Aloha my beloved parish 'ohana,
When I was an Assistant Rector at St. Bart’s in Midtown Manhattan, a therapist and I led a “Between Jobs Ministry”, a ministry to those who were searching for employment. In my reading, and also in my discussions with employment advisors, there is a common theme of the need for rest. We had to tell people that even when they were looking for full time work, they needed to give themselves permission to take a day off. Looking for a full-time job can be a full-time job. They, too, needed a time for rest. We are no good to any one, in our work, or in an interview looking for work, if we are frazzled at the ends and burning ourselves out.
Even the military realizes that you have to send soldiers away from combat for a little R & R, rest & relaxation. While we can’t always get physically away, we still need, even if only for a short period of time, to step back and take a break.
Sometimes we convince ourselves, maybe even subconsciously, that things will fall apart without us. But this is human vanity talking. As Charles De Gaulle said, “The grave yard is full of indispensable leaders.” Sometimes it is good for us to step away for the very reason that it allows for others to have the opportunity step forward.
|
|
Jesus recognized, we need our rest, and not just for our bodies, but also for our souls. In Matthew’s Gospel he records Jesus’ words, “Come to me, all you that are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.” (Matthew 11:28-30)
|
|
|
Christ invites the weary and heavily burdened to let him share our load and give us the kind of deep inner rest we could never find on our own. Together, with Christ, we find rest for our souls and freedom from the heavy burdens which wear us down. This is the message they heard --
AND COME THEY DID.
I pray this has been a relaxing Summer for you. If it has been so far, good! But if not, you definitely need a break. Moreover, you need some time with Jesus. Come all you who labor and are heavy-laden.
With Blessings,
David +

Midweek Worship
Every Wednesday
Morning Prayer, 9 AM
Every Wednesday, at 9 AM in St. James' church, we offer the service of Morning Prayer. This is a beautiful way to begin one's day. The service of Morning Prayer, also known as Matins, is one of the two main Daily Offices in the Episcopal church. One of the beautiful aspects of Morning and Evening Prayer is that as you pray the office you are praying it with thousands of people around the world who are also engaged in these same or similar prayers. In addition, during the service, we will be incorporating the reading of the names on our parish prayer list. Please come and join us in prayer.

Our yearly Christmas Bazaar has been a highly anticipated event by folks in the wider community. The bazaar starts at 9AM with people lined up to get inside. This year's bazaar funds will go to support our Community Meal Ministry.
What we need: You & Your Valuables! Please drop off your fabulous items for the silent auction, such as art, collectibles, and other valuable things. We need Christmas"y" items for the main bazaar. We are VERY low of number of Christmas items. So clean out those closets and storage units and give your lesser used items a chance to find a new home!
Mahalos already going out to Tim Bostock and Pattie Kim for agreeing to co-chair this year's event, Laurie Rosa and Betty Hanna for starting the famous St. James' Mango Chutney factory, and Steve Kittel for volunteering his garage to store items.

Helping with Building Housing for those displaced in Puna
Mahalo for the monies you have given to help those in Puna who have lost their homes. As promised, we have tried hard to make sure the monies collected have been distributed in manner that will have a high, direct impact and go to the agencies with least overhead.
Because of your donations, we were able to send a check for $3,000 to help in the building and operating of a 13 unit temporary housing project (11 housing units and 2 units for operations). The project is on the on the property of Connect Point Church
(Assemblies of God)
in Hilo.
Their church has donated the land. These are single room units to house individuals who have been displaced by the lava flow. They believe they will be providing the space for these housing units for a year, perhaps 18 months. After that, if the structures are no longer needed, they plan to contact the organizations that provided funds to see if they want/need the structure. If the organization declines they will then seek to donate them to the County for transitional housing for the homeless. The structures were put up this past week.

Altar Guilds
|
The Altar Guild assists the clergy and other worship leaders in ensuring that worship services run smoothly. We care for all the accoutrements and other items used in worship, from the sacred vessels and candlesticks, to the linens and hangings which change seasonally or to accommodate such events as weddings and baptisms. We prepare everything for celebrations of Eucharist, and we oversee the decoration the church for special occasions, such as Christmas, Thanksgiving, and Easter. We work to make our church a place of meditation, peace, and joy for all.
Week after week the altar guild members ready our sacred space for worship. With some variations among churches, altar guilds have these duties: The care of Communion vessels, candles, and vestments. They provide and arrange of the beautiful flowers at the altar. Supplies of bread and wine are their responsibility. Careful washing (and stain removal!) of the fair linen and purificators used in worship.
The Communion vessels are placed on the altar prior to each service-just so. Add to the regular Sunday services the special ones, including weddings, baptisms, funerals, and other special occasions. The Altar Guild is a ministry, a calling. Quietly, devotedly, reverently, reliably the members prepare the sanctuary for us, as we worship the Risen Christ.
The Altar Guild welcomes new members both women and men.

News and Inspiration from Forward Movement
|
|
Dear friends in Christ,
Like many other church leaders, I have just returned from General Convention full of memories, knowledge, and inspiration. Each person will have a unique experience, with favorite moments from the convention. Mine came during the opening worship service, when our Presiding Bishop preached a fiery sermon about God's love. That's not new, of course. But there was something new.
Bishop Curry has invited us all to take on spiritual practices so that we are spiritually vital followers of Jesus who have some Good News to share with others. Since he became Presiding Bishop, Bishop Curry has been calling us to be evangelists. To be effective evangelists, we have to live transformed lives, and that's where the Way of Love comes in.
We are called to seven practices:
TURN: Pause, listen, and choose to follow Jesus
LEARN: Reflect on Scripture each day, especially on Jesus' life and teachings
PRAY: Dwell intentionally with God daily
WORSHIP: Gather in community weekly to thank, praise, and dwell with God
BLESS: Share faith and unselfishly give and serve
GO: Cross boundaries, listen deeply, and live like Jesus
REST: Receive the gift of God's grace, peace, and restoration
I plan to work on these myself, and I hope you'll join me in answering the call of our Presiding Bishop. Of course, Bishop Curry is really reminding us of the call from our Savior and Lord, as Jesus invites us to a new life abounding in grace.
Yours faithfully,
Scott Gunn
Executive Director

Prayer for those in path of volcano eruptions
Jesus, protect the people of our island home as Kīlauea erupts. Be with the people who have already lost their homes and protect the rest of the people living there and nearby. Calm the volcano and bring the settling of the 'āina. Protect people, animals, crops, homes and other structures from injury or damage due to the volcanic eruption. We thank you for the first responders and rescue workers. We ask for your shield of protection to be around them as they seek to offer help. Empower us in the days ahead to help and support those impacted by the eruption. Thank you, Lord. We cherish the people of our island. AMEN.

Aloha from St. Columba's!
The community gathered July 15 to break open the Word and break bread together during the Holy Eucharist. And, of course, we shared a lovely lunch afterward! This is a lovely tradition I've been enjoying very much. It's definitely a loaves and fishes moment to see the spread of delicious and nourishing food after our worship service!
A Cursio group met at St. Columba's on Sunday. We're happy to open our doors to this group of individuals who drive some distance to gather for Bible study, discussion, and spirit-filled work. Millie Yaglin is a member of this group, and she says they worked on art projects for ministry to the incarcerated.
St. Columba's continues to extend their warm and loving Aloha spirit during my time here. Members have accompanied me on pastoral care calls, fed me with wonderful conversation and local food, and taken me to the beach for an early morning swim. I am grateful for fresh-picked mangos, bananas, and avocados! And I look forward to hiking forested property and seeing firsthand ways in which St. Columba's members act as nature whisperers who tend to the flora and fauna of this land.
Mahalo and blessings,
Jennifer +

Thrift Store Lanai Expansion Update:
We have received the structural plans and if all goes well they will be submitted for the building permit early this week.

Our beloved Jacaranda tree suffered from the swirling wind this week. A major limb came down. It was quickly cut up and hauled away, thanks to the coordination of our Junior Warden, Brian Burke. Thankfully, the fallen limb happened at night when there were no keiki playing under it and no cars parked near it. Brian has arranged for an arborist to assess the damage to the tree itself and determine if the break has compromised the tree further. We all love this beautiful tree, but, we must make sure that it is safe. We will keep the parish apprised of the findings.

Another great Community Meal......and just let me start with a big MAHALO NUI LOA to all our wonderful volunteers. It is YOU who make it all happen and we are so humbled and grateful to all of you......your participation is noticed and greatly appreciated.
In spite of a bit of rain and chill, there was a warm happy mood in the pavilion. One newcomer said it was “like a very welcoming party” to which they felt very warmly included. It truly is a blessing to be a part of this Community Meal.
We served 211 meals in the pavilion (including 34 keiki) plus 81 deliveries for a grand total of 292. This week’s meal consisted of tuna casserole, rice, ABC salad. Quinoa salad, zucchini & cucumber salad, green salad, bread pudding, pound cake with strawberries, pumpkin pie, brownies and assorted cookies.
Our most frequent musician, Dagan Bernstein provided his mellow music as only he can. All in all, a truly wonderful night.
Dagan is also our Youth Ukulele instructor. Many mahalos, Dagan, for all that you do!

If you have been wanting to come and volunteer, come on down on Thursdays anytime from 10am-6:30pm......there is ALWAYS room for another set of hands and we would LOVE to have you join us in this fun and meaningful ministry. Any ages are welcome (our youngest regular server is 7 and he is great) If you have out of town guests, bring them too (no experience necessary) MAHALO NUI LOA.

Donate your Foodland Maika'i Coupons
|
Please donate your Foodland Maika'i award coupons to the Community Meal. We try to collect enough to get large quantities of the weekly special, sufficient to serve 200 plus people.
It is easier for us to receive the coupons than the food items, as we can calculate if we will have enough of a particular item for the whole of the meal, and we can save up for special items like corned beef at St. Patrick's Day or turkeys at Thanksgiving.
So, please save your Maika'i award coupons and drop them off at the church. Remember that the coupons have expiration dates so be sure to check the expirations. This is a great way for everyone who shops at Foodland land to participate in this powerful and needed ministry.

When life is hard, what I need most is not always what I want. What I want is for life to be easy. What I want is for someone or something to come along and make it all go away. But what I need is tenderness. What I need is to be loved. What I need is a companion for the journey.
