Aloha our beloved parish 'ohana,
|
|
A marriage in which communication has broken down. An impending report from my doctor. Anxiety about employment. A battle with depression. Concern for a troubled teenager. A broken heart when a loved one has died, or relationship has come to an end. Pain about the divisions presently on our island home.
What do all these things have in common? They are all occasions to ask for healing. We believe that the needs for healing are as varied as the people who come through our door and gather around the Lord's table. We believe that the need for healing applies to the body, mind, spirit, relationship and memory. We believe that if you scratch the surface of any person, even the ones who look the most “put together," you will find some need for healing. As the church, we hold the healing ministry as one of our most important callings.
Every time we gather at the altar, we pray for healing for ourselves and healing for our world. But several times a year, including at this weekend's worship services, we draw attention to healing in preaching and teaching and liturgy, to remind us that this is part of the church's work, but this is what we are called to do as followers of Jesus, who's ministry was one of healing. After you have received communion, one of our clergy will be available for the laying on hands and prayer. Simply make your way to them. Tell them what you would like to pray for. They will pray with you.
We hope to see you tonight at the Beach Mass or tomorrow morning.

Peace and blessings,
David+

New friends and good fellowship are truly gifts of grace. Jim Waddington kindly shared this picture and observation about the impact of the Community Meal in his life:
“I really enjoy the cross section of island folks whom I meet at the Community Dinner (that's) why I enjoy the fellowship there."

Sermon Series at St. James'

The first sermon of the series concentrated on the virtue of HUMILITY and can be heard
HERE
. This was followed by the virtue of COMPASSION AND MERCY.
CLICK HERE
to listen. The next Sunday's sermon focused on SELF-CONTROL and resisting distraction. To hear, click
HERE. the following week presented FAITHFULNESS and can be heard
HERE. For the homily on the virtue of LOVE, click
HERE
.
We examined was GENEROSITY or GOODNESS.
CLICK HERE to listen.
This past Sunday we concentrated on Peace, Love and Faith. You can listen
HERE.
This week we will examine joy -
the joy that comes from when you witness the spirit working In someone’s life. The joy that comes from seeing God’s grace, mercy, and love of God made real.

Train-the-Trainer re: Active Shooter Preparedness
Workshop this coming
Wednesday and Thursday
(August 28 or 29)
Volunteer(s) needed to go to the workshop
It is distressing, painful, and heartbreaking that we, as a community, must commit time and resources to such a topic, but in light of recent and seemingly continuing events, it is also prudent and responsible. We are looking for volunteers to attend a tabletop training of the trainers on developing exercises for responses to active shooters (and other emergency situations.)
The presenter is Gary Meaney from Texas A & M. We expect that there will be participation from the Department of Education and possibly other schools as well as law enforcement personnel. The Hawai’i Island Safety Security Professionals Association (HISSPA) is hosting and the workshop is free. It will be held at the Westin Hapuna and lunch will be provided. The workshop will be held on Wednesday, August 28 and repeated on Thursday, August 29, and will run from 8 to 5 on both days. Please let David, our rector, know if you or someone you might know, from our parish ‘ohana would want to attend. He has more information he can provide you.

Scripture Readings for this Weekend
|
|
Proper 16
Notes on This Reading:
In the midst of challenging teaching, Jesus encounters a woman who had been imprisoned by a crippling ailment for almost two decades. In keeping with Luke's focus on healing, Jesus sets her free. As is often the case, the work of mercy happens on the Sabbath, violating religious rules of the day. This was no accident on Jesus's part. The authorities criticize Jesus for healing her, but he will not accept their judgment. Instead, he points to the centrality of his ministry of mercy and freedom, doing so with courage as he confronts those in authority and brings healing where it is so desperately needed.
Questions:
- Why do you think that Jesus's ministry as healer gets such emphasis in the Gospel of Luke?
- What do you think was so important about the Sabbath?
- Why was it a bad idea to some people to heal on the Sabbath?
- What is revealed about Jesus's character in this story?
- What is revealed about the religious leaders of the day? Do these leaders look, in any way, familiar?

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.
