Pastor’s Corner Pag e 2 th 2015: The 50 Anniversary of the Founding of Trinity Presbyterian Church Proclaim Jubilee! “You shall count seven weeks of years, seven times seven years, so that the time of the seven weeks of years shall give you forty-nine years. Then you shall sound the loud trumpet on the tenth day of the seventh month. On the Day of Atonement you shall sound the trumpet throughout all your land. And you shall consecrate the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout the land to all its inhabitants. It shall be a jubilee for you, when each of you shall return to his property and each of you shall return to his clan. That fiftieth year shall be a jubilee for you; in it you shall neither sow nor reap what grows of itself nor gather the grapes from the undressed vines. For it is a jubilee. It shall be holy to you. You may eat the produce of the field.” Leviticus 25:8-12 O ur Church Historian, Marian Lowry, has been busily gathering, organizing and cataloguing the accumulated experiences and memories of the past fifty years at Trinity Church. One of the documents she has uncovered notes that: “Trinity first worshiped in the Girl Scout cabin in Edwards Park, February 21, 1965 and was chartered August 29, 1965 with seventy members. Asheville Presbytery purchased Trinity a house, at 1403 W. 5 th Ave., our worship home from May 1965 until the first unit was completed December 1969. The education wing was added in 1981, with the sanctuary, offices and atrium added in 1996.” Throughout the coming year we will be remembering and celebrating our beginnings, our history, and our shared mission in the service of our Savior. We will be discovering together what “Jubilee” means for us in this age. Let me invite you to use this time to reflect on all that the Church has enabled YOU to experience as we prepare to move into the next fifty years! Shalom, Mark O Note from the Associate Pastor ne damp Sunday afternoon last month, at the Tarheel Lanes Bowling Alley, I was reminded of one of the things I really love about Trinity Presbyterian Church. The Trinity Youth had planned a bowling outing after church. There’s nothing especially earth-shaking about that; church youth groups go bowling all the time. But on that Sunday afternoon last month, we had one of the odder-looking youth groups you’d ever come across. There was a dad, a couple of uncles, and a big brother who came along with family members. There was another adult who joined us just because she thought it sounded like a fun way to spend the afternoon. There was my family—Carol, Olin, and Dean—none of whom fall into the typical youth group age range. Oh, and there were also some actual Trinity youth! If an innocent bystander had happened to come along and see us all there at the bowling alley, he or she might have thought, “Gee, that’s a pretty motley crew.” But to me, it looked a lot like the kingdom of God, in all its motley glory. Thanks for a great afternoon, Trinity “youth”! Peace, Dwight Pag e 3 February Birthdays Session Notes 1 On January 13 the Session held its regular monthly meeting. The devotion was brought by Mel Bringle who will be rotating off of Session. As you might expect, she involved the Session members in singing and signing a song of praise. Ben Moore notified the Session of two endowment gifts that had been received from the estate of Geraldine Waters, the mother of Bev Luzadder. The Session voted to receive these gifts for the purposes to which they had been designated. Tom Karvonen brought an amended budget proposal to Session, making modest changes to the previously approved budget. The Session approved this amended budget for 2015. The Session acknowledged new church members Dolly Owens and Angela Sides, who joined Trinity since the last regular meeting. The Session also noted the deaths of Ruth Samson and Jane Lovelace. In consultation with the Personnel Ministry, he has worked to develop a set of goals for the year based on some of the Ministry Initiatives of Trinity in support of the recent Visioning Process. The Session continued to consider portions of Trinity’s Visioning Process by discussing Mission Initiative #5 - We shall expand our offerings for faith conversation and fellowship. Items discussed included the possible initiation of a small group program for study, prayer and fellowship. Fellowship Ministry is looking at ways to implement this type of program. Also New Member Ministry is developing new ways for us to relate to visitors, and ways to enhance our web site. Mark Stanley reported that he is working on finding a better way of communicating with the church using email. Mass communication via email can be a very cumbersome process, so alternative ways of accomplishing this are being explored. Mark also wants to make improvements to the way we maintain the church calendar so that it will be more useful for everyone. The Finance Ministry report showed that December 2014 receipts were significantly above the budget, and as a result Trinity Appreciation was expressed to Edie ended the year $9,411 favorable to the Clark, Clerk of Session for the past seven 2014 budget. years, Mel Bringle and Hannah McCullough for their service, on the In his report, Dwight Christenbury occasion of their rotation off of Session. highlighted the many programs and services in which he was involved during The Ministry chairs, vice chairs and the Advent and Christmas Seasons.

We have been blessed to have a caring congregation who support us. We are grateful for all that you do to continue to make this preschool a reality. We are enjoying the very beautiful picture of Jesus blessing the little children. This was given to us by Joe Gernoske. Many of you saw this piece of art in his office. It is a constant reminder to share God’s love to these precious children. He also gave us the very large stuffed dog that he kept in his office. “Joe” will be our mascot and will spend time in each classroom for children to read to and snuggle with. Thank you Joe for these gifts to Trinity Preschool! For the Children, Peggy T rinity book group will meet on February 26, to discuss the book Letters from Yellowstone, by Diane Smith, a first novel with many accolades.

John Robinson, spiritual leader of the pilgrims who founded the Plymouth colony died in England before he could join his followers in the New World. In 1646, governor Edward Winslow recalled Robinson's farewell to the pilgrims as they set sail on the Mayflower. Robinson had urged the pilgrims to be open to new religious teaching, and: “...if God should reveal anything to us by any other instrument of his, to be as ready to receive it, as ever we were to receive any truth by his Ministry. For he was very confident the Lord had more truth and light yet to break forth out of his holy Word.” All members and friends of Trinity are invited and encouraged to come and be a part of this presentation and conversation about how to best share the “light of Christ” in our community.

Through this process we learned about how trauma is impacting people in various parts of the world. This led us to a program called “Trauma Healing Workshops.” This program began in the 1990s in Africa as a response to the many people who were suffering from trauma as a result of the wars there. Trauma may leave physical scars, but much of the trauma is psychological. The program was begun by people who were members of SIL and Wycliffe Bible Translators who saw the need for a Bible based approach to trauma healing. They wrote a book, “Healing the Wounds of Trauma: How the Church Can Help.” In order to expand this work throughout the world, in 2010 the American Bible Society agreed to take responsibility for the program. The Presbyterian Church USA, through its World Mission efforts, participates in presenting Trauma Healing Workshops in various countries. In 2014 Trinity Presbyterian helped to fund a Presbyterian program in Sudan, a country that has been wracked by civil war for a number of years. In 2013, our Global Mission Ministry learned about the need for trauma healing in Peru among the indigenous Quechua speaking population. As a result we funded the training of Rachel Yanac, a SIL/Wycliffe missionary, to come the US to become a certified Trauma Healing Workshop leader. In 2015 we will be continuing to support the trauma healing program in Peru. The trauma healing material has been translated into over 160 languages. Trinity will be making it possible for the material to be translated into three additional languages, specifically three Quechua dialects. We will also be helping to support the training of Quechua speaking workers as they bring trauma healing to their own people. To accomplish this, Trinity provided $2,000 in January dedicated to this program. By having a direct relationship with the people involved in bringing the Trauma Healing Workshops to Peru, we will be able to remain aware of the progress being made there.

January’s “Soon and Very Soon” was a gospel song, and December’s “Awake! Awake, and Greet the New Morn,” a carol. November’s “God, We Honor You” was a piece of service music in a form known as a quodlibet (If you don’t know this term, stay tuned until next month!). One of the points of this variety of genres is to become more familiar with the great diversity of musical resources available to us in Glory to God. To be even more precise, “In the Midst of New Dimensions” is a hybrid hymn: in addition to regular stanzas, it also has a refrain. The stanzas speak of a journey through testing times toward a future in which hopes for peace will be realized. Stanza 2 mentions “warring factions”; stanza 3, “a world divided”; stanza 4, differences in gender, age, and sexual "persuasion"; stanza 5, fears about the future of a church struggling with controversial issues. An additional stanza from the original hymn, which is generally not included in hymnals, also mentions different races: black, Asian, Indian, Hispanic, white The hymn’s opening stanza asks the all-important question: who will lead us through our wilderness wandering? The refrain provides an answer. Alluding to key moments in scripture, it reminds us that God Godself has promised to be with us: as a rainbow (after the flood), and a pillar of fire (during the Exodus). The refrain’s further image of God as one who leads “where the eagles soar” echoes the Old Testament reading for the 2nd Sunday in February: “those who wait for the Lord will mount up with wings like eagles” (Isaiah 40:31). All this pilgrimage imagery is especially fitting for a month in which we celebrate Jesus’ journey with Peter, James, and John to the Mount of Transfiguration (the 3rd Sunday in February), and our own journey with Jesus in the wilderness as we begin (in the last week of the month) to observe the season of Lent. Both the words and music to this hymn were written by Rev. Julian Rush, a United Methodist minister who served churches in Dallas, Denver, Boulder, and Colorado Springs for 17 years, until he came out as gay and the church he was serving decided to stop paying his salary. In response, a different church in the same state and denomination chose to hire him as a way of showing solidarity with the gay community and enacting their commitment to social justice. Rush’s last ministerial position before retirement was that of Executive Director for the Colorado AIDS Project. His courage and creative artistry remind us of the contributions made by many LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender) artists and patrons in the history of Christianity: among them, Michelangelo, who painted the Sistine chapel; King James I, who commissioned the King James translation of the Bible; Gerard Manley Hopkins, a leading Victorian poet; and Katherine Lee Bates, author of the words to “America, the Beautiful.” During Trinity’s “jubilee year,” Rush calls us to think carefully and hopefully about our commitment to God’s “wider dreams” of peace and justice, and our willingness to recognize each person as “a love song to be sung.” New Library Resources Author David LaMotte has donated a copy of his book, Worldchanging 101: Challenging the Myth of Powerlessness. Religious Experience with lecturer Dr. Andrew Newberg. Some of these lectures may be used in the Lecture and Response Class. The author writes that “our choices, whether active or passive, make more difference than we realize and are world changing.” His words are “encouraging, challenging, hopeful, and practical.” Books on order include the following: Irene Solbakken has donated the following titles: Angels at the Table (35/MAC) by Debbie Macomber and The Blessing of the Lord (9/COP) by Kenneth Copeland. The library ordered and received a DVD series from the Great Courses entitled: The Spiritual Brain: Science and Contested Land, Contested Memory: Israel’s Jews and Arabs, and the Ghosts of Catastrophe by Jo Roberts Prayer: Experiencing Awe and Intimacy with God by Timothy Keller Rejoicing in Lament with Incurable Cancer and Life in Christ by J. Todd Billings Page 9 Our Guatemala Partnership Pag e 1 3 “that we may be mutually encouraged by each other’s faith” Romans 1:12 Partnership Beyond Fuente de Vida W hile Trinity is in partnership with Fuente de Vida as a church to church relationship we are also part of a greater partnership. We are also part of the Presbytery of Western NC’s partnership with the Presbyteries of Sur Occidente (Sur) and Suchitepequez (Suchi). This article is a brief update on one of the committee happenings with in the presbytery partnership. The Education Committee grew out of the past Scholarship Committee and an Educational Study Trip in Guatemala in 2013. It was soon given the responsibility of implementing Education Plans of Action that would help improve the education of the students in the two Guatemalan presbyteries with which we partnership. Realizing the importance of reading in acquiring a sound education the Education Committee is working with the director of an already established program, “Libros para Niños” to begin a pilot Mobile Classroom Library Program in the school district of Santo Domingo, Suchi; where Hickory First PC is in partnership with Iglesia Monte Hebrón. Mary Jo Amani, director and trainer has been hired by the committee and on November 25, 2014 a meeting was held to explain the program and to observe the enthusiasm and commitment of two of the directors of the four schools and the several teachers who also attended as well as the school’s condition and readiness for the project. Training workshops will be held February 12th and 13th and again on February 26th and 27th. Included workshop topics are: • How to read books aloud • How to encourage conversations around stories • DEVELOP reading activities as based on the books • How to care and keep books • How to keep an inventory and develop a loan scheme • How to evaluate the project-how it is performing the objectives and how to deal with problems that arise The Guatemalan government requires a thirty-minute reading period (but does not provide sufficient books) so this project fits in perfectly with that curriculum item. Bookcases will be built by each school (according to given specifications) to hold the books that will travel from classroom to classroom every day. There will be a minimum of 325 quality children’s books in Spanish for two bookcases + 75 books for a lending library, The Mobile Classroom Library program has two components: Read Aloud and Sustained Silent Reading. In Read Aloud, teachers spend 15 – 30 minutes reading a story and conversing about it. In SSR, children spend 15 – 30 minutes a day reading books quietly to themselves or with a friend. First through Sixth Grade classrooms will participate. The basic principles of the project emphasize: reading for pleasure, reading choice is of importance, there is no grading, teacher participation is voluntary, books are not separated by grade level, there must be a minimum of three times a week reading sessions, preferably five times a week, there is to be Read Aloud by teacher and individual/paired reading by students. Following implementation and evaluation of this first pilot project a second project will begin in Sur Occidente presbytery with continuing projects as funding allows. The initial cost of a project is planned to be $5,000. The average cost of each book is $15, which includes shipping, and country taxes. However; the PWNC has set up a program: Books in Your Honor (like the Reclaiming Christmas program) that asks for a $10/book contribution in exchange for a gift card.
