More members. More kids. More families. Moreyoung adults. These are typical answers from St. Francis
members when asked the question, What do we wantmost, whats a priority for us in 2010? We want ourchurch to grow. Were just not sure how to accomplish it.
We no longer live in a society that knows the stories of the Bible or thegood news of Jesus Christ. Only 7% of Americans attend mainline denomina-tional churches. Over 25% of Americans under the age of 30, have no back-ground in any organized religion. We cannot expect people to come through ourdoors just because we open them widely.
Beginning April 11, we will undertake a 6-week journey together as acongregation, using a curriculum called Unbinding Your Heart. We will read,pray, and discuss this book during our Adult forum time, from 11:30 a.m. to
12:15 p.m. on Sundays.Will Unbinding Your Heart provide us sure-fire tricks for rapid church
growth? No. What this process will do is focus us on sharing our faith.Churches grow because people who love God share their faith with other people.We who know that our lives are enriched beyond measure because of Gods loveshare that love with others. Our motivation is spreading the message of Godslove, not adding to the rolls of our church. We are fed each week with Christsbody. Shouldnt we be offering that food to the vast numbers around us who arespiritually hungry?
How will we grow?
By deepening our relationship with God, by strengthening our faith through
prayer and worship
By feeling comfortable with describing for other people the difference thatbeing a Christian makes in our lives
By making sure that St. Francis maintains a focus on growing our membersrelationship with Christ and by sharing that faith with others
Unbinding Your Heart will help us begin our journey, doing thesethings. Its sure to be an exciting ride. Im grateful that well have each other astraveling companions. I look forward to our shared adventure.

Sallys Calendar
In last months Chalice some of the odd items (MOCA, Chi Alpha) on Sallys calendarwere explained. Here are more explanation of the calendar, found on page 9 of this issue.
ERM Every other month Sally participates in a committee of the Diocese, Episcopal Re-
covery Ministries (ERM). This committee focuses on helping Episcopal clergy identify and ad-dress the effects of addiction. The committee strives to deepen understanding of addiction, andprovide resources for those suffering from addiction and substance abuse.
Spiritual advising Sally both has a spiritual advisor and is a spiritual advisor. Eachmonth Sally meets with her spiritual advisor to discuss her prayer life and spiritual practices. Of-ten Sally then undertakes a specific spiritual discipline for a season. Sally also provides this guid-ance to a fellow spiritual pilgrim.
Fresh Start This monthly, all-day meeting is a program offered by the Diocese to allclergy who are in new positions. Whether clergy people have been ordained for decades ormonths, any time they find themselves in a new church job they participate for 2 program years in
Fresh Start.
Name tags
Have you ever attended a gathering where everyone there seemed to know each other wellbut you didnt know anyone? Perhaps the people there were friendly and introduced themselves.You were told everyones nameand remembered no ones. Thats what its like for someonenew who walks into St. Francis. And thats why its so important that we wear our name tagsduring the service and throughout our fellowship and Adult Forum time.
If you need a name tag, just please complete the form in the lobby or let Sally know.Thank you for remembering to wear your name tag as an important sign of hospitality and wel-come.
Chairs
Visitors entering a worship space want to sit where theres an abundance of space aroundthem. They will probably choose an aisle seat, near the back. People who study church growthknow that newcomers are put off if they enter a worship space and it appears that there arentplenty of open chairs.
Thats why you may notice that were putting out lots of extra chairs each Sunday. Wewant visitors to have the sense that theres more than enough room and welcome for them.
So would you faithful St. Franciscans please consider sitting up front? (We realize thatthis is a big request.) That would leave the seats in the back open for the new folks. Who knows,you might actually like sitting closer to the choir and altar.
From Sally: Who to talk to?
Ive been asked to whom members should talk, if they have issues with me as their Vicar.I would hope that if I have annoyed, worried, or wounded you in any way you would feel com-fortable talking to me. If there is an issue that you feel you cannot address with me, the appropri-ate person to discuss it with is the Senior Warden, Barb Sacco.

With love, Jesus confronted those around him. We are called to do the same thing. We are allvery human beings, so we will surely at times disappoint, hurt, and confuse one another. Itsmy hope that we can discuss our failings and be reconciled. Conflict is not bad, its necessaryand normal. Conflict that is dealt with well can result in deeper and more trusting relationships.
ThanksgivingsYoure invited to come forward following the announcements on the 1st Sunday of the
month to tell the congregation what you are thankful for. Our red box for thanksgiving offer-ings is on the table in the aisle each week. You are always welcome to make donations in grati-tude for Gods blessings.
Each 1st Sunday we make a point to tell one another how we have been blessed, so thatwe may rejoice together.
Anointing
During worship, immediately following communion, on the 4th Sunday of each month
were offering prayers of healing with anointing of oil. Its a time for you to come forward sothat the priest and your fellow parishioners may lay their hands upon you to soothe your body,heart, mind.
You are the one being anointed -- the prayers are being offered on your behalf. If youwant prayers for someone else, let us add that name to our prayer list; we will pray for that per-son for at least 6 weeks. During the anointing we will not ask what the prayers are for; thatsbetween you and God. We offer our prayers in support of your healing.
Youth Group for St. Francis teens
St. Francis teens have been invited to join the Eureka United Methodist Church (UMC)youth group, known as MUCK. MUCK meets approximately once a month under the directionof Tim Schulte. MUCK combines fun, worship, and service; the youth are planning a missiontrip this summer.
The next MUCK meeting is Sunday, March 7 from 6-8 p.m. at Eureka UMC, CentralAve. and 3rd St.
Metro IV
All of the Episcopal congregations within the Diocese of Missouri are grouped into clus-ters (convocations) called Metros. St. Francis is a part of Metro IV, which met on Jan 30 toplan our meetings for 2010. Our Vicar Sally Weaver and our Diocesan Convention delegates,Cassie Eckhardt and Michael Booker, are invited to Metro IV meetings.
In addition to St. Francis, Metro IV includes St. Timothys Creve Coeur, St. Peters Ladue, Church of the Good Shepherd Town and Country, St. Lukes Manchester, St. Mar-tins Ellisville, Christ Church Rolla, St. John & St. James Sullivan, and Trinity St.James.

Sean Smith 3/18May God bless you on your birthday!
We would love to publish important dates for ALL members of the congregation
your birth date, anniversaries, and others of importance to you. BUT in order to
publish we need the facts! So that official parish records may be updated, you are
urged to pick up and complete the salmon-colored sheets that will be available in the
lobby at the Lodge on Sunday and return it to the Parish Office or just leave with the
Teller sheets for Maxine to pick up. Knowing who to serve and how best to serve our
members, requires data on who we are. Lets help the Vicar, Bishops Committee and
Committee Chairpersons in planning appropriate programs and activities by letting them
Taize March 25
What is Taize? Cryptically, its a worship service centering around music that is chant-like, us-ing simple phrases that are repeated over and over again. Taize worship uses repetition of music andwords as a means of deepening the participants spiritual experience.
We are offering a service of Taize at the parish house on Thursday, March 25 at 7 p.m. Comeenter into this simple, hypnotic practice of worship.
Holy Week services
Holy Week isnt as far off as you think. Here are the services of worship being offered duringthat week:
Palm Sunday March 28 10 a.m. Masonic Lodge
Maundy Thursday April 1 7 p.m. Masonic Lodge
Good Friday April 2 7 p.m. Parish House
Easter April 4 10 a.m. Masonic Lodge
What happened to our values?
In the past each Chalice listed values welcome, worship, common life, spiritual growth, ser-vice, creation and a list of that months activities relating to those values. You may have noticed thatthose have been missing since Sally became Vicar.
At the Feb 13 retreat, Sally presented to the Bishops Committee a framework for thinking aboutour individual and corporate lives called the Christian Life Model. This model encompasses all of thevalues previously reported onand adds a few. So, while the values checklist wont be appearing in
The Chalice as in the past, the values are still held in high esteem.
A description of the Christian Life Model and how the Bishops Committee used it will be thetopic of an Adult Forum (following Sunday worship) in March. And watch for more about the ChristianLife Model in the April Chalice.

Outreach Appreciation
Following is an excerpt from a letter received from Cleta Null from the 2009 Adopt-A-Family Christmas Pro-
gram.
On behalf of the entire community, I would like to sincerely thank you for your generous con-
tribution to our 2009 Adopt-A-Family Christmas Program.. You provided assistance to 652 families
with a total of over 2000 children, 120 senior citizens and nursing home patients. We gave out
approximately 60 bicycles to every child who asked for one. Not a single person who requested assis-
tance was turned away.
And she continues.
What started out as an idea and a small endeavor to be of assistance to those in need has cer-
tainly grown into more that I could have ever imagined this has been, as always, a labor of love
for myself and the other committee members; Debbie Kelley and Doris Petsch. We would like to thank
all the volunteers who make our workload lighter and we are looking forward to working with you again
next year.

People We Pray ForWeve changed the system for the Prayers of the People. Please tell Pastor Sally, e-mail
[email protected], or call the office (636-938-3733), to add a name to the prayer list.
We will keep a list and will pray for each person on the list for 6 Sundays in a row. After that time,
if you want us to continue to pray for the person, just let us know, and well keep the person on the list for 6additional Sundays. First names will be included in the Prayers of the People sheet for the Intercessor and full
names (if not requested otherwise) will be printed in the Announcements insert along with the Congregational
Rota and Birthdays & Anniversaries for that Sunday.
Information needed: We would like first and last name (unless you prefer first name only), and why
were praying. For example: for an illness, because the person has died, because they are being deployed to Iraq,
etc.
Please talk to Sally if you have any questions or concerns. This method should enable us to sustain our
prayers as a community, for the needs of those we care about. Those on our current list: Tom; John; Dan Me-
rideth; Edith; Stephen Bergmann, Karl Mikolka; Nick Sacco; Steve; Lily Louise Bethel; Robert Patterson; Renee
Boblette; Judy Cody.
In addition to the group of 12 or 13 members of the congregation on a rotating basis each week, we pray
also for various groups requested by the Diocese congregations/people/ministers in our companion Diocese of
Lui; our local Missouri Diocese; and the worldwide Anglican communion.
