2013 ANNUAL REPORT

The Rev. Dr. Agnes W. NorfleetPastor/Head of Staff
People of faith are people of vision. It is as simple as that. From the moment Abraham and Sarah were called to get up and go to a place that God would show them, God’s people have journeyed toward a vision. We are both heirs of their ancient blessing and instruments of it as we continue to pass along the good news of God’s love for the world. The Bible records how God’s blessing was picked up and passed on through the descendents of Abraham and Sarah, through the glorious visions of the prophets forecasting a world at peace offering abundant life for all people, and through the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Looking back at God’s saving acts in the past, we are poised to look forward toward a vision of all creation living in harmony and security, according to the purposes and promises of God.
This Annual Report is a snapshot of our living toward that vision. One year in the life of Bryn Mawr Presbyterian Church is but a small window into a longer, deeper commitment of this congregation’s Christian witness. Flip through these pages and you will see many ways in which we have nurtured a sense of Christian family among us, and furthered the church’s work in the community and the world. There is much to celebrate about the past year, not the least of which is the depth and breadth of Christian faithfulness that has given way to the highlights included in this report. Hopefully, you will find hints of your own participation recorded here as evidence of your time, talent and financial commitment.
This Annual Report can also be useful as we look forward by inspiring future involvement. Reading these pages, someone’s interest might be piqued to consider a new engagement by joining a new group or ministry initiative or class or outreach opportunity. What would you like to do, or commit to, or learn from, or undertake as an expression of your Christian faith through the ministry of this church? Between what is written across these pages, and the accompanying pictures, is a subtext that invites you to envision where God may be leading you in this new year of being a vital part of this vibrant congregation. Thanks for helping us realize the vision of Bryn Mawr Presbyterian Church!
Grace and Peace,

This was a joyous year in the life of BMPC: one of reconnection, recommitment to our vision, and the start of reimagining the promise and possibilities of our church for all generations now and yet to come.
Early spring brought with it the long-awaited installation of the Rev. Dr. Agnes Norfleet, our new Pastor/Head of Staff. The excitement and buzz about Agnes and her arrival has reenergized the congregation, and we are very glad to have Agnes and her family in our midst.
We met stewardship goals for 2013 and began the year on sound financial footing. This achievement is a sure indicator of the congregation’s commitment to the church and its mission. Our financial strength allows us to not only manage essential obligations, but also provide more adequate support for work so very important to all of us here, whether education, mission, outreach, music, fine arts, or other areas that touch the lives of people everywhere.
BMPC was honored to be the first faith community ever recognized with Habitat for Humanity Philadelphia’s Good Neighbor Award for “being a partner, putting faith into action outside the four walls of their church, and empowering the lives of hundreds of families in West Philadelphia in the process.”
Indeed, we care deeply about our impact outside the church. In May, we held a “Jazz Fest for Peace” to support Heeding God’s Call, a multi-faith movement to prevent gun violence. As jazz luminaries entertained, the “Memorial to the Lost” t-shirt memorial made a striking statement on the front lawn, remembering 288 people killed by illegal gun violence in Philadelphia in 2012. We raised more than $25,000 for the cause.
As we start 2014, we look foward to raising our new spire, replacing the damaged one removed in summer 2013. We also press ahead on the Session Priorities set forth in 2013, including aims to increase “portals” (entry points) into the church, improve efficiency of ministry structures, enhance ministries to children and youth, and expand our base of lay volunteers.
BMPC has touched thousands of lives in our own church and far beyond with work that demonstrates God’s boundless love for all people. Under Dr. Norfleet’s leadership, our dedication to this church and our momentum toward realizing our vision has never been stronger.

GLORIFYING GODREALIZING THE VISION:
“…Iwillsinghymnstoyourname.”Romans15:9
We come together as a community of faith to worship, when we put worldly thoughts aside to focus on glorifying God. Through the beautiful voices of our choirs, the music of our organ, the inspiration of our sermons and the words of Scripture and our prayers, we find sustenance to carry us through the rest of the week.
But Sunday morning worship at 8:00 and 10:00 a.m. is just the beginning. Everything we do all week long is a response to the abundant life made known to us in Christ. Together as the church, yet distinctively as individuals, we are moved to offer ourselves and our gifts with praise and gratitude.
This year, we saw our beloved Sanctuary and bell tower enveloped in scaffolding for restoration work. After standing tall in our community since 1927, our 35-foot spire had deteriorated beyond repair, and it was removed pending replacement. The stones, windows, and louvers of the bell tower received a significant makeover as well, with the end result of better sound ringing out from our carillon.
Funds from the Capital Campaign and the Bryn Mawr Presbyterian Church Foundation have reduced the cost that the church bears for this project.

GROWING IN FAITHREALIZING THE VISION:

“…Fortruly,Itellyou,ifyouhavefaiththesizeofamustardseed,youwillsaytothismountain,‘movefromheretothere’anditwillmove;andnothingwillbeimpossibleforyou.”(Matthew17:20)
Our lifelong journey of Christian faith and education is fed and nurtured in many ways at BMPC. Some of the ways congregants learned about our faith and made it even stronger in 2013 were through Bible study, Adult Education and Middleton Center offerings, and sermons.
In June, we welcomed the Rev. Dr. Nicole Duran as Supply Pastor for Adult Education, Worldwide Ministries and Outreach. Her spiritual leadership, along with the Rev. Dr. Norfleet’s dedication to creating a community focused on life-long Christian education, brought new programs for adults to the congregation, including fall classes focused on “Pursuing Peace in Worlds of War.” Though each of our classes had its own unique subject matter, all of our Adult Education offerings helped us to better understand our Christian tradition, the perspective of others, and our contemporary world.
Bible study offered a way to deepen our understanding of God’s Word through group discussion and pastor-led instruction. Our Women’s Coffee Cup Bible Study, led by the Rev. Jacqui Van Vliet, considered books by Henri Nouwen, Nicole Duran, and Enuma Okoro, while our Senior Men’s Discussion Group, led by the Rev. Dr. R. Charles Grant, discussed letters written by Dietrich Bonhoeffer. New offerings included a Wednesday evening Advent study and a Sunday morning Couples’ Bible Study.
The Middleton Center—a specialized ministry of Bryn Mawr Presbyterian Church—also provided opportunities to explore, question and grow through counseling services, support groups, monthly labyrinth walks, and spiritual direction. In 2013, several programs were offered to help participants deepen their awareness of God, and Lauren Artress, a leading force in popularizing the spiritual practice of the labyrinth, taught several workshops.
Growing in faith also meant being still and listening to the Word of God through the voices of our pastors, who have a strong presence in the pulpit and feed our souls with thoughtful reflection on the scriptures. Most notably, our Pastor, the Rev. Dr. Agnes Norfleet, delivered inspirational and moving messages that touched the heart while helping us to better understand God and the teachings of Jesus Christ. Agnes’ sermons, nationally recognized throughout our denomination, contained wisdom, humor, and a powerful message of hope and love to inspire us as a community of faith.

“ThesecommandmentsthatIgiveyou,impressthemonyourchildren.Talkaboutthemwhenyousitathomeandwhenyouwalkalongtheroad,whenyouliedownandwhenyougetup.”(Deuteronomy6:6-7)
Children and youth play a vital role in our church, and we value their presence in our community of faith. Our ministry helps them grow in faith and knowGod, not just knowaboutGod. At baptism, we promise to guide and nurture them through word and deed. As they grow, we offer education, support and encouragement to build foundations for lifelong journeys in Christian faith.
Sunday School programs for ages 2-grade 12 brought our entire campus to life on Sunday mornings. Our children studied age-appropriate lessons following the liturgical calendar, and our youth enjoyed worship and music at their “Opening Gathering” in the Gym before departing for their classrooms to discuss the themes of “Happy” (based on the Beatitudes) and “Identity” (who we are and why we are here).
In addition to Sunday School, a number of other activities were also offered for our children and youth to provide a social component “just for fun” and to incorporate our faith’s beliefs with our families’ enjoyment. During the program year (September-May), activities for children ranged from a World Food Day event, Family Fun Friday Movie and Pizza Nights, an Advent Craft Workshop, and Christmas Caroling at Rosemont Presbyterian Village, while our youth had fun at a trip to SkyZone (indoor trampoline park), a ski trip, a Super Bowl Party, and at a Philadelphia 76ers basketball game.
Summer camps also provided opportunities for our children and youth to grow closer to God. During Vacation Bible Camp 2013, “God’s Backyard Bible Camp: Serving Jesus in our own Backyard,” 89 campers aged 3 to grade 5 had fun while participating in hands-on activities and learning how to be of service in their local communities. Summer programs for youth included learning about and serving others through mission trips to Costa Rica and Philadelphia, as well as sharing and growing in faith during a week at Camp Kirkwood in the Poconos.
Beyond enriching the lives of the younger members of our church family, BMPC also offered programs for children in our community through Young-in-Arts and our Weekday (Pre)School. The Young-in-Arts program remained dedicated to the education of young children and their families in the creative arts, while the Weekday School celebrated its 50th anniversary. Both programs have been a blessing for the children of this church and the larger community, and have been portals of entry into the life of this congregation for new families.

“…truly,Itellyou,justasyoudiditforthesewhoaretheleastofthemembersofmyfamily,youdiditforme.”(Matthew25:40)
We are blessed to have many opportunities to serve God and express our Christian faith by serving our neighbors—whether they live next door or across the continent. Feeding the hungry, giving blood, supporting children in need, giving shelter to the homeless, visiting the sick, working together to make a difference at Congregation-wide Days of Service, and welcoming guests were just a few of the ways we strived to fulfill God’s commandment to “love your neighbor as yourself.”
Many of us join in efforts to care for God’s creation and serve on behalf of others. Every task, regardless of how large or small, can make a difference. As we participate, we reap the benefits of feeling valued, meeting new people, and knowing that we have contributed to making the world a better place.

“Forwheretwoorthreearegatheredinmyname,Iamthereamongthem.”(Matthew18:20)
We are a strong community of faith. All are welcome to join us here as we grow in faith and compassion for the world and affirm the inclusive love of God made known in Jesus Christ. Because inter-generational fellowship is an important part of our ministry together, our members were invited to take part in new activities in 2013 that strengthened our ties to this church and to each other. Some examples of our shared activities:
• For the first time, a BMPC “Blessing of the Animals” took place to express our love and care for all God’s creatures and recognize our pets as “members” of our church family. The Rev. Dr. R. Charles Grant (dressed as St. Francis) led a service of blessing on the front lawn for 40 animals, including two horses, a turtle, and a hedgehog.
• Wednesday Night Dinners returned so that people of all ages could share fellowship, a delicious meal, and conversation. Our new preferred chef, Ruth Johnson, prepared family-friendly buffets from fresh ingredients for an average crowd of 60 appreciative diners.
• As in previous years, our Deacons’ flower ministry extended the prayers and concern of our congregation through visits and bouquets. Although the flowers were appreciated, what mattered most was the Deacons’ role in personally sharing the church’s care through their visits.
• Coffee hour after 10:00 a.m. worship gave us an opportunity to enjoy fellowship, fair-trade coffee and other refreshments. In warmer weather, we drank “Lemonade on the Lawn” next to scaffolding and construction fences as our bell tower was repaired.
• “Common Ground” volunteers celebrated the flowers, trees, plants, and soil of God’s good earth by working to beautify our campus. In 2013, they improved the beds by the Radnor Street parking lot by spreading compost (ten cubic yards!) and installing and maintaining new native plants.
• At our Rally Day in September, hundreds of congregants poured out onto the front lawn after worship to celebrate the kick-off of a new program year. We enjoyed live music, picnic-style food, face painting, and a juggler’s performance in a festive atmosphere while catching up with each other and learning about all BMPC would offer in the coming months.
