THE GREETERSeptember 2015
FROM THE RECTOR
It’s time to act!
For years now, the parish and I have expressed an interest in obtaining an assistant priest. This has been a long stated goal which has been delayed due to the repayment of our building renovation loan. That loan is now fully paid off. Please understand that another priest is not a threat to me. I want and need another priest to assist me – and if they are better than I am in some areas, so much the better! Fortunately for us, we have the able and competent assistance of Fr. John Adams to help us understand just how valuable a different voice and skill set can add to the parish. We see what a difference he is making and what a difference someone else could make too. This September will be a critical month for us, more so than normal. It’s the start of Sunday school, our men’s group, the Episcopal Church women group, Wednesday Family Nights, and the Tuesday study group along with St. Monica’s Guild and altar guild meetings – I may be missing a group or two here. These are all normal; what will be different is that we are going to make a concerted effort to begin our stewardship drive on Labor Day weekend. By the end of the month of September, you will have those pesky pledge cards in your hands. And this year, more than ever, it will be important for you to fill them out promptly. Frankly, we need to know with some degree of confidence that we will have the funds in place to call an assistant, otherwise we would be ill advised to do so. Please, begin to have the discussion with your partner (if you have one) about what you will give to the church in 2016. I know that feels far away, but it will be here sooner rather than later. And please, please seek God’s guidance. The good news is that if everyone who pledged to the Capital Campaign this year took that same pledge amount, added it to their normal pledge, and followed through, we would have enough to call an assistant. Please understand that there will be no separate line item for an assistant in 2016, it will all be part of the normal operating budget pledge.
I have formed a search committee to assist me with the process of calling an assistant. Our first meeting will be on September 1st. The members of the committee are as follows: Andy Hawekotte, Senior Warden, Nancy Ponec, Junior Warden, Terri Saunders, representing the 7:45 service, Ben Bryan, representing the 9:00 am service and Ken West, representing the 10:30 am service. I also hope to have a representative from the 5:00 PM Saturday service. Please pray for our committee as we begin our work together. Since an assistant works for the rector, this is not like a regular search. I make the final call with the vestry’s knowledge and approval with the able assistance of the search committee.
I do have some good news in regards to the search before it even begins. I have spoken with the new rector of All Saints and that parish is also beginning the process of finding an assistant rector. Marisa Thompson (the rector of All Saints) and I both agree in principle that when possible and appropriate, we will cross interview candidates and share in the costs of doing so. Our parishes have different needs and different rectors, so we probably won’t want the same candidate and this will be a good way for our parishes to work together to find priests that are a good fit for both places. I anticipate the search process to take anywhere from four to eight months. Personally, I want as little time as possible to elapse between when Fr. John Adams leaves after January 3rd and when we have a new priest on board. Ideally, there would be a period of overlap between the two, but that may be a bit ambitious. We shall see.
Fr. John
MINISTRY NEWS
BLESSING OF THE ANIMALSSunday, October 4, we will combine with All Saints for a Blessing of the Animals. Bring your pets and meet us at All Saints 9302 Blondo St. at 3pm for this fun outdoor service. Fr. Schaefer will officiate this year, and in 2016, we will host with Mother Marisa officiating. It will be a great opportunity for both humans and animals to meet new friends.
PASTORAL CAREAs a result of our “Dreaming for the Future” meetings last fall, the vestry has made pastoral care one of our priorities this year. Father John is working with Sarah Black and the caring ministry committee to improve pastoral care at St. Andrew’s. It has been noted in the past that Father John is often the last to know when
someone may need some pastoral care because they are having surgery, are sick or just need a call from him. To help provide better care to all of us, we are going to implement more ways to communicate our needs to receive the care that we all want in times of need. First, there will be individuals in each service that will be the “eyes and ears” whom we will make known to all of you soon. These persons will pass on your needs (with your permission) to an identified person on the care ministry team. We are also going to re-vamp the white care cards in the pew to include prayer requests and requests for pastoral care of any type (Stephen Ministry, prayer team, meal train, etc,). Then, we are going to bring back those “red books” that some of you may remember we used about 20 years ago. These books will be in each pew and we will ask that you sign that you are present. We want to be able to reach those who are missing from our worship and this is a great way to begin! Of course you can always call the office with your requests.
We truly hope that our care ministry team will improve the care of our congregational members here at St. Andrew’s. If you have any additional ideas or would like to help serve on this team in any aspect – meal train, “eyes and ears”, providing transportation, making calls or any way that you can think of, please let Nancy Ponec (402-312-4979) or Sarah Black (402-660-7649) know. We will gladly incorporate you into our ministry team.
WE WANT YOU TO HELP LEAD WORSHIPEvery week at St. Andrew's, a host of folks assist the Fathers John in the leading of worship: reading the Scripture lessons, helping around the altar, and working behind the scenes to insure each service runs smoothly.

ST. MONICA’S GUILD KICK-OFF LUNCHEONSt. Monica’s Guild will be holding their fall kick-off luncheon and meeting at noon on Wednesday, September 16th.

Michael Curry and his election as the new Presiding Bishop The larger church budget and its mission priorities The (few) structural changes we adopted And same sex marriage
Please put Wednesday evenings on your calendars and plan on good food, good fellowship and good discussion. We generally end our evenings no later than 8 PM and usually before that time.

CATECHESIS OF THE GOOD SHEPHERD TRAININGThe Catechesis of the Good Shepherd is an approach to the religious formation of children that is rooted in the Bible, the liturgy of the church, and the educational principles of Maria Montessori. Children gather in an atrium, a room prepared for them, which contains simple yet beautiful materials that they use. There is a special place where the mystery of God meets the mystery of the young child. Catechesis of the Good Shepherd (CGS) seeks to nurture the relationship between the child and God in a profound, deep, and age appropriate way. At St. Andrew's, CGS is the program we offer as Sunday School for children in preschool through third grade.Margaret Schaefer will be offering a CGS level 1 training for adults beginning September 12 from 9:30-11:00 a.m. The class will meet every other Saturday morning. Childcare will be available when needed. This
training is for any Church members who are interested in exploring their own relationship with God or want to know more about how children develop their relationship with God. We need adults willing to work with the children on Sunday mornings, but we also invite anyone interested in their own or their children's spiritual formation. This training is an opportunity to deepen your relationship with God. If you feel called or curious about this ministry, contact Margaret at 402-690-3955 or [email protected] or let Sarah Black know at [email protected] 402-660-7649

AN INVITATION TO THE LIBRARYThanks to the generous assistance of Erin Sloan and Cricket Foley, Gini Thomas has completed the reorganization of the books in the St. Andrew’s library! In the Blue Room, books are arranged by subject, with each shelf appropriately labeled. Most books on religious concerns are located in the built-in bookcases, while books on the sciences, math, literature, history and the like are kept in the new free-standing bookcase. Many thanks go to Jim Saunders for installing this new bookcase! Books on the theory of religion and on biblical studies, as well as Bibles and concordances, are now located in the 1st/2nd grade room, off the undercroft. When you find a book that you would like to borrow, please fill out one of the available shelf markers and place it where the book was located. This way you will know where to put the book when you return it. When you have time, we hope you will browse through our collection.
THE CURATE’S CORNERA Word to the Wise
In September, the Revised Common Lectionary has us delving into a Biblical genre we rarely read on Sunday mornings (or Saturday evenings): wisdom literature. The first three weekends in September, we will be reading from Proverbs, that great Hebrew collection of wisdom sayings, and from August 30 through September 27, we will hear selections from the Epistle of James, the book of the New Testament that most closely resembles Old Testament wisdom literature.
If wisdom is that difficult-to-describe combination of experience, knowledge, and common sense that allows a person to thrive amidst the trials of daily life, then wisdom literature is concerned with teaching those things to subsequent generations so that they too might thrive. In addition to Proverbs, Job and Ecclesiastes are books of wisdom in the Old Testament; while they defy easy summarization, all three books are concerned with the proposition (articulated in Deuteronomy and through the historical books) that good things in life come to the good person and bad things to the bad.
The Book of Proverbs affirms that this assertion is true in real life; it is a collection of sayings that teach the reader how to act and think wisely, which will result in reward, and not foolishly, which will lead to suffering. Throughout Christian and Jewish history, Proverbs is most often cited by parents and other elders to their children or other youth (10:1, “A wise child makes a glad father, but a foolish child is a mother’s grief,” is typical). Where Proverbs causes difficulty is in its repeated assertions that the wise and righteous are rewarded in the world and the wicked and foolish suffer (for example, 11:8, “The righteous are delivered from trouble, and the wicked get into it instead”) when our own lives and the history of the world at large are chock full of examples where that just isn’t the case. Job and Ecclesiastes push back against Proverbs somewhat, both teaching that suffering or reward are not necessarily tied to one’s moral fiber or lack of the same.
James, although framed as an epistle, comes across more as a manual of moral teaching and advice. Jesus is barely mentioned (only once in five chapters outside of the opening salutation), which contributed to Martin Luther’s famous statement that it was an “epistle of straw” that should be excluded from the New Testament canon. But in addition to riffing on familiar themes from Proverbs (most especially an extended sequence on checking one’s tongue), James explores several implications of Jesus’ teachings on a person’s individual behavior in ways that have positively shaped Christian moral teaching to this day (most famously arguing that one’s faith must be shown through one’s actions).
In addition to providing a library of sometimes useful advice on how to live as good people, Biblical wisdom literature is relevant because early Christians identified Jesus as the incarnation of divine wisdom. From a philosophical perspective, the Word of God and the Wisdom of God can be viewed as one in the same, while from a scriptural perspective, several New Testament descriptions of Jesus echo Old Testament descriptions of Sophia, the personification God’s Wisdom (compare for example John 1:1-18 with Proverbs 8:22-31). So this month, as students and teachers settle back into school, I encourage everyone to pay particular attention to these readings in the hope that we will all turn out, if not wiser, at least a little less foolish.
FROM THE DESK
As summer fades away and turns into fall, the campfires start up. This fall, as you are mesmerized by the crackling fire, remember to pay attention to the flame inside of you as well. Let your light shine, and you will be the positive energy the world needs. Do not be afraid to show and share the love of Christ which is in your heart.

Nancy Ponec opened the meeting at 7:03 with prayer.
Special Guest Ron Dunic:Ron presented the proposed By Request Only budget from the Fund-Raising Committee. He noted the raise in cost for the use of Lauritzen Gardens. He emphasized that the Committee is trying to beef up general ticket attendance this year. He also noted that instead of video or radio ads, more emphasis will be put on print advertising.
John Mabry moved and D.J. O’Shea seconded that the proposed budget be adopted. The vote was unanimous. Minutes of the June 16, 2015, meeting were read. D. J. O’Shea disclosed that he was not at the June meeting and asked that his name be removed from the list as attending.
Shaun Rife moved, and Don Peeler seconded that the minutes be approved as amended. Vote was unanimous.
Financial Report:The “People, Programs and Property Report” shows a negative bottom line for the month of June of $2,844.39, in spite of the fact that the $37,795.18 in income was the 2nd highest in the past 7 years. The loss was the lowest loss in June. The Year-to-Date shows a cumulative balance of $11,508.42. The Operating Cash Fund Balance stands at $47,183.40; the Capital Cash Fund Balance is $481.65; and the Special Fund Balance is at $119,584.71 making total cash on hand $167,249.76.
The report for Consolidated Fund Balances shows that the Clergy Fund was increased by $5,065 in the month of June. Gordon did caution the Vestry that the Destroy the Debt payments for the month were about ½ the previous month.
The Budgeting process will be beginning in August. Gordon asked that it be announced to the congregation that all are welcome to join the Budget Committee. People should also be asked for budget proposals for 2016 and that preparations be prepared as a zero-based budgeting process.
The Vestry was presented with an overview of the funds in the Youth Activities Funds per their request last month. Anyone having questions should contact Ginny.
The motion to approve the Financial Report was made by Shaun and seconded by John M. The vote was unanimous.
Rector Report:John Schaefer is on vacation, but sent information to Andy for his report. The Committee to meet with the Music department was held and he felt it went well and there should be no end-of-the-year surprises.

Ding Daisley’s funeral will be on Friday the 24 th.

Senior Warden Report:Andy Hawekotte reported that his research on the alarm system is held up at this point over some wiring concerns and the cost to replace/repair before a new company will take over our service.
Junior Warden Report:Nancy Ponec reported that the Caring Ministry Committee will be meeting this Thursday.
New Business:There was no new business.
Old Business:There was no old business.

Next he will turn his attention to the undercroft doors and some much needed kitchen repairs.
