HERALDCHRIST CHURCH DEER PARK, TORONTO, CANADA VOLUME 37, NUMBER 3

Eagerly waiting for the doors to open on a (rare, this year) beautiful April day.

Dear Friends,

AT PENTECOST, WE CELEBRATE the gift of God’s Holy Spirit upon the Church. Theactivity of the Holy Spirit is the subject of much interest these days. In John’s Gospel(14:15-21) Jesus describes a vital aspect of the work of the Holy Spirit in the lives ofhis followers.

Given the availability of a time machine, would we rather spend time in the companyof Jesus 2000 years ago or continue with what we have as Christians now in the ageof the Holy Spirit? Most people would probably opt for the former. But as Jesus prepares his disciples for his immanent departure, he explains that it is actually totheir advantage that he is going away. The astonishing truth is that the blessing of the Holy Spirit will be even greater than the blessing of the physical presence of Jesus.Jesus underlines the fact that the one to come is the Spirit of truth who will faithfullymake Jesus real to them.

But not having the physical limitations imposed by the humanity of Jesus, the Spirit is able to be in all places at all times, not simply dwelling with us but, moreimportantly dwelling within us. That is why it is to our advantage. But it all dependson Jesus “going to the Father”, a route which takes him inexorably via the suferingand the glory of the Cross to the glory of the resurrection and the ascension. Onlywhen the Lamb of God has taken away the sins of the world will it be possible for the Holy Spirit to enter into this new relationship with his followers.

We read and hear that we will not be left comfortless; we will not be left orphaned.That Spirit which we celebrate at Pentecost will continue to give us life as individualsand as a community of faith. That will be so - that is the promise. The question is, do we believe it?

The commandments of Jesus are all to do with love. They are absolutely not to dowith multiple points of organizational structure or personal behaviour. Love God,Love Your Neighbour. We know the summary of the Law that Jesus declared even as he gave us a new commandment: to love one another as he has loved us. We arecalled to share back what we have ourselves already received. That is to be our mostdefining and apparent characteristic.

Legend tells that Gabriel put the question to Jesus after the Ascension.

“ What arrangements have you made for the continuation of your work?”

“ I have left eleven people”, Jesus replies.

“What if they fail?” Gabriel asks.

“I have made no other arrangements.”

From theUpper Room

“They who have my commandments and keep them arethose who love me; and those who love me will be loved ofmy Father, and I will love them and reveal myself to them.”

This is good news on a grand scale.This is an understandingof God’s relationship to us and our relationship with Godand each oher.

May this be so as we dwell in Him and He in us.

CAN YOU BELIEVE IT - its June! We are half way toChristmas.. I have always found the human habit of lookingfor the next marker fascinating and, that has been the casethroughout this transition period. As a congregation I wantto commend you on a few things I have observed, on a fewmarkers as we journey through this current experience.

Many of my colleagues warned me about the anxiety theparish would experience, how everyone will be off balanceand tentative, waiting on decisions until the ‘new’ rectorarrives. Well, they clearly do not know the people of ChristChurch Deer Park. There has been a little anxiety, and a fewdecisions have been set aside waiting for the appointment of our new rector. BUT, overall I would say this experience,this transitional journey, has been wonderful. Full of opportunities for input, and for reflection of who we are asindividuals and who we are as a congregation. Instead ofanxiety I think there has been a real and palpable excitementand anticipation.

We have learned that we are not bereft of leadership, we

have some outstanding lay leaders in this parish and theyhave stepped forward. We have learned that our identity isnot encapsulated in the rector, and we are now engaged inthe process of identifying and articulating that dynamicidentity.

We have faced the hard facts! The parish profile (a wonderfulgift to us by a tremendously talented and committed selectioncommittee) was hard medicine for some. The rose colouredglasses have been removed and CCDP with all its warts andfailures is laid bare for the world to see. Here’s the goodnews - you didn’t retreat! You have faced the financial andgovernance issues head on with integrity, determination anda healthy dose of hope for the future.

In this transition some of the great strengths of the who and what of CCDP have also come to light. This is anextraordinary community of welcome and inclusion. Any,and all are equally welcomed and valued. There is an openand, I believe, deliberate desire to live together in community.This is ever visible at the 10am liturgy where the tradition-alist and contemporary believer and liturgy participant worship side by side.

As a congregation you should be proud of yourselves - I amcertainly proud of you!

The summer brings with it the opportunity for rest andrefreshment. To that end I will be on vacation during July,be assured of my continued prayer for you as individualpeople of God and as community. I hope you too maketime for family, friends and perhaps a good book or two.

Blessings

Samantha Assistant Curate

Tom’s “Grace”(by request)

Lord, bless this food upon these dishes

As thou didst bless the loaves and fishes.

And as the sugar in the tea,

May all of us be stirred by thee.

PromiseLand Summer Fun!IT’S HARD TO BELIEVE it’s already June, and summer is just a hop, skip and a jump away! We’ve been busy inPromiseLand over the past few months, and I think we’reall looking forward to a relaxing and fun summer!

This May, we launched our World Religions Series bylearning about Judaism, Buddhism and Islam. We had aPassover Seder – we sang music, told the Exodus story andperhaps most importantly, tasted some of the traditionalfood. Then, we talked about appreciation and tried to bepresent in each moment by doing different Buddhist medi-tations. We learned about the Muslim Prophet Mohammedand practiced writing greetings in Arabic Script. It was agreat couple of weeks and helped us appreciate the diversityof our city and world!

This summer, all kids are invited to learn and play togetherevery Sunday in the Chapel of St. Nicholas. We will havebooks, crafts, games and DVDs to keep kids engaged andlearning during the summer months. Every week from June19th to August 28th, a PromiseLand parent will downstairsready to welcome the kids of CCDP as well as all visitingkids! Hope to see you there!

But before we head off to camp, cottages, or just hangingaround the city, we are having one LAST PARTY! Join uson Sunday, June 19th for our ANNUAL SUMMER BBQon the lawn. We’ll have tons of delicious food, and it’s agreat opportunity to catch up with friends and maybe makesome new ones, before the summer. I hope everyone canmake it.

I wish everyone a safe, relaxing and laughter-filled summer!

Catch the Spirit!THE FAITHWORKS 2011 CAMPAIGN is in full swing. This diocesan appeal supports 14 community ministries. It alsohelps fund three partner agencies: the Anglican Appeal (forclergy and lay leader theological education in the North, as well as church partners in the Anglican Communion);LOFT Community Services (for housing, community support, and street outreach to needy and troubled people);and the Primate’s World Relief and Development Fund (forsustainable development, emergency relief, refugees, andglobal justice). With overhead of just 12 cents on the dollar,FaithWorks over the past 15 years has distributed more than$18 million to people in need. This year’s goal is $1,550,000- to top the record $1.5 million raised in 2010. So the campaign seeks a 5% increase in donations from every parish in the diocese.

Why should it matter to us in CCDP? Archbishop ColinJohnson sees donating to it as a tangible way that we, asAnglicans in the Diocese of Toronto, live out our Baptismalcall. Faithworks says its ministries change hopelessness intohope, loneliness and isolation into community, despair intodignity. On the broader canvas of the diocese, it does whatCCDP and the Churches on the Hill show in the neigh-bourhood that they care about.

There’s a wide range of FaithWorks ministries. All SaintsChurch Community Centre serves marginalized peopledowntown, Flemingdon Park Ministry has a storefront mission for a multicultural community, and the Philip AzizCentre on Moore Avenue offers home hospice service andchaplaincy care for people with HIV/AIDS. In NorthDurham region, North House provides transitional housingand support for homeless women and children. In Orillia,Couchiching Jubilee House offers transitional housing andsupport for homeless women and children. Barrie has theDavid Busby Street Centre and in Mississauga The Damhelps youth and young moms (13 to 24). Toronto UrbanNative Ministry works with aboriginals who live on thestreet. Anglican United Refugee Alliance provides supportservices to churches helping refugees.

An exciting new ministry added to FaithWorks this year isthe Street to Trail Association (Toronto). It helps street peoplerediscover their own inner sense of worth using nature’s healing power by taking them on wilderness hikes, canoetrips, and other outdoor excursions out of the city. Stories ofrecovered hope and inner peace, addictions overcome, newmeaningful relationships, and even jobs are emerging!

CCDP has been a leader in FaithWorks in the past. Thecampaign donation envelopes are at the back of the churchon the table. When you donate, be sure to give throughCCDP - 15% of donations can be retained by CCDP forour own outreach work (as the donation card explains).Let’s make this another banner year!

ACW NewsLynn Lovekin and Nancy Pickering were our delegates at the ACW Annual General Meeting in May. The themewas “The Tapestry of Life” and they particulary enjoyedthe Keynote Speaker, Marian Timmermans, ExecutiveDirector of Extendicare, Cobourg. New ACW pins arenow available ($5.00).

This year’s Spring Luncheon was a great success...86 peopleattended with a good number of men joining in...wehope this sets a trend. The lunch was, as usual, deliciousand everyone thoroughly enjoyed Walter Blackwell’s tales,with photos, of his trip to Nepal.

The St. Andrew’s Group Tuesday gatherings will continueover the summer months...drop in with your knitting,craft or just for conversation...bring your lunch...or justdrop in to eat your lunch. Afternoon Bridge will also continue if players turn up. Remember...we’re promised a hot, steamy summer, so keep in mind that the church is air conditioned!

The always popular Bridge Luncheon is set for Tuesday,October 31st.

Parish Forum

A COMMITTED GROUP of approximately 75 people attendedthe Forum on Stewardship on Sunday, June 12th.

Rob Morrow, Finance Warden, gave a summary of thefinancial situation at CCDP; while spending has beenunder control there is little room for any further reductions.On the other hand, some basic costs continue to rise whileour revenues have been in a decline for several years.

Susan Graham Walker, from the Church of the Redeemer,gave us a history of their very successful efforts to encourageand increase the financial contributions from each of theirmembers. These included reviewing the previous year’s givings, setting a theme for the coming year, discussion at Vestry followed by a letter and pledge card, a mid-yearreview (June), a mailed or personal reminder (Sept.), ayear-end push and a personal “thank-you” note to everydonor.

Innes van Nostrand, Chair of the Stewardship Committee,then presented some general principles for successfulfundraising and some particulars on a proposed upcomingstewardship campaign at CCDP. He disclosed that 6 of the8 people he has approached to serve on the committee haveaccepted.

Following these presentations smaller groups discussed thevarious questions posed on stewardship and reported backto the general forum. Based on their comments, three mainobservations were made at the conclusion of the meeting:

1. There was unanimous acceptance of the need for a financial stewardship campaign.

2. There was recognition that part of the currentproblem was that people had not been personallyapproached about their annual contributions in a longtime.

3. There was optimism that, when our congregationare asked with understanding and sensitivity, a significantincrease in annual givings can be anticipated.

Thank you to all who participated.

Special Vestry

Motion:

CORPORATION BE AUTHORIZED to borrow up to $110,000from the 1870 Fund to draw down Christ Church DeerPark’s bank line. Any surplus in the Operating Fund at the end of the year shall first be used to pay down the outstanding bank line and the rest shall be returned, withinterest, to the 1870 Fund.

Moved by David Thornton and seconded by Rob Morrow.

A short discussion followed in which it was pointed outthat interest charged on our bank line has recently risen to7 1/2% while interest earned on the 1870 Fund is 2%. It is also a fact of life that givings drop noticably over the summer months when many parishioners are away and thepresent budget shortfall will only worsen.

The motion passed unanimously.

Isn’t it strange......how a 20 dollar bill seems like such a large amount when you donate it to church, but such a small amount when you go shopping?

Books, Books, BooksTHE BOOK SALE WAS A SUCCESS (inspite of a cool andrainy day) and many thanks to all who helped on theFriday and Saturday. Spoecial thanks go to Ben Dibben,Rita Becker, Judith Maxwell, Anne Kear and DeidreMalone, whose help during the year was essential.

Future book sales are under discussion; sales are decliningslightly each year and, to continue, we need more helpand more storage space. In the meantime we will not beaccepting books, tapes or CD’s until a decision has beenmade.

Rummage...Past and FutureA last word of thanks from Rita...ONCE AGAIN ANOTHER successful Rummage Sale, held onApril 9th...my final sale as co-ordinator.

Many thanks to all who have participated so loyally over thelast several years.

Jean King and Denis Delisle...thank you for your valuedsupport.

A special thanks to Judith Maxwell and Betty Dickerson,who worked on rummage year-round and also to those whohelped on an “as needed” basis.

I have enjoyed this most challenging experience whichproved to be a most helpful diversion from personal issues.For this I am very gratedul.

Thank you all! See you around!Rita Becker

Looking Forward with MJ...AS MANY OF YOU KNOW, I, have accepted the challenge torun our Rummage Sales for the next two years. I am veryfortunate in that Judith Maxwell and Rita Becker haveagreed to stay on with me. Judith is very knowledgeable aboutour Treasures, Art and White Elephants. Rita Becker’sexpertise is in Ladies Wear and she has agreed to oversee our“Boutique” and all the Ladies’ clothes. Pat Anderson continuesto do a great job with our Jewellery department as doesBetty Van Wyck with our linens.

There are two additional people I must not neglect tothank...Jean King and Denis Delisle are always of great helpto us. So to both of you, thank you.

However our back-bones are you, the Volunteers...we simplycan’t do it without you!

To run the “Sale” itself we need sixty five (65) Volunteers(that includes the three of us) plus an additional eight (8)for clean up. One drawback is that most of our volunteersare getting on in years. So please know that we appreciateand thank you all for the time and energy you have given usover the past years, and hopefully I can count on you forcoming years as well.

Clearly, it is time for some of our younger parishioners andfriends to start stepping in to help. Yes, we work hard, butwe also have a lot of fun and gain a great deal of satisfactionin knowing that out efforts are appreciated at multi levels.

Outreach

WE ARE VERY MUCH MISSING the inspiration and leadershipof Brian Buckingham, who died this past January. Hiswidow, Yvonne, has requested that memorial gifts given inhis name be designated for CCDP Outreach and used in hismemory. About $5,000.00 has been donated to date, forwhich we are very grateful..

The Outreach Committee met May 3rd and June 7th, todiscuss and plan for the future.

Our budget from Corporation is $5,000.00. In these timesof financial restraint our plan is to live within it throughcareful management. In doing so, we have to consider several ongoing committments:

COTH Foodbank

Our monetary responsibility to the COTH Foodbank is $2,500 each year. We also provide volunteers and food collected through your generous donations. We continue to welcome your gifts of food and money to help with thismuch needed project.

Saturday Morning Breakfast

This program has proven very successful, thanks to Ross Morrow, Anne Larkin and a wonderful group of volunteers. It is also much appreciated by our clients.Outreach funds this program from our budget (about$2,300 a year).

These do not leave much room, for other direct donations.We are grateful to the ACW, who sent representatives toour meeting and shared their Outreach budget endeavorswith us. They are very generous supporters of many causesand we feel, between us, that we are able to fund our In-House projects within our means. We are thankful to anumber of generous persons who have made donations tothese projects and others, such as the Malawi Fund.

Malawi

The Rt. Rev. Fanuel Magangani, the new Bishop ofNorthern Malawi (who visited us recently), is doing a greatjob and our lines of communication have been reopened. In 2007-8 we were able to send just under $10,000 to support the Dietary Improvement Plan, and the PrenatalClinic on Likoma Island. From the balance of about $6,000

held in that fund, we were happy to be able to send $5000in June. We need to work on raising an additional $9,000in order to sustain the project for the next while. Any ideas,or offers, would be welcome. If interested in donatingmoney or time to the Malawi Committee, please speak toSamantha Caravan or J.R.Thornton.

While here, Bishop Fanuel extended an invitation to visitLikoma...an opportunity to see, befriend, learn and work insitu.

We are presently working on setting up an Airmiles PoolingBank (for Aeroplan miles) to cover the traveling costs ofsending a group of our Youth (chaperoned) to Malawi.There will be more news about this soon.

School Lunch Program

We investigated the possibility of setting up a lunch program for hungry children in a downtown school. Wediscovered that this would be a complicated and expensiveundertaking for us at this time, so have decided to place theidea aside for future consideration.

We are also looking into partnering with the Blessing of theBackpack organization, that aids students with educationalmaterials.

Drew Buckingham, Brian’s son, is a teacher in theJane/Finch area. We have learned that, from his own pocket,he regularly purchases bread, cheese, peanut butter etc. toprovide food for the many children who arrive at schoolwithout having had breakfast. Hungry children cannotlearn. We agreed to send a small amount from Brian’sMemorial Fund to assist him in this good work. We willrevisit helping further with this project in September.

Cooking Class

Tailored for those among us who find themselves on theirown, recently widowed or have become the caregiver in thefamily and find themselves at a loss in the kitchen...we’llhelp de-mystify the art of shopping for and preparing basic,healthy, comfort foods...and we guarantee that you’ll havefun too. Courses will run 6 weeks, Thursdays, 3:30 - 5:30,beginning in late September, in the lower. kitchen. If interested, leave a message with Jean King in the office: 416-920-5211 ext 22

Our ability to continue these valuable programsdepends, as always, upon the availability of sufficient financial and volunteer support. We need more of both -more money and more volunteers! If you can help witheither, we would be delighted to hear from you. ContactJ.R.Thornton at 416-489-6740 or jrthornton@sympatico.ca

The Gallery“THE GALLERY” HAS BEEN drawing increasing attention and traffic from the community. The solo exhibitions this yearhave been well received and we’re attracting some veryinteresting community artists who want to show their workhere. The guest book in the Gallery is just about full - we’llhave to get another one soon!

In response to the numerous artists’ queries, we have set up a selection jury of three of our congregation members:Nora Dobell, Joyce Hamilton and Bob Reeves. They havean interesting job ahead for them. It promises to be an exciting line-up of artists and a full schedule.

For the Summer, we have scheduled two group art shows of five artists each. The theme for the first show (June 19th- July 31st) is: “Does art have a transformative power?” Fiveartists are inviting viewers to see their work and ponder.From our congregation, Jane Gillespie will be displaying4 Chinese brush paintings, and Vivien Jenkinson will beshowing 3 watercolors. The 3 community artists are: JoanaMarcinenas (Pointillism), Mary Wagler and Ileen Kohn -exhibiting oils and acrylics.

The second group art show will hang from Aug. 7th toSept.11th and will also show 5 artists. The selection jury is in the process of finalizing the line-up of artists for yetanother interesting exhibition.

The schedule for the rest of the calendar year is just aboutcomplete and the selection jury will soon be starting to fillthe slots for early 2012.

Please feel free to tell your friends and associates about ourArt and Spirituality program and the exhibitions.

YOUTHLINK DinnerON MAY 12TH at 6:00pm, a few members of our ACWdescended on the Vanauley Street offices of the InnerCity Youth Program, bringing with them a feast of homemade goodies. It was “Drop in Night” and about 30 street youth, boys and girls, attended. They were sopolite...and SO hungry...gobbling up all the cassaroles,lasagnas (meat and vegetarian), salads, cookies and fruit,(all made and provided by members of the ACW)

In the mid-eighties, Christ Church Deer Park and aparishioner (who wished to remain anonymous) joinedforces to hire a street worker for a year ($15,000), whoseproject was to do research on street prostitution (a concernfor both girls and boys). It was a wonderful contributionto the program that ultimately became Youthlink and itseems fitting that we have helped them again.

A huge “thank you” to everyone who contributed. It wasvery much appreciated.
