Good Faith Sunday
Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot,
Nothing is going to get better. It's not.
― Dr. Seuss, The Lorax
Through Good Faith, our congregation can help families in our community who are going through a difficult time.
The loose offering that is collected on the first Sunday of each month, both cash and designated checks, is used to
assist applicants with rent and utility bills. The Good Faith Committee receives the applications, contacts the
applicants and talks to them about their situation. The committee then makes a decision about the extent to which
we can help. Each situation is unique. Sometimes it is long-term; often it is temporary. Usually, the Good Faith
Fund cannot cover an applicant’s total bill, but it can make a significant difference.
Today is Good Faith Sunday. It is an opportunity to show that we care a whole awful lot. Submitted by Jane Michael

Seminary to discuss "The New Jim Crow" during
Black History Month
The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness by Michelle Alexander will be the focus
of a community-wide conversation on February 2, 2015, the first event in the seminary's observance
of Black History Month.
The event will begin at 6:00 p.m. with a 30-minute presentation, "The Cruel Hand, the Birdcage, and
the Fire this Time: A Theological Reflection on The New Jim Crow" by Asante Todd, instructor in
Christian ethics at Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary. Asante, himself African-American, will
introduce the book and participate in a question and answer period. The discussion will then move to
table groups where participants can share thoughts, stories, insights, and questions arising from the
book and the presentation.
Members of the local community interested in participating are invited to join the discussion on the
seminary campus. If you plan on attending the event at the seminary, please take a minute to RSVP
for the event. All participants are strongly encouraged to read The New Jim Crow by Michelle Alexander before
the discussion. Submitted by Christine Havens

Spiritual Formation Opportunities
It’s that time of the year when we announce our Spring Adult Formation opportunities. As always, we have a
wonderful group of facilitators who have stepped up to offer us a class of their own design. These classes
aren’t “repeats” of anyone else’s material. They are designed and developed for YOU – our parishioners. They
require many, many hours of preparation and practice. Classes begin February 8.
Deciding on the Collect for the semester, within the Spiritual Formation Council, is actually the last prayerful
decision we make. We will have spent weeks poring over scriptures related to our theme. This semester our
theme is connecting with the community around us. As you think about our community, please pray with us
the Collect chosen for this semester.
Heavenly Father, whose blessed Son came not to be served but to serve: Bless all who, following in his steps, give themselves to the
service of others; that with wisdom, patience, and courage, they may minister in his Name to the suffering, the friendless, and the
needy; for the love of him who laid down his life for us, your Son our Savior Jesus Christ, who lives and reigns with you and the
Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
Our Adult Formation classes give you an opportunity to belong to a small group and get to know a few fellow
parishioners at a level you haven’t known them before. If you’ve never tried an adult class, why not let February 8th be the Sunday you drop off your children and find your way to one of our offerings. Our class offerings, from children through adults are also a great way to introduce your friends and neighbors to St. Matthew’s! All classes are designed to be intergenerational. All are welcome!
Watch for the posters going up across the campus – probably this week!
As always, please let me ([email protected]) know if you have an idea for a course that you would like to attend or teach. We’re already starting a list of ideas for next fall! Submitted by Laurie Brown

Brotherhood of St. Andrew Breakfast
8:00 am Saturday February 14
All men of the parish are welcome and encouraged to attend the monthly breakfast
meeting of the Brotherhood of Saint Andrew on Saturday, February 14, in Huffman
Hall. Our speaker will be Cliff Harrison.
The subject of Cliff Harrison's talk will be: "Since I was a child, God has had a guiding
hand on me, not to make my life choices, but to help me through the rough times and the good times. I
just did not know it until now." Cliff will share his life journey, as much as he can in the
time allowed. He will talk about how it is still unfolding, and how he doesn't know
where it will lead. St. Matthew's and the Episcopal Church have been a big part of his
journey, even though they did not find each other until 1986. Since 2000, Nan
and Cliff have been through some very stressful, as well as wonderful, times. Their church family has been
God's guiding hand in helping them through these times.

Paul Reed
Trained to be angry, trained to be hostile, trained to be mean, this Vietnam veteran, who assumed he had
killed a Vietnamese man, brought home the man's diary as a souvenir and had it translated. The "poetry" of
this book brought him to the realization of what he'd done and become. This was poetry written by an enemy
he had learned to hate and kill. He didn't know but assumed that Nguyen van Nghia had been killed in their
battle. Paul went back to Vietnam to return the diary to the family—to find the man was alive and wanted to
meet him.

The Rt. Rev. John McKee Sloan, Episcopal Bishop of Alabama
Bishop Sloan has written a book, Jabbok, about the unlikely and profound decades-long friendship between a
white boy in the Mississippi Delta and an old black preacher who'd lost his faith and his family and lives in a
cave in the graveyard. This novel reveals much about racism and ageism, the sins of "the church," and
redemption.

Our Lenten Tradition at St. Matthew’s Continues in 2015.
On Shrove Tuesday at the Pancake Supper the Outreach Commission will
kick off our annual drive to support Heifer International. Heifer has helped
millions of struggling families become more self-reliant by providing food
and income producing animals and training in their care. Those families that
receive the animal then pass on one or more of their animal’s offspring to
other families in need. It’s the gift that keeps on giving.
During each Sunday in Lent, you will have an opportunity to buy a cow, a
goat or a trio of rabbits to help fill an Ark. The cost to fill one Ark with
pairs of animals is $5000.00. How many Arks can we fill in 2015?

Make a donation to Heifer in Honor of that Special Someone, send them a Heifer Gift Card letting them know a
“sheep” was given in their name. It’s the perfect gift for that someone who has everything and the best part is, the gift
continues to give.

Make a Lenten Rule to benefit Heifer. Give up that daily Starbucks habit and donate the money to buy a trio of chicks
or even a hive of bees.

In Sunday School, the children will learn about Heifer and the difference their giving can make. Ark banks will be given
to each child and can be used to collect change. The banks will be accompanied by a calendar that gives kids ideas on
how to earn money to help purchase animals for needy families around the world.
By supporting Heifer International, YOU are enabling others to feed themselves! Please join us in our efforts. Together we
CAN help end world hunger. If you would like more information on Heifer, please visit our table in the Commons on Sunday mornings. We would love to have your help during our Lenten Project. To volunteer, please contact Lisa Hobbs at [email protected] or 512-297-7792. Submitted by Lisa Hobbs

year some of the costumes, that allow the children to participate, need a little love. We need hems on many of

Evening Prayer Ministry
Annual Report to the Parish of St. Matthew’s – January, 2015
The Evening Prayer Ministry exemplifies the strong Lay, Spiritual, and Prayerful leadership that St. Matthew’s
is known for. This ministry, open to all members, is a wonderful way for the team to intentionally commit to
leading the Daily 6:00 pm Evening Prayer service, culminating in lifting up, through prayer and by name, each
and every person and ministry published weekly on St. Matthew’s Prayer List. Although not a highly attended
service, parish members take comfort to know that their loved ones, or things important to them, are indeed
lifted up, at least daily, in prayer.
A group of 28 spiritual leaders are scheduled daily, individually or in teams of two, to serve this wonderful
ministry in the quaint and peaceful Charlotte Cauley Gray Bell Tower Chapel at the base of the campus’ Bell
Tower. Five new leaders joined the team in 2014 while two discontinued serving including Sally Miller and our
dear friend, the late Dyke Miller. Serving as Evening Prayer leaders during 2014 were Beth Billman*, Tom &
Kate Canby, John Chilstrom, Babs Clendenin, Jim Dettmann, Betty DiPaola, Jean Fuller, Tony Hatheway,
Christian Hawley*, Bert & Marjorie Hooper, Richard Sutch & Ellen Legett, Tom LeMond, Will Lutz, Katherine Marion, Joe McLean, Sally Miller, Scott Murphy, Don Neely, Ann O'Connell*, Larry* & Nancy Richards,
Steve Ryder, Denman Smith, Merrill Wade*, Doug Webster. (* New Leaders in 2014)
A sincere Thank You to those wonderful members who are or have so reverently served in this important
parish ministry.
The Evening Prayer team joyfully serves God and the parishioners of St. Matthew’s. Anyone interested in
joining this ministry should contact Scott Murphy.
Respectfully submitted,
Scott Murphy
