C hr i s t C h u rc h We s te r l y, R h o d e I s l a n d Cornerstone November 2014 RectorвЂ™s Message: The Saints of God! As this newsletter is received some time around All Saints' Day, we may be prompted to ask questions (such as, вЂњWho are the saints?вЂќ and вЂњWhat is the вЂ�communionвЂ™ of saints?вЂќ) as we affirm the Apostles Creed. According to the New Testament, the saints are not a select group of вЂњperfectвЂќ individuals. Indeed, Scripture describes them simply to be men and women who live by faith in the Christian fellowship and in whose lives the Holy Spirit is at work. When the word вЂњsaintвЂќ is used in the book of Acts or within a letter from the Apostle Paul to those in Philippi, Rome, or Corinth, it is referring to the Christ followers. Thus, the New English Bible does not use the word "saints" at all, but replaces it with the term "God's people." As we look at the lives of saints of the church, we understand some characteristics about them and their lives. First, we understand that these folks are far from вЂњordinary;вЂќ in fact, by their lives and actions of faith, they are rather extraordinary. Such actions of faith do not necessarily have to be as heroic as taking care of dying lepers on the streets of Calcutta, but may be as simple as making sure that children make it to Sunday school on time so that they could learn about Jesus, God and the Good News. What does define a saint, however, is oneвЂ™s passionate resolve to make faithful choices to live as a Christian. Another characteristic of the вЂњsaints of GodвЂќ in the New Testament is that they live in community. The communities of faith established in New Testament times in Rome, Philippi, Corinth, and Ephesus were filled with people from all walks of lifeвЂ”the rich, the poor, citizens, slaves, the healthy and the sick. And what drew them together was the grace of Christ. This grace led them to see Christ in one another. The saints of God prayed with one another, supported one another, and learned to understand each other, not withstanding their real differences. It is their model of faith that is our legacy in the Christian Church today. This legacy of faith is one that I have witnessed in our Christ Church. When I look out on Sunday mornings and see the many faithful people who are filling our church, I recognize that our church has been blessed by the prayers and faithful support of those who came before us. I am grateful for the house of worship we have, the memorials that eloquently speak of great devotion. I am grateful for the legacy of wonderful liturgy and the beautiful music, which are a part of a great tradition at Christ Church. I am also keenly aware of the stewardship of time, talents and treasure, devotedly given by past saints to nurture the faith of many in our church and to provide programs over our hundred and eighty year history. Yes we at Christ Church have been blessed because we have been a place that the saints have worshiped and lived. As I look out at our congregation in all three of our services, I see modern day saints who make choices to love and support one another as we live faithful lives unto God day after day. May God continue to bless our lives to live passionately with faith and continue to leave a model and legacy of faith for Christian saints yet to come! In Christ, Fr.

The torch was passed to the Dobson Family in 1996 and Liz Dobson has been organizing it since then. Now going strong 30 years later and with the help of 26 volunteers, they serve over 200 meals to the community. Last year, 118 meals were served at church, 65 take out and 45 were delivered. One of the volunteers, Oscar Chapman, has been volunteering for 20 years. He drives down with his daughter from New Hampshire to give a hand. Thanks to the incredible generosity of people like Oscar, McQuade's Market, Ma & Pa's in Hope Valley owned by Larry & Wendy Walsh, ConnRi and you, the dinner will take place once again. On Thursday, November 27, 2014 the dinner will be held in the Christ Church Parish Hall from 12:00 to 2:00 pm. We are looking for cooked Turkey's, Pies, Breads and monetary donations are always appreciated! All those interested are encouraged to attend. If anyone is unable to attend, we will gladly deliver meals to the local area. Interested in a take-out or delivery, please call Liz Dobson at 596-7164 or Christ Church at 596-0197.

PAGE 4 CO RN ER STO N E On Sunday, October 19, 2014, I gave a stewardship talk at the 9 am service. I did not use any notes. The following is my best recollection of what was said; I think it captures the spirit of my remarks. вЂ“ AimГ©e Blanchette My mother is a very patient woman. When I would come home on college break, instead of saying вЂњThank you, Mother. Thank you for selflessly devoting yourself to me and my brother. Thank you for paying for the fancy college, which I currently attend. Thank youвЂќ, I would say вЂњHi Mom. I need to watch my shows tonight.вЂќ I used to watch a lot of television вЂ“ and not particularly edifying television either. No, I was partial to shows featuring teens and young adults in the midst of non-stop dramas, with a lot of feelings and intense whispering. And being a very patient woman, my mother would watch those shows with me. One of these shows was called вЂњParty of FiveвЂќ and it featured five siblings who had lost both of their parents in a tragic automobile accident. The oldest brother was in his twenties and the youngest was a baby and the other three were all in the middle school/high school age range that was so ripe for emotional turmoil вЂ“ I loved it. Most of the drama came from the fact that the oldest brother didnвЂ™t really have his stuff together and was not at all ready for the responsibility of raising his four younger siblings, and was also very good-looking. The episode we watched that night was not particular memorable, just the usual assortment of minor crises, frustrations, and disappointments. At the end, my mother put down her needlepoint, turned to me and said вЂњDonвЂ™t those kids have a church?вЂќ I replied quickly вЂњNo, Mom. ItвЂ™s tv. They donвЂ™t have a church.вЂќ But then I thought for a minute and said вЂњNo, they donвЂ™t have a church. Because if they had a church, there wouldnвЂ™t be a show.вЂќ If those kids had a church, there would have been church ladies and church men lined up around the block to drive all those younger kids to all their activities. There would have been sign-up sheets to bring those kids meals. Someone probably would have had to donate a freezer just to hold all those meals. But itвЂ™s not just that. Having a church doesnвЂ™t take away unimaginable grief. Sadly, I know that from personal experience. But it does make it so much easier to bear. ItвЂ™s not just the day-to-day stuff, like rides and meals. ItвЂ™s having lots of adults of all ages around to talk to when you need to figure out which instrument you should play, or whether to stay in public school, or which college you should go to. ItвЂ™s having someone to tell you, when you are disappointed that you did not get the role of the Virgin Mary in the Christmas Pageant, that actually, the Angel Gabriel is the most important role in the Nativity. (ItвЂ™s because heвЂ™s the only one with a trumpet.) ItвЂ™s all of those people, keeping you going and encouraging you onwards, even when (especially when) you canвЂ™t encourage yourself. And thatвЂ™s why I pledge to Christ Church. Name Tags There have been increasing inquiries about the magnetically-attached name tags which my husband and I have been wearing the last few years. Because of this interest, the Vestry has decided to offer these name tags for Christ Church parishioners. We are in the process of setting up the system to do this, but we thought it would be more efficient to wait for the new parish directory which will be produced in the near future, to be sure we reach as many people as would like to be included. In the meantime, if you are interested, ask to see the name tags that my husband and I usually wear on Sundays. George and Marlies Parent, as well as Seth and Mary Tulman, also have them. You can see what you think and if you like them. They would become your personal property, and each person would keep his/her own and wear it each Sunday. It seems like a more efficient, as well as attractive, method. The magnetic system is also much kinder to your clothes than the pins the ushers wear, and less cumbersome than the hanging name tags around the neck. This note is just for your information, so you can think about it and see if you are interested! Dana Semeraro CO RN ER STO N E PAGE 5 Stewardship Imagine if there were no Christ Church. Imagine if those who came before us hadnвЂ™t had the vision or faith to build this church. We most likely wouldnвЂ™t know each other, and our lives would be very, very different. But they did build it. They build this magnificent house of God, made of beautiful Westerly blue and pink granite, right here int he heart of Westerly. They built these beautiful stained glass windows; the sturdy oak pews; its striking Altar; the sacristy; and the magnificent bell tower, the only one in Westerly, whre the bells righ out at Christmas and Easter, after weddings, and are part of the annual Summer Pops concert every year during the 1812 Overture finale, and toll after funerals of our loved ones. They maintained the lovely grounds of our church; built Sunday school rooms for their children; and they continued to grow. They built a parish house with more Sunday school rooms, and a kitchen and large parish hall, where parishioners would be abl3e to meet in fellowship. Then the next generations came along and they built our choir loft and our gorgeous Fiske organ and began our music and choir program. They built the Memorial Garden; they began Vacation Bible School in the summer to bring in even more youth in our community. They started the Arts Commission to expand our music and arts offerings; The Living Supplies Closet; Christmas gifts for Foster children;The Giving Tree; The Community Thanksgiving Dinner, and many more. The MenвЂ™s Club formed again and began tackling projects around the church; The Youth Group started up again and is continuing to grow; Christ Church now sponsors a dinner for the WARM center every month; we have very active property and grounds committees, working tirelessly, to maintain this building and work weekly outside all summer keeping everything beautiful. We are very fortunate to have some very special parishioners who take the bull by the horns and fund extra projects which only enhance the beauty of our church, like the lighting of the outside of our church at night; our new sign outside the front doors; stock a special freezer full of soups/stews and casseroles for any parishioner who might need a meal or two to get them through a tough spot; The choir paid for the re-brassing of the center aisle candles Then there are others who, A: have the knowledge and B: have the wherewithal to maintain and if needed, replace all the leather straps on all of our bells so they can continue to be played вЂ“ weвЂ™re so fortunate! Others Donate and create all of the stunning floral arrangements for our many receptions, and sometimes weddings, funerals and special services. Others Climb very tall, rickety ladders to replace the light bulbs near the ceiling in the church вЂ“ take a look! - Yikes! Then there are the hundreds of parishioners who have contracted me saying they want to have as much fun as IвЂ™m having and want to chair the Stewardship committee next year!- come on folks: the job comes with pom-poms! And there are those other quiet, behind the scenes parishioners who do all the dirty, вЂњnobody-else-is going-to-do-itвЂќ, grunt work that just вЂњmagicallyвЂќ gets done around here without any fanfare or thanks. What makes ALL of these things possible? [[[STEWARDSHIP]]] THATвЂ™S RIGHT!! Stewardship! Stewardship is NOT a spectator sport! ItвЂ™s a Make a pledge- write your check-pull yourself up by your bootstraps-dig in-pray-and make a difference, gift to the Glory of God! Boo-yah! Someone recently said to the vestry that we need to move toward year round Stewardship. Well if this small snippet of what we do here at Christ Church doesnвЂ™t scream вЂњYear round StewardshipвЂќ, I donвЂ™t know what does! continued on page 6вЂ¦ PAGE 6 CO RN ER STO N E ...continued from page 5 We are ALL GodвЂ™s faithful stewards and we continue to do wonderful things here at Christ Church. THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING YOU DO!! God is being served, here at Christ Church, and people are receiving the blessings of the Holy Spirit! Could we use more money? Absolutely!! IвЂ™m not trying to sugarcoat it: We can always use more money! ThatвЂ™s why IвЂ™m up here every week asking you for money. And fortunately, none of us have to imagine our lives without Christ Church or our Christ Church family. If any one of us said we canвЂ™t feed our family, for whatever reason, More soups, stews, and casseroles would arrive at our doorsteps than we would know what to do with. My dear friends and family of Christ church: Yes money is important and is needed to keep our church as we know it, but I ask you to give generously so our church is here for those who have lost hope, and do not have friends and family, as we do, and so our church will be here for future generations after we are gone. Let us pledge our hearts, souls and minds to carry out the work God has given us to do! The Glorious majesty of the Lord our God, be upon us! Prosper thou the work of our hands upon us. O prosper thou - our handywork! Thank you all, and THANKS, BE TO GOD! Deb Dunham, Stewardship Chair You can still make your pledge!! Papers are available in the Parish Office and the Narthex.
