ANTIOCH

By the Very Rev. Sam Candler, Dean of the Cathedral

In October of 2002, a year after 9/11, I set out with about 45 other pilgrims on a unique trip. We were the first group of “World Pilgrims” from Atlanta, consisting of 15 Christians, 15 Jews, and 15 Muslims. About half of us were white, and about half of us were people of color. The idea was that we would visit the holy places of each others’ traditions. Each night, our hotel roommate would be someone from a different religion. On each long bus ride, our seatmate would be someone from a different religion. With the energy and enthusiasm of our organizer, Wayne Smith, it was a memorable pilgrimage, and the first of many. That first pilgrimage was to Turkey. After changing planes in Istanbul, we flew to Adana. From there, we took our first bus trip to a town called Antakya, our first site.

Do you know where the followers of Jesus were first called “Christians?” It is one of the most frequent questions on popular Bible quizzes. The answer is “Antioch.” According to the Book of Acts, 11:26, the disciples were first called Christians in Antioch. After Barnabas retrieved Saul (Paul) from Tarsus, Barnabas took Paul to Antioch, and the community of Christians grew. Along the coast of the Mediterranean Sea, Antioch was in that region of what is now the southeastern tip of Turkey, next to Syria and above Lebanon. It was from Antioch that Paul systematically began all three of his famous missionary journeys. Later, Antioch would become one of the five great centers of Christianity, the pentarchy that included Rome, Constantinople. Alexandria, and Jerusalem. The great early Church patriarch, Saint John Chrysostom, was from Antioch.

But, Antioch is now called Antakya. As World Pilgrims, our first inter-religious stop was at Antakya, a mostly Muslim community in the province of Hatay which has historically enjoyed generous relationships with the Christians there and the few Jews. The city was our introduction to inter-religious pilgrimage, and I will never forget it.

Thus, a few weeks ago, I was crushed to realize that Antakya was among the cities most devastated by the earthquake of February 6, 2023. Last week, Jared Malsin and Elvan Kivilcim wrote a beautiful, if tragic, description of Antakya and its destruction in an article in The Wall Street Journal of March 3, 2023. I highly recommend the piece, titled, “Ancient Antioch Survived Many Disasters in its 24,000 Years – Then Turkey’s Earthquake Obliterated It.” Here is some of what they wrote:

The near-total destruction of Antakya is a devastating blow for Turkey and the wider Middle East. Home to Turkish Muslims, Christians and Jews, the city sustained an Old World multiculturalism and sense of interreligious solidarity that has faded elsewhere during a century of nationalist rule in modern Turkey and decades of colonial war and sectarian militancy across the Middle East.

Even before the 2011 uprising and civil war in Syria that pushed more than three million refugees to settle in Turkey, many residents of Hatay province spoke both Turkish and Arabic, unique in a country where President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and many other elites are proudly monolingual.

“We grew up all in the same streets. Nobody said this is Christian, this is Muslim, this is Alewite, this is Sunni,” said Cemil Baklaci, a 32-year-old engineer from Antakya, who is Arab and a member of the Alevi branch of Islam. “If I had been born in the next house over, I’d be Christian,” he said, walking amid the ruined home of Antakya’s old city last week.

With those writers, I lament the devastation. I am sad that 69-year-old Josef Naseh, a Syrian Christian archaeologist mentioned in the article, has had to leave Antakya with these words: “The real devastation this earthquake created is in our minds. …We need new people who can carry on the mythology, the faith, the culture in this land. …We need people who will not erase all that.”

Indeed, the world needs those kinds of people. May God be with the people of Antakya. Disasters happen. Earthquakes happen. Hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, fires. I pray for the World Pilgrims among us, all over the world, who find the courage and strength to live on, and to build again communities of good faith. Wherever we are, and no matter what has befallen us, we can still seek good faith and the common good. God is surely with us in those endeavors.

WEDNESDAY EVENINGS IN LENT

Join us on Wednesday evenings during Lent for a light supper and program offerings for all. We’ll start in Child Hall with dinner at 5:30 p.m., and break into smaller groups for programming from 6–7 p.m. Godly Play, for children through 5th grade, and childcare for children 3 and under will be available. Meals must be ordered in advance. Register for dinner at cathedralATL.org/LentenDinner. Please note that all of the study books are available at cathedralbookstore.org.

CHOOSE FROM ONE OF THE FOLLOWING PROGRAMS:

Book Study with Canon Julia Mitchener, Cathedral Book Store

Join us for a five-week study of Stephanie Land’s acclaimed book Maid: Hard Work, Low Pay, and a Mother’s Will to Survive. Ms. Land’s story is compelling and highly narrative, chronicling her struggle to provide a stable life for herself and her young daughter after fleeing domestic abuse. While we will discuss ways in which we might better help people who are unhoused in our own community, the main focus of the class will be to gain better understanding of the housing crisis and the societal dynamics that contribute to it. Please contact Canon Julia Mitchener, julia.mitchener@ cathedralATL.org, for more information.

“The Chosen” with the Rev. Dr. Thee Smith, Gould Room

*Please note this class begins at 5 p.m. with a 6 p.m. option to arrive and join the discussion followed by video clip highlights. “The Chosen!” It’s arguably the greatest breakthrough in Christian film media so far this century. Join a core group of Cathedral-goers as we gather together on Wednesday evenings in Lent for a free film screening and follow-up discussion co-moderated by the Rev. Dr. Thee Smith.

Book Study with Canon Lauren Holder, Conference Room 239

Parishioner Sara Blackwood and Canon Lauren Holder are facilitating a weekly conversation using the book Good Inside: A Guide To Becoming the Parent You Want To Be by Dr. Becky Kennedy. While the book is geared towards parenting, it is truly a book about relationships, and this conversation is open to all. Alongside the book, we will explore the baptismal covenant, what it means to be created in the image of God, the prayer of St. Francis of Assisi, and how we can support one another in our walk with Christ. Your presence will bless our conversation—no reading necessary!

Book Study with Adam Mathes, Chapter Room (319) Regarded by some as the second most influential book in the western world (behind only the Bible), St. Augustine’s Confessions profoundly shaped the Christian faith and the ways in which Western minds regard themselves, their primary relationships, and their pursuit of the good. This reading group will move quickly through Confessions and gather to discuss key elements to aid in understanding and to enrich the faith of participants.

Buckhead Heritage Society

Speaker Series: Martha Tate

Thursday, March 23, 7 p.m.

Gould Room

Come hear why Buckhead resident Martha Tate – longtime garden columnist for the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, co-creator and producer of the HGTV series A Gardener’s Diary, and former editor of Peachtree Papers, magazine of the Junior League of Atlanta–spent four years pursuing the truth about a 50-year-old society murder that rocked the wealthy enclave of Nashville’s Belle Meade and held the entire city spellbound for two years. This best-selling, truecrime story took place in racially-charged Nashville, just weeks after the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., but its universal themes of greed and deceit are universal. The story could have taken place anywhere. Register at buckheadheritage.com/events.

COMMUNITY

ALL GOD’S CHILDREN: A CONVERSATION ON BEING CHRISTIAN AND LGBTQ+

Sunday, March 26, 5:30 p.m., Gould Room

Join Cathedral parishioner Hubert Tate as he engages in a conversation with fellow parishioners Del King and Victor Moldovan, the first LGBTQ+ couple married at the Cathedral of St. Philip, after the Supreme Court of the United States struck down the ban on marriage in 2015. Though the Cathedral had blessed same-sex marriages prior to 2015, the union between King and Moldovan was the first formal ceremony that legally recognized the marriage.

The event will be held at 5:30 p.m. in the Gould Room on Sunday, March 26. Come and enjoy this intriguing conversation with small bites and wine. RSVP to cathedralATL.org/ AllGodsChildren. A voluntary donation of any commitment is asked to support the Cathedral’s Ricks Wheeler fund, which is a ministry to support programs and activities to persons living with HIV/AIDS.

SIGN UP TO JOIN A FOYERS GROUP

Foyers offers small group dinner opportunities throughout the year. Members of each group take turns hosting—some providing the space, others providing the food, all providing meaningful fellowship. This is a great way to get to know a handful of people without feeling overwhelmed. Groups are intentionally intergenerational and eclectic. The Super Foyers dinner – where all groups convene to kick off the year – will be Sunday, April 23 at 6 p.m. in Child Hall. To sign up for a Foyers group, contact Danny and Jennifer DuBose at jdubose@ goddard-group.com by Tuesday, April 4.

STEWARDSHIP

FEBRUARY STEWARDSHIP UPDATE

Pledges through 2/28/2023:

Amount: $2,704,846

Number of households: 571

Thank you, as always, for your responsiveness to the 2023 Stewardship Campaign! We are still finalizing the numbers, but it looks like we are roughly $500,000 ahead of where we were at the end of February last year and added 100+ pledges in the month. We have reached more than $2,700,000 in pledges and we will need to maintain this momentum in order to reach our Wildly Important Goal of $4,050,000 in pledges for the year. To-date, the members of the Stewardship Committee have solicited 20+ small groups, launched a Children’s Stewardship Campaign, written over 200 thank you letters, and staffed the Atrium table on Sunday mornings. In order to stay on track (increasing rate and amount of pledging), we will need support from as many households as possible. If you have not already pledged, please go to cathedralATL.org/pledge. Thank you!
