1 NOVEMBER 2016 Dear Good People of Saint David s, How oddly wonderful to write that salutation! It s been only three weeks since I joined you and what a full three weeks it has been! Between sharing Communion with the community gathered for Sunday Eucharist to passing the small cup at a few home Communions, warming up with scales at Children s Choir to taking a quick jaunt up the trail to the water tower, talking with many of you at the Adult Forum on October 23 to planning more conversations these and more opportunities have shown me what a warm and interesting part of the Body of Christ lives and moves here on this green hill in West Meade. Thank you for such a warm welcome! I want to confess from the outset that I was once a parish administrator and church newsletter editor. In the Diocese of Maine, I attended a church communications workshop that talked a lot about how church newsletters function. The big take away from that day was that the rector s letter to the congregation should go somewhere on the inner pages of the newsletter so that parishioners can read about the most important or upcoming events featured on the front page. So I just wanted to let you know that probably in January or February, you will find my correspondence on the inner pages, which will leave room on the front page for events and news at Saint David s. In keeping with the notion of key things happening at Saint David s, I wanted to draw your attention to the list below of Clusters and Committees highlighting all the ministries that are alive and vibrant in this parish. Stewardship, as I define it, is all that we do with all that we have all of the time if we say we believe Christ restores our relationship with God and all of creation. Stewardship is giving generously out of the abundance God has gifted us with abundance of time, abundance of talents, abilities and skills, and abundance of riches. In other words, what we do with our time, talent and treasure makes a statement about how we are stewards of the life God had given us to live. If you haven t already, you should have received a pledge card and Stewardship letter in the mail. While this pledge card addresses the treasure portion of Stewardship, this issue of The Wild Onion offers you a summary of the opportunities to which you can pledge your time and talent. It is also an opportunity to learn more about yourself. Try a new ministry and you well may be surprised that God had planted a little seed that will grow joy in your life. Teach Sunday School and learn that our youngest members are amazing pastors. Become a Lay Eucharistic Visitor and take communion

2 along with the love and fellowship of this community to our brothers and sisters who are unable to attend. Learn how to knit and make a prayer shawl for someone whose life needs care-filled bundling. Join the choir and learn that it s actually true what Augustine said, Those who sing, pray twice! Become a Daughter of the King and experience the power of prayer. Start a Saint David s Men s group. Or do whatever God nudges you to do in this community to become more and more alive and contribute to the world s healing! I hope you will join me, the Stewardship Committee and the Vestry in pledging something of your time, talent and treasure to the mission and ministry active and very well in this parish. We have been given so much. With so much, God gives us much to do. It is up to us to be good stewards of God s dream for us. In peace, Carolyn+ ST.

5 Thankful for all God has given us. GODLY PLAY by Jennifer Sanders Thankful for our gifts Our precious children.

Some sessions of this program were viewed and discussed in Adult Forum earlier this year. After viewing a short video, Dotty Tucker will lead the discussion. We have found these programs to be both positive and informative. We have much to share and learn from other denominations. It's especially helpful to hear from those of you who have come to the Episcopal Church via various other traditions. Class topics: Nov. 6: the Pentecostal Church Nov. 13: the Methodist Church Nov. 20: the Anglican Church (a worthy repeat) Nov 27: is first Sunday in Advent. Program will be announced soon. 5 The Adult Forum Committee will meet on Nov 10 to determine future classes. If you have a topic to suggest, please speak to one of the committee members: Heather Cass, Aaron Connolly, Ann McNair, Chad Schmidt, and Dotty Tucker. Mary Jo Murphy and Julie Erwin are the Vestry liaisons and the Rev. Carolyn Coleman and the Rev. Dr. Molly Dale Smith advise the committee. Everyone is invited to join these Sunday morning classes which begin at 9:30 a.m. in Sanders Hall unless otherwise noted. St. David's hosts Room in the Inn on the second Saturday of each winter month (November-March). Volunteers prepare and serve supper, set up and break down tables, spend the night with our guests, and wash sheets, towels and tablecloths. This is an excellent chance to spend time with and learn from our homeless friends, and volunteers always have a lot of fun! November 12 is the first night that St. David s will host this fall. To volunteer please sign up on the board outside Sanders Hall or contact RITI coordinator Josh McGuire, joshua.a.mcguire@vanderbilt.edu, Future dates are December 10, January 14, February 11, and March 11. MS. CHEAP S PENNY DRIVE FOR SECOND HARVEST FOOD BANK by Heather Cass Members of St. David s are again invited to participate in Mary Hance s (aka Ms. Cheap) Penny Drive for Second Harvest Food Bank. Ms. Cheap began this campaign seven years ago and, with the support of community minded individuals like yourself, we have raised over $300,000, providing more than 1.2 million meals for Middle Tennesseans who are struggling with hunger. This year s campaign will run from November 1 to January 31. Please pick up a penny can in Sanders Hall now if you are interested in donating your change to this program for the next few months and thank you!

Joan Green, jellisgreen@gmail.com, Betsey Duggan, ec.duggan@comcast.net, Derrill McRae, derrill.mcrae@comcast.net, Helping Art Teachers Teach Everyone The first time art teacher Daryl Wilkinson worked with a visually impaired student, she struggled. Color and shape, the solid ground that artists typically take for granted, were unsteady in this new context. The teacher and student managed to get through the year, but Daryl was left with an uncomfortable feeling: I m not sure what I m doing here. Eventually she did something about it. After meeting another visually impaired student and watching her own granddaughter, Rowan, lose her sight as the result of a stroke, Daryl enrolled in the Program for Visual Impairments at Vanderbilt University s Peabody College of Education and Human Development. I realized how important it was for me to be able to teach any child, with sight or without, with as much knowledge and expertise as I could. Daryl wrote those words in the introduction to her book, Art Beyond the Eyes: A Handbook For Visual Art Teachers Working with Students with Visual Impairments. Published in 2014, the year after she graduated from Vanderbilt with a master s degree in special education for visual impairments, the book helps art teachers by offering sample lesson plans, a list of alternative materials, and suggestions for adapting materials and techniques for students with low vision, those who are blind, and those with multiple disabilities, according to the description at Amazon.com. Daryl is now a certified teacher of students with visual impairments and teaches special education at Amqui Elementary School in Madison. She is the mother of three children and four grandchildren and is St. David s Senior Warden, helps with the Children s Choirs, and is a member of the Adult Choir. DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME ENDS NOVEMBER 6: Remember to set your clocks back one hour before retiring on Saturday night, November 5. 6

8 MY THANKSGIVING LITANY For Prayers for healing For St. David's parish For Eucharist brought to the pew For my family, friends and neighbors For great medical care For food, prepared or purchased and delivered For groceries purchased, brought in and put away For visits, telephone calls and lovely cards For transportation to Dr.'s appointments, Bible class, meetings, respiratory therapy, and bridge games, For showers supervised For laundry done, mail picked up and garbage taken out, Dear St. David's family: Words cannot express the gratitude I feel for this church. You have exhibited compassion and love to me in so many ways during this difficult time. This is a very special community and I thank you from the bottom of my heart. Annette Pilcher The Annual Thanksgiving Eve Service will take place in the nave on November 23, at 6:00 p.m. SECURING OUR FUTURE UPDATE by John Kitch, Junior Warden Securing Our Future was the name given to the St. David s Capital Campaign, begun in Its purpose was to raise money to upgrade the physical plant to meet codes, improve the Christian Education classrooms, nursery and children s worship areas, modernize bathrooms, add an elevator, and finish 7 Sanders Hall. As the project moved forward additional work had to be done in terms of asbestos abatement and work on the HVAC system. A plan to add a Columbarium was also implemented. A bequest from Sue Evans kickstarted the columbarium part of the project and the Columbarium Committee has paid back the necessary cost to complete the columbarium. The generosity of our church members was such that, of the over $750,000, plus $68,000 for the Columbarium, required for the project, we only had to finance $395,153. As of September 2016 the outstanding loan is just over $129,000. In addition to making regular monthly payments St. David s has paid an extra $128,257 toward the loan principal over the years, thus hastening the day the loan will be paid in full. The current Vestry is committed to taking reasonable and prudent steps to accelerate payment when we can without adversely impacting our annual budgeting process. VESTRY NEWS Nominations are being received for persons to serve as the Vestry Class of 2019; elections will take place at the Annual Parish Meeting on Sunday, January 15, 2017, at 9:15 a.m. To serve on the Vestry one must be 18 years of age, baptized, confirmed and in good standing in the church. To nominate someone (or yourself) please contact one of the outgoing Vestry Class of 2016: Michael Cass, Cal Fox, Sarah Riebau, and Daryl Wilkinson. At the November 14 Vestry Meeting three delegates will be elected to represent St. David s at the 185th Annual Convention of the Diocese of Tennessee, at Christ Church Cathedral, January 20-21, Delegates must be confirmed communicants in good standing, at least 18 years of age. Contact a Vestry member if you are interested. Note to Ministry and Committee Chairpersons: The Finance Committee is preparing the 2017 church budget for presentation to the Vestry. Please let St. David s Treasurer Scott Rayhab know if you need a budget request form. Please send budget requests to the church office by November 18.
