Family Ministries at Saint John’s Cathedral

19 25

From the Dean: BECOMING CHRISTIANS There is no point in the Christian life at which we can say “I have arrived.” The Christian life is always one of movement – a movement of the mind, the heart, the spirit, and the body. It is movement in the first place nearer to God, but movement also nearer to our fellow human beings in compassion and solidarity. The entire human family shares a common future toward an ancient destiny – a destiny that has been restored to us by Jesus’ resurrection from the dead – and learning to be with each other for eternity begins in this life.

If we understand fairly easily that the Christian life is about the movement of our souls toward a deeper union with God, we also can grow to understand that our bodies become vehicles for our spiritual growth when we give them over to worship. We laugh that Episcopalians love “pew aerobics,” but there is truth to the observation that our bodies can point us Godward. Our participation in worship, therefore, moves us along the path of union with God; not just in what we say and sing, but also in how we hold ourselves in that time of worship.

There is also the movement of the heart; a movement prompted, fed, and healed by love. The truly human heart is made, it is not born. Or perhaps it is better to say that the truly human heart is forged on the hard anvil of human living.

Living can make us bigger people, more able to love; or living can make us smaller people, less able to love. We have some choices here, and nothing is determined.

A great deal of our formation in the Christian life is going to happen when we gather with other Christians in attentive and hopeful learning. Classical Christianity, especially a tradition like ours that values both its catholic and its reformed heritages, has always understood that faith must seek understanding. “I do not understand,” wrote Saint Anselm, a great Archbishop of Canterbury, “so that I may have faith; rather I have faith so that I may understand.” Anselm also reminded us clearly that a faith that merely believes what it ought to believe is dead.

Here at the Cathedral, we take all these types of formation – the movement of the Christian life – seriously. Every ministry is shaped to encourage, to broaden, to deepen our formation as individuals and as a community. Whether that formation comes from giving ourselves over to the rhythms of our daily and weekly worship, or from sacrificial giving of our talents and resources for the well-being of others, or from learning what it might mean to live a more authentic Christian life in the way we work, the Cathedral is a community for those who want to be on this moving cycle of the Christian life.

The reformed Catholic faith that we live as Episcopalians is a rich tradition that demands a great deal from us. There are reasons why we do what we do, think the ways that we think, believe the ways that we believe, and we need to learn all this. If our worship is our faith “in motion,” then our learning is our faith “in exploration.” All of this movement is gathered up in lives of integrity that are held together in tension by the cross that is traced on our foreheads at our baptisms.

As we look to a new program year, we begin this month with our Cathedral Retreat at Cathedral Ridge, a wonderful way in which to engage in the movement of formation with our fellow Christians here. On Sundays and on Wednesdays at Cathedral Nite from September onwards, there will be renewed opportunities for formation in worship and learning that will help us to grow and become more and more the human beings and the Christians that God calls us to be.

Join us in this great movement of the Christian life. Come to the Cathedral Retreat in August. Join the Catechumenate if you have not done it already, or one of the other formation groups on Cathedral Nite. Commit to attending one of the new Sunday morning groups. Try the Dean’s Bible Study on Wednesday mornings when it resumes in September.

Think about EFM. Make being present at the beautiful candlelit service of Compline in Wednesday evenings part of your life.

To paraphrase a line from The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel: “There is so much to do. Why do you not come out?”

“The retreat was a great time to bond with other cathedral parishioners.

Many of the smiles and waves I share after services are due to spending quality time with others at the retreat last year. A whole new group of people has opened up to me now! I can’t wait for the next retreat at Cathedral Ridge.” -Amy Davis “I bunked in a bunkhouse and expected to rough it a bit. Was astonished how pleasant, clean, and convenient it was! It was fun bunking with other gals....an additional chance to chat and get to know other parishioners!” -Micaela Larsen Brown

The Catechumenate: Practicing the Way Cathedral Nite, September 11 through May 14 Location: Dagwell Hall Leader: Dean Eaton

The Catechumenate (pronounced “kat-uh-KEW-meh-nut”) is for those who have never been part of a church, those who are returning to church after a long absence, or those who have been members of another tradition. It is the heart of our formation process for adults, an exploration of what it means to be a Christian in the Anglican tradition, and serves as the principal process by which we welcome newcomers to Saint John’s Cathedral, the Episcopal Church and the Christian faith. Each week, class members gather in the chapel following supper for brief devotional introducing classic Christian disciplines, then return to Dagwell Hall for a presentation and table conversation. For more information, please contact Michael Koechner at koechnermc@hotmail.com.

The Bible in a Year

Cathedral Nite, beginning September 11 Facilitated by Clergy Most vibrant and growing churches share something in common – they have a strong commitment to teaching and reading the Bible. There is a vast difference between attending church and listening to a portion of the Bible being read aloud and reading the Bible on your own. Understanding how the entire Word of God coheres and what God is saying to you daily through Holy Scripture is a transformational experience. It also makes worship come even more alive. It is the difference between riding in a car as a passenger and not paying close attention to the route being taken versus driving the car and learning the roads that get you to your destination. We will read the Bible in short daily selections over the course of a year. When we meet each week, we will have the opportunity to reflect on what we are reading and how God is speaking to us through the Scriptures. If you have been wanting to start reading the Bible, this is a great opportunity for you and if you have read it through and through, this is also an opportunity to delve even more deeply into it with friends.

Life Consecrated: Living the Eucharist Cathedral Nite, September 11, 18, & 25 Leader: Father Robert Hendrickson

Jesus commanded his followers to share in the Eucharist as an act of service and worship and they have done so ever since – across ages and continents (and even on the moon). Christians witness and love take their shape from the form of this shared sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving. How can we find the shape of our lives as individuals and a community modeled and renewed in the encounter with Christ that is the Mass? This three week course, led by Father Robert Hendrickson, will look at the share of the liturgy, its development, and ways we can open ourselves in devotion and prayer to the Presence of Christ.

Financial Peace

Cathedral Nite, September 11 through November 13 Leaders: Mike Orr and Tim Dunbar We all need a plan for our money. Financial Peace is that plan! It teaches God’s ways of handling money. Through video teaching, class discussions and interactive small group activities, Financial Peace presents biblical, practical steps to get from where you are to where you’ve dreamed you could be. This plan will show you how to get rid of debt, manage your money, spend and save wisely, and much more! Financial Peace classes meet for around an hour and a half each week for ten weeks. Register and purchase class materials at sjcathedral.org/FinancialPeace.

Cathedral Nite Formation Groups (continued)

Living the Call: Responding Authentically to God Cathedral Nite, October 2, 9, 16, & 23 Leader: Mother Elizabeth Marie Melchionna

Throughout the Old Testament, people like Abraham, Isaac, Moses, Jacob, and Samuel all respond to God’s call: “Here I am!” How do we respond to God’s call in our lives? Vocational discernment is relevant to us at all ages.

We will draw from the work of Frederick Buechner’s book, The Hungering Dark, to examine our sense of call, identify our core values, and explore ways in which we might realign our life practices to follow God’s call more authentically.

Living the Church Year: Feasts, Fasts, and Seasons of Intention Cathedral Nite, October 30, November 6, 13, & 20 Leader: Father Jadon Hartsuff

Each year, the Church lives out a series of days and seasons with different meanings, moods, and purposes – from liturgical seasons like Advent, Epiphany, and Lent to a variety of feasts and holy days. How did this calendar develop? What do all these seasons and days “mean?” How are we formed by observing and living into the Church’s calendar, and what are some ways that we can do that? Join Father Jadon Hartsuff for this four week exploration of the tradition and spirituality of the church year.

My Soul Magnifies the Lord: Hearing the Blessed Mother Today Cathedral Nite, December 4, 11, & 18 Leader: Mother Liz Costello

Dorothy Day once said, “Advent begins with Mary who presents to us the infant Christ.” Come reflect on what Mary’s life might teach us about the Christian life. Mary, who followed Christ from cradle, to grave, to empty tomb, is commonly considered the first follower of Jesus. Historically, the Church has viewed her life as the pattern for grace and hope in Christ – a model for discipleship. To learn more about Mary’s life and what we might learn from it, we will look at the Magnificat in depth, with some reference to “Mary Grace and Hope in Christ,” an agreed statement produced by The Anglican-Roman Catholic International Commission (ARCIC).

11

“Catechumenate” may be hard to pronounce (kat-uhKEW-meh-nut) and harder to spell. The name comes from Greek words meaning “teach by telling” and “learn by hearing” and ultimately from the word “echo.”

12

Once again, a new Catechumenate goup will begin in September. The Catechumenate is a way into deeper engagement with the life of faith, and is especially helpful to newcomers to the Cathedral and newcomers to adult Christian faith. We encourage all those who are new to Saint John’s or who are exploring their Christian faith as adults to be a part of this lifechanging experience.

But the Catechumenate is also a wonderful exploration for those who have been members of the parish for years, or who have been Christians for a long time, who would like to renew their engagement with questions of faith and life. The Catechumenate flourishes because both the “old” and the “new” in faith are part of this community.

If you are interested in joining the Catechumenate, speak to one of the clergy, or just show up on Cathedral Nite on September 11 at 5:30 for the Eucharist, followed by supper at 6:15 pm. At 7:00 pm, we shall have an introduction to the Catechumenate, and answer all your questions. At 8:30 pm, we go to the chapel for Compline by candlelight.

Life-long learning and formation are a normal part of life, and a normal part of the Christian life. Join us for the Catechumenate, and grow!

Sunday Morning Formation Groups Bible in a Year

Beginning Sunday, September 15 at 10:15 am Facilitated by Clergy Most vibrant and growing churches share something in common – they have a strong commitment to teaching and reading the Bible. There is a vast difference between attending church and listening to a portion of the Bible being read aloud and reading the Bible on your own.

Understanding how the entire Word of God coheres and what God is saying to you daily through Holy Scripture is a transformational experience. It also makes worship come even more alive.

It is the difference between riding in a car as a passenger and not paying close attention to the route being taken versus driving the car and learning the roads that get you to your destination.

The Curate’s Corner: Everyday Spirituality Beginning Sunday, September 15 at 10:15 am

Join our Curate, Liz Costello, each week this season for informal conversation about personal practices of prayer and piety for everyday life. Liz will begin each week by exploring a written prayer from the Anglican tradition, focused on topics such as hospitality, pregnancy and childbirth, desert and dessert times, death and dying, and other topics from our everyday lives.

The specific prayer or reading will focus a more general conversation about the topic and how we might interact more spiritually with all that we encounter in day-to-day life.

Monday Night Formation Group

Education for Ministry

Mondays: September 9 to May 2013, 6:30 to 8:30 pm Location: Common Room Leader: The Rev’d Stewart Jones EfM, or Education for Ministry, is a world-wide Adult Education program developed by the School of Theology of the University of the South. It holds that the foundation for bringing Christ to the world lies in a Church empowered by an active, theologically articulate laity. The objective of EfM is to help lay men and women deepen their theological foundation, strengthen their ability to minister to others, and to support them on their spiritual journeys. EfM seminar members commit to one year at a time as they explore the basics of theological education: Old Testament (Year 1), New Testament (Year 2), Church History (Year 3), and Liturgy and Theology (Year 4). The full course entails four years of study, and each year consists of approximately 34 sessions. You will be asked to commit for one year at a time. For more information, please contact Father Robert at Robert@sjcathedral.org.

In September, we shall have a series of congregational conversations about formation, community, and how we understand our common life together. Please join us, beginning Sunday, September 15, in Dagwell Hall at 10:15 am for the Dean’s Forums.

September 8 – Saint John’s Day: Ministries Fair and Block Party After the 10:00 am Eucharist, join us on the West Lawn for a Block Party and Ministries Fair where you will learn about many of our activities, and be able to see how you can participate more fully in our parish life.

September 15, 10:15 in Dagwell Hall – Growing Up Again in Christ Christians are born again in baptism, and are called to grow up again in the Christian life. In the journey of growing up again, our formation is crucial. Today, we shall consider the many ways in which Christians are formed in their life and faith in response to our Baptismal Covenant and to our mission “to know Christ and make Christ known.”

September 22, 10:15 in Dagwell Hall – It’s All About Community Join us as we reflect together on our Cathedral weekend, “Cathedral Under the Stars,” and hear stories of our rich life as a community of women and men, young and old, new Christians and those who have been on the journey for longer.

September 29, 10:15 in Dagwell Hall – Resonate: What Resonates with You? Our new Canon Steward and members of the Resonate Team will lead us in a conversation about the life of our Cathedral community, and the imaginative ways in which we can both understand our common life and think about our future together.

THE CATHEDRAL STEWARD

by Father Charles LaFond July 2013

Since the great cathedrals first rose out of the Dark Ages, they have offered protection, healing, preaching, leadership.

They have been centers of learning, political discourse, worship, and ecclesial administration. The cathedrals offered hospitality in an inhospitable world. Hospitality is in fact is at the heart of what we do and who we are at Saint John’s.

‘Hospitality’ is derived from the Latin hospes (host) or hostis (stranger, enemy), from which the word ‘hostile’ derives. So the very notion of hospitality is rooted in the ancient expectation of welcome. Hosts welcome not only those who are like them but also the needy, hostile-seeming stranger.

Although they are fluid places, cathedrals have resilient resident communities of regular worshipers, parishioners, and staff people.

Saint John’s is no different. I am getting to know our community of regulars and to recognize the many new faces—so much so I now see strangers flowing through our doors. They find the cathedral while here on business or on their way to places far flung. As it happens, I met two such strangers this past Sunday evening, at the dinner that follows the Wilderness service. They were passing through. They needed a place to worship. And they found Saint John’s.

The new Chapter of canons—Robert, Elisabeth Marie, Jaden, Liz, and I—are all strangers to you now. We bring new, and even strange, ways from faroff places. Virginia. Michigan.

Pennsylvania. North Carolina. New Hampshire. New Haven. New ways can be fresh, exciting, and effective, of course. But they can also be strange, even hostile, to comfortable custom and tradition. But ours is a living faith, fed by the new, and the cathedral is a living, ever-changing place. As you extend your hospitality—as you host us and welcome us as strangers—my sure hope is that we will grow to recognize each other as friends and colleagues in ministry.

16

As a Canon Steward, I am responsible for raising money and people to strengthen the mission of the Cathedral through empowering that mission with resources. Having been a fund raiser for 25 years, a monk for three, a priest for 12, and an Anglican for 40, I am glad to be doing work I know and love.

And although I work to raise the funds we need to be the church, I also play an equal role among the chapter as pastor, teacher, spiritual leader and even, occasionally, prophet.

My new work here reminds me very much of my role as Cellarer at the Monastery of Saint John the Evangelist in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The Cellarer—like the canon steward an ancient office—cares for the temporal aspects of monastic life. He makes sure the cellar is stocked, that meals are prepared, and that the herb and vegetable gardens are productive. The Cellarer provides.

As steward and cellarer of the Cathedral, I am charged with the task of leading us into a deeper understanding of the many ways in which we are each providers—for each other, for this place, and for this planet— with our money, our time, our talent, and our joy.

The cathedral is yours. It is not mine. It is not the chapter’s. The cathedral belongs to you: the longtime members and the new members and everyone in between.

You are Saint John’s. We the clergy are here as your pastors. You, not we, are the hosts.

My job as canon steward is to remind the congregation and chapter that our calling is not to eke out an existence nor to pay our bills. Our calling, like that of every church, is to manifest the great hope we have in God. Few churches rise to this calling.

My job as priest is to shepherd the conversations we have around money, time, and resources. My job as Christian is to model good stewardship of my time, my love, my money, and my selfcare. And my job as prophet is to wander past the ordinary, to skip past “the way we have always done it,” to run past “that sounds difficult,” and careen into the impossible, wonderful, extraordinary dreams God has for this Cathedral, this city, and this planet. If the impossibly extraordinary scares you, then pray, take a deep breath, grab someone’s hand, and run toward the Holy Spirit’s longings for you and for this place until we see those things we can together accomplish. We will tumble from time to time. We may fall. But what a great adventure we will have had, together.

A Daily Blog by Father Charles La Fond, Canon Steward Every morning, my routine includes feeding Kai, making about this long or shorter and will take 1-3 minutes to some good, rich coffee, and sitting in the garden to watch read. They will cover various subjects but will focus on the sun rise over the trees. I drink deep of this time of the stewardship of our lives. Some posts will include a day. My dog, Kai, plays with sticks, wanders the fence biblical verse or a line of poetry. Others will quote and line, and then sleeps by my chair until it is time to go to comment on an aphorism from a great thinker while morning prayer at the Cathedral. This is a time of deep others will simply remind us of things we knew but had stillness in which I can listen for God’s “still, small voice” need of remembering. The photos with each blog entry and in which I can be mindful of my life. How are things will be from area gardens in Denver or from details of the fabric of the Cathedral such going?

The People Behind the Presents Knowingly or unknowingly, you have probably helped them. If you have put cash in the collection plate, volunteered with a ministry or purchased a gift for the Giving Trees at Christmas, you have touched their lives.

They are the people behind the presents.

From time to time, your gifts and donations may feel intangible or unrelatable, but they couldn’t be more personal. Behind every present you give is a person.

They have hopes, dreams, families, fears, hurts and smiles, just like you and me. Some may be ill, may have struggled and suffered most of their lives or maybe they have temporarily fallen on hard times.

Over the next few months, we’d like to introduce you to some of the organizations who serve the people behind the presents, those who benefit from your kindness, compassion and generosity.

CHARG Resource Center creates a partnership among individuals who live with mental illness with mental health professionals and the Denver community. CHARG offers resources not otherwise adequately available, empowers the mentally ill with new skills and advocates for those with chronic mental illness.

CHARG helps its guests express themselves and create connections through art. Brian, a creative artist challenged with various disabilities, has been able to use his lifelong passion for drawing as a positive outlet.

Another project, Starfish on Broadway, produces a compilation CD with music written and performed by mentally ill and homeless musicians living in Denver.

The Delores Project provides safe, comfortable overnight shelter for single women without children, a homeless population that is too often overlooked. The organization welcomes female guests into a peaceful, hospitable and respectful environment with 50 beds for transitional or

18

emergency shelter.

Delores Big Boy, a Lakota woman who often slept on Denver’s streets, suffered from health, developmental and substance abuse issues, in addition to physical and sexual violence. As a single homeless woman, Delores fell through the cracks of the system and ultimately passed away. The Delores Project was founded in her honor to help the many women in similar situations.

Caring Association for Native Americans (CANA) brings comfort and assistance to Native Americans with chronic illnesses and life-threatening conditions who must travel to Denver from Western Indian reservations for medical treatment. CANA also provides emergency food, shelter and clothing for accompanying family members.

In February, CANA asked its members to pray for Chief Oliver Red Cloud, who arrived in Colorado from Rapid City, South Dakota. Once he was in stable condition, volunteers were able to visit and offer support. Denver is one of the nation’s major medical treatment centers for Native Americans like Chief Oliver Red Cloud, and these services are critical for the health of the Native American community.

This winter, The Giving Trees will once again be presented by the Urban and Social Concerns Commission at Saint John’s. Many adults, children and families associated with these agencies and those we will introduce in the next few months will be the recipients of your generosity.

USCC represents Saint John’s community outreach ministries, and in its work includes the Loaves and Fishes, Habitat for Humanity and the Giving Tree programs.

If you are interested in information about the USCC agencies, please visit us at the Saint John’s web site Serving in the Community page or email Rob Vock at USCC@SJCathedral.org.

Landmark Judgment in Favor of Saint John’s Cathedral Upheld On Monday, June 10, the United States Supreme Court denied a petition from a fundamentalist Christian group to hear an appeal of a judgment entered in favor of Saint John’s Cathedral by the Denver District Court. This brings a final and conclusive end to the litigation in which the Cathedral has been involved since 2005. The result is a landmark First Amendment judgment on the relationship between the freedom of speech and the freedom of religion.

Wartburg College West Wartburg West’s Urban Semester in Denver is designed to give Wartburg students experiential learning in an urban setting, where they clarify their vocational goals and values and develop personal and professional skills. 13 students will arrive for Fall term on August 18.

During the Fall and Winter terms, Wartburg West participants receive academic credit both for their internship and for classes taught by the program directors.

The directors, the Reverends Nelson and Bonita Bock, are committed to finding and facilitating quality internship placements for Wartburg West students. They work closely with students to identify and secure placements that meet their needs and objectives. The directors welcome suggestions from students regarding companies and agencies to investigate.

They would also welcome interest in hosting interns by members of the Saint John’s Cathedral community.

Fall term courses include 1) The Metropolis: Participation in, analysis of, and reflection on urban life and issues from cultural, sociological, and environmental perspectives. 2) Immigrant Communities and their Religious Traditions: The primary objective is to understand the importance of religious identity and beliefs in the development of human society and its impact on culture. 3) Elements of Leadership: Explores theories of leadership while engaging in a leadership project. 4) Living in a Diverse World: Diverse cultures and life styles unpacked.

For many years, a small fundamentalist Christian group, led by local street preacher Ken Scott, conducted demonstrations outside the Cathedral on many occasions. They had come to focus on Palm Sunday and Easter Day, when the Cathedral community conducts religious services and activities outdoors. Their demonstrations significantly disrupted worship and clearly upset parishioners, especially children.

Over time the Cathedral had tried a number of ways to discourage this interference, but without effect. Then in 2005, a new parishioner and attorney, David Ball, along with the then SubDean, Stephen Carlsen, were so disturbed by the demonstration that they resolved to try to obtain a restraining order. The petition for a temporary restraining order was heard four days later, on Good Friday, and granted. Subsequently, that restraining order became permanent.

Since the granting of the permanent order, Mr. Scott has been appealing the judgment through the legal system. The judgment in favor of the Cathedral has been upheld through a series of appeals, and now cannot be challenged further. Mr. Scott and his group may still demonstrate, but they must stand in a specific area across the street and down the block in a place where the interference with the Cathedral’s religious worship and activities will be minimal.

“We are of course delighted with the final outcome of this case,” said the Dean, the Very Reverend Peter Eaton. “Both Mr. Scott’s freedom of speech and our freedom of worship have been upheld, and we now have a ‘buffer zone’ between us and the demonstrators.”

Eaton added, “This case now also stands as a significant precedent that other religious institutions can use in similar circumstances.

I am pleased that the outcome of this case helps not only us, but other congregations that may not have the resources that the Cathedral has to see a process like this to the end.”

Two well-known Denver law firms where several Cathedral parishioners work, Bryan Cave HRO and Faegre Baker Daniels, took on the Cathedral’s case on a pro bono basis. “We could not have accomplished this,” said Eaton, “without the considerable generosity and help of many people, especially our attorneys and their colleagues.”

Two Important Feasts in August From the liturgical point of view, the summer is a “slow” time.

Intentionally the Church gives us time to grow in our lives of faith by focusing not on the excitements of various feasts, but on the everyday commitment of following Jesus. Our Sunday readings focus on the “basics:” faithfulness, generosity, love of neighbor, self-sacrifice, and other Christian practices and attitudes that accomplish what we call the “conversion of life.”

However, in August there are two great feasts. The first is the Feast of the Transfiguration on August 6. We know this story well enough, but it has deep religious and spiritual significance for each of us.

And then on August 15, we keep the Feast of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary. This is traditionally the feast on which we commemorate her death, and throughout the Christian world this is her greatest feast day.

We shall celebrate the Eucharist on both these feasts in the Chapel at 5:30 pm.

Feast of the Transfiguration - August 6 Feast of the Blessed Virgin Mary - August 15 20

OuT oF THe ARCHIVeS Saint Martin’s Chapel

by Robert “Woody” Woodward 1931-2007, Cathedral Archivist for over 30 years Published January 1990, Open Door The inscription over the main door of Saint Martin’s Chapel reads, “My house shall become of all nations a house of prayer.”

In 1894, Marion Grace Hendrie, Anne Evans, and Elisabeth Spalding, daughter of Bishop Spalding, founded the Artists Club of Denver, an organization which later was charterd as the Denver Art Museum.

In 1921, Marion Hendrie and Elisabeth Spalding persuaded the Diocese of Colorado to constitute a Commission on Church Architecture and the Allied Arts to encourage and guide parishes and missions in obtaining the best possible design in buildings and furnishings. When Saint John’s Cathedral undertook the building of Saint Martin’s Chapel and the parish building in 1926, Dean Dagwell placed the responsbilitiy for its design in the hands of Marion Hendrie and the Art Commission.

The little booklet prepared shortly after the chapel’s completion states, “Appreciation of art lies in the ability to understand the spirit in which it has been created. Because the members of the Commission of Architecture and the Allied Arts of the Diocese of Colorado feel strongly that work planned by an individual artist for a definite place has a greater spiritual content than work produced in quantity, they have sought cooperation with artists in the building of Saint Martin’s Chapel. Denver is unusually fortunate in having artists of international recognition, and it is conceded that their thought and effort have created a chapel of great spiritual and artistic beauty.” This booklet provides an excellent description of the many art works incorporated in the chapel.

The most dominant work is the reredos for “The Children

of Saint John’s Cathedral,” given by Mrs. Hendrie. The artist was Arnold Ronnebeck, who came to Denver in 1923 from Prussia in northern Germany. Mrs. Ursula Moore Works, a present member of the Cathedral Arts and Architecture Committee, is Arnold Ronnebeck’s daughter. The carving was executed by John Robert Henderson, who taught wood carving in Denver schools for 30 years and later worked on the Mount Rushmore sculptures. The 1928 booklet erroneously credits this work to a William Henderson. When completed, the Rocky Mountain News reported that this was among the largest church wood carvings in the world. The gold leaf was added to the halos in 1989 when the reredos and ceiling were cleaned.

The altar cross, from a design of a 10th-century cross in the museum at Ravenna, Italy, and the candlesticks were executed by the artist Joseph Hurlburt.

These candlesticks were stolen in 1976, and identical replacements were carved by Al Aspenwall, a retired Navy man and teacher of woodworking in Jefferson County. In May, while this project was in progress, the altar cross was also stolen. Mr. Aspenwall carved the candlesticks and a new cross from the photos provided from the archives by the late Louisa Arps.

Three mural panels by John Edward Thompson are on the south wall. It was decided that a rival attraction might destroy the importance of the altar. After much study and experimentation, three separate panels, to be rich and low in color and contrast, were decided upon. It is interesting to note that part of this experimentation were two panels by the artist Albert Olsen. These panels now form the reredos behind the altar at Saint Andrew’s Mission (observe Saint John’s Cathedral in the corner of one of the panels). Other experimentation evidently involved the lighting; you can see that at one time there were six, not four, chandeliers. The vestry minutes of December 17, 1928, include a resolution that “the sale of six electric lighting fixtures taken out of the Chapel and sold to Saint Mark’s Church for $90.00 to be ratified and approved.” No evidence of these lights can now be found at Saint Mark’s. All of the lighting in the chapel was updated and brightened in 1989 in memory of Watson A. Bowes, Sr.

Library News

During the summer months we have been conducting our annual inventory of the library collection. We now have over 4,500 books on the shelves, and we are delighted that so many of our parishioners have found the scope and variety of the collection to be helpful, whether looking for Biblical studies or materials on prayer, meditation, social issues, or Church history. All the titles and topics are available on the Saint John’s website— just look under Resources/Library. If you would like to reserve a book, or if you have a book checked out that you are still reading and would like to renew, please call the library at 303.577.7728 or emailus at library@ sjcathedral.org. We understand that it often takes quite a while to “read, mark, learn, and inwardly digest” a good book, and we want to give you plenty of time to do so.

As we draw closer to the start of our new program year, we are looking forward to the opening sessions of the Catechumenate, the Dean’s Forum, EFM, and Adult Education classes. The library will be providing displays

of available materials, and there is computer access to lists of resources for the various topics to be covered in each of these programs. We will also be encouraging visits—and checkouts—from all the members of Saint John’s congregation throughout the year.

Our annual celebration of Saint John’s Day in September is always a joyous occasion and, as always, the Library will be represented following the Sunday service on September 8. We look forward to greeting everyone and we also hope to entice a few parishioners to sign up as volunteers to help keep the library open during the week.

We would appreciate a three-hour commitment once a week, with the opportunity to read or study in the peace and quiet of our beautiful library. Perks also include getting to meet our growing cadre of dedicated readers, the ability to check out lots of books, with generous renewal privileges, and the opportunity to read the new books first!

Online Library Access Saint John’s Cathedral houses over 4,300 books in our collection! To view titles, authors, and book information in our library conveniently online now, please visit sjcathedral.org/Library.

It’s 6:00 am

at the Saint Francis Center

A long line of men and women has already formed along Curtis Street and Park Avenue. Many are leaning against the wall, tired from walking the streets all night or stiff from being curled up in a corner somewhere. Last night, some were lucky enough to have pulled a number that got them into a shelter. Many wear too many clothes for this hot morning, knowing the rules of the street, “wear it or lose it.” Feet are tired and sore from too many hours in ill fitting shoes, and socks are doubled up for better protection.

But they feel fortunate too. As soon as the door opens at the largest day time homeless center in the Western US, they will be greeted by a volunteer who calls them by name. They’ll find a seat at the long rows of tables, read a book or play cards in the quiet of the room that will fill with several hundred people, many recently homeless. They’ll use the newly expanded restroom facilities that do not require them to stand in another long line.

They will shower, maybe pick out some clean clothes...other people’s clothes, but clean clothes that feel and smell good. Mail delivery will be checked, the message board scanned, and calls will be made on the center’s phones. A volunteer will help them replace their stolen driver’s license or birth certificate. Some will speak with the mental health and social workers. Many will check in with the employment office for an hourly job, or receive counseling on preparing resumes for long term jobs. And, permanent housing possibilities will be explored, for a place that will give them the stability to get their lives going again, become productive citizens, help their families and others, just as the Center has helped them.

This is the Saint Francis Center, established by the Episcopal Diocese in 1983, with Canon Bert Womack as the first Executive Director.

Every Fall, the Saint Francis Center hosts their major fundraising event, a silent and live auction and dinner at the Marriott Downtown. Over 500 guests will come together on the 30th year clebration to raise money that will make an enormous difference in the daily lives of people who are hoping to see that light at the end of the tunnel.

Please join in this effort on October 12 by planning to attend this enjoyable and informative evening and donating items for the silent and live auction. Tami Door of the Downtown Partnership will be honored.

For information on tickets and to donate auction items, please contact Nancy Wiseman at nancy_wiseman@comcast.net or visit sfcdenver.org.

“God said, ‘See, I have given you every plant yielding seed that is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree with seed in its fruit; you shall have them for food.” —Genesis 1:29

Hands-on Hunger Prevention at Saint John’s: The Cathedral Co-Operative of Gardeners (CCG) The Cathedral Co-operative of Gardeners (CCG) supports our partner agency Metro CareRing by providing parishionergrown produce for the hungry. The need for fresh, nutritious fruits and vegetables is great, and we can help those most in need out of our abundant co-operative of backyard gardens.

Metro CareRing targets the root causes of hunger by providing effective emergency and wraparound services to its guests in addition to offering a fresh-food market on site.

It’s easy to give: Come to church each Sunday with your washed, garden-grown produce (including fruit from your trees and berries and grapes from your vines) and drop it off in the CCG collection coolers in the Children’s Garth. CCG volunteers do the rest by delivering your produce to Metro CareRing. We keep a running tally of produce donations and report monthly totals. We also partner with Yard Harvest for parishioners who would prefer for volunteers to harvest (and donate) the fruit from their vines and trees to our neighbors in need.

For more information about the Cathedral Co-Operative of Gardeners and for further information about food donation for Colorado gardeners, please visit sjcathedral.org/ServingInTheCommunity.

Sunday Christian Formation, beginning September 15

9:00 am- Children’s Chapel (ages 3 & up) St. Francis Chapel, 2nd floor Children’s Chapel is a time for children to be welcomed and engaged in this first part of worship in very ‘kid-friendly’ fashion that includes a lesson with activity, confession, prayers, hymns, and songs. When you visit us, please sign in and make a nametag for each child. (Chapel goers come to the Cathedral at the Peace, in time for Communion.)

10:15 am- Godly Play (Ages 3 - 3rd Grade) In Godly Play, we create a safe and beautiful place for children, where their ideas, opinions, and gifts are deeply respected.

Children will be greeted at the door and invited to join the circle, where they will see, hear and wonder about one of the stories from the Bible or another part of our Episcopal tradition. We tell the stories and parables of the Bible using handson materials, then use “wondering questions” to reflect on the story together. Children then choose from a wide variety of materials—art supplies, building materials, books, or the hands-on story materials themselves—to make their own creative responses, and to help make the stories truly their own. Prayers and a feast (snack) round out the session. Parents are asked to sign up to bring the snack one Sunday.

2nd-3rd Grades: Godly Play for Older Kids, Room 107

10:15 am - SOWhAT (4th - 5th Grade) Room 204 SOWhAT stands for: Stories, Outreach, Wonder, Arts & Theology. The core of our faith is to be found in our stories, and our children are writing these stories on their hearts in their years of Godly Play, as a means to make connections, find comfort, and figure out answers to life’s problems—as the guides that help them to be the followers of Jesus. As they mature and can retrieve the stories from memory, they can also begin to delve more deeply into their meaning, and to learn ways to respond that are more sophisticated. This is exactly why we created the SOWhAT class! This year, SOWhAT will work with the creation story, delving into the mystery and meaning contained in each of the “days.” From creating pinhole viewers to a meditation on thirst, from experimenting with the art of Andy Goldsworthy to exploring the stars, this class will deeply engage in wondering, finding meaning, and reaching out to people in need.

Wednesdays, beginning September 11

4:15 – 5:30 pm- Godly Play, Room 103 If you missed Sunday’s class, or if your child is in the children’s choir and you would like to come on Wednesdays for Christian formation, this time slot is perfect for you! Director of Religious Education, Kim McPherson, will share stories, wonder with the children and invite them to respond to the stories of our tradition through play, art, and other experiences.

(Younger children may stay in the nursery, and older children attending choir may be signed in to the nursery in advance by parents who wish to attend yoga classes from 5:30 - 6:45 pm. Choir members will be escorted to rehearsal following class.)

Note to Parents:

Check the Family Life Newsletter for youth events and to sign up for them. We must have a signed release form in order for your child to attend any events that are either away from the Cathedral or an overnight. You can mail them back to the cathedral, fax them (303-831-7119) or scan and send them back via email to kim@sjcathedral.org. Please download the forms at sjcathedral.org (children and youth tab).

The goal of our youth program is to help our teens journey into adulthood to become the best possible people they can be. Our hope is to give them a love for the Episcopal Church, a relationship with God through Christ, and opportunities to experience this community in loving service to others. “Belonging” is what we hope they will experience here, belonging as “a circle that embraces everything…{it} is deep…It is the living and passionate presence of the soul.” (from Eternal Echoes by John O’Donohue.)

Sundays

10:15 am, Room 300 This is a community based on trust, faith, love, generosity, and courage; one where deep friendships are being formed.

After the 9:00 am service, all youth gather in room 300 for refreshments and consideration of a topic, sometimes separating into middle and high school groups (in rooms 208 & 209) for deeper conversation relevant to their age group.

We encourage questions and conversation in a trusting atmosphere, and the year will be a wonderful mix of Scripture, spiritual practice, service, fun, and community building activities. We are looking forward to a program of mission trips in 2014, to broaden their experience and help them to become the people who will follow in the footsteps of Jesus to make this world a better place for all.

Fall Choir Season The fall choir season has begun! All choir information for our children, youth, and adult choirs is available online at sjcathedral.org/Music. Here, you will find information about our Choir School, including rehearsal days and times. As always, please feel free to call the Music Office at 303.577.7717 for more information.

Youth Choirs start up again!

Saint Cecilia, Saint Nicolas, and Probationer Choirs will begin rehearsals again on Wednesday, August 21. Holders of dark blue ribbons or higher will join the Cathedral (Adult) Choir rehearsals on Thursdays from 7:00 to 8:15 pm starting on Thursday, August 22 at the invitation of the Director. Saint David Choir rehearsals begin on Wednesday, September 11.

Saint John’s Parish and Cathedral Choirs The Adult Choir is divided into two distinct groups, the Parish Choir and the Cathedral Choir. Both are semi-professional ensembles for adults and advanced youth, and both are auditioned.

The Parish Choir is for everyone who likes to sing! It is perfect for families (Youth members have separate rehearsals) and singers who are less experienced or unsure of their abilities. The rehearsal time is less – Thursday evenings usually from 6:45 to 8:30 pm throughout the academic year – and this choir provides music for the 9:00 am Sunday Eucharist only. All volunteers start out in the Parish Choir and begin by helping the Choir lead hymns and service music; based on individual ability, newcomers sing more complex material as familiarity with the repertoire and sight reading skills allow, and some move to the Cathedral Choir by mutual agreement with the Director.

Many members of the Cathedral Choir sing at the 9:00 am service also, but the Cathedral Choir alone provides music for the 11:15 am Eucharist, Evensongs, and other special occasions throughout the year. The Cathedral Choir rehearses on Thursday evenings from 7:00 to 9:30 pm. Rehearsal on Sundays is at 8:25 am for the 9:00 am Eucharist and at 10:15 am for the 11:15 am Eucharist.

Both these choirs are part of the Diocesan Choir, which provides music for occasional Diocesan services. They are both closed (with rare exceptions) to new members from the Feast of All Saints (November 1) through the Feast of the Epiphany (January 6), and from Candlemas (February 2) until after Easter.

If you have experience singing in choirs, can read music, and are willing to commit to the choir schedule, please consider joining one of these groups. As any experienced choral singer knows, our work together is incredibly rewarding. Please contact Organist and Director of Music Stephen Tappe at 303.577.7726 or tappe@sjcathedral.org.

The Saint Cecilia Guild is a volunteer group of members and friends of Saint John’s Cathedral who give time, talent, and treasure to support and enhance Saint John’s music program in a variety of ways – from serving as concert ushers, to maintaining the music library, to assisting with administrative tasks. These contributions help significantly in making it possible for our musicians, as well as visiting concert artists, to offer music of the highest quality. At this luncheon, we will honor those who already serve and welcome those who would like to learn more about the various volunteer opportunities within the Music Department. We hope you will join us this year in making our music program even greater! Please let us know you’re coming by signing up in the Welcome Center.

Also featured are Mass for Double Choir by Terry Schlenker (written for SMCC’s tenth anniversary) and Cecil Effinger’s Four Pastorales for solo oboe and choir.

Dean attends Enthronement of Armenian Patriarch of Jerusalem On June 4, the Dean of Saint John’s Cathedral, Denver, who is a member of the Standing Commission on Ecumenical and Inter-Religious Relations of The Episcopal Church, attended the enthronement of the new Armenian Patriarch of Jerusalem.

“I have always been warmly welcomed at the Armenian Patriarchate, and have a number of friends among the priests in the Brotherhood and among the Armenian faithful in that community,” Eaton said, “so I was delighted to be able to be at the Enthronement. The Christian community in the Holy Land faces pressures of several kinds, and on these occasions we can express our support of each other.”

The new Armenian Patriarch, Archbishop Nourhan Manougian, was elected by the Brotherhood of Saint James last January, and is the 97th incumbent in a succession that dates back to the 7th century. Manougian had previously held the second most senior position in the hierarchy of the Patriarchate as Grand Sacristan, and he succeeds the late Patriarch Tarkom Manoogian, who died in October 2012. The Patriarch, who is 64, is elected for life.

“The Patriarch speaks warmly of the relations between the Armenian Church and The Episcopal Church,” remarked Eaton, “and his English is excellent.” Eaton got to know the new Patriarch on a previous visit to Jerusalem, and was delighted to receive a personal invitation to attend the Enthronement.

Changes in Leadership of Two Important Ministries The Dean is pleased to announce that he has appointed David Rote to succeed Janet Thompson as chair of the Arts and Architecture Commission. David assumes his new duties immediately. Janet has served as chair for several years, during which time a number of important and visible projects have been successfully completed, from the restoration of the Rood Screen, to the Stations of the Cross, to the Wellspring Center, to several others. Janet will remain on the commission, and she hands over a ministry in good heart and strength, with splendid plans for further projects.

The Dean has also appointed Kaye Kotzelnick to succeed Brad Case as the Dean’s Verger, and he has appointed David Barr to the position of Deputy Dean’s Verger. Brad has served three years in the position of Dean’s Verger, and hands over to Kaye a crucial role in our worship life. The precise responsibilities that Kaye and David will exercise have yet to be outlined, but they will assist the Dean and the Curate in the oversight of much of our liturgical ministries.

We shall thank Janet and Brad formally for their service, and bless David, Kaye and David in their new responsibilities, on Saint John’s Day in September.
