THE GREAT FIFTY DAYS OF EASTER

Letter from the Rector

Dear Reader:

The rainbow and the dove are both powerful symbols of God’s faithfulness. The catacombs outside Rome, where early Christians assembled secretly to celebrate the Eucharist, still contain a crude drawing of Noah and the ark. And as you know, the dove also appears at the baptism of Jesus. It descended from heaven as an image of the Holy Spirit and anointed Jesus as the Christ, or Messiah.

This photo featuring a double rainbow and a dove hangs at the back of the church. It was taken in Carmel Valley by Bob Nielsen. It makes a beautiful image of the promise that God fulfilled at Easter. As Easter people we participate in creation renewed by forgiveness and energized by hope.

May you encounter this forgiveness and embrace this hope in new ways during the Great Fifty Days of Easter.

Happy Easter,

Vestry News VESTRY NEWSBy Susan Sonnthal

We are happy to report that we have been working very hard for you. Since our first meeting, a retreat held all day Saturday January 31 and Sunday Feb 1, we have met five more times, for more than three hours at a time! Since it is a first-time vestry experience for half of our members, we have been on a giant learning curve. Besides attending to the customary business of the parish, we have been actively engaged in helping the search committees find suitable candidates for the part-time positions of Parish Administrator, Communications Coordinator, and Camp Caretaker and Host. Additionally, we've attended a diocese vestry/treasurer workshop.

We INVITE you to attend our next vestry meeting, on Thursday, May 1 at 7:00 PM in the library.In addition to day-to-day business, URGENT concerns the vestry has identified for discussion are:

1. Developing a means of engaging the congregation in communicating their concerns, needs and desires.

2. Re-examining the organizational structure of our congregation. We are beginning this process by examining our articles of incorporation, bylaws, and personnel policy, to ensure they do not conflict with Federal and State civil laws, National or Diocesan Church canons.

3. Buildings and Grounds Committee recommendations for the chalet.

We ask you to please contact any of your vestry to voice your opinions and concerns. They may be reached by

leaving a message with the parish administrator to be put in their office mailbox, or contact them directly at the address/phone contact provided here.

AND NOT A DROP WAS WASTEDBy Robert Nielsen

In the dark I kept my VigilEaster Week, Thursday night,first day of my retirement.

I’d volunteered to go to the baptistry, prayhalf an hour by the Host and Wineconsecrated for use, Holy Week.

There on the altar, lit by a candle and the moonstreaming down through stained glasshighlighting on the wall a bas reliefcarved in redwood, holy couple, mother and son.

Before me, as I knelt on a cushion was a book on a stand, opened to a psalmred ribbons lying along the text.

A priest came by, genuflected stood up, moved forward, removed the stopper from the vessel holding the Wine.

Inserted a funnel, silverpoured in more, from a decanterperhaps from services earlier in the day.

Then, finished, removed the funnelstoppered the vessel, stepped back, kneltmade the sign of the cross.

And not a drop was wasted, I said softly.

He paused, put his hand on my shoulderAmen, he saidAmen, I replied.

He stood, turnedwalked back into the darkness.

I resumed my meditationwords of the psalm before me stillcandle burning, moon washing the bas relief...the altar...me.

Love, not wasted that night...or ever.

Love, precious, consecrated, sacred.

CREATE IN ME A CLEAN HEART, O GOD, AND RENEW A RIGHT SPIRIT WITHIN USBy Rev. Rick Matters

This beautiful verse from Psalm 51 was our Lenten prayer. The one change to the text is the final word, because using “us” instead of “me” hastens that renewal of spirit and purity of heart for which we pray. This is because there is no isolated self. We were born into myriad relationships. We received a language, inherited values, and were grafted into allegiances. Ultimately, each of us is a gift from God mediated through history, geography, and relationships, and then set free to love.

Generation to GenerationOver the bed in the rectory guest room hangs a picture of my Swiss ancestors, taken mid-nineteenth century. One of the boys in that photo emigrated to America and fathered my grandmother. Her Swiss-American identity was shaped by events like the Great Depression. Her daughter’s generation was changed forever by the Second World War. My father returned from Europe a very different person, having participated in the liberation of a concentration camp. Such generational forces formed me, as such forces shape each of us.

The One and the ManyIn a very real sense our personal wellbeing is linked to others. This integration of the individual and the group is the very reason that Jesus called disciples to follow him. They responded indi-vidually, and at once became part of his personal fellowship. This integration is also why the Church baptizes new members during the Sunday Eucharist, when the family of believers is assembled. We are baptized individually into the one Body of Christ. There is no true individual self apart from community, and there is no true community if members are not differentiated as individuals. Without well-defined selves, a community regresses into a group influenced by one dominant person, whether a parent

or a gang leader.

What is a Clean Heart?It might help to understand what the psalmist meant by a clean heart. It might sound as if we’re asking for moral perfection, or for pure emotions, both of which are impossible to attain. In the Hebrew world of Abraham and Jesus, the heart was considered to be the seat of reason and volition. Emotions resided in one’s stomach. So a clean heart means having pure motives. When asking for a clean heart, we are asking God to align our intentions and goals, our purpose and values, with those of Jesus Christ. We are seeking to know and love God with all our heart.

What is a Right Spirit?God’s Spirit is the right spirit. The Holy Spirit does dwell in each of us, but even more powerfully the Spirit moves within our community of faith. We ask God always to renew the Spirit within us, so that other people will yearn to become Christians through the example of our love.

God’s Answer to Our PrayerAt a deeper level, the wellbeing of All Saints’ is the means by which God creates clean hearts in its individual members. The spiritual vitality and relational health of All Saints’ open each of our hearts to God’s pure values and purpose. The corollary is equally true: our individual responses and faithful postures renew a right spirit within the community of All Saints’. Your vestry and I are drafting a covenant

of behavior based on our core values for our community.

God creates a clean heart within each of us and renews a right spirit in our community as we love other

people and worship God. We are each a gift from God to ourselves and to each other. Each loving encounter with a stranger deepens our self, enriches our heart, and renews our collective spirit. St. Augustine used the image of the congregation as loaf of communion bread changed into the Body of Christ and broken open for the sake of the world. We can extend Augustine’s

We are each a gift from God to ourselves and

to each other

MATT AND JULIE AULENTA If you have ever wondered who the beautiful (and loud) baby boy in the back of the Church with the two harried parents is, wonder no more. That is Hayden Aulenta and his parents Matt and Julie. Matt, an attorney, and Julie, the Human Resources Director at the Boys & Girls Clubs of Monterey County, are longtime residents of the Monterey Peninsula. While always maintaining a relationship with God and visiting various churches in the area, it was only upon Hayden’s birth that they truly understood the importance of finding a Church to call home. From their first conversation with Father Rick about having Hayden baptized, it has become clear to them that All Saints’ is the perfect Church for them and their growing family.

The Aulentas greatly enjoy all that All Saints’ has to offer, and look forward to getting more involved as their schedules allow. Lest there be any concern that Hayden will be quieting down soon, the Aulentas are also proud to announce that come August there will be a new little bundle making his or her presence known from the back of the Church.

TRANSFORMATIONBy Bill Reed

A theme of Easter is transformation, transformation from the old self to the new self in Christ, more and more united to God. Transformation and union are correlative. Our transformation in Christ means union with God.

There are few spiritual teachers in the Christian tradition better suited to instruct us about transformation and communion with God than St Teresa of Avila, the sixteenth century Spanish reformer of the Church. Among her classics, the greatest is “The Interior Castle.” In Chapter Two of the Fifth Mansion, Teresa describes the death of the old self with her now famous comparison to the silkworm, that dies spinning its cocoon and is reborn as a beautiful butterfly. “Look at the difference there is between an ugly worm and a little white butterfly!” Teresa notes that the work of transformation is essentially God’s work by the Holy Spirit operating in us, but we must cooperate with His grace, by spinning our cocoons.

“Therefore, take courage! Let’s be quick to do this work and weave this little cocoon by taking away our self-love and self-will, our attachment to earthly things, and by performing deeds of repentance, prayer, self-denial, obedience...Let it die; let this silkworm die, as it does in completing what it was created to do! And you will see how we see God, as well as ourselves, placed inside His Grandeur, as is this little silkworm within its cocoon...truly dead to the world, a little white butterfly comes forth. Oh, the greatness of God!”

Teresa is rightly praised for taking the deepest mysteries of unity with God and translating them into the homeliest, simple, most charming images. From beginning to end, this transformation is the work of God, but God the Creator has chosen to make our work His work and work we must, like the silkworm weaving its cocoon. As the silkworm dies to be reborn,

it is indeed “completing what it was created to do.” The notion is key to Teresa’s idea of transformation and union with God. We were created for one purpose and one purpose alone. The other purposes pale. It is central that we complete our creation, as the Creator wills and enables, by coming to Him with the offering of our whole heart and soul and being. By removing the obstacles to union with Him, we cooperate with the Holy Spirit’s activity of emptying self and filling us with all the fullness of God. The purpose of creation is re-creation, where the image of God, damaged by the darkness of sin, is renewed in the likeness of Christ, giving us access to the full light of God. “We shall see God as well as ourselves, place inside His Grandeur...Oh, the greatness of God!”

Teresa explains that this death, as the silkworm spins its cocoon, means “taking away our self-love and self-will.” There is no question here of legitimate self-love,

but instead the self-love and self-will that opposes itself to God’s Will, Who loves us. In order to complete our transformation and union with Christ, let us take the opportunity of Easter and examine our hearts to find in ourselves the obstacles to this union. Where do self-love and self-will interpose to separate us from our neighbor and God (which for the New Testament is the same thing)? We need to root out, wherever we

find them, hatred, jealousy, anger, envy, impatience, violence, meanness. We complete our creation, in communion with the Creator, when we remove the seeds of destruction, buried deep in our old selves, and let the seeds of recreation grow: love, joy, peace, kindness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. mercy and forgiveness. “Let it die; let this silkworm die, as it does in completing what it was created to do.”

Teresa encourages us to embrace this new creature in Christ, which we are, and benefit from a “new treasure. We no longer have any esteem for the works we did while a worm...we now have wings. How can we be happy walking step by step when we can fly?”

From beginning to end, this transformation is

the work of God, but God the Creator has chosen to make our work His

work and work we must, like the silkworm

weaving its cocoon.

LIFE TOGETHER By Dietrich Bonhoeffer

Join in a congregation-wide reading of this popular (and non-scholarly) book.

Sign the covenant to read Life Together with fellow parishioners by e-mailing your intention to information@allsaintscarmel.org or by signing the covenant.

Read Chapter One (about thirty-five pages) in May and June. We’ll hold optional discussions on June 1 and 22, and read the remaining chapters in the Fall and beyond.

Yes, we have wings and we can fly, as the butterfly emerges from the cocoon, and we are transformed in communion with God to enjoy the fruits and delights of that communion, the “new treasure,” which He gives. We shall come to enjoy an unutterable happiness and joy in God, that we cannot imagine, which will further include communion with each and every man and woman made in His image and communion with His creation, which reflects universally and singly in every existent thing His Glory. Even evil, suffering, and death become increasingly transparent to the light of God, as He redeems them. Teresa alerts us to the deepest possibilities of Easter, as the time to be transformed, more and more, and seek a fuller communion with God through Christ. The Holy Spirit urges us on to complete the work of spiritual death and resurrection, that His creative purposes may be fulfilled in us. Like the silkworm, we can become the butterfly and fly, as we were created to fly, or remain a worm. “Well, see here and marvel, children, what we can do through the help of God!”

THOUGHTS ON DISCIPLESHIPBy Frank Graham

Our mission statement declares that we are Disciples Glorifying Christ and Serving Others. What is a disciple? A disciple is a learner - a student - an apprentice. A disciple is separate from an apostle

who is a messenger. A Disciple is one who learns from a teacher and an apostle is one sent to deliver those teachings.

Much is written about lifelong learning. We are called to be lifelong learners of Jesus.

In college I was introduced to Dietrich Bonhoeffer’s book: The Cost of Discipleship. In his introduction, Bonhoeffer states: “In the last resort, what we want to know is not, what would this or that man, or this or that Church, have of us, but what Jesus Christ himself wants of us.”

What is Jesus trying to teach us at All Saints’? What is our message to each other and the world? When all is said and done, what really matters? I write this not as someone who knows but rather someone who wants to learn.

Bonhoeffer’s challenge...“Let us try to get away from the poverty and pettiness of our own little convictions and problems, and see the wealth and splendor which are vouchsafed to us in Jesus Christ.”

I need and want to be a better disciple. This is challenging with so many distractions, worldly concerns and personal pathology. I come to All Saints’ to learn with you. Thank you for being here.

YOUTH MISSION!

There are two exciting mission trips planned this summer for All Saints’ Youth! Three youth group members: Grace Sizemore, Rachael Sizemore, and Maia Medina, will be going on the Sierra Service Project (SSP) high school trip to the Navajo Nation in Arizona, where they will work on home repair projects, learn about Navajo culture, and experience the joy of serving. SSP is our annual diocesan youth mission trip, which All Saints’ has participated in for a number of years.

There will also be an international mission trip this summer to El Salvador! Grace Sizemore will be traveling with a group of youth from our diocese on a cultural exchange with the Cristosal School for Global Engagement. Youth from El Camino Real will join with a group of youth from El Salvador. Together, in both travel and a retreat, they will discuss and learn about vocation and how to make a difference in the world. They will visit some of the pilgrimage sites and learn about the martyrs of El Salvador. Cristosal is an innovative Episcopal non-profit organization that supports development work, using a human-rights based approach.

The youth need to raise a total of $2,880 in order to go on both of these mission trips. Please give generously to this project. Mission is a life-changing experience for the youth, and is an inspiration for the Parish.

PERSONAL LIFE GOALSBy Rev. Rick Matters

One of the exercises I undertook while on my sabbatical retreat was to write my personal life goals. Such goals help frame one’s life and can guide decisions. Easter makes a good time to write personal goals. Feel free to contact me if you would like help getting started. Here are my life goals:

1. To be guided and formed by the worship, teaching, and presence of the crucified and risen Jesus Christ.2. To welcome and respect each person as bearing the image of Christ3. To participate in a life-long dynamic of formation, maturation, and healing4. To lovingly serve others, and to strive for social justice

YOUTH MINISTRY!By Robin Denney

I am excited to transition leadership of the youth group, to a truly gifted youth leader, Jennifer Suttie, whom I have been working alongside for several months. Jennifer, in that short time, has already grown our acolyte program and youth group, and brings a host of gifts and enthusiasm. Jennifer, and her daughter Andi Jo, are members at All Saints’. Andi Jo is a member of the youth group, acolyte, and helps teach Godly Play.

We have six regular participants in youth group and many other youth engaged in some way in the Parish. Besides our weekly meetings, we also have special social gatherings, retreats, and mission opportunities. Jennifer will be looking at moving the time of youth group to the evening on Sundays. Please get in contact with her if you have any suggestions for how your youth would like to get engaged, or if you have any gifts to offer the youth ministry: in terms of your time and talent as a volunteer youth mentor, or donations of stuff, space, adventures, or financial resources.

ST. PATRICK’S, HAITIBy Rosemary Smith

Thank you for your gracious welcome to Fr. Lazard during his visit to All Saints’. His gentle, dignified manner and warm smile make St. Patrick’s School more personal. Keep Fr. Lazard and the 200 students at the school in your prayers.

The support in the form of offerings received after Fr. Lazard’s visit are heartwarming and life-changing. The children, their teachers, and their parents give praise, thanksgiving and gratitude. The donations and proceeds from coffee sales go to teachers’ salaries. We are also hoping to pay for a museum field trip

for the teachers and the sixth grade students.

FOOD BOXESBy Hans Lehman

Once again the Outreach Commission and numerous volunteers packed 96 Easter food boxes. 96 may not seem like a large number, but when you consider that we first have to pick up empty cartons from Cardinale movers in Castroville, and then Raul has to make three or four truck-filled trips to the food bank and Grocery Outlet, and then we need to purchase additional food from Save Mart, and then many volunteers sort the food in Seccombe Hall, as well as tape the folded cartons, and then a beehive of boy scouts and their dads pack all the food into the cartons and place them against the wall, and we realize we have spent $2,000. It’s a big job.

And that is only the beginning. Later, Epiphany comes to pick up 50 filled cartons, Nancy (Costello’s) project picks up another 35, 8 go to Big Sur, and 3 stay at All Saints’. Then these must get delivered to those in need. You get some inkling of the work involved. Betty Kasson said it all: “Please convey the thanks from Nancy’s Project to all who worked packing them. Thank you so much for your generosity. You will make Easter so much more joyous in the farm worker community!”

THE AWESOME-FACTORBy Rev. Rick Matters

During my recent sabbatical retreat, I recognized that my prayers were laced with anxiety. Then a comment by a young adult came to mind; he said, “I’m an awesome person.” So I began to use the “awesome-factor” to orient my prayers in the judgment of God’s grace. What a difference it makes to pray, for instance, for my awesome mother.

Now each day I use the awesome-factor when praying for family, friends, events and ministries, and our vestry and staff. I commend this practice to you, and I pray for your awesome self, and covet your prayers for my awesome self. For when more than at Easter do we know we’re prejudged by Jesus Christ, and are thus set free of fear and anger. Jesus summons us to judge others as we are judged, by God’s grace and love.

THE SEARCH FOR THE ADMINISTRATION COORDINATOR AND THE COMMUNICATIONS SPECIALISTBy Bill Mattmiller

Your Vestry search team made up of Julie Aulenta, Al Alvarez, Bill Mattmiller and Father Rick has been busy. We have not found the right Administration person yet; one very good interview out of four done and one disappointment; five more on call and a total of over thirty responses for the Administration job. We have held back on interviews for the Communications position until we choose the administrator. More than half of the communications applications have degrees in communication and with the over ten applications that came in we are sure to find the right person. In the mean time our part time temporary administrator, Stephanie, is doing a fine job putting things together for her replacement and handling the day to day work.

Her mother is the administrator for the Day School. Stephanie is going to MIIS in June for her graduate degree. The Vestry approved the contract for a temporary professional PR and communications specialist to help get the Easter communications going and guide us into the job for the next hire. She has also applied for the job and the search group will consider her with the other qualified applicants. Julie Aulenta is a professional HR person and has designed our interview process, questionnaire and ratings grid. If you have any questions or suggestions, please call Stephanie in the office, email Information@AllSaints or talk to Al, Julie, Fr. Rick or Bill at coffee hour.
