One of the ways I refresh and renew is to take time to search out and remember what may have been recent, small, bright moments that poke through days that otherwise are “cloudy.” There are those days from time to time when I feel like the little boy in the Peanuts comic strip who walks around with a messy little cloud hovering over his head, following him around everywhere he goes. Maybe some of you out there know what I mean. And so I take a little time out and try to find the bright moments that can offer a “Swiss cheese” effect on my personal cloud. Bit by bit the good memories poke holes in that little cloud and dissipate its shadow over me. Here are some recent examples in my life in these small country parishes:

Rector's Days Off in October: Mondays, Oct. 7th-8th, 21st, & 28th Tuesdays, Oct. 1st & 15th
Office Hours at Trinity Thursdays, Oct. 3rd, 24th (10:30 am - 1:00 pm) Wednesdays, Oct. 9th, 16th (9:30 am - 12:30 p.m.)
Rector's General Schedule Clergy are granted one day off per week. In recent years I have not been diligent about establishing and doing this. Serving as Rector of two churches it is important that I schedule such times and honor them. As many clergy do I will be taking Monday's off each week with the exception of the one Monday a month when the SMWC vestry meeting is held. On that week I will take off Tuesday. My "day off" schedule will be listed in each month's Good News and will be posted on my office door. Also, as rector of two churches and although the official parish office for both is located at SMWC, I have decided to schedule office hours once a week at Trinity in my Rector's Study there so that I will be more accessible to Trinity parishioners. These office hours will typically fall on two Wednesday mornings and two Thursday mornings each month. The dates for each month will be listed in the monthly Good News and also on the door of my study at Trinity. I hope that all of you at Trinity will feel welcome to drop by for a visit from time to time or schedule a specific time for a visit. If you would like to schedule a visit, it does not have to be only on a date or at a time I am at Trinity. I am also available other days at SMWC or can schedule to meet with you at Trinity on a day other than the regular office days/times listed for Trinity.
Did You Know? On October 28th

Intern’s Insight By: Bernie Schroeder
‘Scripture Then and Now’ On September 29, 2013, I preached about the readings of that day, Amos, 1Timothy and Luke. Each spoke about the Christian response to the wealthy, the poor and the hungry. We often hear that “money is the root of all evil.” What Paul actually said in his letter to Timothy is: “. . . the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil.” It’s OK to be rich. For the Christian, the issue is why do we pursue wealth and what we will do with that wealth if we achieve it? Scripture (then and now) gives us the answers. First, tithe. Give to God the first fruits of our labors. Second, notice and respond to the poor, the hungry and the sick. This is our Sacred Command the endowment of Christ’s hanging on the Cross. Recall Amos: “Therefore they shall now be the first to go into exile, and the revelry of the loungers shall pass away.”
PS: A great big THANK YOU to all who welcomed my wife, Carol, to our parishes. Carol really enjoyed the Northern Neck and was pleased with our humble cottage on the Stoneham Estate. She will be here for a longer stay in October and,
hopefully, every month thereafter.

Answer to Did You Know: Saint Simon was
one of Jesus' apostles. He was frequently referred to as Simon the Zealot - not because of his participation in the Zealot movement but because of his passion for keeping the Law of Moses. (Remember, there was another Simon whom Jesus renamed Peter.)
CONGRATULATIONS TO TRINITY’S
THOMAS HYDE
Thomas Hyde, son of Tris and Joanna Hyde and brother of Ellie, has been elected by our Region II Council to serve as Region II’s Youth Delegate to the Diocese of Virginia’s Annual Council to be held in January 2014. Thomas is a member of Trinity and has been active there working with the young people’s Sunday program. Thomas is a senior at Lancaster High School where he is in the top of his class and active in both sports and other activities there. His resume is broad, including serving as a docent at Historic Christ Church, working on Eagle Scout status with the Boy Scouts, camp counselor and instructor, a champion wrestler at LHS, etc., etc., etc. His resume is amazing and greatly impressed the delegates at the recent Region II council meeting when they voted unanimously to have him as our Youth Delegate. When you see him next, congratulate him. We are blessed to have him serve in this special role in our Diocese.
Region II Meeting on September 22nd
On Sunday, September 15th, Pauli Dillard and I
attended the Region II meeting as delegates from Trinity and St. Mary’s Whitechapel, respectively. We met at Abingdon Church in White Marsh, just south of Gloucester on Route 17. It is well worth a visit to this very old church that has been beautifully restored after its misuse during the Civil War. Its organ is magnificent and should be heard at one of the concerts given there. On October 20th Abingdon will be having an oyster roast, perhaps a good time to visit. The Very Rev. David May, rector of Grace Church in Kilmarnock, is also Dean of Region II. He reported that at the Clericus meeting held at Trinity earlier this month, the clergy of Region II discussed issues important to rural churches; a topic of great interest to our Bishops. They have been following the restoration of St. Mark’s Beasley, our joint effort with the Rappahannock Tribe and other churches. Youth groups from Region II have visited the Mattaponi reservation, feeling that it was a good learning experience on both sides and worth repeating. Rev. May also mentioned that Grace Church is hoping to have a late afternoon Celtic worship service one Sunday a month. Look for the notices. Two years ago, it was voted at Annual Council that each region in Virginia could elect a youth delegate to attend that meeting. We are pleased and excited that for the 2014 Council, Thomas Hyde from Trinity has been chosen for this honor. Thomas is a fine young man with many attributes to qualify him as a delegate. Congratulations Thomas! Looking ahead: Kingston Parish is have a tag sale where they will be serving Brunswick stew and a BBQ on October 19th.

Yard Sale Thanks
The Outreach Committee of SMWC extends thanks and gratitude to the good people of SMWC and Trinity for all they did to make our Sept 7th Yard Sale such a big success. Whether you were a donor, a baker, a pricer, a mover, a seller, a cashier, a shopper (or all of the above), we couldn’t have done it without you. And what’s more, we had all the bags, boxes and news-papers we needed! Hearty thanks to everyone and know that through your efforts ($6,168.92) was raised to be put back into our community to support the many wonderful organizations that work so hard to make our world an even better place to live!
(You might be interested to know that leftover items were shared with the thrift shop at Corrotoman Baptist, the Methodist Men at Bethel/Emmanuel, the Animal Welfare League, Seconds and the Red Cross Yard Sale. A few items were placed with Rivah Antiques Consignment.)

Unsung Hero Sunday
October 27th
Trinity Church Taking Nominations for “Unsung Hero”
Trinity Episcopal Church in Lancaster Courthouse is taking nominations for the “Unsung Hero” Award. The award will be granted October 27, at 9:30 AM. The Little Church with the Big Heart annually gives the award to that member of the community who lives out the true spirit of Christmas giving all year long. Past recipients range from Earl Tomlin to Dr. Rocky Tingle, a healthcare provider who works tirelessly behind the scenes. In preaching about the award, Reverend Torrence Harman has said, “When an unsung hero walks and moves things feel a little better. These everyday folks generate a little light and stir up hope in those with whom they come into contact. They move in graceful ways in the life of a community. They are giving people – out of some deep sense that that’s their purpose in life.” Said Stan James a member of the Unsung Hero Committee said, “At Trinity we set up this award for that person in the community who exhibits the true spirit of Christmas giving every day of the year.” Please contact Stan James at 436-6519 or Albert Pollard at 761-0775 with your thoughts about possible nominees. Nominations must be submitted by October 11th.
Young people of all ages meet every Sunday at 9:30 a.m.
Because many of you gave …and bought..…used jewelry, we have raised about $500 for Notre Dame Episcopal School in Port-au-Prince, Haiti.
Thanks to Elisa Barton, Jane Dunaway, Carli Hanback, Ellie Hyde who fought through customers to be at the opening of the yard sale on 9-10! Some of Carli’s friends helped later, as did Sarah Wells Pollard. Most items sold for between $2 and $5!
We all saw shoppers stop and look at the photo display of kids at the school and some added a donation after they read our money was all going to the Bishop of Haiti. Another contribution has been received for $365. (1 student’s tuition/year)
There are more, never before seen, items, and some jewelry which is not costume.
[Look for this for sale at the Ham and Oyster Dinner on Saturday, October 12th.......if someone can be there to sell it. Who can volunteer?]
In March of 2008, Torrence and I met to see if I could fit into the goals she had for young people at Trinity: [These are highlights from my notes.]
1. Plan an every Sunday year-round experience for young people of all ages using Godly Play as a basis. 2. Parents need to be able to worship. 3. Develop deeper spirituality, mission with the Diocese and hospitality. I agreed to be the Director because Trinity honors the spiritual development of young people and has funded that over the years! This “family-size” church can do intergenerational things and the energy is holy…… and the world mission stuns us.
We still need to provide guidance for ongoing development of faith in an Episcopal Church.
Come find out what we do on Sunday mornings and ask questions on Sunday October 13th.
Thanks for all your wonderful participation over these years.
May God continue to make our hearts generous.
