of a “Ministry Continuity Plan” – a process in which every church needs to engage regardless of its size, the nature of its property, or the demographics of its congregation. It MUST be a proactive process -- accomplished well in advance of its need – and not a reactive effort to cope with each adversity as it arises.

Without a plan, it’s difficult to know what to do first. With a plan, you know what it will take to resume serving your people and your community. For example:

Do you have an emergency or disaster plan?

Does it include information about how to resume the “business” of ministry?

For instance, do you know where you’ll meet if your church is closed?

Do you know how you’ll be able to access church records?

Do you know how to take the essential steps to form a new legal entity, to select an acceptable new name?

Do you know how to address other organizational issues that will assuredly emerge?

If not, it may seem like a daunting task to pull this information together. However, out of the experience at St. Paul’s / Trinity – and from other valid sources – you can receive a step-by-step “process map” and other data on how to take your church through this difficult process – and retain (if not increase) your Average Sunday Attendance -- as has Trinity over the past 11 months.

These guidelines are yours for the asking. Just contact Corey McLaughlin in the Bishop’s office. He’ll be glad to email you a copy.

(continued on page 5)

Page 4 July 2014 THE SAN JOAQUIN ANGLICAN

July 2014 THE SAN JOAQUIN ANGLICAN Page 5

(continued from page 4)

You’ll immediately see that it’s NOT a simple process. There are a multitude of details. However, by creating a team that can start NOW and by using these guidelines, you and your congregation should be well prepared to work through this difficult process.

Even in the event of a positive outcome in the Diocesan litigation, this planning process should be part of your current leadership roles – both clergy and laity. Who knows when the next natural catastrophe – as opposed to this par-ticular “man-made disaster” – will interrupt your normal ministries and missions?

These guidelines will help in all such situations.

If you have questions, Corey will be available to field each. If he doesn’t have answers “at his fingertips” for you, he knows where to refer your questions.

The critical point is for you and your church leaders to begin this process now! Even if you're already well along in some elements of this planning process, you’ll find the information helpful.

Call or email Corey quickly!!!

Note: There are other resources available that can help you develop a disaster response and recovery plan. Here are a few you may want to consider:

Ready.gov This website has a wealth of information that can help churches, small businesses, and large organizations alike prepare for the worst and be ready to get back to business as quickly as possible following a disaster. There’s information about continuity of oper-ations planning and even a sample business emergency plan that churches and related ministries can use to get the planning process started. There’s also information that can help ministries educate employees and volunteers.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security and the Advertising Council designed Ready.gov to help Americans prepare for and respond to emergencies. The Ready Business section of Ready.gov helps leaders of small- and medium-sized businesses prepare their employees, operations, and assets in the event of an emergency.

RedCross.org Like Ready.gov, the American Red Cross provides a wealth of information to help businesses and other organizations like churches prepare for disasters and emergencies. The American Red Cross also offers training that can help workplaces be ready to respond.

Ministry-Specific Resources In addition to government and national resources like Ready.gov and the American Red Cross, there are several ministry-specific resources available to help you address your disaster planning efforts. Here are a few:

Hope Crisis Response Network: This not-for-profit organization helps communities address all stages of a disaster—the event it-self, relief and recovery efforts, and hazard mitigation. The website offers a variety of information, including a helpful publication, Disaster Planning for Churches that you may wish to review.

Church Disaster Mental Health Project: This organization was formed in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina to provide outreach and education to pastors and church leaders. While its goal is to assist with the psychological distress associated with a disaster, the website also provides information and resources about preparing for and responding to emergencies.

A Picante Pentecost!

The Congregations at St. James Cathedral (St. James and Our Lady of Guadalupe) gathered together the Sunday before last for a joint Pentecost service that filled Eden Hall with over 800 worshipers! Fr. Antonio Castaneda preached and Fr. Carlos Raines celebrated the Eucharist at a service that also included the consecration of over 20 people to engage in healing ministry for both congregations. There were numerous testimonies about the Holy Spirit and healings as well. Worship was led by the praise band of Our Lady of Guadalupe and by Eagle's Wings and the youth worship band (from St. James). Readings were in English and in Spanish and so were the prayers of the people, led extemporaneously from people from both congregations. Two other highlights were the Bag Piper, who led the opening procession with “Amazing Grace”, and the Afro-Caribbean members of St. James, who taught us how to dance our offerings up to the Altar! After the service the entire Hall was transformed into a dining facility by workers from Our Lady of Guadalupe and then a hearty lunch of chicken, beans and rice with desserts was put on by members of both congregations. In the testimonies, the most common theme was how deeply impressed people were at the unity and love brought about by the Holy Spirit who had brought together “people from every tribe, family, people and nation, a kingdom of priests to serve our God”! “And so to Him who sits upon the Throne and to Christ the Lamb be worship and praise, dominion and power for ever and for ever more!”

Revive An Anglican Congregation at Fresno State

This month has been full of change and new direction, some of it hard and some of it easy, and all of it good. We are meeting together once a week for prayer and fellowship at Anthony and Paula's home, which has been a blessing. We are also planning some other trips and fun activities during the summer, before school starts in the fall. I am finished raising my financial support! Thank you so much to all of you for helping to make this happen. Today, we had the first monthly prayer meeting for Christian clubs of all traditions on campus. We all came together in the Peace Garden to pray for Fresno State. God was there, and we were blessed to be together. Alexandra has been here for two weeks now. Together, we have begun working on the small plot for the community garden. We are busy digging and turning over the soil, and gathering supplies to build a small fence and walkway. It has been very healing to dig in the soil, and we look forward to burying seeds. I am mentoring a lovely young lady named Maggie this summer, as she prepares to be a camp counselor at our camps

It took hard work to get such a good-looking dirt!

Thank you! Thank you for all your continued

support financially, and with

prayers and ideas. Your hearts

and minds help make this possible.

Trinity Anglican Bakersfield Welcomes New DeaconTrinity Anglican Bakersfield Welcomes New DeaconTrinity Anglican Bakersfield Welcomes New Deacon

Trinity Anglican Church is delighted to announce the appointment of Deacon Joe Lawrence to the position of Assistant Rector – a role in Trinity Parish that includes:

leadership of Trinity’s Christian education, youth groups, and discipleship groups participation in worship services pastoral care parish administration

Many Trinity members will recall Dcn. Joe as he grew up in our parish while his father, (now) Bishop Mark Law-rence was our Rector for seven years until 2004. During that time, Dcn. Joe helped our youth ministry as an intern and led a contemporary music group -- mostly guitars that kids love to play and sing along. He also helped facilitate Bible studies and even did some teaching!

Dcn. Joe commented, “I am so grateful for the time I spent in this parish growing up. It was largely at this parish that I learned the scriptures, drank deeply from the Anglican way of worship, and matured in a community of disci-ples. Above all, this was the parish where I grew into a closer relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ.”

His educational accomplishments have been extensive and impressive:

He earned a bachelors degree in English Literature (with a minor in Philosophy) at Franciscan University in Steubenville, Ohio in 2008.

He earned a Master of Divinity from Trinity School for Ministry in Ambridge, PA just this past month. His ordination as a priest should occur in about six months.

Dcn. Joe's ministry experience also has prepared him very well. He served in these capacities after moving from Bakersfield:

Most recently -- 2012 to 2014 -- Youth Catechist, Adult Education, SubDeacon, and Mission Mobiliza-tion at Grace Anglican Church, Edgeworth PA

Fall of 2013, Chaplain to a Hospice in Pittsburgh PA Summer of 2013, adult education, preaching, and pastoral visitation at Parish Church of St. Helena,

Beaufort SC 2009 to 2011, pastoral visitation, Liturgical Deacon, and leadership of community bible studies at

Church of the Good Shepherd, Charleston SC

Dcn. Joe concluded, “What an exciting opportunity it is to return to Bakersfield and Trinity Anglican Church! I greatly look forward to working in this community of disciples and to building up more disciples of all ages. I am also very happy that my family, too, will know this parish as their home.”

Trinity Rector, Fr. Karl Dietze, said, “We are very excited about having Dcn. Joe, Joette, and their family join us here at Trinity. His passion for family ministry, both in his own home and for the people of God, will be a tremen-dous blessing to our church family.”

All at Trinity Anglican Church are looking forward to welcoming Dcn. Joe, his wife, Joette, and their three children: Samantha, age 5, Sophia, age 4, and Andrew, age 1.

Afternoon Worship Services at Columbus Estates During my intercessory prayer time, I asked the Lord what more could I do for Him since my mobility is limited to a walker and a scooter. I remembered, in the last year, that many of the residents plus the management approached me about leading a worship service at Columbus Estates. Many of the residents have disabilities which prevent them from going to church services on Sundays.

Easter afternoon I approached the manager about having a worship service in the Activity Room every Sunday at 4:00 pm and his response was, “How soon?” I told him I thought we could begin on May 4th. Then I started writing a Non-Denominational Worship Liturgy which I later shared with Deacon Skip Hill. We met on Friday and he told me that he wanted to support this ministry in any way he was needed. He has been so very helpful in printing the litur-gies, selecting familiar hymns from both a Baptist hymnal and from the set of three “Classic Hymns” CDs. During the service, he is very gifted leading the singing of the hymns for each service. Both of us share in leading the differ-ent parts of the liturgy, with me usually preaching the homily.

The Sunday attendance has continually grown from six to eight coming in May to sixteen worshiping our Lord on June 15th. After preaching on Pentecost about the power of the Holy Spirit, many people shared testimonies about how they were led to share the Gospel with a stranger and later found out that he died the following week. We all agreed about how important it is for each of us to support each other when we find one was taken from us. In the beginning, everyone took off after the last hymn was sung, but now they stay as long as they can before dinner. They just don't want to leave.

We're starting to form a community. A few have volunteered to read the lessons and lead the Prayers of the People. This Sunday, for the first time, we are offering Communion Under Special Circumstances after receiving a favorable response last Sunday.

What is also amazing is that our service is now listed in the monthly Columbus Estate Activities Calendar. On Sun-days, the manager announces where and when the services are during breakfast and lunch, and just before 4:00 pm, the manager again announces the service over the building's PA. What is amazing to me is that this secular company is voluntarily promoting the advancement of the Gos-pel.

I thank God for this op-portunity to honor and worship Him in a way and place I would have never experienced. “For with God nothing will be im-possible." (Luke 1:37)

IN CELEBRATION OF MARRIAGE On June 20th and 21st Russ Willingham, Executive Director of New Creation Ministries (located on the campus of St. James Cathedral in Fresno) led a marriage conference, entitled RADIANT MARRIAGE at The Bridge Church (in Fresno). This seminar on marriage was the culmination of 30 years of Russ’s counseling experience and study about what the Bible has to say about marriage. There was a good cross section of ages in attendance (it is never too late to work on your marriage!) Topics of discussion were: Changing the Things I Can; The Relational Hierarchy; Love Languages: what language do you speak and what language does your spouse speak - and learning to speak their language ; and, The Marriage Quadrangle: communication, fun, sex, and partnership. It was at times intense and contained a lot of valuable information to take in and digest and discuss down the road with each other.

After the seminar, 4 couples from St. James gathered at the local Spa-ghetti Factory for a time of relaxation, food, and fellowship. The weekend was capped off by 5 couples at St. James renewing their wedding vows at both services.

Safe Drinking Water Awakens Hope in South Sudan

“It’s important to have water for our bodies

and the Word of God for our souls.”

Eunice Azuwa, Anglican Mother’s Union Leader, Mambee

As the tragic civil war continues and catastrophic famine becomes a real possibility, it is

increasingly difficult to find signs of positive change in South Sudan. However, in the

Anglican Diocese of Olo Area Maridi, an ARDF-funded project is transforming lives by

providing clean drinking water and desperately needed hope to poor, rural communities.

The project has had an incredible impact:

15,000 People Now Have Access to Clean Water

Many people in South Sudan live in constant danger of waterborne diseases which keep par-

ents from working and children out of school, but thanks to ARDF’s partnership with the

Anglican Diocese of Olo Area Maridi, two rural communities now have deep wells that are

providing safe water to drink. Without the threat of disease, the community members’

health is improving along with their access to education and economic development.

4,667 People Were Reached With the Gospel

During and after the well-drilling, outreach and evangelism

teams conducted prayer sessions and Bible studies. A local

community leader named Godwill Hessin said, “I thank those

who were involved and supported the water project because

today, my people and I are safe because we are drinking clean

water…Through this project our faith has been [revived] both

spiritually and physically. Most of the people came to know the

love of God and the work of the church.”

(continued from page 12)

The Community Learned to See Themselves as God Sees Them

The poor often feel powerless, which is why ARDF supports projects that restore

their sense of dignity and self-confidence. By partnering with the people of Maridi

on this project the Diocese helped to build a sense of dignity and a belief that they

can continue to transform their own lives. Godwill also told us, “This project has

opened the mind of our community to understand their situation and also to use

their local resources to meet their needs.” We thank God not just for clean water,

but for a redeemed self-image in the people of Maridi.

Despite the Violence, God is Still at Work

When we tell the story of South Sudan, it is vital to remember that God is still at

work through His people–redeeming, saving, and changing lives. In fact, the An-

glican Church in South Sudan should be an incredible encouragement and inspi-

ration to us as its members live out the Gospel of Christ in some of the world’s

poorest communities. Over and over again at ARDF we see how our Anglican

brothers and sisters in the developing world—many of whom live in extreme

poverty themselves—experience God’s love so deeply that they are set free to

love their neighbors in tangible ways. Like Jesus, they see no contradiction be-

tween proclaiming the gospel boldly, and acting on behalf of the poor, bringing

both physical and spiritual healing. The Anglican Diocese of Olo Area Maridi is a wonderful example of how evangelism

and works of mercy both flow from Jesus’ command to love God and love our neighbor (Matthew 22:36-40). We pray that

the church in North America would also be set free to love the poor because of God’s radical grace.

Donate now and help ARDF empower Anglicans around the world to transform their own communities through sustaina-

ble projects like this one.
