Everything for a good summer and a good life is there at camp. Take what you learn from camp and try to apply it to your regular life. --By Dennis Crissman with respect to Robert Fulghum 2 Introduction Dear Staff: The following materials been developed for your work in outdoor ministries, especially to prepare for GROW Time. Use this as a reference book. During staff training, treat it like one of your campers this summer. Keep it with you at all times and know where it is! This can be an object lesson during training to remember CAMPERS FIRST!!!! When making decisions this summer, you should always put the needs of your campers over the needs of yourself. Get to know them. Learn their name early on. Treat them as a child of God! As we orient you to available materials and resources, Prayer Partners- On the first day of pay attention. Watch what we do, where we go, and training, you are being given a prayer listen to what is being said. It’s important, even if partner. This is someone on the staff you’ve been part of Mount Luther a thousand times, who you will pray for and with during to keep watch. We’re always improving our program the summer (and beyond)! Share your and we’ve changed things for this summer. You worries and concerns for the summer never know when something will be a bit different! with your prayer partner. Pray for him/her frequently. Each week as we To help with faith growth each summer, we use a gather and begin our week together themed curriculum. You should possess a basic with a circle prayer, you can pray for understanding of the Biblical texts and the materials your prayer partner and his/her presented here so that you can adequately teach our worries, concerns, and joys! You can campers. The materials in this packet are condensed write your prayer partner’s name here: and taken from various resources, including From Generation to Generation Outdoor Ministries Curriculum, © 2019 Lutheran Outdoor Ministries. By looking over this material, you undoubtedly will have questions. Please ask! Once you have a general understanding of our Bible passages, you can think of other activities, devotions, songs, and games which may relate to each day’s theme. We will review this material during our staff training, discussing how to apply it to your work. The theme verse for this summer is as follows: “For the Lord is good; his steadfast love endures forever, and his faithfulness to all generations.” --Psalm 100:5 Life can be unpredictable and challenging. As a result, we can become consumed with fear, trying to control the things happening around us—or we can trust that something or someone greater than our circumstances is caring and benevolent and able to get us through what life brings. The stories we hear as children help us navigate day-to-day situations, helping us live out a response and build an understanding of how the world works. For example, Cinderella offers hope when family dynamics change, and the Three Little Pigs encourage us to work together to overcome a bully. The narratives of the Hebrew and Christian scriptures are stories of our ancestors in the faith that help us see God’s hand at work in all the things that happen in our lives. Their significance isn’t only for people and places of the past but also for us today, showing us a loving God who is always active in creation and our purpose as God’s agents of love and hope when others are filled with fear. With this curriculum, From Generation to Generation, campers and their leaders will explore the stories of familiar Bible characters and their responses to God’s call and promised faithfulness in the midst of life’s unpredictability and challenges. The promises of God, first made to Abraham and Sarah, include a place to live, a purpose to live out, and a posterity to carry on God’s promises to all future generations. 3 Abraham and Sarah were called to step out in faith with a destination unknown, but a promise to assure them of God’s grace and blessing. Joseph stepped beyond anger to embrace God’s gifts and use them to bless more people than expected. His story emphasizes that what others might mean for harm, God can use to bring promised blessing. David’s story reminds us that God has a propensity for choosing the least expected person to do the most difficult job. God does not call the qualified but instead qualifies the called. Each one of us can be God’s agent of blessing. In that same manner, the story of Mary the mother of Jesus shows us that God goes beyond cultural conventions and our understanding to keep the promises made to Abraham and Sarah and their offspring. Mary’s courageous trust is an example of a life narrative to follow. The stories of Paul, Timothy, and Lydia extend the promises beyond the descendants of Abraham and Sarah to all the world, including us. We are invited to experience God’s promised blessing, love, and grace and also to share it with those in our world today. Simon Sinek, a contemporary author, talks about a “circle of safety” that people need in order to develop healthy community relationships. In an organization, that translates to increased engagement with its mission and its continuation into the future. In the faith community, this circle of safety allows individuals to move beyond their own needs to lives that serve others, confident that they themselves are not going to be forgotten in their own times of need. In John 13, when Jesus washes his disciples’ feet, he sets aside the expected hierarchy and practice of that time and place. Rather than being served by them, he takes care of his followers, a self-denying action made more poignant in the events that follow. As extraordinary as it seems, Jesus’s act of humble service is simply consistent with God’s actions toward God’s people throughout time. God repeatedly puts the needs of the people ahead of God’s expectations and demands. God’s benevolence and patience forms a people called to live with a purpose that draws the world closer to what God intends. God’s steadfast love, which endures across the generations, provides a circle of safety for those who follow God. Freed from fear, we step out, trusting that missteps will not destroy us, that God’s guidance will take us where God has called us to go, creating relationships based on care and compassion. Week at a Glance 4 5 6 GROW Time Adapted from material by Betsy Debertin, Metigoshe Ministries, from her classroom students, ELCA Curriculums and the books The Important Book by Margaret Wise Brown and 4Mat Level 1 from About Learning. GROW Time is held every day with your cabin group and with the whole camp; this is when we study the Bible and learn more about God. GROW Time is not an academic endeavor in an outdoor setting. It is an intentional and relational wrestling with the written account of humanity’s quest for God. Finding God is one of church camp’s goals. Scripture serves as a door through which we seek. Through the study of scripture, as well as through the natural setting of camp, people seek to experience God. Mount Luther is in the “business” of making disciples for Christ, by forming the faith of those who come to this place set apart by God. Therefore, we Gather and Reflect On the Word each day. Reading and responding to God’s Word is the backbone of all that we do at Mount Luther. Giving campers opportunities to verbalize their faith and to see how their faith plays into all they do is the most important venture of camp. CONCEPT: Each day will have a singular concept that you want the campers to learn about and walk away with knowledge of how it affects their lives. Reinforce the daily theme/concept all day long in all you do! LEARNING STYLES: To understand the flow of a typical day of GROW Time, you need to understand that there are a variety of gifts and abilities each of us are given (Read Corinthian 12: 4-11).

  • The Churchma.Nship of the Homilies
    THE· CHURCHMANSHIP OF THE HOMILIES 4r THE CHURCHMA.NSHIP OF THE HOMILIES. BY THE REV. GEORGE MARTIN, :M.A.., Vicar of St. John's, Kilburn. T may be questioned if the vast majority of the laity have ever I read the Homilies. It would hardly be rash, perhaps, to go further, and suggest that even the great body of the clergy are more or less unacquainted with them. There is little, if any, excuse for leaving them in such a state of neglect. In the following pages an attempt is made to sketch their history, to show their authority, to indicate their character and teaching, and, finally, to ascertain what is the type of churchman­ ship which they represent, and to which some kind of conformity is due. The First Book of Homilies was published in r547, which was the year of Edward VI's accession. It was issued by royal authority, through the influence of Cranmer, who was the author of several of the Homilies in it. But in spite of the fact that Convocation gave no sanction for its publication, it really owed its origin to the resolve which was made by that body, in the year r542, "to make certain homilies for stay of such errors as were then by ignorant preachers sparkled among the people." These Homilies ceased to be used on the accession of Queen Mary, but were again put forth by the authority of Queen Elizabeth in the year r559. There were twelve Homilies in this Book. A Second Book of Homilies was drawn up by Convocation in r562-3 and was published in r563.

  • David Neelands, Diocese of Toronto
    Commission on the Marriage Canon Anglican Church of Canada 80 Hayden Street Toronto, ON M4Y 3G2 Dear Canon Falby and colleagues, Attached is a report for your commission. I have taken seriously as my theme the reference to the Solemn Declaration of 1893 in the amended Resolution C003. I believe that the Solemn Declaration is the best reference we have to Anglican norms for considerations of doctrine and order in our Church, and that a careful consideration of various parts of the Declaration may help us in this process. My paper is long, tedious and the worst kind of scholarship – historical. History was added only in the last 150 years to the theological curriculum, although theologians have forever talked about a past of their own choice. Theological historians, like other academic historians, deal with histories, books about histories, and discussions about books about histories. We are the bane of the systematic theologians. Perhaps we can be of some use to those who must consider the precedents of order. I offer you this in all humility and, I hope, charity. This is my own personal statement, although it represents input from many students, faculty colleagues and parishioners over some years. When we began to talk about some of these matters, we did not dream that our country would alter the laws on marriage. The changes is statute law have made things clearer, but also more difficult, since our Church law is always tied so closely to the law of the land, and we take more care about our church law than about our teachings.

  • Reading the Books of Homilies Today a Report by the Sydney Diocesan Doctrine Commission 10 August, 2018
    Reading the Books of Homilies Today A Report by the Sydney Diocesan Doctrine Commission 10 August, 2018 Preamble On 4 May 2017, the Archbishop wrote to the chairman of the Doctrine Commission requesting that the Commission “explore the import of Article XXXV of the Articles of Religion for today.” As the Archbishop went on to explain, he had “received reports of concern from certain quarters that the Homily on the State of Matrimony in Book II at certain places is couched in language which might not be described as conveying ‘godly and wholesome Doctrine.’” He also noted that the Article speaks of the Homilies as being “necessary for these times” and so wondered “to what extent this necessity translates to the times of the 21st century, as well as the judgment of the authors of the Article that they be ‘read in Churches by Ministers, diligently and distinctly, that they may be understanded of the people.’” The following report is a response the Archbishop’s request. 1. The Content of Article XXXV The text of Article XXXV of the 39 Articles of Religion reads as follows: Article XXXV: Of Homilies The second Book of Homilies, the several titles whereof we have joined under this Article, doth contain a godly and wholesome doctrine and necessary for these times, as doth the former Book of Homilies which were set forth in the time of Edward the Sixth: and therefore we judge them to be read in Churches by the ministers diligently and distinctly, that they may be understanded of the people.

  • The Anglican 39 Articles
    As established by the Bishops, the Clergy, and the Laity of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America, in Convention, on the twelfth day of September, in the Year of our Lord, 1801. I. Of Faith in the Holy Trinity. There is but one living and true God, everlasting, without body, parts, or passions; of infinite power, wisdom, and goodness; the Maker, and Preserver of all things both visible and invisible. And in unity of this Godhead there be three Persons, of one substance, power, and eternity; the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. II. Of the Word or Son of God, which was made very Man. The Son, which is the Word of the Father, begotten from everlasting of the Father, the very and eternal God, and of one substance with the Father, took Man's nature in the womb of the blessed Virgin, of her substance: so that two whole and perfect Natures, that is to say, the Godhead and Manhood, were joined together in one Person, never to be divided, whereof is one Christ, very God, and very Man; who truly suffered, was crucified, dead, and buried, to reconcile his Father to us, and to be a sacrifice, not only for original guilt, but also for actual sins of men III. Of the going down of Christ into Hell. As Christ died for us, and was buried, so also is it to be believed, that he went down into Hell. IV. Of the Resurrection of Christ. Christ did truly rise again from death, and took again his body, with flesh, bones, and all things appertaining to the perfection of Man's nature; wherewith he ascended into Heaven, and there sitteth, until he return to judge all Men at the last day.

  • 1 Life and Writings Sheridan Gilley
    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-69272-4 - The Cambridge Companion to John Henry Newman Edited by Ian Ker and Terrence Merrigan Excerpt More information 1 Life and writings sheridan gilley newman the anglican Childhood and youth John Henry Newman was born in London on 21 February 1801, the eldest of the six children, three sons and three daughters, of a banker, John Newman, an easygoing member of the Church of England without strong dogmatic convictions, and of his wife Jemima née Fourdrinier, whose ancestry was French Huguenot. Newman was baptized an Anglican in the London church of St Benet Fink on 9 April, though he was only to make his first communion as an undergraduate in Oxford in November 1817. His religious upbringing was a conventional, non-sacramental middle-class one. His childhood religious education was the then com- monplace Anglican undoctrinal Bible-reading of his aunt Elizabeth Good Newman, and his paternal grandmother Elizabeth née Good, but he brought to it a profound sense of the superior reality of the supernatural, as in his wish that the Arabian Nights were true and in his imagining that he was an angel and the world was a deception played upon him by his fellow-angels. This state of mind was interrupted by an adolescent reading of the Deist Tom Paine and the sceptic David Hume. His conversion to a more dogmatic form of Christianity, Calvinist Evangelicalism, occurred, according to his own account, at the age of fifteen in the autumn of 1816. It took place during the summer holidays while he was staying on at his boarding school as a result of the failure of his father’sbankand under the influence of his Anglican Calvinist schoolmaster mentor, the Rev Walter Mayers.

  • Pack Your Homilies with Life
    Pack Your Homilies with Life by Fr. Jim Schmitmeyer Donald Miller’s book A Thousand Miles in a Million Years (Thomas Nelson, Inc.) chronicles a film company’s attempt to instill a sense of drama into Miller’s sedentary life. The unusual project forces Miller to reassess the impact of his life on others. So he decides to get off the couch, switch off the TV, and embark on a personal quest that includes a cross-country bike excursion. The most intriguing insights he gleans from his trip are drawn from scenes in the lives of ordinary people in everyday circumstances: a father sets work aside for a homecoming photo with his daughter; a young girl dances in an open field of wheat; a man guns his truck to the top of a hill to watch an ocean sunset. Storytelling changes reality According to Miller, the effort to construct unforgettable scenes helps create meaning in one’s life. To support his argument, he cites God’s directives in the Old Testament to build altars to mark places of significant epiphanies. Miller’s conclusion: “We have to blow up the inner-tubes and head for the river....We have to put on our suits, we have to dance at the weddings. We have to make altars” (p. 214). Ordinary places, extraordinary scenes The role of the homilist is similar to that of a screenwriter insofar as it involves a search for scenes of grace. If life’s meaning is crystallized in memorable scenes, then the highlighting of grace also requires a more-than-sedentary approach to preaching.
