Jesus Christ is the same

yesterday, today, and forever.” The same can be said about the seasons of the year, although the weather within them can vary a great deal from one year to the next. They flow through time in the same order, and with them activity on Manitoba’s farms repeat a similar pattern as well. Transitioning from winter to spring means that calving on our farm is coming to an end and that spring planting is just around the corner. The month old calves running and jumping with their herd mates provide tangible proof that life is indeed good and a gift meant to be used with a certain gusto and also meant to be shared with others. The longer days give the sun a chance to warm the earth which will be needed to germinate the crops we plant. The anticipation and hope that accompany spring on the farm, like Easter, is

almost palpable and can erase the most disappointing memories of poor crops and harsh economic realities. We are given a clean slate and although we can’t script the perfect crop we can choose how we react to the numerous challenging situations that will most certainly occur throughout the coming growing season. Spring is a time when the native birds and animals either return or emerge from winter dens; a time when crocuses and other hardy prairie wild flowers rise up and give colour to the stark, brown prairie landscape. A reminder that the land we farm is only ours to look after and maintain for all creatures, human and otherwise. A lesson that many, myself included, too often forget as numerous farms are into their third or fourth generation with the same family. Spring is also a t ime of preparat ion. Doing maintenance on machinery, securing adequate amounts of fertilizer, and of course

having seed for the various crops cleaned and ready for planting. It’s a time to control the variables you can control all the while knowing the most important variables, the weather and price for your crops, is out of your control. So, spring requires a faith that endures not only when rewarded but also when events play out against you. It’s never pleasant when this occurs and all you can do is accept the result. Once accepted, however, life can begin again and a deeper appreciation of all the blessings that we have

been given is the humbling result. Spring is a time when we work closely and intensely with family or employees. It is an acute reminder that we aren’t self-sufficient. We really do need others and on the other side of that, they really do need us. And because of that their happiness and well-being is my concern as mine is to them. The challenge God puts before us is to extend these feelings outward to all humanity. Spring is a reminder that I need to work on that.

Final ly, spring comes wrapped in a promise. The promise of Easter. The promise of new life, new beginnings as embodied by our calves and crops. The promise that life always triumphs over death. May spring be a time of growth not only in the fields but for all my brothers and sisters in Rupert’s Land!

New life, new beginnings,

a triumph over death

“

Rupert’s land news 3May 20121 fRoM the bishoP

God’s Garden

I think for me, the first awareness I had of the fragility of our Earth

came with the growing concern over air pollution t h a t e m e r g e d i n t h e mid-twentieth century. This was quickly followed with an equivalent concern over the pollution of lakes and rivers. Growing up in the midst of the Great Lakes, we were particularly aware of the plight of Lake Erie which was described as a lake that had aged thousands of years faster than it should have, and was now beginning to die. Fortunately, through some very disciplined measures, the water quality is actually improving and the inevita-bility of the lake’s death has been reversed. Now, in the 21st century, there is a much greater awareness of the interde-pendence of all living things – oceans and marine life, forests, birds, and insects, and in addition to the air and water, the Earth itself.

Even the animals that are raised to provide meat for consumption have become the subject of debates over ethically appropriate ways of sustaining and ultimately ending their lives. For many people this concern has spiritual or metaphysical roots – based in the deep-seated belief that there is much more to life and the created order than we humans can understand or even perceive. The dominant western culture is undergoing a transformation. Human beings are being de-centred – we’re coming to terms with the fact that we are part of this garden, rather than being the master gardeners. In the midst of these r e a l i z a t i o n s t h a t a r e transforming the way we live, at this time in our Easter services we’re reading from the fifteenth chapter of John’s Gospel. Jesus says, “I am the vine, you are the branches. Those who abide in me and I in them bear much fruit, because apart from me you can do nothing.” Jesus describes God as the “vinegrower” or gardener. “He removes every branch in me that bears no fruit,” Jesus says. “Every branch that bears fruit he prunes to make it bear more fruit.” I don’t think we can dismiss these references as being “merely a metaphor.” Jesus

continues, “My Father is glorified by this, that you bear much fruit and become my disciples,” after which he continues to teach very plainly about the love that God has for us and the desire God has that we live in, and be sustained by, that love, so that our “joy may be complete.” What does it mean for us, as human beings and as beings created to be in a special relationship with our Creator, to “bear fruit”? In the garden in our backyard at home we have a fine stand of raspberry canes. While we’re pretty certain that plant life is not self-aware – that it doesn’t have the mental capability for self-reflection – even if those raspberry plants could describe their life, they probably wouldn’t talk about those beautiful red berries as if they were a “commodity” – a “fruit” that can be picked and eaten. Instead, I suspect that they would “talk” about the berries as the beautiful and joyous result of living a good and wholesome life – of having sufficient water, sunlight, nutrients and warm temperatures all at the right time and in the proper amounts. And the really “intelligent ones” might even remark on the helpful pruning (as painful as it feels at the time), the fertilizing

and the cultivation that the gardener offers them, as helping to enrich this natural result of bearing fruit. Jesus makes it pretty clear that God intends us to be bountifully fruit-bearing through our living in and with Jesus. So what do you think God has in mind – especially since Jesus suggests that we’re not able to do much fruit-bearing without him? Again, raspberry canes might be able to teach us something. Left to their own devices they will eventually overpower the rest of the garden, crowding out other p lant s, and u l t imate ly beginning to choke out other raspberry canes as they compete for nutrients and moisture. This can result in “sucker canes” forming that produce no fruit. In order to bear the fruit for which they are intended, they need to be cared for by Another – and they need to “accept and welcome” that care. (Which of course, for raspberries is not difficult!) Jesus’ loving words are also challenging ones. Accepting that “apart from him we can do nothing” comes only from a humble and powerful transformation. It is a process of “dying” to what and who we thought we were – and “living” into what we really are – a beautiful part of God’s

creation – God’s garden. And Jesus illustrated and enabled that transformation in as graphic and provocative a way as possible – by literally dying as one of us and then just as literally rising as a transformed (resurrected) human being. Because God has gifted us with self-awareness, and Spirit-led insight, we are able to reflect on all aspects of our lives – our jobs, our families, our governing principles and moralities, our passions and our play-time. All of these are parts of our growth in God’s garden. All of these can potentially be sources of real life, and sources of disease and death. The crucified and risen Christ is God’s gift to us to help us live – together – and ultimately become who God intends us to be – for God and for each other. However, with our powers of self-awareness also comes self-doubt and questioning: What if I’ve got it wrong? What if I’m not in the right place in the “garden”? What if I’m taking in the wrong nutrients? To these fears and doubts Jesus speaks the reassuring words that we are actually subject to Another – the Gardener – who knows how to tend the Garden. “You did not choose me but I chose you. And I appointed you to go and bear fruit, fruit that will last.” (John 15: 16a)

I In an age of increased technology and busy lives, any opportunity

to relax and enjoy the company of others is likely welcomed.

that is certainly the hope of one christian church in the city as they prepare to host a Gospel Jamboree coffee house May 2 at 7 p.m. at 195 collegiate Street in Winnipeg.

“our hope is to reach the neighborhood by offering a coffee house with a twist,” explains the rev. canon Dr. Murray Still, incumbent of St. James Anglican church. “We have invited the national

Indigenous Anglican Bishop, Mark Macdonald, to join us and offer Gospel Based Discipleship (GBD).”

Dr. Still explained the GBD is a small group exercise that looks into the scriptures and gives the gathered community focus. “the whole exercise takes maybe a half hour or so, and will occur about mid way through the evening.”

Key to the evening will be the many who turn out to offer Gospel music that will witness to their faith. Fair trade coffee and

tea and bannock will be offered. While there is no attendance fee, there will be a free will offering. the emcee for the evening is the rev. Geoff Woodcroft.

St James is hosting the evening in cooperation with rupert’s Land Wechetowin Inc., a non-profit service agency that provides assistance to Indigenous people in hospitals, jails and missions.

St James hopes to offer the coffee house on a regular basis starting the fourth Saturday in September.

It was also a chance to take the Gospel message out of the church and into the streets. Parishioners of St Thomas processed through Weston district. Anglicans and Lutherans

at Grace/St John church walked in Carman. St Andrew’s people took their Palm Sunday procession out onto Portage Avenue in the Woodhaven district. St Saviour’s people, following their old custom, held a blessing of the palms and procession jointly with three other churches in the parking lot of a nearby strip mall. After a winter of taking shelter from the elements, it was a delight to get outside, see the neighbours and worship in public.

“..I was in prison and you visited me…….”

Christians have long b e e n r e m i n d e d by the parable of

the sheep and the goats in Matthew 25, that in striving to meet human needs, we come into the Divine Presence. With that in mind, many Anglicans and Lutherans whose lives have been impacted by prisons gathered together on March 20. Volunteers, professional caregivers, ex-offenders and families who have had someone ‘inside’ met at St. Mark’s Lutheran Church to give strength to one another and to remember these words of Jesus. In t e re s t ing l y, re cen t research shows that when those who are incarcerated are not abandoned by us but are befriended, they have a

better chance of succeeding in rehabilitation. So Matthew 25 proves to be practical wisdom as well as religious inspiration and duty. Perhaps we shouldn’t be surprised! The bishop of Rupert’s Land, Don Phillips, and the local ELCIC bishop, Elaine Sauer, were central to this joint Anglican-Lutheran event, reminding us that responding to need is at the heart of the mission and purpose of the Church. The evening began with music by “Billious Pond,” a band with links to St. Luke’s Zion Lutheran Church whose members visit weekly at Rockwood Prison. We were brought together by hearing and singing favourites of men ‘inside’. Band members interspersed

the music by telling some of their experiences there. The two bishops offered prayer and reflection on the parable in Matthew 25. Then we turned to breaking bread together. Wechetowin generously enabled the organizers of the event to provide a free meal for those in attendance, catered by Wolseley Family Place. A highlight of the evening was a panel moderated by Chaplaincy Coordinator B e r n i e M u l l i n s f r o m Manitoba Corrections. The panel included a mother of someone serving a prison sentence; an ex-offender; and member s o f four groups of Anglicans who do prison ministry. (We later learned that our host Lutheran Church also has

such a group.) All spoke movingly. They were joined at the end by Gaelene Askeland, the Executive Director of Initiatives for Just Communities, who described some of IJC’s programs and opportunities to take part in this type of ministry. After a short period of sharing in small groups, the two bishops closed the evening with reflections; some suggestion of Church support of those who have been in conflict with the law; and a blessing. It was an evening of hope, an evening in which “our

hearts burned within us” as we sensed the presence of Christ in the work and in all who live with this particular pain. Feedback after the evening ended suggested future directions. Our thanks go to Bishop Don and to ELCIC Bishop Elaine, who responded enthus ias t ica l ly to the suggestion of the gathering; to retired Lutheran prison chaplain Ken Kuhn who emceed the program; to the panel; to “Billious Pond;” to our host, St Mark’s Lutheran Church; to Wechetowin; and to all who took part.

Building on Synod 2010 – Making Paths in the Desert – we

come to preparations for Synod 2012, re-finding our “well” of living water in the sure hope that God is calling us forward into God’s plan for the Diocese of Rupert’s Land. On October 18 – 20, 2012, delegates, both lay and clergy, will come together to worship, sing, pray, listen, discuss, and make decisions which will set our Diocesan path for the next two years and beyond. We are excited that our Primate, Archbishop Fred Hiltz, will be present and will lead the daily Bible study. For some months now, the Synod Agenda Committee, ably chaired by Dr. June James, has been meeting to plan for this event. The Opening Service of Synod takes place at St John’s Cathedral on Thursday, October 18.The whole Diocesan family is

invited to attend. Friday and Saturday sessions happen at North Kildonan Mennonite Brethren Church (NKMB). Why not an Anglican parish, you may ask? Well, we do not have a parish with sufficient hall space to comfortably accommodate the approxi-mately 250 delegates and guests along with space for displays, voting, an office, and ample parking. NKMB welcomes us into their generous space – indeed they have more space than we actually need. Hospitality is a vital part of Synod. Delegates who are well “fed and watered” are better able to focus on the business at hand. While it would be great to have Anglican folk doing the catering, we have not found a parish willing and able to take on this responsibility. Diocesan volunteers will staff the kitchen, serving snacks and meals. We have

had good success in securing food requirements through local schools where food services is a component of their curriculum. Previous delegates may remember the delicious scones from Tech Voc Secondary School and the tasty sandwiches from Kildonan East Collegiate. Purchasing from sources such as these achieves two goals: healthy, tasty food at very reasonable prices; and, contribution to the learning of students. These sources have also been able to accommodate special dietary needs of our delegates. While Synod is primarily for parish clergy and elected lay delegates, observers are most welcome. Observers at the Friday and Saturday sessions are invited to register on arrival at NKMB and sit in the designated area of the hall. These folk are welcome to share in snacks and meals for a small fee.

As preparations for Synod continue, all members of the Diocese are encouraged to pray: • for those working on all

aspects of planning the Synod;

• for delegates as they peruse and discuss Synod

materials, preparing themselves for act ive participation;

• for our Bishop as he prepares his address to Synod.

We need your support to be open to the leading of the Spirit in these meetings.

nAncY PhilliPs

Much of our lives as Christians seems to be spent in the

posture of waiting. We wait during the season of Advent for the arrival of the gift of the Christ Child. We wait during the season of Lent as we move toward the events of Holy Week and Easter. The women waited with the body of Jesus, entombed in a cave. We wait with faithful anticipation for the risen Christ to reveal himself to us in the Easter moments of our lives. And we perpetually await the second coming of the Messiah. A period of waiting can seem long and dreary, full of excited anticipation, or even filled with dread. Yet a period of waiting can also be a time filled with possibility and an opportunity to reflect and prepare for what might lie ahead. The arrival of spring occurs after a long period of waiting through the winter

cold for the arrival of new buds, the fresh green of the grass and the possibility of new growth in my garden. Although my garden may be starting to bloom with new blossoms, the flowering process will take time to produce fruit. I can’t wait to get my first mouthful of sweet, juicy raspberries or see the colour and fragrance produced by the full bloom of the flowers. My impatience for this emergence of fruit is tempered by the anticipation of something new in the cycle of life and growth. Recently we received the happy news that our eldest son and his wife are expecting our first grandchild. I am excited at the possibility that this new life brings, but the time of waiting will seem long until I can hold that grandchild in my arms for the first time. This time of waiting for a young couple is also filled with many questions. They may wonder: Will the baby be healthy? Can we afford this baby? Will we be good parents? Will we be up to the daunting task of meeting a child’s physical, emotional and spiritual needs? Waiting used to seem to me to be such a useless time – the time in between the events that truly mattered. But I’m beginning to see that times of

waiting can be times of great richness. Learning to wait gracefully provides us with an opportunity to listen deeply for God’s voice, to discern what we are being called to and what God desires for us to learn. Times of waiting might be seen as opportunities for God to break through our normal routines and catch us in a posture of openness. Waiting may be seen as travelling through mystery. To be in a space of waiting upon God is to be in a space of not knowing. Being present to this mystery allows us the opportunity to engage in discernment. Wilkie Au, in his book The Discerning Heart, says “discernment cultivates our ability to stay with the discordant notes of our lives with alertness and sensitivity until we are able to grasp the theme of what God is about with us”. We can move beyond the automatic patterns of our behaviour and choose the possibility that comes with freedom. Waiting allows us to develop a self knowledge that highlights our peculiar history of grace – the unique ways in which God typically leads us and our history of temptation, or the idiosyn-cratic ways in which we are typically deceived and misled

when making important decisions. Discernment is not a rational process; it’s heartfelt. It begins in the body – in an infallible part of our brain – our gut brain. We need to listen to the messages of our bodies in order to uncover the gifts of freedom, independence and authen-ticity. A time of waiting is an opportunity to breathe; and breath puts us in touch with our gut brain, our body messages. Becoming aware of our breath at these times reminds us that the Holy Spirit is at work in the process of our own spirit.Times of waiting provide space to listen to the Holy Spirit. Sometimes waiting is a time of suffering – wisdom may come through suffering. Wisdom is the fruit of observation and reflection. As we dwell with experiences of love and labour, success and failure, we glean the lessons embedded there. We need to make a positive commitment to be still in the midst of a painful situation until we understand what is going on. Our attitude determines whether we will be enriched

or depleted by waiting. We may be tempted to jump too quickly to the next situation before we have gathered the wisdom we need, or we may run back to the situation from which we’ve just emerged because the solid ground of familiarity may seem safer. When we move too quickly through a life situation, we may lose the inside information that the heart can provide. This strips us of the ability to direct our lives according to the interior movements of God and subjects us to the manipulation of exterior forces. St Iranaeus reminds us of the true blessing of waiting upon God:

Our lives come from the hands of a gracious God who couples the gift of life with a call to be co-creators, to freely fashion our

lives into something beautiful for God and a blessing for others.

May your times of waiting be a rich experience of growing the fruit of being something beautiful for God.

8 Rupert’s land news May 2012PARish life

There may be folks who think we have a new minister, Rev

Helen Kennedy, but on Mar 15 our parish was the site of the wedding of our minister, Helen Manfield and Stephen Kennedy. The ceremony was performed by her good friend, Rev Jamie Howison. Helen was escorted down the aisle by Rev Canon Bob Webster, who has been like a father to her since she arrived at St George's.

S t G e o rg e ' s G a rd e n Centre's 24th season starts on Saturday, May 12 at Regent Park shopping centre (Regent and Brewster): bedding plants, hanging planters, perennials, vegetables, bagged soil, seeds and gift certificates available. We will be setting up May 8 to 11 and we plan to stay open till mid June. From 8:30 am to 6 pm Saturdays and Sundays and from 10 am to 7:30 pm weekdays.

The Rupert's Land O r p h a n ' s F u n d received thank-you

l e t t e r s f rom Ug andan children who have been helped by the fund. Enod Lujuago, for example, wrote:

"I have nice shoes books and pencils. Thank you sir." James Kuggundo wrote: "I live with my grandmother. I have new shoes books lunch. Thank you very much."

On Saturday, March 3, the incoming Corporation and

Vestry members of St Peter’s met for an orientation led by the Rev. Canon Donna Joy. After an opening prayer, some team-building exercises and a review of the coming year’s parish goals, the labyrinth was introduced as a spiritual exercise. The walk that followed on this sacred path marked the beginning of a new year of ministry. E x p e r i e n c e s v a r i e d . For some it was a time of unexpected insight: “I finally get it ….. the difference between a labyrinth and the confusion of a maze. This is another way of grounding us

in our faith.” Fo r o t h e r s , “ I t w a s meaningful to share this walk with our leadership team”; for some it was a first experience; for others, “I found it really tough”. For all it was a chance to experience St Peter’s labyrinth together. On Friday, March 9, confirmation candidates and their mentors met for a ‘make your own pizza’ dinner followed by an introduction to the labyrinth. They had requested this experience after learning about different types o f sp i r i tua l and meditative practices in our Christian faith. The walk that followed was done with great reverence.

For most of the confirmands and some of the mentors walking the labyrinth was a new experience. Following the walk some expressed how peaceful it had felt; many were surprised to learn that the earliest known Christian labyrinth had been laid in the floor of a basilica in Algeria in 324 AD. Some wished they could keep forever the feeling they had in the centre. Some felt that they would like to attend a regular Thursday evening walk occasionally. All were pleased to have learned a bit about the labyrinth and in particular, our labyrinths at St Peter’s, both indoor and outdoor.
