All Saints Day!
Nov. 1 is All Saints Sunday, and Bishop Peggy Johnson reflects on the day on the church calendar when we celebrate the lives of Christians (“saints”) who have gone before us to join the “Church Triumphant.”
It is a time to remember them, especially during this Coronavirus pandemic that has taken so many lives, and to give thanks for their faithfulness. She says we should use this solemn day, which John Wesley called a “day of peculiar love,” to recommit our lives to the Lord’s cause and “emulate the good works of those saints who…set a path for us to follow.” Read more…

INFORM: What is The UMC’s view of Halloween?
The word “Halloween” means “the evening of Hallows.” “Hallows” is an old English term for “saints.”But why “the Evening of Saints.” Well, because ancient Jews believed each day began at sunset rather than sunrise, just as we see in Genesis 1: "And it was evening, and it was morning, the first day." So, Halloween refers to the first service of worship for All Saints Day, held in the evening. Read more.

PA religious leaders call for peaceful 2020 election |
The Pennsylvania Council of Churches has issued “A Statement Calling for a Peaceful 2020 Election.” It can be read on their website. It begins:
While Americans have always had their differences based on political preferences and how we work to progress the ideal of “liberty and justice for all,” for years we managed to find ways to work together to accomplish this end.
All that has changed, and while it has been coming for some time, ideological differences have hardened into sharp lines of division. Those who disagree are not simply wrong, they have become the enemy. Anger and antipathy have escalated, and neighbors with different positions are vilified. In some cases, anger has intensified into rage, and then to physical violence. Concern over the integrity of our elections—most often driven by unfounded questions about the safety of absentee/mail-in voting—has risen to the point of fear that the election will be stolen by one side or the other. In some instances, intimidation, violence, and the spread of misinformation are being deployed in an attempt to disenfranchise “undesirable voters.”
As Christians, we recognize Jesus as the Prince of Peace, the one who claimed, “Blessed are the peacemakers.” He called upon us to love our neighbors, and to treat our neighbor as we would wish to be treated. Read more…

Conference camps staying busy into November |
Our four Camp & Retreat Centers are keeping busy this season, with two fundraising events that end this weekend and planned November events welcoming families, helpful woodcutters and church youth groups.
Innabah completes its October Amazing Raise fundraising drive on Saturday, hoping to surpass the $23,000 they raised in one day last year. All donations will be matched. Meanwhile, the camp completes its Fall Family Camp weekends in November, with families coming to enjoy a full menu of camp activities on their own Nov, 6-8 and 13-15.
“This year has been hard for everyone, but we are better together,” said camp director Michael Hyde. “We are doing our best here at Innabah to be able to continue with our ministry. We need everyone’s help. Whatever you can give will be appreciated!” Learn more… Also, watch a video for some more details and information by clicking HERE.
Carson Simpson Farm is raising funds from the sale of delicious pies, but the last day is Sunday, Nov. 1. Supporters should order their Solly Brother Farms holiday pies (from a variety of 11 savory flavors!) using the Carson Simpson Farm Thanksgiving Pie Fundraiser form. All pies are $15, and orders can be picked up from Carson Simpson on Tuesday, Nov. 24.
Pocono Plateau will host its annual Annual Woodcutter's Day on Saturday, Nov. 7, 9 AM to 4 PM. Work groups are vital to the care and maintenance of the camp’s property and facilities. Groups can volunteer to spend a day or more doing projects to help keep Pocono Plateau in good working order.
There is plenty of work to be done from general labor (splitting & stacking firewood, raking leaves, trail maintenance) to the trades (electrical, plumbing, carpentry) Any type, age, or size group is welcome! Contact the Pocono Plateau office for more information and to make arrangements.
Meanwhile, camp director Ron Schane continues to recuperate at home from his recent heart surgery.
Gretna Glen will host another, monthly Free Youth Night event on Sunday, Nov. 15, from 2:00 to 4:40 PM. The October Youth Night event drew 46 attendees. The camp is very COVID-19-conscious, continuing its due diligence in making its facilities safe for all guests. Learn more...
“We are excited to continue to offer this event as a resource to our churches and community,” says camp director Apryl Miller. It will feel similar to previous Free Youth Night events, but the youth will gather at an earlier time to enjoy outdoor activities in daylight. So, dress warmly in layers.
Also, Gretna Glen’s “Run the Glen” series of dual 5K trail races will follow on Friday, Nov. 20, at 6 PM and Saturday, Nov. 21, at 8 AM. Learn more...

By Bishop Peggy Johnson
Whatever your political affiliation, I urge you to be sure to V.O.T.E. “The strength of a political system depends upon the full and willing participation of its citizens,” according to the United Methodist Social Principles (para. 164 in the 2016 Book of Discipline). I encourage you to participate in the following important ways. We can:
-
Volunteer to help others vote.
-
Open our minds through reading and listening to learn candidates’ positions and platforms to help determine our choices.
-
Teach others about the sacred importance of voting and helping to ensure fairness in our elections.
-
Engage in prayer for a peaceful, safe, transparent and civil outcome to this election, asking God’s Spirit to move among us as a nation.
Read Bishop Johnson’s full essay but also the open letter--”A Crisis of Faith and Democracy”—signed by her and many other UM bishops, as well as other related articles.

POWER offers nonviolent direct action training
|
POWER, the interfaith, justice advocacy organization of over 50 congregations in the region, will offer a third online training session in Nonviolent Direct Action on Sunday, Nov. 1, at 6 to 8 PM. The “Soul Force” training--praised by several local religious leaders--is a spiritual discipline that teaches participants to “meet white supremacy, fascism and violence with a powerful contrary force.”
“As the election nears (Nov. 3), we find ourselves in a fight to preserve democracy in the United States,” the organization says. “We must prepare ourselves and our communities for uncertainty and unrest. In this training, we will discuss concrete next steps to take so we are prepared following the election. As people of faith and moral conscience we must meet this moment with courage and conviction.”
The training includes team-building and learning history, principles and tactics of Nonviolent Direct Action, using the Southern Freedom Movement's methods. POWER is one of several groups doing “voter engagement” work to increase participation, especially among marginalized voters, and preparing for threats of possible intimidation and backlash to election results.

All youth invited to special CCYM Racism and Diversity event, Nov. 14 |
The Northeastern Jurisdiction Council on Youth Ministry, at its Nov. 14 meeting, will feature a special program on Racism and Diversity, presented by the Eastern PA Conference Council on Youth Ministry (CCYM) (left). The presentation will be from 1 to 4 PM using video-conferencing on Zoom. All youth from the NEJ’s 10 conferences are invited to participate. Pre-registration is required to receive the Zoom invitation and link.
“We will use a unique approach of presenting scripted vignettes that one of our youth members is preparing,” said the Rev. David Piltz, Conference Coordinator of Young People’s Ministries. The presentation, including interactive discussions, will focus on words and meanings that emerge from Matthew 15:18, which teaches that “what comes out of the mouth proceeds from the heart, and this is what defiles us,” said Piltz. “The essential point is that if love is in our heart then nothing bad comes out of the mouth; and racism is not from a place of love but from a place of hate.”
CCYM member Sara Mott, of Covenant UMC in Moore Township, is writing the vignettes. She recently directed, produced and acted in a short dramatic film, “Secondhand Smoke” about domestic violence that was shown at a New York film festival for high school students. The program agenda will also include time for fellowship and worship.

How to Deal with Church Bullies webinar, Nov. 11 |
Connectional Ministries will offer a requested Zoom webinar titled “How to Recognize and Deal with Church Bullies” on Wednesday, Nov 11, at 6:30 PM. The Rev. David Woolverton (right) will lead the workshop, drawing from his 30 years as a pastor, educator, consultant and now author, with a new book on church conflict in the works.
“In the church, bullies can look spiritual. They also may be serving a very unique function in the life of the congregation,” writes Dr. Woolverton. He will explore how to recognize, assess and respond to church “bullies” and the closed power systems that they represent. “While some of those persons are simply reacting with anxiety to changes implemented by leaders, others may have a more defined plan to sabotage any idea that does not originate with them.” Registration for this event is now open.

Church & Society seminar to examine educational equity |
Church and Society will host its fifth annual Called Seminar, “Towards Educational Equity: Investing in the Beloved Community” from Nov. 30 to Dec. 3, on Zoom.
Going back to school in the COVID-19 pandemic has created challenges for students, teachers, and parents. These challenges have been compounded by the disproportionate availability and access to resources, highlighting the inequities of our education system. Unfortunately, these inequities are not unique to COVID-19, and like other societal inequities magnified by COVID-19, existed prior to the pandemic.
This four-day series of seminars will feature discussions with experts on what an equitable education system for all can truly look like. The seminar will equip participants with tools and resources to continue the work of advocacy towards educational equity.
All sessions will be held on Zoom. Registration is free and open to all. Register for each session here. Advance registration is required for all events. Closed captions and ASL interpretation will be available for Nov 30 and Dec 1 webinars. For December 2 and 3 events, it will be available upon request.
Participants will also have an option to hold virtual meetings with their Congressional offices on Dec. 3. Register by Nov. 11. Webinars on Nov. 30 and Dec. 1 will be recorded. Register by the date of the webinar to receive the links and additional resources. Contact Aimee Hong for more information. Register Today!

Order of Elders to learn about using digital media for ministry |
The Eastern PA Conference Order of Elders will hear from an expert on how to use media creatively to reclaim the church’s social influence at a training event on Wednesday, Nov. 18, at 1 PM, via Zoom.
“Obviously our time together in the Order of Elders will be different this year,” says the Rev. Tom Ebersole, the group’s new chairman. Rather than the usual lunch gathering at Innabah Camp & Retreat Center, the 2-hour video-conference will include a talk and Q & A session featuring Phil Cooke, a writer, leading media producer and consultant who critiques American-influenced Christian culture. (Wikipedia)
With a Ph.D in theology, Cooke has “helped some of the largest Christian and nonprofit organizations in the world use the media to tell their story in a changing, disrupted culture.” Ebersole says Cooke’s book The Way Back: How Christians Blew Our Credibility & How We Get it Back “changed how I do ministry. He is dynamic and brings a message we definitely need to hear.”
The first 70 elders who sign up for the Nov. 18 training will receive a copy of Cooke’s new book, Maximize Your Influence: How to Make Digital Media Work for Your Church, Your Ministry and You. This event is free for conference elders. Register now.

Conference offers new booklet of scholarships, ministry funds
Announces new Narberth Legacy Ministry Action Grants
|
But other funding sources also appear in the booklet, including the William “Bill” Drendall Endowment Fund of Mount Gretna UMC, available to all churches; BMCR/BUMP College Scholarships for active members of BMCR-member churches; and scholarships and ministry funding from general agencies of the UMC.
One major funding source featured in the new booklet is the conference’s new Narberth Legacy Ministry Action Grants (2021-2023 Action Grants). The Narberth Legacy Ministry Action Fund is a Permanent Endowment Fund administered by the Mid-Atlantic United Methodist Foundation on behalf of the Eastern PA Conference. It was established from the 2014 discontinuation of Narberth UMC, as a living memorial to past church members, to provide substantial support to new, innovative, justice-seeking ministries that impact the life of communities.
Beginning July 1, 2021 one grant for up to $45,000, distributed over a three-year period, will be awarded annually to a church. Eligible ministries are those that seek to serve populations that may be multicultural, young or intergenerational, unchurched or de-churched, and challenged by racism, discrimination, poverty and other disadvantages. Such ministries should demonstrate viability and a commitment to foster productive cooperation with church and community partners and stakeholders.
Funds will be granted only for endeavors that produce action and offer the potential for real change. Learn more on the conference website’s Funding for Ministry page or contact the Office of Connectional Ministries. Deadline: Jan. 31, 2021. Learn more...

By Water & the Spirit: Theology & Practice of Baptism |
Nov. 7 & 21, 9 to 11:30 AM. A study offered on Zoom by the Board of Ordained Ministry
Study leaders: Rev. Gary Knerr and Rev. Candy LaBar.
Two Sessions:
Saturday November 7, 9:00-11:30 AM
Saturday November 21, 9:00-11:30 AM
Baptism is at the core of who we are as Christians — but how well do we truly understand this sacrament? Those of us who serve in church leadership often face practical questions with deep theological roots. By getting to the theological heart of baptism, we as church leaders can offer better and more meaningful answers to these questions that so often arise from the pews.
This study on Zoom is designed to help all church leaders — and in particular, our licensed local pastors and lay-supply pastors — to wrestle with this theological foundation of baptism. To participate, individuals should read Gayle Carlton Felton’s By Water and the Spirit (available at Cokesbury.com); and share any questions with the study leaders via email. 0.5 CEUs will be offered to those who complete this course.
This event is free and recommended to all persons with church leadership roles. Learn more and Register Online.
