Exercise. With summer coming, I had to face the fact that my body was totally out of shape. So I joined a fitness club and signed up for the aerobics class. I got to the club, and there I bent, twisted, gyrated, jumped up and down, and perspired for an hour. But by the time I got my clothes off and my sweats on, the class was over.
Egg. Church notice: This being Easter Sunday, we will ask Mrs Cusworth to come forward and lay an egg on the altar.
Christian Upbringing. After the baptism of his baby brother in church, Jason sobbed all the way home in the back seat of the car. His father asked him three times what was wrong. Finally, the boy replied: "That preacher said he wants us brought up in a Christian home, but I want to stay with you and Mom."

14 ST. CLEMENT’S EPISCOPAL CHURCH Building a Diverse Christian Community Worship Is Not A Spectator Sport!
As I participate in the 2019 Vestry retreat where there are many topics of discussion, I am moved by a statement that Fr. Andrew makes: “Worship Is Not a Spectator Sport”. I stop, ponder, and being the ever jotting note- taker write down that statement feeling assured that I will revisit and drill down to put to good use at some future date.
A few days later I review my notes and there it is again, staring right back at me. As someone that has attended church and worshipped for many years this statement truly hit home. Was I a mere spectator, giving an hour a week to worship? Was that all there was or is? This was cause for a deeper dive into my relationship with God, the relationship with St Clement’s and the relationship with each and every parishioner. Was I merely a spectator, or was I actively seeking involvement?
The reality (or perhaps excuse) is that most of us live busy lives – there are many moving parts and time constraints are many in this fast paced world. So how best do we become a participant instead of just a spectator?
Participation has many faces, and each of us must decide how best we participate in our worship, faith and parish given our availability. Involvement is a multi-level choice, one that individualized by each and every one. Does involvement mean merely sitting in that assigned seat in the pew each Sunday, or does it extend to other ways we can serve outside of each Sunday’s service.
For me my inner look is helping me to focus on other ways of participation, even if those are blocks of “mini-time” that are available to serve – those all add up. Indeed, St Clement’s (like any church) relies on our players, players that help through their own ways and calling to build wor- ship that glorifies God’s name. Yes we all spectate, but it sure is rewarding to play in the game sometime.

Hi Fellow Knitters and Crocheters, Knitted Knockers are special handmade breast prosthesis for women who have undergone mastec- tomies or other procedures to the breast. Traditional breast prosthetics are usually expensive, heavy, sweaty and uncomfortable. They typically require special bras or camisoles with pockets and can’t be worn for weeks after surgery. Knitted Knockers on the other hand are soft, comfort- able, beautiful, and when placed in a regular bra they take the shape and feel of a real breast. Knit- ted knockers can be adjusted to fill the gap for breasts that are uneven and easily adapted for those going through reconstruction by simply removing some of the stuffing. Please visit the website to find further information, approved patterns, tutorials, and list of ap- proved yarns. www.knittedknockers.org Note that the organization will only accept knockers made from approved yarn using approved patterns. I printed off patterns and Margeaux now has a folder in the office with copies for your use. I will be glad to send unstuffed knockers to the organization located in WA State. We need to keep our needles and hooks busy this year. Jeanne
