October 2017

constant background “noise” of busy-ness, of the

next appointment, of the next goal, of the next

thing to “get through” before we can have some

sort of rest or holiday, when we collapse, too

exhausted to hear anything.

It’s a cycle of busyness/exhaustion that

numbs our ears and eyes to the voice of God in

our lives. Saint Francis saw, in every tiny bit of

creation - a sunset, a spider web, the eyes of a

needy child - the hand of God.

And he knew how to respond accordingly.

To relieve the suffering of the poor, to give

thanks for the beauty of the creation. But to do so

meant that he had to know how to listen well.

Martin Smith said it simply and well: “Silence

feeds the soul.”

Prayer is not just words that we say to God;

prayer is also placing ourselves in quiet and

peaceful places where we can hear, really hear,

God speaking through God’s creation.

Such prayer gives us the perspective to

make big decisions, to be able to “step back” and

see our lives and how a decision will affect “the

long run.” It helps feed, and nurture, and heal.

It’s very true. “Silence feeds the soul.” In our

busiest moments, our busiest seasons, that is

when we need it the most.

Father Dean Taylor

Dear friends in Christ,

Has something like this ever happened

to you? You’re out in your back yard,

perhaps, or on your patio or screen porch, or

even doing some backyard chores. The sun is

out, the weather fine, squirrels and birds play,

and nearby, your air conditioner unit runs

nearby, cooling your home inside.

But then, the air conditioning unit turns

off. And you suddenly realize that it is

quiet—really quiet. You thought, before, that

you were enjoying the outdoors, and in a

sense you were. But now, you really hear it

all, birds and crickets and dogs barking in the

distance. Now, you really hear it in a way

that you did not before.

Sometimes our spiritual life works like

that. We go through each day, and there is a

Events and Feast Days in October

Parish Luncheon October 1, 2017

Our regular First Sunday meal will be held after the 11:00am Eucharist on October 1, 2017. Those with last names beginning in A-H are asked to bring a main dish, I-R a side dish, and S-Z a dessert.

Blessing of the Animals October 1, 2017

4:00 pm At 4:00 pm on Sunday, October 1, 2017, we will have our annual Blessing of the Animals service. This is done in honor of the festival of Saint Francis who is widely acknowledged as the patron saint of animals. Our service will take place in the lower Church Garden, weather permitting, otherwise in

the Parish Hall. Everyone is invited to bring pets and other “significant animals” or crea-tures. Please encourage your friends and neigh-bors to join you for this special event. Actually, the ceremony should be described more properly as the blessing BY animals since we rejoice in the simplicity and beauty of God’s creatures and give thanks for the blessings and joy they bestow on us.

Church of Our Saviour AIDS Walk Team 2017

The Church of Our Saviour AIDS Walk team will walk together Sunday, October 22, 2017. You can join the team or donate at http://events.aidatlanta.org/goto/churchofoursaviour. Church of Our Saviour AIDS Walk Team can also be found on Facebook. AIDS Walk Atlanta & 5K Run is the Southeast’s largest community fundraiser and awareness event for HIV/AIDS, benefiting AID Atlanta and seven other participating organizations. Over its history, more than 300,000 people have participated in AWA5K, raising $40M for HIV/AIDS prevention and care, saving countless lives and improving the well-being of thousands still living with HIV/AIDS today. This year, we expect thousands of people to join us. AIDS Walk Atlanta & 5K Run continues until the epidemic ends.

At the end of October, the lectionary includes

the familiar story of a lawyer asking Jesus a ques-

tion to test him: “‘Teacher, which is the great com-

mandment in the law?’ And he said to him, ‘You

shall love the Lord your God with all your heart,

and with all your soul, and with all your mind. This

is the great and first commandment. And a second

is like it, You shall love your neighbor as yourself.

On these two commandments depend all the law

and the prophets.’” (Matthew 22: 36-40).

We hear the Summary of the Law in the

introductory rites at every mass. These are the two

steps of the Christian journey to eternal life, said

the Reverend Canon Turner. “We are to translate

our love of God into active love of our neighbor –

beginning with the Christian community here.”

The Most Reverend Michael Ramsay wrote:

“Christians know the worship of God is to be first

of all, and know also that his worship is an idola-

trous perversion unless it is reflected in compassion

towards the world. ‘As the soul is in the body so are

the Christians in the world.’” (Be Still and Know:

A Study in the Life of Prayer. London, Fount Paper-

backs, 1982. 121.)

As our community looks to a new chapter,

with the anticipated call of a new rector, we can

remark on the many things that already bind us in

our life together. We have a beautiful liturgy and

serve as a visible witness to the Presence of the

Risen Lord, here on our corner in the Virginia-

Highland area of Atlanta. We serve our community,

offering our buildings most every day of the week

to various recovery groups, and we reach out to the

poor and those in need through various direct ef-

forts, funding a Thursday Ministry, sandwiches for

the Church of the Common Ground, and other help

to those in need. These are but a few of the things

that we do to “translate our love of God into active

love of our neighbor.”

This is simply reminding us once again who

we are and why we are here: celebrating the Gospel,

the Good News of Jesus Christ and carrying it forth

into the world – “stewards of the faith,” if you will.

As part of the Every Member Canvass, once

again several parishioners agreed to share their

individual stories of faith and of the importance of

this parish church in their lives. During the filming,

the stewardship committee members were deeply

moved by the many ways in which everyone who

participated articulated what the Church of Our

Saviour means to them. Repeatedly, genuineness

and generosity of spirit were offered in sharing a

love of our parish and in telling what it means to

be a part of this community. (The videographer

will have a challenging job editing the amazing con-

versations that continued all afternoon into several

two- to three-minute videos.) Across the latter half

of October, these video stories will be posted on

the parish website, and an email blast will alert you

each week when a new one is available.

Reverend Turner continues, “When the lawyer

asked Jesus the trick question he did not understand

that, in Jesus, he had at long last come to the one

who embodied the fulfillment of the law – God’s

salvation for his chosen people but found in the

person of Jesus Christ – the Word of God, the

Word made flesh; full of grace and truth; the light

of the world – all those attributes of the Torah now

made visible in a human being who was also fully

God – love made visible on earth. That love should

flow out from this church because we are the Body

of Christ.”

This time of year, we also ask everyone in

the parish to consider a tangible response to support

that mission, through the Every Member Canvass.

A packet with a request for a pledge for the coming

year and additional information about how your

contributions have been put to use in the current

year will be mailed to active households in mid-

October. In pledging, we make a commitment for

the coming year to demonstrate our love of God

and love of our neighbor through the mission and

ministry of this parish. “It starts,” said Father

Turner, “with this Christian community reflecting

the love that we offer God in the love that we give

to each other.”

The Every Member Canvass will culminate

A Minute for Ministry: Saint Fiacre’s Guild

Each month, the Stewardship Committee is

highlighting various ministries that the Church

of Our Saviour is in engaged in or supports,

using our time, talents, and treasure. This month’s

ministry is the garden guild, named Saint Fiacre’s

for the patron of gardens.

The garden guild, Saint Fiacre’s Guild, is a

task-oriented group that works to maintain and

beautify the grounds and garden of the parish. It is

also an outreach to the community. Members meet

the second Saturday of each month from 9:30am

with Ingathering Sunday, on the Solemnity of All

Saints, November 5. Each household is asked to

consider and return a pledge for the coming year,

prayerfully supporting the furtherance of God’s

Kingdom through the work of Our Saviour. All

Saints is especially chosen for Ingathering to

underscore our stewardship of the heritage with

which we have been entrusted. Any comments you

may have for our stewardship efforts are welcome,

and I ask your continued prayers for the parish and

this year’s Canvass.

At the back of the church and chapel are

images of Our Lady. “Mary’s role as Mother of

God,” said Father Turner, “is to show her son to

a waiting world. That’s our calling too and should

be the reason for our pledging – a response to our

desire to show Jesus to a waiting world; our desire

to make a difference – our desire to say ‘no’ to

being sustainable and ‘yes’ to growth; our desire

to make our Anglo-Catholicism rooted in the real

world and not some kind of ‘Geek-ish’ history

lesson – our desire to change lives because Jesus

has changed ours irrevocably.”

-Brian Mullaney

to noon, though the time commitment is flexible,

with members participating as they are available.

The guild provides the flowering pots by

the church doors and maintains the flowering beds

around the yard. They trim the hedges, and mulch

the bushes and plant beds. In dry weather, they see

that the planted areas are watered. The guild main-

tains the lower garden and children’s play area,

keeping the plantings trimmed and the play areas

covered with soft bark chips. Through the work

of Saint Fiacre’s Guild, our gardens achieved certifi-

cation as a wildlife habitat area, a refuge for song-

birds, butterflies, and other small wildlife. More

than once, the parish has been offered thanks by a

neighbor expressing gratitude for a quiet place in

the midst of a busy city to stop and to rest.

If you were wondering, Saint Fiacre was

raised in an Irish monastery in the seventh century.

Later in life, he traveled to France and established

a hermitage in a cave near a spring. Saint Faro of

Meaux, bishop at the time, responded to Fiacre’s

request for land to grow food and healing herbs,

offering as much land as he could entrench in one

day. The next morning Fiacre walked around the

perimeter of the land he wanted, dragging his spade

behind him. Through a miracle, wherever the spade

touched, trees were toppled, bushes uprooted, and

the soil was entrenched. This garden, miraculously

obtained, became a place of pilgrimage for centuries

for those seeking healing. His day is observed on

August 30 in Ireland and France. (Adapted from

“Saint Fiacre.” Catholic Saints.Info. May 9, 2016.)

To join or enquire further about Saint Fiacre’s

Guild, contact Kathie Spotts (770-216-9985 or

The Stewardship Committee would like to thank Kathie Spotts and all those participating in our Garden Guild who exemplify our parish life in Christ to the community. If you would like more information about this Guild or any other opportunities to begin or increase your participa-tion at Our Saviour, please reach out to any of the Stewardship Committee members (Jeff Chancellor, Brian Mullaney, Lauren Giles or Mary Sommers). Remember, it only takes a minute to share God's love. Do you have a minute?

Help the Saint Vincent Fund and Those in Need By Signing Up for Kroger Community Rewards

The Kroger Community Rewards offers us an opportunity to receive a share of the grocer’s charitable giving, based on our registered customer spending. In order to participate, parishion-ers must register and use a Kroger Plus Card at checkout. Please visit our webpage (oursaviouratlanta.org) and look for more information and a link to register. Alternatively, go to kroger.com/communityrewards, sign in or create an account, click “Enroll Now,” follow the prompts, type in “Church of Our Saviour” in the search field, click “Search” and link your Kroger Plus Card. You can verify your registration at the bottom of your receipt. Every purchase with an enrolled card will earn the par-ish a small “reward,” which goes into the Saint Vincent’s Fund to assist the poor and people in need (e.g., with food, clothing,

bus fare). Kroger recently informed us that we have 11 households registered. The participants gener-ated a contribution of $30.46 during the three months ending August 27, 2017. Thank you to everyone who participates in this important fundraising effort.

The Church of Our Saviour has donated $300 to Episcopal Relief & Development from our Operating Fund, as a tangible demonstration of our concern for those affected by Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria, and to support the work the Church is doing to provide relief. The vestry invites you to add to this contribution by donat-ing individually at episcopalrelief.org/donate. Through strong diocesan partnerships, Episcopal Relief (formerly the Presiding Bishop’s Fund for World Relief) works to equip parishes to meet the needs of those most vulnerable in their com-munities. Episcopal Relief has been responding to the impact of Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria, and assisting those impacted by the earth-quakes in Mexico, and will continue to do so. Dr. Robert Radtke, President of Episcopal Relief, asks anyone wanting to help to remember that this will be a marathon. Most disasters have three distinct, if sometimes overlapping, phases: rescue, relief and recovery. The rescue phase focuses on saving lives and securing property; please pray for those who are suffering as a result of these tragedies and for the professionals (police, firefighters, National Guard, and others)

who have risked their lives to save and serve others. The relief phase offers immediate assis-tance and shelter, and local parishes are one of the first places people go to seek help. This is where Episcopal Relief is focusing its resources right now, working through impacted dioceses to provide financial support. The recovery phase focuses on restoring services, repairing houses and buildings, returning individuals to self-sufficiency, and rebuilding communities. “The challenge of the recovery phase is that most of the television cameras have moved on, but the human suffering has grown. It is a chronic state, not a crisis. However, it is the phase that the Church excels in, because we are part of the communities that have been impacted and can best identify needs and work with the communi-ty to address them efficiently,” Dr. Radtke said. Please continue to pray for affected families and communities in Texas, Florida, and the Southeast, the Caribbean, and Mexico, as well as for our church partners and others who are caring for those in need. Thank you for supporting this effort at this critical time.

Taking this behest literally, as referring to the ruinous church wherein he knelt, Francis abandoned his inheritance and rebuilt the church and several others with his own hands. On a certain morning in 1208, probably February 24, Francis was hearing Mass in the chapel of Saint Mary of the Angels, near which he had then built himself a hut; the Gospel of the day told how the disciples of Christ were to pos-sess neither gold nor silver, nor scrip for their journey, nor two coats, nor shoes, nor a staff, and that they were to exhort sinners to repent-ance and announce the Kingdom of God. Francis took these words as if spoken directly to himself, and so soon as Mass was over threw away the poor fragment left him of the world's goods, his shoes, cloak, pilgrim staff, and empty wallet. At last he had found his vocation. Having obtained a coarse woolen tunic of “beast color,” the dress then worn by the poorest Umbrian peasants, and tied it round him with a knotted rope, Francis went forth at once exhorting the people of the countryside to penance, brotherly love, and peace. He began to attract followers and Pope Innocent III gave him a verbal sanction to the rule submitted by Francis and granted the saint and his companions leave to preach repent-ance everywhere.

Recipes On his deathbed, Saint Francis requested a dessert called frangipane. In modern times this refers to an almond-flavored filling. In Saint Francis’s time this most likely would have been some sort of almond pastry, such as mostaccioli, or an almond biscotti or cookie.

Saint Francis of Assisi By Michael D’Arrigo

(with additions by Oreta Hinamon Taylor) Saint Francis of Assisi, the founder of the Franciscan Order, was born at Assisi in Umbria, in 1181 or 1182 (the exact year is uncertain) and died there on October 3, 1226. Most of you are doubtless familiar with the broad outlines of his life. Francis received some elementary instruc-tion from the priests of Saint George’s at Assisi, but he was not very studious, and his literary education remained incomplete. Although asso-ciated with his father in trade, he showed little liking for a merchant’s career, and his parents seemed to have indulged his every whim. No one loved pleasure more than Francis; he had a ready wit, sang merrily, and delighted in fine clothes and showy display. Handsome, gallant, and courteous, he soon became the prime favorite among the young nobles of Assisi, the foremost in every feat of arms, the leader of the civil revels, the very king of frolic. But even at this time Francis showed an instinctive sympathy with the poor, and though he spent money lavishly, it still flowed in such channels as to attest a princely magnanimity of spirit. Although he thought to become a soldier, he began to have visions. As he was praying be-fore an ancient crucifix in the forsaken wayside chapel of Saint Damian's below the town, he heard a voice saying: “Go, Francis, and repair my house, which as you see is falling into ruin.”

Place the diamonds on a lightly buttered and floured baking sheet. Let dry for 1 to 2 hours.

Bake in a preheated 250°F oven for 20-30 minutes or until set. Do not let brown.

Paletta di Mandorla Almond Slices (from Ernst Schuegraf’s Cooking with the Saints)

1 cup butter 1 1/2 cup sugar 4 eggs 4 cups flour 2 cups almonds, whole, finely chopped,

or 4 cups almonds, ground 1 teaspoon baking powder 1 teaspoon vanilla Cream butter, sugar and eggs. Add the other

ingredients and knead until smooth. Form two rolls about 1 inch (3 cm) diameter.

Bake in a preheated moderately hot oven (375°F) for 10 to 12 minutes until golden brown.

When cool, cut into slices 3/4 inch (2 cm) thick, and toast in the oven for 3 minutes.

The Sermon of Saint Francis By Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Up soared the lark into the air,

A shaft of song, a wingéd prayer, As if a soul released from pain

Were flying back to heaven again.

Saint Francis heard: it was to him An emblem of the Seraphim;

The upward motion of the fire, The light, the heat, the heart’s desire.

Around Assisi’s convent gate

The birds, God’s poor who cannot wait, From moor and mere and darksome wood

Come flocking for their dole of food.

“O brother birds,” Saint Francis said, “Ye come to me and ask for bread,

But not with bread alone to-day Shall ye be fed and sent away.

“Ye shall be fed, ye happy birds, With manna of celestial words;

Not mine, though mine they seem to be, Not mine, though they be spoken through me.

“Oh, doubly are ye bound to praise

The great Creator in your lays; He giveth you your plumes of down,

Your crimson hoods, your cloaks of brown.

“He giveth you your wings to fly And breathe a purer air on high, And careth for you everywhere,

Who for yourselves so little care!”

With flutter of swift wings and songs Together rose the feathered throngs,

And singing scattered far apart; Deep peace was in Saint Francis’ heart.

He knew not if the brotherhood

His homily had understood; He only knew that to one ear

The meaning of his words was clear.
