wherever possible and put together plans for the
next decade.
Another goal is to continue supporting our
Children’s ministry. Amy and Anders have com-
mitted to building and strengthening our ministry
with children and the results have been very
encouraging. We need to address the space we
have designated for this ministry and we need to
invest in making sure that our space is attractive
and effective. Moreover, I hope that we can see
our children serving at the Altar on a regular
basis and taking an active role in our worship of
the Triune God. It is a cliché to say that children
are the future of the Church, but we must be
committed to growing our ministry with children
and families in our neighborhood. Pray about
what this might look like and consider how you
might contribute your time, talent, and resources
to strengthen this ministry.
I would also like for us to work toward put-
ting together a newcomer committee: a group of
parishioners committed to following up with
guests and making sure that they are welcomed
into our community.
It was wonderful to hear from our various
leaders at our Annual Meeting and to focus our
attention on the faithful work that goes on at our
parish Church. I am convinced that God has
exciting things in store for us this year. I ask for
your continued support, your prayers, and above
all else I encourage you to remain joyful in the
Lord who is the head of the Church and the au-
thor of our salvation. To Him be the glory from
generation to generation.
Under His mercy,
Father Zachary Thompson
Dear friends of the Church of Our Saviour,
What is the role of the Church of Our
Saviour? What is our mission in this pocket
of God’s world? I hope you’ll stop reading
and take a few minutes to write something
down in response to these questions.
Now ask yourself: what do we need to
do to more faithfully engage in our mission?
Lastly, what are your hopes and dreams
for the Church of Our Saviour?
If you feel compelled, please do send
me your responses.
At our Annual Meeting in January we
elected five new members to the Vestry and I
am excited about our work together in 2016.
One of my goals is to put together a visionary
and effective Building and Grounds Commit-
tee that takes seriously our continued stew-
ardship of the Church’s built environment.
Our building and grounds are an outward
sign of our shared life in Christ, and we need
to continue to address deferred maintenance

Shrove Tuesday Pancake Supper and Hymn-Sing
Tuesday, February 9, 2016 6:00 pm
Members of Our Saviour’s Vestry will serve a pancake supper from 6:00 to 7:00 pm on Tuesday, February 9, 2016. A contribution is requested to defray expenses. From 7:00 to 8:00 pm, our organist and choir director, Dr. Daniel Pyle, will lead a hymn-sing. For $5, we will sing a hymn of your choice from The 1982 Hymnal (if you want to sing something else, you’ll need to provide copies of it). The proceeds will go to support our outreach programs.
Ash Wednesday The First Day of Lent February 10, 2016
This year, Lent will begin on Ash Wednes-day (February 10, 2016) with services at 7:00 am, 12 noon and 7:30 pm. The 7:00 am services will be in the Lady Chapel and the 12 noon and 7:30 pm service in the Church. All will consist of the Liturgy for Ash Wednesday, including Imposi-tion of Ashes and Penitential Order. According to The Book of Common Prayer, Ash Wednesday is to be kept both as a Fast, on which the faithful abstain from food, and as a Day of Special Devotion, observed by special acts of dis-cipline and self-denial.
Parish Luncheon February 7, 2016
Our regular First Sunday meal will be held after the 11:00 Eucharist on February 7, 2016. Those with last names beginning in A-H are asked to bring a main dish, I-R a side dish, and S-Z a dessert.
The Presentation of Our Lord
Jesus Christ in the Temple (also called Candlemas)
February 2, 2016 12:10 pm
February 2 is the Feast of the Presenta-tion—sometimes called Candlemas because of the emphasis on Christ as “a light to enlighten the nations.” (Song of Simeon—Luke 2:28). We will observe Candlemas at Our Saviour on Tuesday, February 2, 2016 at the noonday ser-vice. You are invited to bring candles from home to be blessed—large ones or small ones—that can be used throughout the year to represent the light of Christ present in our lives as Christians. If Candlemas be fair and bright, Come, Winter, have another flight; If Candlemas brings clouds and rain, Go Winter, and come not again.
Events During February The Feast Days are major feasts listed in our Book of Common Prayer.

Hymns By Dr. Daniel Pyle
Of the various activities that go on during
a worship service, other than the sacraments themselves, the hymns that we sing leave the deepest, most lasting impressions. The reason that this is so may be explained better by a psy-chologist than a musician, but it is probably con-nected to the facts that hymns are something which we do (rather than listen to someone else doing) and that we not only say the words but sing them. Saying something makes a deeper im-pression in one’s mind than merely hearing it said, and singing it makes that impression even deeper.
The impression left is yet further deepened because it is a communal activity: we are all singing together. The act of singing together reinforces the sense that each of us is joined with the other members of the body (in the sense of being part of the group, but even more in the sense that Saint Paul used the phrase, as constitu-ent parts of Christ’s Body). When we speak to-gether (as when we say the Creed,) there is the feeling that we are part of the group, but one voice more or less makes a minimal difference. However, when we sing together God’s praises, or pray to Him in song, because the presence or absence of any individual voice makes a discern-able difference, that feeling of being an integral part of the Body is all the stronger.
So, what is a hymn? It is a metrical, strophic song, dedicated to the praise of (a) God —the word itself predates Christianity, going back to Classical Greece. To say it is metrical means that it is in a poetic meter, with a regular pattern of accented and unaccented syllables. Most hymns (though not all) are also rhymed, especially the English and Latin ones. To say that it is strophic means that it is constructed in several verses (more properly, stanzas or strophes, hence the term “strophic”), each one of which is in a similar or identical metrical struc-ture to the others.
The definition of a hymn as a metrical, strophic song is made clearer by considering a song in our Hymnal which is not a hymn. The
Easter song “Christians, to the Paschal Victim offer your thankful praises” (no. 183) consists of eight verses. However, each verse has a different number of lines and syllables, and a different pat-tern of accentuation (which corresponds to the “beats” in music). Because each of these verses is so different in rhythmic character, this song is not strophic and therefore not a hymn (it is a form of song called a sequence.)
Since a hymn is a song, it has two aspects: the words and the music. Technically, the term “hymn” refers primarily to the poem. Thus, we speak of Charles Wesley (for example) as a writer of hymns, although he did not compose any music.
The melodies to which we sing the hymns are referred to as “hymn tunes.” Most church-goers associate one tune with a text (usually the one they grew up singing,) but most old hymnals were printed with texts only and no music what-soever. It was the task of the organist or music director to match up a tune with the text. The very first book printed in the English colonies in North America, the Bay Psalter (printed in 1640), was just such a book—metrical versions of the Psalms for congregational and devotional sing-ing, but without any music printed.
However, in different times and places and denominations there are often different traditions associating tunes with texts. Many in our parish will have grown up singing Charles Wesley’s hymn “Love divine, all loves excelling” to the tune “Hyfrydol” (as it is in our hymnal at no. 657), but an equal number will likely have grown up singing it to the tune “Beecher,” which is in our hymnal at no. 470 with the text “There’s a wideness in God’s mercy.”
Some modern hymnals acknowledge the fact that some hymns are associated with various tunes in different traditions, by supplying two or occasionally more tunes for a single hymn. As an example from our current hymnal, nos. 448 and 449 are the same hymn, “O love, how deep, how broad, how high”; but they are different tunes. One is called “Deus tuorum militum,” an English melody from the 1750s, and the other is called “Deo gracias,” which is also an English tune but from about 300 years earlier. (It was originally

Readings for February February 7, 2016 Last Sunday after Epiphany Exodus 34:29-35 & 2 Corinthians 3:12-4:2 Luke 9:28-36, [37-43a] & Psalm 99 February 10, 2016 Ash Wednesday Joel 2:1-2,12-17 & II Corinthians 5:20b-6:10 Matthew 6:1-6,16-21 & Psalm 103 or 103:8-14 February 14, 2016 First Sunday in Lent Deuteronomy 26:1-11 & Romans 10:8b-13 Luke 4:1-13 & Psalm 91:1-2, 9-16 February 21, 2016 Second Sunday in Lent Genesis 15:1-12,17-18 & Philippians 3:17-4:1 Luke 13:31-35 & Psalm 27 February 28, 2016 Third Sunday in Lent Exodus 3:1-15 & 1 Corinthians 10:1-13 Luke 13:1-9 & Psalm 63:1-8
sung with a text celebrating Henry V’s victory over the French in the battle of Agincourt.) Even more noteworthy are the two Christmas hymns “O little town of Bethlehem” and “It came upon a midnight clear”—anyone who listens to the Lessons and Carols from King’s College, Cam-bridge, each Christmas will have noticed that the English do not sing these songs to the “right” melodies; but both pairs are represented in our hymnal.
There is a great deal of information about these matters found in the Hymnal itself. At the end of each hymn are found three important facts. There is a line which tells the author (and, if appropriate, translators and editors) of the poem. Directly underneath it is a line that tells two things: first, the name of the tune (which appears in italics), and then the name of the com-poser (or arranger or source) of the melody.
For example, one might look at nos. 383 and 384. Both are settings of the hymn “Fairest Lord Jesus.” Below no. 383 one finds that the words are a conflation of several German texts, which translated into English were published in New York in 1850, but altered by the editors of the 1982 Hymnal (indicated by the “alt.”). The melody is a tune named “Saint Elizabeth,” the composer of which is unknown, but was pub-lished in a collection called Schlesishce Volks-lieder (Folksongs from Schleswig, a province partly in Germany and partly in Denmark) in 1842, and presented here in a harmonization by the Anglo-American organist T. Tertius Noble. The hymn no. 384 is the same text, and the infor-mation below it tells us exactly the same about the words (because they are the same), but the music is called “Schoenster Herr Jesu” (which is simply the German for “Fairest Lord Jesus”), that it comes from a German hymnal called Muenster Gesangbuch of 1677, and that the harmonization of the melody is the one that was prepared for The English Hymnal in 1906 (perhaps by its mu-sic editor, Ralph Vaughan Williams). It can be interesting to look at this infor-mation and get a sense of the varieties of music in the 1982 Hymnal and an appreciation of the history of many of our hymns.
Congratulations to the New Vestry
At the annual meeting on Sunday, January 10, 2016, the parish elected five new members to the vestry. They are Jim Gerhart, Mike Sanderson, Alexis Liefermann, Dowman Wilson and Eric Henken. Jim is fulfilling the one-year unexpired term of Gus Brathwaite who moved away while Mike was elected to the newly created two-year position. After the Annual Meeting ended the Vestry met and elected Eric to the position of Junior Warden and Dowman to the position of Secre-tary. Bert will continue to fill the position of Senior Warden.

Treasurer’s Quarterly Report For the year ending December 31, 2015, Operating Fund revenue and expenses were both under budget. This result was a surplus of just over $13,000 for the year—despite spending for a few items that arose after the budget was passed. Thank you (all) for your faithfulness in contributing and carefulness in managing our expenses. The annual budget and comparative revenue and expenses for the year-to-date for the operating fund are summarized in the table below and illustrated in the nearby chart. Revenue for the year was about 1% under budget, while expenses ended about 6% under budget for the year-to-date. Overall, prior year comparison is not considered meaningful on the whole, due to the addition of a full-time priest and correspondent diocesan support. However, review of the indi-vidual revenue and expense categories indicate that we were in line with the prior year and general-ly maintained our finances reasonably in line with our budget.

Turning to 2016, we have received five fewer pledges and about $23,000 less in total than we based our budget on for 2015. This represents about a 10% decrease overall in our anticipated operating fund revenue, which will impact the choices we make as we are not an endowed par-ish. It is my hope that, despite this, we will work to find ways for our parish to continue to grow in our mission and ministry. Over the latter part of January, the Finance Com-mittee and Vestry will engage in prayerful con-sideration, focusing on how best to utilize the resources we have and adopting a budget for 2016. I will share that with you in the next Angelus.
There were several other financial items of note that occurred over the past year that I want to share:
A number of repair and maintenance items that had remained on our “to do” list were completed through the course of the year, with the vestry allocating $15,000 for repairs at the rectory and $30,000 for repairs around the church and parish house from the Hower Bequest; $10,500 from an anonymous parishioner’s generous gift, also used for repairs in the parish house; and $13,000 from the Chamberlain Permanent Fund for replace-ment of the flooring in Pettway Hall.
Over the course of the year, the parish’s outstanding mortgage debt was reduced to about $168,500 through scheduled pay-ments from the Operating Fund and gen-erous, freewill offerings of almost $12,000.
We consolidated our internet and tele-phone service with GAP, adding addition-al Wi-Fi boosters in the parish house. The effort had some one-time costs that were recorded in 2015, but will allow for cost-savings of about 40% for each.
In 2015, we completed an accounting re-view by an outside CPA firm, as required by the diocese. Generally, the items noted were not significant and indicated steps which we have taken to strengthen our practices. This provided an opportunity for me, still relatively new to the position of treasurer, to review our accounting controls.
I want to take a point of personal privilege to reit-erate my gratitude for the parishioners and staff who support the treasurer: Dowman Wilson, our receiving treasurer; Dowman and Grant Glass-book, who faithfully record our contributions; Ellen Hopkins, our bookkeeper; and Eph McLean, Michael Palmer, Claude Chattin, Joy McKnight, and Father Thompson, who formed the finance committee for 2015.

Stewardship By Brian Mullaney
Thank you, greatly, to everyone who com-pleted a pledge card and returned it. With respect to financial pledges: as of the first of the year, we received 42 pledges with a total amount pledged for 2016 of $152,790. Last year, there were 47 pledges with a total amount pledged for 2015 of $175,560. If you haven’t yet made a financial pledge, you still can. While the budget for the year will have been adopted (before publication of this column), your pledge is welcomed and appreciated at any time. It’s never too late and additional pledges will be considered by the vestry as the year progresses. Nearly every financial pledge card was also accompanied by a commitment of time and talent. For these: thank you. Our parish administrator, Tif-fany McGehee, has forwarded new requests to the committee and guild chairmen. If you haven’t yet made a pledge of time and talent or are looking for new ways to serve in the life of this parish, you are welcome and encouraged to explore joining a (another) guild or committee. Father Thompson is also available if you want to explore further how your gifts might fit in the work of this parish. While the Every Member Canvass is most visible in the fall, when we offer our pledges for the coming year, stewardship doesn’t end then. Stew-ardship is living out a commitment to be Christ-centered. In a variety of ways, we, as disciples of Christ, share our time, talent, and treasure, building God’s kingdom on earth. Jesus talks more about money and possessions than any other single topic except the Kingdom of God. And when He speaks of the Kingdom of God, He often does so in parables that are interwoven with speaking of money and wages and the like. For some reason this makes us uncomfortable—as I was
raised, money was one of three topics that simply wasn’t discussed in polite company. (Religion was another of the three, so I am probably already “skating on thin ice”!) And yet, as the Reverend Kirk Kubicek, Rector of Saint Peter’s Church in Ellicott City, Maryland, puts it, “I know the money I give to the church reflects my commitment to Jesus and the work He calls us to do as his body in the world.” Father Kubicek makes these three points about Good Stewardship, about drawing closer to God: First, Accepting Grace: “Good Stewardship means accepting that the difference between what we say and what we do is reconciled by God in Christ Jesus. This is the gospel we have been given to preach: a gospel of forgiveness and love, a gospel of Amazing Grace.… I believe it is our acceptance of God’s forgiveness and grace that frees us to be more generous and giving persons ourselves. For it is in this acceptance that we come to both recog-nize and acknowledge all of life as a gift.” Second, Doing the Best We Can: “My per-sonal corollary and mantra, following from an in-creased awareness of God’s grace in my own life, suggests that everyone is already doing the best they can from wherever they are in their life in Christ. This is one way of saying that I am willing to offer toward others the same grace God lavishes on me.” Third, No Average Pledge: “There is no average pledge. As tempting as it is to figure out and publish abroad what the “average pledge” in the parish may be, doing so is probably singularly unhelpful. We all know the story of the widow’s mite. Her offering is way above average, even though on paper, in dollars and cents, it looked small compared to all those tithing Pharisees.” Stewardship is a year-round ministry and it goes to the heart of what it means to be a Christian: we offer up a portion of the time, talent, and treasure God has given each of us, and we do so joyfully. As Saint Paul explained in his letter to the new Christians at Corinth nearly 2,000 years ago: “Each one must do as he has made up his mind, not reluc-tantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheer-ful giver. And God is able to provide you with eve-ry blessing in abundance, so that you may always have enough of everything and may provide in abundance for every good work.” (II Corinthians 9:7-8)

Lenten Fasting By Oreta Hinamon Campbell
The Episcopal Church’s version of the Book of Common Prayer, in its Ash Wednesday service, summarizes the aims of Lent by inviting us to “the observance of a holy Lent, by self-examination and repentance; by prayer, fasting, and self-denial; and by reading and meditating on God’s holy Word.” Thus, Lent is a season of preparation for Easter, a time to prepare for renewing and recommitting oneself to living out one’s baptis-mal vows. This preparation begins with self-examination and repentance in order to purify oneself and to remove those parts of our life that interfere with our relationship with God. This inward search for purification should also be reflected outwardly, which brings us to another category of Lenten observance: prayer, fasting, and self-denial. Of these, fasting or abstinence is the disci-pline most unfamiliar to modern Christians. This despite the fact that fasting is one of the oldest methods of purifying and disciplining the spirit and is common to every religion except some branches of modern Protestantism. Fasting means not eating; abstinence means limiting one’s intake of food or giving up a kind of food. In the early church, the Lenten fasts, or more accurately, abstinences, limited the faithful to one meal a day, with no meat, no fish, no dairy products, no eggs, and no animal fats, although the English Church sometimes allowed limited animal fats, eggs and dairy products. Of course, over the years the forms and the severity of these fasts have varied. Fasting serves the Christian both by remov-ing some of the distractions of daily life which keep them from concentrating on God and as a means of self-discipline. In order for a body to be healthy it must be exercised. In order for the spirit to be healthy it must also be exercised. The prayer, fasting and self-denial of Lent are designed to discipline and strengthen the spirit just as aerobic workouts strengthen the cardio-vascular system. Lent can be viewed as basic training, a time to make spirits and minds fit for
Christ. The joys of Easter cannot be experienced fully without Lenten preparation any more than an athlete can run a marathon without training. However, it must always be remembered that these disciplines are not ends in themselves, but rather means to the end of strengthening our con-centration on God. In modern times the most common Lenten fast is the giving up of meat (except for fish) for forty days. Sundays during Lent are not fast days, and it is expected that for those for whom fasting would cause physical problems—those who are ill, or pregnant, or children—should not fast. In many churches it is customary that Ash Wednes-day and Good Friday are days of complete fast-ing, with no food taken except liquids. So here is an old recipe for a Lenten dish. This recipe dates back at least to 1390 (approximately) from a cookbook called The Forme of Cury.
Tart de Bry
Pastry for one open tart or 12 small tarts 8 oz of soft cheese, such as Brie 3 whole eggs (or 6 yolks) 1/4 tsp ginger 1/4 tsp salt 1 tablespoon sugar Scant pinch saffron (optional) Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees. Blind bake the
pastry shell for ten minutes. Pare the rind off the cheese, if you are using
Brie. Mash the cheese until smooth. In another bowl, blend eggs and seasoning. Mix together and beat until light and smooth. Pour into tart shell or shells. Do not fill more
than halfway because mixture will puff up during baking.
Bake for 20-25 minutes until lightly browned.
The tart will fall a bit when removed from the oven.
The original of this recipe, like most medieval recipes is vague. Amounts (and even the type of cheese) are not spec-ified. The version I use is from a cookbook called Pleyn Delit by Constance B. Hieatt, Brenda Hosington, and Sharon Butler (second edition.)
