The Shadow of the Cross Welcome to Georgetown Presbyterian Order of Worship Georgetown Presbyterian Church April 1, 2012 Holy Week Begins 10:00 am Service Palm Sunday celebrates Jesus’ triumphal entry into Jerusalem. Yet even as the people cheered “Hosanna” the stage was quickly being set for the events that would change the world forever. By week’s end, Jesus will be betrayed, arrested, convicted in an illegal trial and crucified at a place that has come to be known as “Calvary” - a Latin translation of the Biblical name “Golgotha.” Our service today remembers that week from the joy of the entry, to the agony of the crucifixion, to the hope of something more to come. The Choral Cantata this morning lifts up our Lenten theme “The Shadow of the Cross. At the end of the service, you are invited to leave the sanctuary in silence but not in despair - for indeed there is more to come - God will not leave us at the cross and the shadows will give way to the coming dawn. Leader: The Peace of Christ be with you! People: And also with you! Offerings of Praise! We come into God’s presence joyfully and humbly, preparing ourselves to receive God’s word.

O Lamb of God, bring its scenes before me; O Love That Will Not Let Me Go Help me walk from day to day with its shadows o’er me. O Love, that will not let me go, I rest my weary soul in thee; In the cross, in the cross, be my glory ever, I give thee back the life I owe, Till my raptured soul shall find rest beyond the river. That in thine ocean depths its flow may richer, fuller be. Jesus, I come, O Light that followest all my way, I yield my flickering torch to thee; Jesus, I come, My heart restores its borrowed ray, Jesus, I come to the cross. That in thy sunshine’s blaze its day may brighter, fairer be. We Remember You Lamb of God We remember you, we remember you; Your only Son, no sin to hide, By your sacrifice of love all glory now is due. But you have sent him from your side to walk upon this guilty sod, At this table here mercy hovers near. And to become the Lamb of God. Thanks is offered up; in this bread and cup we remember you. Your gift of love they crucified, Jesus, King of kings, name above all names, They laughed and scorned him as he died, the humble King they named a fraud, Precious holy Lamb of God, your praises we proclaim! And sacrificed the Lamb of God. Gladly we embrace both these signs of grace, O Lamb of God, sweet Lamb of God, Thanks is offered up; in this bread and cup we remember you. I love the holy Lamb of God. O wash me in his precious blood.

  • 2010 in Review from Commerce
    Dec. 28, 2010 Invite a Friend [email protected] 2010 in review from Commerce Happy Holidays from all of us at the North Carolina Department of Commerce! As 2010 draws to a close, this week’s SYNC takes a look back at the year's top economic development accomplishments from across North Carolina. Like 2009, 2010 presented difficult challenges to the state’s economic development community, but there were also many success stories and examples of outstanding collaboration in all corners of the state. Established businesses such as Caterpillar, Siemens and IBM continued their commitment to North Carolina by expanding in the state. New partners such as Facebook helped cement North Carolina's reputation as a leader in the data center industry. This year also saw the launch of ThriveNC.com, a new website dedicated to meet the needs of business decision-makers and site selection consultants, as well as an expanded marketing program for in-state partners. Topping it off, Site Selection magazine once again named the state as the nation's best business climate. With continued leadership from Governor Bev Perdue and N.C. Department of Commerce Secretary Keith Crisco, along with the collaborative efforts of every member of the state's economic development community, the outlook for 2011 looks bright. In the coming year, SYNC will continue to bring you the news and information that builds collaborative relationships and helps us all stay in SYNC. Perdue announces small business initiatives Governor Bev Perdue on Jan. 13 announced her major policy priorities for the coming year – jobs and the economy, education, setting government straight, and keeping communities safe.

  • CASA Volunteers Add the Color
    CASA volunteers add the color... VOICES FOR CHILDREN ANNUAL REPORT 2011–2012 ... that brings a foster child’s case to life. ¤ February 2013 DEAR FRIENDS, On behalf of all of us at Voices for Children, thank you. Whether you are a donor, a volunteer, or a caring citizen concerned about the plight of foster children, we are very grateful for your generosity of time, funds, and spirit. Your support enables us to advocate on behalf of the thousands of abused and neglected children living in San Diego County foster care. It is through the dedication and commitment of our Court Appointed Special Advocates —our CASA volunteers—that we are transforming the lives of innocent children caught in the complex bureaucracy of the foster care system. These children have suffered horrific trauma by those who were supposed to care for them and love them the most, and the impact of such betrayal lasts a lifetime, shadowing them well into adulthood. It erodes their physical health and mental well-being and can devastate self-confidence, resilience, trust, and hope. CASAs from Voices for Children provide that hope. They speak up for their case children’s needs in San Diego County’s Juvenile Dependency Court, providing context, detail, and history so that judges can make the best possible rulings to ensure the well-being of each boy and girl. As one judge put it, “I sometimes think of a child’s coloring book when I consider the work of CASAs. The case files I receive are full of generalized reports from social workers and lawyers—they provide an outline of a child.

    MIDDLE OF NOWHERE Written and Directed by Ava DuVernay WINNER! BEST DIRECTOR AWARD SUNDANCE FILM FESTIVAL 2012 PRESS CONTACT: Tilane Jones | AFFRM | 818.995.0050 | [email protected] PRESS QUOTES NEW YORK TIMES January 27, 2012 | "Amazing Child, Typical Grown-Ups" by Manohla Dargis "Further under the radar though far more successful is "Middle of Nowhere," a heartfelt, slow to build, slow to burn drama from Ava DuVernay about a young married woman, Ruby (Emayatzy Corinealdi), keeping body and soul together while her husband, Derek (Omari Hardwick), serves out his sentence in a California prison. Working with the terrific cinematographer Bradford Young, Ms. DuVernay fills her movie with long shots and meticulously framed images of casual beauty that reflect the quietly evolving inner life of her heroine." LOS ANGELES TIMES January 30, 2012 | "Sundance Film Festival: From 'Beasts' to 'Ice,' wonder wins out" by Kenny Turan "…At the other end of the spectrum is "Middle of Nowhere," winner of the U.S. drama directing prize for Ava DuVernay. This is classic filmmaking of a completely different sort…" THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER January 20, 2012 | Review by John DeFore "Strong performances and a restrained script sell drama about a couple separated by prison walls. Solidly crafted by budding writer-director Ava DuVernay, it should find a warm reception at fests and in a niche theatrical run." LOS ANGELES TIMES January 20, 2012 | "Meaty Roles for Black Actors in MIDDLE OF NOWHERE" "It's a real challenge to find African American characters with depth," Oyelowo said at a post-screening Q&A, "But when I read this, it was just like 'Do the Right Thing,' or 'She's Gotta Have It,' the characters just lept off the page...

D., Advisor Marina Krcmar, Ph. D., Chair John Petrocelli, Ph. D. DEDICATION This thesis is dedicated to Mrs. Betty W. Johnson Thank you for giving me the opportunity to learn, and to write. -Charlotte Strong ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS First, I would like to thank my parents, Mark Lacko and Tracy Strong, for supporting my decision to put off the “real world” for two more years and enroll at Wake Forest. I know it didn’t seem like the best decision at the time, but everything happens for a reason, right? I was simply trusting my cape. Additionally, I would like to thank my big little brother, Jeffrey Lacko, for making me laugh and keeping me sane and humble while I was off succeeding. I am so blessed to have such a (large) loving and supportive family. I would like to thank my grandfather, Jack Strong, for instilling an interest and love of education in me at a young age. I would also like to thank my extended Lacko and Strong families for constantly reminding me that learning can be cool, too. Molly, I may never figure out why I came to graduate school, but I know I wouldn’t have gotten through it without you.
