1 K N O X P R E S B Y T E R I A N C H U RC H November, 2010 Issue 11 A Cross The Pews Church Office hours during Transition On Friday October 29th we had a major power outage in the church as a result of some unexpected results from some construction work. You may have called the church and heard the phone ring many times but no one answered. We were all there, but couldn t use the phones or computers. Some messages left on our answering machine were also erased as a result of the power outage. We are all sorry about this. On Monday November 1st we were also without power as main power was switched over to the new church building. We are blessed that our Paul Ogram was able to provide us with his tractor and generator to keep us running during that day with only a few brief outages while switching was taking place. We can expect this to happen in the future as well. On November 12th the phones will be off all day as the lines are switched over and we may not have phones up for use until November 16th or 17th. Church Staff are also involved in preparing all of the church records, archives, tax records and office materials for transport. This will involve disruption to our usual quick response to inquiries and assistance to our church members and adherents. Moving is stressful. We will try our best to stay on top of things. Thank you for understanding. Brooke, Linda, Laura, Wendy, Jean, Terry. Do you enjoy singing Christmas music? Erb Street West.

3 A Note from Christian Ed. Continued. Page 3 are held the first Sunday of each month in the church hall for children in JK-Grade 6. We are excited about our church s place in our community and these Sundays are a time for us to learn about our neighbors and the organizations which are hard at work here. We invite agency representatives to meet with us and teach us about their work in our community with people in need. The activities that follow are our way of responding to the needs we hear about. In November the Community Connection Sunday introduced the Sunday school children to S.H.O.W. (Supportive Housing of Waterloo). Our guest speaker was Grant Birks who shared stories about the new housing project on Erb St W. The Bake Sale during coffee hour was the children s way of raising funds to support S.H.O.W. Thanks to all who bought baked goods at the sale. In December, the children in Sunday school will work with the Sr High LOGOS youth to assemble Christmas Hampers for the House of Friendship. In 2009 over 550 volunteers sorted, packed and delivered 3,620 Christmas food hampers. ***We need donations of items for the Christmas hampers: Canned beans in tomato sauce (no pork) Candy Canned vegetables (corn & peas) Cookies Canned soup Crackers Peanut butter Chicken noodle soup (dry soup mix) Canned fruit Macaroni and cheese Apples Pasta, hot rods, baking mixes, canned Juice crystals meat, pasta sauce, stuffing mix & Canned pop snacks Please bring donations to church on or before Sunday Dec. 5 and leave them on the cart outside the CE office.

4 Page 4 Watch Our Building Grow: Moving Day! Moving day is almost upon us! At the time of writing this newsletter article, the exact moving day is unknown. Devlan Construction is working towards having significant completion by mid to late November. At that point, inspectors judge the building as safe for use. Water will be on, electrical lights and outlets will be live, and fire prevention and safety systems will be functional. Hard hats and work boots will no longer be needed to visit the site. That does not mean that all the trim will be in place, that walls will be perfectly painted, or that there will be pews in the Sanctuary, but it does mean that Knox can start moving gradually into our new space. There will still be many tasks to be completed by Devlan before the building is ready for Hand Over. George MacAskill is coordinating the transition between the buildings. As spaces in the new building become safe and functional, George will have teams of volunteers move a room s contents to the new building. Programs will gradually begin to meet in the new building. One of the last things to move to the new space will be our worship services. Knox is constructing a beautiful building. I am impressed every time I walk through the new space at how Knox has taken the hopes and dreams of our congregation and used them to construct a functional, cost effective, yet inspiring building. Members and visitors will be welcomed into the building through a space that offers engaging views of the urban community that surrounds us but also of the Knox community within our walls. Classrooms are bright, welcoming, and spacious. The large upstairs room has floor to ceiling windows that offer an intriguing view of the cityscape of Waterloo. The Sanctuary has towering windows that fill the space with natural light and that draw your attention upwards while you are surrounded by powerful pillars that remind us of God s strength and stability. Throughout November watch for details about moving and transitioning to the new space on our website, in our worship bulletins, on our bulletin boards, and through activity that you will see happening in the corridors of Knox.

5 Update from Reuben St. Louis This fall, I started my second year of my MDiv. In addition to my courses in theology, pastoral care, preaching and history, I am also doing my Theological Field Education (TFE). This is when a student spends eight months ministering in a congregation under the supervision of an experienced minister. St. Andrew s Kitchener is where I am doing my TFE and Rev. Mark Lewis is my supervisor. The two foci that I have for this year are preaching and pastoral care. This means that I am making lots of pastoral visits and participating in worship at St. Andrew s. October 17 th was my first time preaching at their evening service. My next opportunity to preach is November 28 th at 7:00 pm and anyone from Knox is more than welcome to come. In addition, I also spend some of my time at ROOF, a youth drop-in centre. The TFE is 10 hours per week plus two hours of class time. In my case, my class time is online which means I do not have to go into Toronto as often. Overall, my studies are going very well and I hope that Katherine, Ben and I will get the chance to attend Knox some Sunday when I am not at St. Andrew s. Sincerely, Reuben St. Louis Page 5 New Members Always Welcome! Group D is a group of Knox women who meet once a month on Tuesdays at 1:15 p.m. for Bible study and fellowship.

The date and place to go for lunch in December is to be decided. Our next A Cross The Pews will go out December 5th. Articles are due November 28th. Joan Campbell at joanmhc@rogers.com Or leave the information in my mailbox outside the church office. To everyone who sponsored me for the Run For The Cure for Breast Cancer.

6 Page 6 PASSAGES Births: Congratulations to Phil and Marie Myers on the birth of their new son, Kael, and also congratulations to great grandmother, Eula Mae Myers. Deaths: Janet Stevens-Hart was interred in the cemetery of St. Andrew's church Burnbrae on October 10th. That is the church Janet was baptized in in Janet was a long time member and Elder of Knox Waterloo and was the mother of Pat Ballantyne. Our sympathies go out to Gary and Sheila Ward and family on the death of Gary's mother and on the death of Sheila s step father. Thinking of You: Our thoughts and prayers are with the following people who have been ill: Dorothy Allan, Inez Watson, Don Sanders, Fiona Scott, Lila Beach and Nancy Hunter. Stewardship in November We are having a stewardship focus during the first three Sundays in November. During worship we will have a Witnessing Steward say some words about the life and witness of our congregation and how this is made possible through our journeys of faithful stewardship. We never give to budget; we give to God in response to the grace and bounty that we have been blessed with. Gratitude is only possible though experiencing a generous God. The principle of equal sacrifice not equal gifts invites us all to give as we are blessed in an intentional proportional. It is especially important to have a generous response during the last two months of the year. Your church home counts on your generous support. New Facilities Assistant As advertised in the church bulletin we were looking for a Facilities Assistant to do room set up and light housekeeping while the main cleaning of the buildings will happen through a cleaning service. We have been blessed for 33 years to have had Tony Freitas as our caretaker. Now that Tony has retired we are pleased to announce the three month appointment of our own Grant Birks as our Facilities Assistant. Back up and additional work will be accomplished by Phoenix Hutchison who is also our Sunday morning caretaker. We were indeed fortunate to have a number of highly gifted people apply for this position. At the end of the three months there will be a review and we will have a better grasp on the scope of work entailed in the care of the new facility which is both larger and more complex than our current building. A warm thank you to all who applied. From the Personnel Committee

7 Congregational Meeting Sunday, October 24, 2010 At Knox s recent congregational meeting, the Congregation approved two motions that will provide Knox Session and Knox Finance Committee with the flexibility to ensure the successful long term financial management of Knox. Motion #1: To increase our maximum borrowing from $4.5M to $5.0M (as previously approved by Presbytery). Motion #2: To request Presbytery to loan Knox $200K to cover short term cash flow needs (until HST rebates are received). The first motion approved increasing the maximum debt level from $4.5M to $5M to allow for additional short term financing. Of course, Session will not incur the debt unless needed. This motion allows Session to take action in case the capital pledges fall short of the $2.3M goal. The second motion to pass is to ask Presbytery for a short term loan of $200K to cover HST costs until those funds are rebated to us. This will give significant flexibility helping us manage our cash flow during the winter of You might be able to help here! If you have completed your pledge, you might be able to give more. If you are new to Knox, you might wish to join in. Or, if you are in a position where you have spare funds, you might consider investing more in Knox s future. Our congregation has given generously following the vision principle of equal sacrifice not equal giving. We recognize that. But some may be able to help more. Please consider this in your prayers. Thanks to all those who were able to attend this important meeting particularly those who asked such good questions. If anyone has more questions, please ask Deb Schlichter, Connie Graham, or Tupper Cawsey. Submitted by Connie Graham Page 7 EXTRA! EXTRA! Knox Pews for Sale!! As reported earlier, we will be using new pews and chair seating in our new building. It was more cost effective than having extensive work done on our existing pews to fit them for the sloped floor and refinish for the next 50 years of use. We had hoped that the pews would find a new home in another church and had a number of churches interested. Alas, it has not worked out. Would you like a pew? Any Knox pew of any length is now for sale. You will need to take it home and you may need to shorten it for household use. The cost is the usual price for a (nicely) used church pew of $150. They are in remarkable shape for 53 year of age.

8 Page 8 Chrismon Project Chrismons are Christian symbols, initially intended to be used on Christmas trees in churches. For many years, the tree here at Knox Presbyterian Church has been a real tree (thanks to the Schneider s for allowing us to chop a tree down in their bush) decorated with white lights, gold and silver balls and Chrismons. With the addition of the new worship space on the second floor of our new church we may well want to have at least two Chrismon Trees each year. With this in mind, we will need more Chrismons. As a way to celebrate our new Church, we are asking each Knox household to make a Chrismon to be used in the new church. Patterns from the simplest to more difficult are available. All the Chrismons should be white with gold and silver trim. They can be as simple as paper, felt or Styrofoam with glitter and sequins glued on, or as elaborate as a woven, beaded or three dimensional designs. Some examples of Chrismons can be seen in the church during coffee hour. If you are interested in participating in the Chrismon Project, please pick up one of the symbol patterns (either at the office during the week or on Sunday during coffee hour). When you are done, we would like you to write your family name and 2010 in small letters somewhere on the Chrismon. (if this can t be done, you can add a label or a small card attached to it. We are asking all the Chrismons to be completed by Sunday, January 9 th, 2011 where they will be dedicated in worship. Then, each year they will be used to decorate our trees in the new church. Thank you in advance for your willingness to participate in the Chrismon project. If you have any questions, please speak to Rev. Linda Ashfield (lashfield@golden.net).

9 Living the Questions: An Adult Christian Study (Beginning in January) Page 9 We would like you to consider joining in on a few evenings of conversation about our faith and what it means to follow Jesus in our world today. While many churches are enjoying the Alpha Program, Living the Questions was suggested as another video-based study that is particularly good for those who want to dig into some theology as well as scripture. This video-based study is intended to help seekers and "church alumni" alike in discovering the significance of Christianity in the 21st Century and what a meaningful faith can look like in today's world. The overall theme is called - Invitation to Journey, and will be covered in seven Wednesday evening sessions beginning on January 5 th, at 7:30 pm. The weekly topics include: An Invitation to Journey; Taking the Bible Seriously; Thinking Theologically; Stories of Creation; Lives of Jesus; A Passion for Christ Paul; and Out into the World Challenges Facing Progressive Christians. Each 1.5 hour session will begin with a 20-minute video featuring prominent theologians, church leaders, sociologists and biblical scholars after which discussion will be led by Rev. Linda Ashfield and Grant Birks. A key resource for our conversation will be Living Faith: A Statement of Christian Belief which will provide a Presbyterian context. We hope you will consider joining us for some lively conversation as well as a chance to hear from some of the great Christian leaders of today. You may wish to join in for all 7 sessions; or come for only a few. Saturday November 27th Congregational (all ages) Pilgrimage 3:30-5:15 p.m. followed by a potluck supper at the church. As a way of marking the journey into the new church building our congregation will walk to all the various places that have been significant to us in the 122 years of congregational life. We will meet at Knox (please bring something for a potluck dinner and dress for outdoor weather). From here we will walk to what was St. Paul's Presbyterian Church on George Street as well as the other places that have been significant to us. Fortunately Knox has always been in the core of the city. At each stop, we will hear a few words, maybe sing a verse of a well known hymn and close with a prayer before we journey on to the next place. At the end we will enjoy a potluck supper together here at Knox. Thanks to Jocelyn Pederson who is helping with the set up and dinner part of the evening, to the Nurture Committee for sponsoring this Congregational Event and to the group who met to study the Knox Reads book, "The Way is Made by Walking" for creating the idea. If you would like to participate in our Pilgrimage but would prefer to get a drive from place to place - please let the church office know. Fall First Sundays at Knox 11:30 12:45 p.m. November 7th. Let s explore together how God may be calling us to respond with hospitality and Christian love to the International Students in our midst.

All proceeds will go towards the new church building Farewell to Tony! We had a great celebration on October 31 st for our retiring caretaker Tony Freitas. After 33 years of faithful service at Knox, we acknowledged what a valuable contribution Tony has made to us all. He not only kept the place clean and tidy, he kept the people in his heart and was warm and caring to everyone he met. We will truly miss his positive presence at Knox. During worship there was a presentation from Deb Schlichter, our Clerk of Session and Brooke Ashfield. We presented Tony with a beautiful wall clock for his home and a cheque for $1,000 in appreciation for such dependable and outstanding work. During the coffee hour reception, with lots of cake, there were expressions of appreciation from Dick Steffy, John McBride, Walter McLean and Wendy Anderson. Many informal expressions of appreciation were also shared with Tony and his family. All the best Tony! The Congregation of Knox, Waterloo is invited to attend the Dedication of the New Retreat House at Crieff Hills Community Centre. The open house will run from 3-5 on Sunday, November 21st with the Dedication Service taking place at 4 p.m. This is an exciting next step in the development of our Presbyterian Conference and Retreat Centre. If the weather is good, you might want to go for a walk on the trails or throughout the country property. Crieff is less than 1/2 way and is a wonderful place to spend a few hours or even days!

11 Page 11 Countdown Continues as Goblins and Cold Weather Approach The countdown to reach the goal of 375,000 lbs of donated, non-perishable food this fall continues as preparations for the winter months ramp up. Comparing the results so far to last year, we are on track to meet this target by early November, says Wendi Campbell, The Food Bank of Waterloo Region s Executive Director. The many fun, spooky Halloween events this weekend will play an important role in meeting the target. Residents of Waterloo Region should be on the lookout for ghouls and goblins collecting food door to door on Halloween night for programs such as Trick or Eat, Halloween for Hunger, Kans for Kids, and CANS (Citizens Always Need Supper). The Haunted House on Markwood Drive returns this year as well, collecting donations for The Food Bank instead of charging an admission fee. The young people coordinating Halloween food drives have raised thousands of pounds of food in the past and The Food Bank will need them to be just as successful again this year. November 1 st marks the first night of the Out of the Cold Program in Waterloo Region. Last year The Food Bank distributed over 32,000 lbs of food to Out of the Cold locations. In addition to food financial donations are critical to keeping the trucks on the road and the warehouse functioning, ensuring the food raised can be handled and distributed effectively. Financial donations can be made anytime online at or by calling In celebration of two remarkable food drive efforts, Kitchener Rangers players will be on hand at The Food Bank on November 10 to meet students from the two winning schools from the Rangers Classroom Food Drive Challenge. Players and students will learn more about hunger in our community and help sort the many bins of food donations that have arrived in the warehouse. Three million pounds of food is distributed each year by The Food Bank, through 76 community food programs. Last year 28,000 people needed emergency food assistance. Food donations can be made at any time of year at grocery stores, food drive events or at The Food Bank. For more information, please contact Ruth Friendship-Keller, Community Partnerships Manager, The Food Bank of Waterloo Region ext.225 ruthf@thefoodbank.ca Or talk to Dave Ogram here at Knox! Women's Retreat at Crieff Hills There are still just a few more spots at the Women's Retreat being held at Crieff Hills Community (near Guelph). As Nancy Matthews writes: " I went two years ago and really enjoyed myself. Not only were the sessions good, the food and rooms were super (each room has an ensuite and linen is supplied), and the fellow "retreaters" were fun and interesting. A particular treat was walking the lovely grounds, including the outdoor labyrinth. Linda says this year's speaker is very good, so "treat yourself to a retreat," and join in for this wonderful opportunity to feed body and soul!" You can find more details on this pdf of the brochure: Womensbrochure2010v1.3.pdf or call over to Crieff at You can decide to stay over in the Retreat Houses or you can also commute in from K-W (it's about a 23 minute ride). If you need help with transportation, we can help with the arrangements. Please speak to Linda Ashfield or Nancy Matthews if you have any questions.

12 Page 12 A Cross The Pews Issue 11 Why the Chimes Rang Submitted by: Jean Shantz As I view our Sanctuary, perhaps for the last time, I am compelled to share this story with the presentday congregation. The year was Canada had just experienced the enthusiasm of Canada s 100 th Birthday: 1967, culminating in visits to Expo in Montreal. All year long the Knox Congregation had celebrated by pulling out our sewing machines and fashioning clothes that might have been worn in the days of Sir John A., and wearing them proudly at a Canada Day Picnic. Sadness however came to my family when my father, Steele Mackenzie, died in Aug. of Although my mother never gave in to her grief, we knew that she was suffering. By the end of 1968, it occurred to me that perhaps by using her talent as a skilled, trained elocutionist and story-teller, she might be restored to the vibrant person she had always been. Perhaps we could dramatize a favourite Christmas story on Christmas Eve. She was famous for The Other Wiseman, a story which she told had told in many local churches on the Sundays after Christmas; but instead, we chose Why the Chimes Rang. Mother had told this story to the Mackenzie girls many times, hoping to teach us about the sacrifices and joys of living the Christian life. The story, written by a distinguished university professor, Raymond MacDonald Alden, was first published in It was a tale so loved over the years that people had considered it to be folklore - a legend come to us over the centuries. Sadly now, it often appears on the discarded lists from public libraries. It is a tale of faith and simple truth about a beautiful cathedral standing on a high hill in a far away country. Its huge gray tower sheltered a magnificent chime of Christmas bells, described as sounding like angels. For many, many years these bells had not rung, even though each year on Christmas Eve, visitors from far and wide had brought their most valued possessions to lay before the Christ Child. The bells however had remained silent. Then one year, on Christmas Eve, as the preparations were being made for the church service Pedro and Little Brother, poor children from the countryside [where visions of the tower could only be glimpsed on fine days], had a secret plan to attend the church service. It was said that sometimes the Christ child would come down to bless the service. Nobody can guess, Little Brother, but what if we could see him! As they struggled through the snow they came upon a woman, lying very ill on the path ahead. Rubbing her hands, Pedro tried to restore her with no success. It s no use Little Brother, I must stay. You will have to go on alone. You must see everything twice, once for me and once for you. If you get a chance when no one is looking, take this piece of silver and lay it on the altar. The music and glorious procession is beautifully described by the author. Many were the gifts and great was the pageantry, ending with the King who gave his crown! No sound came from the tower - only the rush of the cold wind. As the organ swelled for the closing hymn, suddenly the Chime of Bells rang from the tower. But all that the nearest of them saw was the childish figure of Little Brother, who had crept softly down the aisle when no one was looking, and had laid Pedro s little piece of silver on the altar.

13 Page 13 To put this together as a drama was a challenge, but I knew that Mother s telling of the story, [one she knew from memory] would be magical! As has always been the case with congregations at Knox, people enthusiastically rallied around. Our minister the Rev Albert Bailey said, Run with it and we were off! It required countless hours of effort to make costumes, prepare the set, practice the music, learn the speeches, and create the sound of the Chimes. How were we to produce the sound of the Chimes? This was the greatest challenge of all. Dr. Glenn Kruspe, the founder of the K.W. Symphony Orchestra, came to our rescue. At the exact moment, the quintessential sound of the Bells rang from our make-believe tower! The making of a memory is important. My most vivid recollection is that of my mother on that Christmas Eve, standing at the lectern, allowing her beautiful voice to project, filling the Sanctuary with a vision of words that expressed her own true, deep Faith. Ethereal magic! For a brief moment in time, on that Christmas Eve in 1968, Knox Presbyterian Church in Waterloo became the Cathedral on the Hill! Memories of long ago are important; this Sanctuary has witnessed so much that will remain with us forever. Now it is time not only to cherish the past, but to look ahead to the memories we shall create in our new Sanctuary. In remembrance, I should like to dedicate this account to all of those people of Knox, past and present, who made this possible.
