Welcome to St. Augustine’s Metairie. St. Augustine’s is located in the heart of Metairie just off Interstate 10 in the Green Acres Subdivision which is in the Metropolitan Area of Louisiana. We are a member church of the Episcopal Faith in the Diocese of Louisiana. St. Augustine’s is a faith-led community working for the greater community and growing in the image of Jesus Christ. Our community represents every walk of life and all are welcome. The congregation of St. Augustine’s is a true representation of a diverse and inclusive environment and our diversity is represented throughout the Church. We are a community that appreciates a good sermon based on theology that also relates to current life and situations. We appreciate strong Christian formation opportunities that provide better understanding of our faith and each other. St. Augustine’s is also a community with strong fellowship opportunities usually revolving around food or enjoying each other’s company.

Included in this profile is a glimpse into who we are as a parish of faith. By God’s grace we are confident that we will find someone who will grow in our midst and build on our strong faith community. May God bless and keep you wherever your call leads you.

~St. Augustine’s Search Committee 3 Mission Statement

St. Augustine’s is a community of friendly people who share a commitment to progressive spiritual growth within a family environment. We welcome those who seek a closer relationship with God made known in Jesus Christ, and celebrate our call to love and serve others as Christ came to love and serve all.

4 The Collect

Lord God, the light of the minds that know you, the life of the souls that love you, and the strength of the hearts that serve you: send forth your Holy Spirit to guide the Search Committee, Vestry, and parish family of St. Augustine's to be of one heart and mind in our search for a rector who will worship in our midst, become part of our parish family, and guide us in spiritual growth, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

5 Our Next Rector

St. Augustine’s has been blessed with five excellent rectors since 1954, and has grown and flourished under their godly leadership. The search committee has talked with the community through small groups and a parish survey to determine where we are currently and what is needed to move us forward as a faith community.

Overwhelmingly the parish is looking for a strong preacher and effective teacher. We are a community that likes to be intellectually challenged through Christian formation. The next rector should be a good administrator as we are still a medium parish with a limited staff and be a diligent mediator to bring many different walks of life together.

We are looking for someone who is young at heart and able to keep up with our many activities. Being a diverse community with different views of politics and culture it is important that our next rector be open to all walks of life and be able to support everyone where they are in their own spiritual journey.

We asked the congregation for one word to describe the new rector and these are the results:

6 As part of the process of calling a new rector the congregation of St. Augustine’s took a look at where we are and where we see ourselves going. Below are the highlights:

What Works Well

Diverse group of individuals who come together to achieve goals

Many different ministries that support all (something for everyone)

We utilize the gifts of time, talent, and treasure effectively

We are a community resource for others

Challenge those who have become comfortable

Encourage members to participate in different groups

Ways to increase our numbers

Ability to attract young families

Goals

To grow our church family and increase our revenue to support current programs and expand the outreach of our community

To build a deeper relationship with each other and Christ

To provide us new opportunities to show Christ’s love in the world 7 Church History

St. Augustine's Church began as a missionary outreach of St. Martin's Episcopal Church in 1954. The land on which our church is located is part of the original property donated from St. Martin's School. Our twenty-five charter members, under the leadership of The Rev. John Stone Jenkins and The Rt. Rev. William Farwell, held their first services in the school's gymnasium. As the church grew, school buses were used as Sunday school classrooms. Throughout our history, we have had the great fortune to have excellent leadership from our five rectors: The Rev. Thomas C. Aycock, The Rev. Albertus L. DeLoach, The Rev. John A. Lawrence, The Rev. Ralph M. Byrd, and The Rev. A. J. Heine. Today, St. Augustine's is a parish of over 300 people, and we are actively searching for our sixth rector.

Rev. John Jenkins

Our Rectors 8 Staff & Vestry

Our leadership at St. Augustine’s has historically been strongly led by clergy, staff, and laity alike. We are a social parish that has enjoyed being involved on our Metairie campus, both Diocesan and state-wide. We have recently had one full-time clergy with a limited part-time assistant. Our music is led by a talented pianist, organist, and singer who would love to grow our music ministry. He has always been very willing to add music to any number of events both inside the church and outside for occasional “Concerts in the Courtyard” and more.

Lay leadership consists of a nine-member vestry who is commissioned to lead St. Augustine's in its business and vision. We are also blessed with an active and devoted group of parishioners who lead in many other ways. When COVID kept us out of our building, a volunteer stepped up to stream our services online, which he continues every Sunday. Our communications director is a volunteer who manages our website, social media, weekly emails, and more. Our Sunday School director is a professional teacher who has volunteered her time leading our children's program for many years. Other parishioners regularly lead groups and events, including our ECW, Men's Group (MOSA), Pumpkin Patch, Pumpkin Palooza, Movies on the Lawn, Concerts in the Courtyard, Helping Hands, our annual parish picnic, and a number of outreach ministries.

We also have a small paid staff who work during the week to keep things running smoothly. Our very dedicated financial secretary manages our bookkeeping and many of the secretarial duties of our day-to-day parish life. Our sexton is thorough and extremely committed to us and our grounds. Our Pre-School is on site, and is led by Director Joline LaCoste with a staff of wonderful, caring teachers. Prior to COVID-19, they and their students enjoyed a weekly chapel time.

We hope our new rector can lead us administratively, participate thoughtfully in our communications and online presence growth, resume Pre-School chapel time, and participate when able in our very active social life.

The strong commitment of our clergy, staff, lay leadership, and Pre-School employees helps keep us moving forward, enables us to participate in community engagement, growing, and enjoying our time together. We are appreciative of all who lead us in our mission and day-to-day work. 9 St. Augustine Staff

11 Worship

We currently offer Rite I and Rite II Sunday Services, and a Spanish liturgy presided by a Spanish-speaking celebrant in Rite II. Spanish services became Noonday Prayer during the pandemic from December 2020 to June 2021.

A Spanish-speaking diocesan priest, The Reverend Benjamin Sanchez is currently stationed at St. Augustine’s to build the Spanish language ministry throughout the Diocese and celebrate our Spanish Liturgy.

In order to reach all of our members during the pandemic we started streaming our Sunday services. We stream Morning Prayer and Compline performed by laity every day online. There is no Morning Prayer on Sunday. Evening Prayer is celebrated on Wednesdays.

We enjoy the rigors of a structured service, but we are able to attend as we are. Colloquially, one might say that we have “smells and bells with blue jeans.”

As with all churches, our services are rebuilding post- pandemic, but are not yet back to pre-pandemic numbers.

13 Spanish Ministry

Over the past few years, St. Augustine's has recognized the changing demographics in both our area and the wider Episcopal church, and the growing need for outreach and ministry in Spanish. We have been blessed to have a native Spanish-speaker, Fr. Benjamin Sanchéz, make St. Augustine's his "home base.” The growing Hispanic congregation he has fostered here has become a treasured part of our church family. Father Benjamin is a former Roman Catholic Priest from Colombia with many years of experience and an impressive educational background. Father Benjamin graduated from the Seminary of the Southwest at Austin in June and was received into our Diocese as an Episcopal Priest. He is working closely with both St. Augustine's and the Episcopal Diocese of Louisiana to grow a more robust Spanish language ministry for the entire region. Prior to COVID-19, we offered free language classes and various events that provided opportunities for our English and Spanish congregants to mingle and learn from one another, including occasional bilingual worship services. Fr. Benjamin led our Spanish-language service and, during the pandemic, has continued to stream on our Facebook page in Spanish every Sunday. St. Augustine's congregation is excited to see how this ministry will continue to grow and evolve. 14 Christian Formation

From the pulpit to the pew to the gathering in someone’s home, the people of St. Augustine’s have a thirst for knowledge and are constantly looking for ways to develop a closer relationship to God by putting teachings to work.

Classes for Christian formation are wide and varied, but most classes are held between the first two services on Sunday. These classes offer a variety of topics and different methods of teaching.

Bible study is currently held on Tuesdays but more offerings may be needed for working families to be able to participate.

In the past, we have had Education for Ministry (EFM) classes that were well-received and we are looking to possibly start these again.

It is important for the new rector to know that we value education and are eager to try new methods and experience opportunities. We value the input and insight of others that allow us to grow and become a stronger faith community. 15 Christian Formation at St. Augustine's starts with children. That's why on any given Sunday, you can see children involved in the service, enjoying Sunday School, and interacting with adults who may or may not be related to them. You'll find a rocking chair in the back of the church for kids who need to be rocked rather than whisked out of the service. You'll also find handouts for coloring that relate to that Sunday's scripture readings, and packets of "quiet toys" by the door as you enter church. Pre-COVID, we also had a complimentary Nursery during services, which is staffed with trained personnel who know the kids and care about them.

We also support children's faith formation through an active, scripture-based Sunday School program that meets from 9:15 a.m. to 10:15 a.m. during the fall and spring semesters. The fall semester of the program concludes with the Children's Christmas Pageant as part of our Christmas Eve Mass.

Another popular activity for children is our annual Vacation Bible School, usually held the first full week after Memorial Day. This half-day "camp" runs from Monday through Friday and teaches children Bible stories through storytelling, songs, plays, and crafts. We also continue to support the children of the parish through a Youth Group Program for 6th-12th graders.

For adults, we hold Christian Formation classes in Byrd Hall, simultaneously with the children’s Sunday School. A wide range of topics have been explored in these classes, which often focus on a book, a program of study, or seasonal themes. Scripture study groups have also been held outside Sundays, both on and off the church’s campus.

It would be a disservice to suggest that adult Christian Formation is simply an academic pursuit. Numerous fellowship opportunities are integral to parish life, and run the gamut from breaking bread together to the spirited competition of fantasy football. 16 Educational Opportunities

17 Social Ministries

The programs of our parish have grown along with our facilities. St. Augustine's has always had a strong commitment to education - both secular and religious. Our programs for our children, youth and adults are our greatest untapped opportunity. Our Pre-School for children two through four years of age is professionally staffed by teachers.

St. Augustine's is a living, vibrant place. Our facilities are constantly in use. Our Altar Guild, Choir, Lay Eucharistic Ministers, Lectors and Acolytes provide opportunities for service and growth within the setting of worship. The Men of St. Augustine’s, Episcopal Church Women, Daughters of the King, the Hospital Ministry Team, parish-wide mission trips, our annual Pumpkin Patch, and our Welcome Center carry the opportunities for growth and Christian ministry beyond the confines of our buildings. The buildings themselves have been used by many community groups for their meetings.

We are thankful for the opportunities and blessings God has bestowed upon this Church in Metairie.

19 Pre - School

St. Augustine’s Pre-School is a Member of the National Association of Episcopal Schools and is located on the grounds of the Sanctuary and provides a learning environment for two to four year olds. Pre-COVID, Chapel was held on Mondays with the children who attend the Pre-School.

St. Augustine’s Pre-School is designed to be a responsible, supervised learning opportunity for children to associate with their peers. Organized play, creative activities and developmental help adjusted to the child’s age and planned to assure each child of his or her social importance is directed for the development of a positive self-image in each child. The individuality of each child is held in high regard. Our responsibility as a Pre-School is to demonstrate concern with learning moral, ethical, and spiritual values.

During the summer, the Pre-School also holds summer camp for children ages two to six. Each class is limited to 18 children. Finances for the school are kept separate from the church and the school is self-sufficient.

20 Partners in Mission

Currently St. Augustine’s supports two partners in mission. These two partners have longstanding traditions with the church and outreach occurs throughout the year.

Church of the Holy Spirit, Tela, Hondouras

The partnership with Holy Spirit Church and Bilingual School began with mission trips to build small, organic stoves in poverty stricken areas where families still cooked over open fires - indoors. It expanded to other building maintenance efforts for the church and school, and to other assistance to those living in poverty. Our church has also provided a continuous scholarship to one young student who graduated this year. Five years ago in response to our local Diocesan school, St. Martin’s, efforts to create an international presence in its student body, we began to sponsor students to come to Metairie and complete their 12th grade year at STM. Hence, our Honduran Scholars Program was born. Ten students have completed the program and all are entered in universities in the US and abroad. An eleventh student will be attending STM next year. St. Augustine's is in constant contact with Holy Spirit and sends small presents and care packages for the children at Christmas.

Bissonet Plaza Elementary

Bissonet Plaza is located in Metairie and serves one of our struggling communities. The church participates in school supply drives, angel tree for Christmas, and teacher appreciation gifts.

Both Partners in Mission allow us the opportunity to show Christ’s love through action. We also keep them in our prayers and their prayer needs are added to those of the Parish. 21 Campus & Grounds

Our facilities have grown with us. In March 1957, ground was broken for our first building - the ground floor of our present parish hall. Our sanctuary was completed in 1961 and the second floor of our parish hall was added in 1964. The building which houses our school, offices, and parlor, the sacristy, gate house and fencing was completed in 1984. In 1999, a very successful capital campaign made it possible to completely renovate and restore the church - a much needed project after nearly 50 years of use.

Current Buildings: Sanctuary, Pre-School & Church Offices, Byrd Hall and Meeting Rooms and one rental property adjacent to the Church Campus.

22 The campus of St. Augustine's strikes a balance between accessibility to the world at large and isolation from the hustle and bustle of daily life. While it is located one block away from Veterans Boulevard, Metairie's busiest thoroughfare, the campus' buildings surround a quiet courtyard with a stone altar at one end, and a water fountain at the other. At the center is a large bell, rung to announce the start of each eucharistic service.

The church building itself is a brick building with a traditional, understated exterior. In the context of the courtyard, the campus is reminiscent of an English parish. Inside, the church presents various elements of Gothic revival architecture, such as the enameled wood panels, which include icons of Augustine of Hippo, and his mother, Monica. A Christus Rex adorns the central and highest panel overlooking the altar.

Adjacent to the narthex is a chapel. Above the choir loft are panes of stained glass in solid colors, and light from behind the altar is provided by a circular rose window, also in stained glass. Stained glass windows also surround the nave.

Opposite the church is a building in similar, understated exterior style, that houses the Pre-School on the ground floor, and administrative offices on the second. The ground floor also has a parlor, which is used for special events and small group meetings.

At the north end of the campus is Byrd Hall, so named after longtime Rector, Father Ralph Byrd and his wife, Bet. The ground floor of Byrd Hall contains a welcoming room, a main meeting area, and adjacent kitchen. The upper floor contains classrooms, choir rehearsal room, additional meeting spaces, and a library. Behind Byrd Hall is a playground, used by Pre-School and Sunday School students alike. 23 Finances
