Father Mark Becher, ErikaSears and I visited the Mis-sionary Diocese of Nu-eva Granada and Bishop
Germán Orrego-Hurtado from July12-22. During the visit I formallyenthroned and installed BishopOrrego in his diocese on July 13 atthe Ermita (Chapel) de NuestraSeñora, Pereira. Bishop Orrego andhis U.S. guests also made ecumeni-cal calls and visited diocesan clergy, missions, and human-itarian ministries run by the MDNG in the cities of Pereira,Manizales and Cali. A projected visit to the more distantcity of Medellín was cancelled due to a strike and consequentdisruption of road traffic. As two ordinations were sched-uled in Medellin for the 21st, Bishop Orrego flew toMedellín for the ordinations there, while I remained inPereira to perform a third ordination on Bishop Orrego’sbehalf.
On July 16 an ACC party of 14 called on the Most Rev-erend Gonzálo Restrepo, the Roman Catholic Archbishopof Manizales at the archiepiscopal palace in the center of thecity. During the hour-long meeting I briefly outlined thehistory of the ACC and its reasons for separation from theCanterbury Communion. Next, at the request of ArchbishopRestrepo, the Colombian clergy and laity described their pas-toral work. Throughout the visit Archbishop Restrepo wasnotably cordial. Happily, for the last three years there havebeen good relations between the Roman Catholic and An-glican Catholic Churches in Colombia, particularly on thehierarchical level. A similar visit with the Roman CatholicArchbishop of Medellín was scheduled, but had to be can-celled along with the rest of that leg of my projected trav-el. However, Bishop Orrego and I were able to visit FatherCristostomo, the Greek Orthodox priest in Pereira and anold friend of Bishop Orrego’s.
Since Bishop Orrego’s consecration in 2010, I have for-warded all enquiries from Latin America concerning theACC to him. On July 21 in Pereira one of those contactsbore fruit when on behalf of Bishop Orrego I receivedFather Edgardo Manuel Oyarzo Vargas, formerly of theEpiscopal Church of Chile, and conditionally ordainedhim. Upon his return to Chile Father Edgardo will beginan ACC presence there. Three priests from Cuba are alsoexpected to join the ACC soon after appropriate interviewsand investigation. As of July 14 I have appointed BishopOrrego formally to serve as my Commissary for Latin Amer-ica. This appointment will allow Bishop Orrego to overseedevelopments in Latin America even outside the boundariesof his own diocese, which consists of Colombia, Venezuela,Ecuador, Peru, Panama and the Antilles.
On July 14, after Father Becher celebrated Mass in Spanishat the chapel of Nuestra Señora, Pereira, a large party droveabout 30 minutes to the neighborhood of La Siria whereFather Jairo Betancourt and his congregation were await-ing us. After opening greetings, the first three bricks for achurch building were placed and mortared by me, BishopOrrego, and Father Jairo. I was pleased afterwards to meeta mother and daughter from Marietta, Georgia, who werevisiting family in La Siria and Pereira. Small world! Later
on the same day we met the enthusiastic congregation ofCristo del Perdòn in the La Unidad neighborhood of Pereiraalong with their priest, Father Alexander Arana, and theirformer rector, Father Manuel Martínez (who also openedhis home to us during the entire stay).
The most notable features of the MDNG’s current lifein Colombia are the high quality of our clergy and of theirpastoral ministries. Virtually all of the priests have a classi-cal priestly formation, including undergraduate degrees inphilosophy and three years of theological study. Most alsohave at least one other advanced degree. Many work as uni-versity or seminary professors, teachers, lawyers, psycholo-gists or in similar professional capacities. Colombia does nothave a social security system for the elderly, some of whomend on the streets and in profound want. In Pereira FatherJulio César Bolívar, in addition to his mission of NuestraSeñora de Veracruz, directs two homes caring for about 25indigent elders. Mr. Leonardo Villa Salazar assists FatherBolívar and runs a citywide recycling program to help tofund the old-age homes. Father Bolívar’s reputation in thecity is excellent, as is evident from the businesses and pro-fessionals who contribute to his work and seek out his coun-sel. Father Becher accompanied Leo Villa and Father Bolívarone day on the recycling pickup rounds and saw personal-ly the extent of their involvement in and admiration fromthe community. I also called upon a number of local busi-nessmen and professionals who support the ACC’s human-itarian work to thank them for their assistance. These vis-its included a tour of Villegas & Company, a large coffeeexporter headquartered in Pereira. Father Bolívar is chap-lain to the Villegas plant. Other benefactors, the JaimeMartínez family, kindly provided a large van for the 10-dayvisit: their business is coincidently named “Metropolitana,”so the Metropolitan was driven about in a van brightlylabeled with his office title!
In addition to old-age homes, and at the other end of theage spectrum, the ACC in several places runs programs forindigent and abused children. In Manizales Fathers JulioRicardo Sánchez and his wife, Gloria, run a feeding programfor poor and special needs children at a local public school.The Church provides the children a meal during the schoolday and helps with other costs such as uniforms. Each childis assigned a mentor from the ACC mission of San Agustínor from the school staff, and receives personal attention. Forabout $25 a month from a donor, each child is given per-haps the only meal they will get during the day along withthe care and interest of a responsible adult. The childrenattend the mission on Sundays and receive catechesis. Theprogram is so well respected that the school provides the mis-sion a building for use as a chapel as well as a lunch roomfor the feeding program. Father José Fernando Chavarriaga,an attorney and the diocesan chancellor, also serves SanAgustín.
Also in Manizales Father Gerardo Reinoso provides chap-lain services and other assistance to a nursing and assistedliving home for the elderly, which the visitors toured, andis rector of the Mission of San Juan Bosco. Father CésarRodríguez also joined the clergy from the U.S. and Pereirain their visit to Manizales.
In Cali we visited the congregation of Nuestra Señora deGuadalupe in the very poor neighborhood of CampoMontebello on July 17. Then we toured the ICU of the largehospital of Santillana, whose handsome chapel provides thevenue for another ACC mission. Fathers José Daniel Penagos,José Eleano Arias and Guillermo Fernández, serve as chap-lains to Santillana and another nearby hospital and alsolead four congregations in the Cali area.
In addition to Pereira, Manizales and Cali, the ACC nowalso has congregations and social service ministries in thebeautiful colonial city and tourist site of Cartagena, in thecapital of Bogotá, in the coastal city of Barranquilla, in thecultural and commercial center of Medellín, and elsewhere.ACC work has expanded significantly since my last visit in2010, and Bishop Germán and his priests promised that onmy next visit it would be much larger still. Indeed the en-thusiasm and momentum of the clergy and people are pal-pable, and my visit included meetings with several seminar-ians and clergy interested in joining us.
Although we were unable to travel by road to Medellín,Bishop Orrego, as noted above, flew there for the weekendof July 19-21. In addition to visiting ACC missions, theCommunity of the Good Shepherd, and ACC humanitar-ian ministries, Bishop Orrego ordained one deacon and

LETTERS
‘EXTREME’ IS TOO EXTREMEYour caricature of the Free Church of England [THE-
TRINITARIAN, July-August 2013] as “an extreme Evan-gelical Church” was unfortunate and definitely a mischar-acterized editorial statement. You need to read The FreeChurch of England by the Rt. Rev. Dr. John Fenwick (pro-nounced Fennick). Bishop Fenwick taught at Trinity College,Bristol and was assistant to the Archbishop of Canterburybefore becoming a bishop.
Had you said “Evangelical Church,” it would have beena true statement. The addition of the word “extreme” sadlymischaracterizes the FCE and leaves the wrong impression
with your readers. The FCE is definitely not extreme.(The Rev.) Robert BowmanAll Saints’ Anglican Church (ACA)Fountain Valley, California, U.S.A.
NOT WHOLLY SATANICMy letter printed [THETRINITARIAN, July-August
2013] concerning Presiding Bishop Jefferts Schori of theEpiscopal Church contained an error of fact. While I do notretract the basic point of my letter, I would like to correctthe mistaken statement, which was based on a since-delet-ed Internet report from which I gleaned the information.In particular Dr. Jefferts Schori did not state in the sermonin question that all of St. Paul’s writings were Satanic. Shecriticized St. Paul for casting out a demon — which seemsto put her on the side of the demons. But she did not char-acterize the whole of St. Paul’s writings as Satanic.

REMINISCENCE
JOHN OMWAKE RECALLS ‘FATHER MAC,’ A CIRCUIT-RIDING PRIEST
Nowadays few remember the Rev.A.Fraser MacCammond, affec-tionately known as “Father Mac.”And that’s a pity.
States and founded or nurtured nearly every ACC parishin western Virginia.
I first became acquainted with him in January 1973. Iwas a delegate to the annual Council (read Synod) of theEpiscopal Diocese of Southwestern Virginia, at which themain issue was women’s ordination. The bishop was for it,so were most of the clergy, including my rector.
I had the year before come back into the Church follow-ing a time of unbelief that began in college, and the con-cept of ordaining women to the priesthood was new to me.Viewed only as an issue of fairness, it seemed reasonable.But then a tall, well set-up priest with white Lincoln-stylechin whiskers got up to argue otherwise.
Father Mac stuck out like the proverbial sore thumb, andnot just because of his size. He called himself “Father” whilenearly all other clergy present were happy with just plain“Mister.” In a diocese where Morning Prayer at 11 a.m. withHoly Communion on the first Sunday of the month wasthen the rule, his parish (St. Thomas’, Christiansburg,Virginia) had the Eucharist as the main service on everySunday. Almost alone in the diocese, there the Catholic faithwas proclaimed and observed.
Father Mac argued (persuasively to me, if not to the restof the delegates) that to ordain women would not only dis-own two thousand years of tradition but would also negatethe very meaning of the threefold apostolic ministry and therelationship of the priest to his congregation. He lost theargument, and the Council voted overwhelmingly to endorsethe ordination of women. But, unbeknownst to him at thetime, a seed was planted in my mind.
Flash forward five years. In 1976, the Episcopal Churchvoted to ordain women to the priesthood and the episco-pate. The following year, the St. Louis Congress led to theformation of what became known as the Anglican CatholicChurch. I was by then working as an editor at a newspaperin Kingsport, Tennessee. My schedule did not allow me togo to St. Louis, but by then, thanks to such stalwarts in thefaith as Father Mac, my thinking had evolved to where Iwas wholly in sympathy with the aims of the Congress.
Continuing churches had sprouted up all around theUnited States, but none within driving distance of Kingsport.So I patiently waited, meantime reading Morning andEvening Prayer daily.
Now back to Father Mac: He retired from St. Thomasin 1974 but continued as chaplain at a local hospital. Butthe St. Louis Congress propelled him back into active min-istry. And, despite uncertain health (a heart condition madeno better by a heavy smoking habit), he plunged into it withboth feet. On Epiphany 1978 he was among a handful ofpriests and layfolk who proclaimed the foundation of theDiocese of the Mid-Atlantic States. He served on its origi-nal standing committee.
At the parochial level his influence was more keenly felt.In early 1978, in a hotel meeting room in Blacksburg, Vir-ginia, the parish of St. Peter’s came into being, with FatherMac as its founding priest. But he didn’t stop there. He tend-ed to the faithful of St. Stephen’s, Clifton Forge, Virginiawhile they were without a resident priest following thedeath, while vesting for Holy Communion, of their long-
pily became Good Shepherd’s newest communicant. (And,unlike most Continuers, I was actually transferred frommy former Episcopalian parish, but that’s a story for anoth-er day.)
In time Good Shepherd called Father Mac as its first rec-tor, and he and his wife, Dorothy, moved from Christians-burg to Abingdon. Meantime, his load had lightened. InSeptember 1978, his successor in Christiansburg, Father(later Bishop) Harry B. Scott III, and a large number of hisparishioners left St. Thomas’ to join St. Peter’s, by thenrelocated from Blacksburg to Christiansburg. Father Scottbecame its rector, freeing up Father Mac to concentratemore on the Abingdon parish. Later, the parish in CliftonForge got its own priest, and Father Mac’s circuit-riding daysseemed to be over.
But they weren’t. A move, of which I was a part, beganto establish a parish in Kingsport, and Father Mac was onthe road again. He split his time between Good Shepherdand St. Andrew’s, as the Kingsport parish was named. Andhis evangelizing didn’t stop there. He was instrumental inthe founding of a (sadly ephemeral) mission in Knoxville,Tennessee. If the literal two or three were gathered togeth-er and wanted the sacraments, he was happy to provide them.“Have altar, will travel” was how he put it.
Father Mac was not a doctor of the Church. He neverclaimed to be one. He’d received the call in midlife, attend-ed the Episcopal Theological Seminary in Kentucky, and atthe age of 50 was ordained a priest. He knew enough andwhat he knew he knew and expressed well. His sermons,though not learned discourses, were nonetheless effective:simple and direct. They resonated with his listeners. Hetaught, and what he taught was the faith once delivered tothe saints. With his jovial, outgoing personality and a keenpastoral sense, he got on well with his flock, and broughtpeople to church. Both Good Shepherd and St. Andrew’sgrew, with communicant strength of both approaching (andsometimes exceeding) 40. He was proud of his Scottishheritage, and on St. Andrew’s Day (and any other occasionhe could think of ) he wore the tartan of the Fraser clan. Heenjoyed Scotch on the rocks, but never to excess.
It was not to last. A weak heart and years of smokingcaught up with him. In June 1981 he went into the hospi-tal, and the following month the Lord he served so well calledhim home.
What was his legacy? Like most, it is mixed. Without hisleadership, neither Good Shepherd nor St. Andrew’s real-ized their early potential. A disastrous subsequent rectorshipsent St. Andrew’s into a downward spiral from which it neverrecovered. After years of struggle, it gave up the ghost in2003. Good Shepherd fared better, and, though small, it con-tinues to proclaim the faith in southwestern Virginia. Despiteups and downs, both St. Peter’s in Christiansburg and St.Stephen’s in Clifton Forge endure, and in reasonable shapetoo.
Today, Father Mac is an almost forgotten figure, even inthe diocese he served so well. A generation of clergy and laityhas grown up hardly ever hearing his name. Too bad. Hewas not afraid to sing the Lord’s song in a strange land, tospread God’s word throughout the world (at least the worldof western Virginia). Many of today’s clergy would do wellto think upon the work he did and endeavor to follow hisgood example.
Mr. Omwake is the editor of THETRINITARIAN. Heis, and has been for a number of years, a communicant of St.Peter the Apostle, Christiansburg, Virginia, one of the parish-es founded by Father MacCammond.
time rector. And he answered the call of the faithful inAbingdon, Virginia (some 40 miles northeast of Kingsport)by serving the newly formed Church of the Good Shepherdas their priest-in-charge.
That’s where my story and that of Father Mac converged.I saw a brief article in a Roanoke newspaper reporting theestablishment of Good Shepherd and contacted Father Macfor more information. He told me that he would be thereon the following Sunday to celebrate the Eucharist andinvited me to come.
I did. Father Mac greeted me warmly, as did members ofthe congregation, which comprised all age groups. Theliturgy, celebrated with a reverence that was fast disappear-ing in the Episcopal Church, could best be described as“Prayer Book Catholic”: the Gloria at the beginning, theBenedictus qui venit in addition to the Sanctus and some addi-tional salutations, but basically the 1928 rite without exces-sive add-ons and enrichments. The sermon was based onthe gospel reading and was not the mishmash of “I’m O.K.,You’re O.K.” psychobabble that I had endured in my lastyears in the Episcopal Church. I had come home. And hap-

CHURCHOPENED
IN KENYAPROCLAIMED ASPRO-CATHEDRAL
Some 300 of the faithful from throughout Kenya werepresent on Trinity IV, June 23, when the Rt. Rev. BrianIverach, Episcopal Visitor to the Missionary District ofKenya, consecrated the Pro-Cathedral Church ofChrist the Resurrection in Kayole (Nairobi).
Before consecrating the building, Bishop Iverach cut theribbon to officially announce his arrival by thrice strikingthe entry door to the church. Following the opening of thedoor by the rector, the Ven. John Ndegwa, the waitingfaithful flowed into the nave. Many others overflowed intothe narthex and onto the street.
Following many baptisms and with incense billowing, theBishop and altar party processed to the sanctuary. The Rev.Stephen Ndichu (Good Shepherd, Korogocho, Nairobi)read the Epistle and Father Ndegwa read the Gospel in themidst of the congregation. Bishop Iverach preached. BishopIverach consecrated the altar, and his chaplain, the Rev.Immanuel Landy-Ariel, read the proclamation of Christthe Resurrection as the pro-cathedral church for the mis-sionary district.
Before proceeding with the celebration of the Eucharist,Bishop Iverach instituted Father Ndegwa as rector of Christthe Resurrection.
A reception followed the liturgy.Bishop Iverach noted that the day’s joyous events brought
attention to the grace from God in the steady building ofthe ACC in Kenya on the strong foundation of the Gospelof salvation in Christ, the head of the Church.
Bishop Iverach consecrates the altar. Father JohnNdegwa, rector, painted the frescoes on the sanctuarywalls.

It was all “Oldies and Goldies” recently when St.Tim-othy’s, Charleston, South Carolina, U.S.A. hostedits first “Senior Prom.”
The parish hall was converted into a dance hall with anarray of platters from the ‘60s, special table decorations of45rpm records with attached goodies, such as a “Bowl ofCherries.”
Chuck and Pam Wencel planned the event, while BarbraBentley and Glenda Barnett made decorations, posters andsigns signifying the 1960s.
A DJ was on hand to play golden oldies for the seniorsto dance to. A highlight of the evening was the crowningof a king and queen, James Welby and Debbie Sterling.
The Rev. Canon Frederick Bentley joined Mr. Wencel inentertaining with plastic saxophones and identifying dancesteps. Members of St. Timothy’s and some women of theRed Hat Society, as well as other guests, danced the nightaway. Refreshments were served.
“It is most fitting that the pro-cathedral be dedicated toour Lord Jesus Christ as with God’s help traditional Anglicanfaith and practice is restored in Kenya,” he said.

Two young women in the eastern Democratic Republicof Congo (DRC) have new hope for the future, thanks tothe generosity of Canadian churchmen.
The Canadian-based Africa Appeal has provided fundsto send Wivine and Faraja, whose plight was reported inthe July-August issue of THETRINITARIAN, to attendsewing school and provide them with sewing machines sothey can earn a living as seamstresses. Both young women,still in their teens, have children whose births resulted fromrape, which is all too common in the strife-plagued easternregions of the DRC.
“Rape is a shameful act in Congolese society,” the Rt. Rev.Steven Ayule-Milenge, Bishop Ordinary of the MissionaryDiocese of Congo, wrote in an article discussing the prob-lem. “It leads its victim to lose hope in life.”
SEWING MACHINESOFFER NEW HOPE
A future without hope was what both Wivine and Farajawere facing when they approached Bishop Ayule-Milenge,seeking help.
Wivine was raped while fetching water; she was 15 yearsold. Faraja, 16, was raped by a 58-year-old businessman whoescaped to a neighboring country after bribing the police.
The sewing machines provided to Wivine and Faraja areSinger treadle types that can be used even when electricityis not available. Cost of the machines is about US$500each, while a six-month course in sewing costs approximate-
ly US$200 per pupil.A second donor has provided funding toward the estab-
lishment of a sewing workshop in the eastern city of Bukavu,a goal of the Missionary Diocese of Congo. Total cost of theproject is around US$4,500, Bishop Ayule-Milenge said.
The Africa Appeal, which provides funding and assis-tance for ACC work in the DRC and the Republic of Cam-eroon, is a joint venture of St. Bride of Kildare, Pitt Mead-ows, and St. Columba of Iona, Halfmoon Bay. Both parish-es are in British Columbia and are part of the TraditionalAnglican Church of Canada, a missionary district of theACC’s Original Province. The Rev. David R. Marriottserves both parishes and directs the African Appeal’s work.He has visited ACC parishes in both the eastern Congoand Cameroon.
The gifts will enable both both young women to earn livings as seamstresses.

and old. Our clergy and laymen saw hungry kids unable tofocus on their classwork during the day, elderly membersof the community neglected or abandoned by their own fam-ilies.
And, having seen, they stepped in to help.Our parishes have set up charitable kitchens to feed the
children and communal homes to care for the elderly. Theirlimited resources make maintaining these ministries a chal-lenge, but often the surrounding community is so impressedwith this work that they willingly provide support withgenerous gifts of supplies and financial help.
This is the gospel in its simplest form: instinctual carefor the least of our brethren. It is a primary mark of the mis-sionary work of our Church in Colombia.
Second (and related to the first observation), our clergy-men are highly respected in their local communities. Thereare several reasons why.
Our priests are highly educated; many had been trainedin the rigorous seven-year seminary program of the RomanCatholic Church before joining the ACC. As such, in a heav-ily Roman Catholic country, they stand out among the typ-ically undereducated leaders of non-Roman churches asserious, committed and accomplished men. Just as their com-mitment to charitable works within the local communitygives them access to the poor and undereducated, so theirhigh level of education provides a foothold of respectabili-ty among the educated and professional classes.
All this comes together in a robust parish life, with min-istries reaching across the whole socioeconomic strata of thecommunities they serve.
This wide appeal extends as well to young students andprofessionals at a time in their lives when many would oth-erwise be tempted to distance themselves from the highmoral standards expected of Christian living. I overheardone of our priests telling a young lady that he would notfault her for enjoying a late evening out with friends on a
Saturday night, provided she was at Mass the followingmorning. Sure enough, she was there, with tired eyes, asmile and several of her fellow revelers from the eveningbefore.
Lastly, the community of our Colombian church lead-ers, formed by clergy and laymen alike, and centered aroundthe person of Bishop Germán Orrego Hurtado, is one ofthe most impressive examples of extended familial ties with-in the body of Christ that I’ve had the privilege of witness-ing. A mere ten days in their company was enough for mesee clearly the deep bonds of affection that have grown be-tween them during many years of ministry together.
They come from dissimilar backgrounds; their person-alities, gifts and ages are dramatically different from oneanother; and their ministries exist in numerous shapes andsizes. But underlying these human differences, which toooften in the Church are allowed to foster competition, jeal-ousy or mere interpersonal friction, is a foundation of loveand respect borne out of decades of mutual labor.
The priests love their congregations. Their parishionersknow this and reciprocate. Likewise, the priests respect thewisdom and leadership of Bishop Germán, and he allowsthem to exercise their many gifts while providing a steadyhand that unites the works of many into one coherentchurch family.
It was a pleasure to share, if only for a short time, in theenjoyment of both their labor and their community.
Pray for our brothers and sisters in Colombia. And takecomfort in knowing that the universal Church is muchlarger than the work we have undertaken in our own congre-gations, even within our own countries. Gifted men andwomen throughout the world labor in love alongside us inbuilding the wonderful kingdom of God.

one priest for the diocese. I promised that on my next visitto Colombia I would endeavor to travel first to Medellínto see our expanding work in one of Colombia’s mostbeloved cities.
During our visit, Father Becher, Mrs. Sears and I werevery grateful not only to the clergy but also to the layfolkwho opened their homes and hearts to us so warmly for mealsand hospitality. In particular we are grateful to FatherBolívar’s family, to Leo Villa’s mother, and to Bishop Orrego’swife, Liliana, and daughters, Maria José, Victoriana, AngelicaMaría and Mariana.

Church’s growth is fueled in large part by self-sacrificing cler-gy and clergy families. The great bulk of funding comes fromwithin the diocese. Even the poorest of congregations inColombia are engaged in self-help in regard to fundraising.But many of our congregations in Colombia are attractingprofessional and middle-class folk, so we may hope that anyassistance provided from outside can be matched by localresources. Everywhere I went I heard this: “We are very will-ing to work hard, but would love to have a little help also.”I know Father Becher, Mrs. Sears and I all were deeply im-pressed by what we saw and feel a strong desire to assistBishop Orrego and his splendid clergy and people.

BE AN ANGEL!SUPPORT
THETRINITARIAN®
BY JOINING THE
ANGELS’ CLUB!Over the last several years the ACC has become truly an international Church, with parishes and dioceses
in Australia, Colombia, Haiti, India, Kenya, New Zealand, South Africa, Sudan, the United Kingdom, theUnited States and Venezuela. As the Church has grown, THETRINITARIAN has endeavored to providecoverage of churchfolk living and spreading their faith in all corners of the world. For many, it has becomethe sole source of news from other parts of the Church.
But with this comes responsibility, and a price. Many of our brothers and sisters, especially in Africa, theCaribbean and Latin America, are barely able to feed and shelter themselves. They, and their dioceses, cannotafford to underwrite the cost of sending THETRINITARIAN to their often remote parishes and homes. Inthe developed countries — Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom and the United States — the crisisovertaking the world economy has taken its toll, with many people out of work or living on reduced incomes.And, as always, there are elderly folk who from year to year eke out existences on often inadequate pensions.These good people cannot afford to pay for their subscriptions to THETRINITARIAN. They must rely onthe generosity of others to receive their newspapers.
If we are to continue our ministry to these people, we need your help — now more thanever.
Financial support from the Province and the dioceses provides only about 20 percent of what it costs topublish our newspaper and get it in the mails to our worldwide readership. The rest comes from you — ourreaders. Without you, we can’t continue. Many of you have responded, some of you with generosity.Unfortunately, many others have not. We need their help — now — if we are to continue the job the Lordhas given us to do.
We ask you to move forward with us. If you haven’t done so, please mail your subscription now.But if you really want to help us grow and better serve the Church, why not become a
member of the Angels’ Club?It’s easy. Simply give more than $25 per subscription annually, and you automatically become a member.
Plus, your name will be published in THETRINITARIAN.$25 (U.S.) per subscription outside the U.S.

THEBACK PAGELeft: The addition to St. Paul’sparish hall, named in honor of the late JoAnn Poorman,will provide much-neededSunday school, nursery andmeeting space.

NEW WING BLESSEDAT MICHIGAN PARISH
FACILITY HONORSLIFELONG MEMBER
The Rt. Rev. Rommie M. Starks, Bishopof the Midwest, blessed and dedicated thenewly built extension to the parish hall ofSt. Paul’s, Grand Rapids, Michigan,U.S.A. during his visitation Aug. 4.
The new wing, construction on whichbegan last year, has been named in mem-ory of longtime parishioner JoAnn Poor-man.
The main purpose of the wing is toprovide two dedicated rooms for Sundayschool and nursery, which hitherto hadto make shift in corners of the parishhall, said the Rev. Richard Bowyer, rec-tor of St. Paul’s.
In addition, the wing includes a well-appointed meeting room which can beused for vestry meetings and study groups,he added. Another room is now being
used as a choir vestry. Opportunity was alsotaken to extend the kitchen.
“We hope the building will be in full usefor next year’s meeting of the Diocese ofthe Midwest Synod at St. Paul’s,” FatherBowyer said.
Mrs. Poorman was a lifelong memberof St. Paul’s, having attended the originalEpiscopal church on Turner Avenue, thesecond one on Leonard Street and thepresent ACC church on Lake MichiganAvenue, until her death in 2012. By happycoincidence, the day of dedication wouldhave been her 75th birthday.
“JoAnn was always eager to supportyoung people’s involvement in churchlife, so it is appropriate that the JoAnnPoorman Wing is primarily intended toprovide better facilities for Sundayschool and youth activities,” Father Bow-yer said.
Mrs. Poorman’s husband, Jerry, is cur-rent senior warden of St. Paul’s.
