DEANS REPORT
t was Dean Jess Trotter who built the Bishop Payne Library; Dean Richard Reid did the hard work of building Addison; and Dean Martha Horne transformed the Dormitories. The passing of time places an obligation on an institution to ensure that the campus is always fit for purpose.
Construction is a significant theme of the revised Strategic Plan. We have now finished the 8.3 million dollar heating and cooling replacement for the campus. The new system does not simply replace one which included terracotta pipes, but which reduces our utility bill by a third (making us much more green). The interim Chapel in the Lettie Pate Evans auditorium will be operational for the new semester; 1823 is the new small dining room a place to gather and have a bite to eat; and the million dollar gift from Episcopal High School has enabled a transformed Butterfly House to emerge, which will take babies to pre-Kindergarten. This is a season when we make the campus fit for purpose for the 21st century. In one sense, the construction of buildings is the easy part. Raise the money, work with a good team, find an excellent architect, and the new building slowly emerges. However, seminaries need to be equally attentive to the building of new programs and lives for the future. We needed to replace our heating and cooling system because the old one was no longer working effectively. By analogy we need to be willing to look at cherished programs and be willing to replace aspects of those programs if we decide that they are no longer working effectively.
In one sense, the construction of buildings is the easy part... however, seminaries need to be equally attentive to the building of new programs and lives for the future.
So a flexible Master of Arts degree is emerging. This M.A. has a range of imaginative delivery platforms from intensives to hybrid. Our partnership with Christ Church, Alexandria is creating a new alternative a Ministry in Residence program which involves two years of study on the Holy Hill coupled with a two year residence at a major regional congregation. We are building new and different ways to study for ministry here at Virginia Theological Seminary. Meanwhile, each and every one of us is a construction project. We need to become vehicles of Gods grace and love. And like a potter working with clay, we need to invite God to work on our lives. This is the traditional work of formation, which the Seminary does so well. And the home of this formation for every seminary is the Seminary Chapel. This is the construction project which will dominate the next few years. Progress is being made. The people of God are being generous; Robert A. M. Stern has been appointed the architect; the Chapel for the Ages Building Committee has received input from the listening sessions; and slowly over the next few years a chapel will emerge. In the end the work of construction must be--and needs to be--the work of God. Johann Sebastian Bach would add the initial SDG after a composition. SDG means Soli Deo Gloria to the Glory of God alone. May all this construction buildings, programs, and lives have appended after SDG. Yours in Christ,

Gods Great Why Not?

by the Rt. Rev. Michael B. Curry
and made room and space for the other to be and to be in relationship with others. Creation is a network and community of others in relationship. Were meant to be family. Im convinced that that is what the Adam and Eve story is in part trying to get us to see. Surely you remember that happy Ozzie and Harriet couple. If you think about it, as long as Adam and Eve are in a loving communion relationship with God, each other and creation, they are in paradise. When that network of relationships is fractured and broken by sin, they are cast out of the garden, cast out of Eden, cast out of paradise. We were made to be family. Gods been trying to tell us that for a long time. Read the rest of the Bible. God gets frustrated with the way we have messed things up and tries to start all over again. But it doesnt work. Thats what the Noah story is about. Noah doesnt get it. After being saved from The Flood, you would think hed go to church and change his ways. But oh, no; Noah has Happy Hour. So God tries again with Abraham and Sarah. Abraham becomes the ancestor of Jews, Christians and Muslims. But do you think we get along now? No. We still dont get it. So God keeps trying. He sends a Moses to set folk free. Go down, Moses, way down in Egypt-land. Tell ole Pharaoh, let my people go. God made everybody to be free. He gave Moses Ten Commandments, pointing us in the direction of right relationship with God and each other. We still didnt get it, continually creating golden calves of our own design. God then sent judges, kings, prophets - Amos, Hosea, Joel, Isaiah, Daniel, Ezekiel, Isaiah, Obadiah, Nahum, Haggai, Zephaniah, Zechariah, Malachi, Micah. God even sent folk to teach ways of wisdom. And still we didnt get it. So finally God essentially said, Ill go down and show them myself. And the word became flesh and dwelt among us.1 Thats where Jesus comes in.
God came among us in the person of Jesus of Nazareth to show us the way and to open the way to be right and reconciled with the God and Father of us all. And to be right and reconciled with each other as children of that one God and Father of us all. Let me say it another way. Jesus has shown us the way to become more than merely the human race. He has shown us the way to become the human family of God. And in that we will live out Gods great why not. In that is nothing less than our hope and our salvation for humanity and all of creation. Some folk see things as they are and ask, Why? We who would follow in the footsteps of Jesus dream things that never were and ask, Why not? II So whats the big deal about becoming the human family of God? Please dont be offended by what Im about to say, but if you think about it, being a member of the human race is not that much of an accomplishment. Dont misunderstand me. Being human is a good thing. Its a point of departure. But its not the end game. Its not really an accomplishment. None of us did anything to become part of the human race. All we did was show up. While Woody Allen may be right that half of life is just showing up, I would dare say that if those of you who graduate today had only shown up for class, you probably would not be receiving a degree today. Being a member of the human race is not that much of an accomplishment. Its really a matter of basic biology. If I remember my eighth grade biology lesson, all living things do three things in some form. They breathe, they eat, they make more living things. Respiration, consumption, reproduction. Thats a good thing. It means youre alive. But Ive got a cat who does that. Surely this is not the height of human achievement or the pinnacle of human accomplishment. And the truth is, Jesus taught us as much. Remember what he said in Matthews Sermon on the Mount? Is not life more than food, the body more than clothing?...
Consider the lilies of the fieldthe birds of the air.2 Are you not of more value than even those precious creatures of God? How does the old song say it? I sing because Im happy. I sing because Im free. His eye is on the sparrow. And I know he watches me. Being a member of the human race is a good thing, but its not the end game. It is not enough. There is more to it than that. Jesus came to show us the way to become more than merely the human race. Jesus came to show the way to become the human family of God. And there we will discover Gods great why not. And in that is our hope and salvation. III Im convinced this is in part what Johns Gospel is trying to tell us in his version of the passion of Jesus. Jesus is clearly dying on the cross. Probably fading in and out of consciousness, he looks and, through sweat and blood co-mingled, sees his mother standing not far from the one male disciple who had not abandoned him. And, summoning one final moment of strength, he speaks to his mother, probably angling his head in the direction of the disciple nearby: Woman, behold your son. And to the disciple he says, Behold your mother. The Gospel then says, And from that hour the disciple took her to his own home. In that moment a new human community, a new family, the family of God, was being formed. And when that happens, when that man takes that woman as his own mother, it is then that the Gospel says that Jesus, knowing all was now finished, soon cried aloud, It is finished, it is accomplished, it is done, the work I came to do is done, the salvation I came to bring has been accomplished. It is finished. 3 In that moment Jesus who said, I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself, 4 beheld the formation of Gods human family. A family born, not of blood or of the will of the

Meanwhile, standing near the cross of Jesus were his mother, and his mothers sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene. When Jesus saw his mother and the disciple whom he loved standing beside her, he said to his mother, Woman, here is your son. Then he said to the disciple, Here is your mother. And from that hour the disciple took her into his own home. - John 19:25-27
he late George Bernard Shaw once said, Some men see things as they are and ask, Why? I dream things that never were and ask, Why not? Why not? Why not a world where no child will ever go to bed hungry again? Why not a world in which poverty is truly history, a thing of the past? Why not a world in which every person is a child of God, and our personal and social relations and communities are structured around that truth? Why not a world where we lay down our swords and shields by the riverside to study war no more? Why not a world in which our air is pure and our water clean and there is water and food for all? Why not a world that reflects less the nightmare of our human devising than the dream of Gods creating? Why not?
I I am a follower of Jesus because I believe he has shown us how to live in the direction of what I would like to call Gods great why not. And I want to suggest that Jesus has done it by both opening the way and showing the way to be right and reconciled with the God and Father of us all. He has done it by opening the way and showing the way to be right and reconciled with each other as children of the one God who is the Creator of all. God has been trying to get us to see that for a long time. I once heard Sir Jonathan Sacks, Chief Rabbi in Great Britain, say that before God called creation into being there was only God. But when God said let there be something else beside God, it was as though God moved himself over

flesh or of the will of man, but of God.5 A family for whom there is no east nor west.6 A family in which there is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female. 7 The human family of God. That is Gods great why not. Dont dismiss this as a nice, but impractical, idea. When I went off to college, my father sort of gave me the father-to-son lecture, one last time. He tried to be subtle about it but I knew exactly what he was doing. Now that Im the father of two daughters and now a grandfather I really know exactly what he was doing. He said a number of things, but I remember one thing in particular, and it has stayed with me these many years. He said, Remember to treat every girl the way you want somebody else to treat your sister. There was a part of me that was thinking, You just ruined four years of college. But he was right. And he was saying something pretty significant. Treat every girl the way you want somebody else to treat your sister, because she is your sister. Treat every boy the way you want somebody else to treat your brother, because he is your brother. Treat every woman the way you want somebody else to treat your mother, because she is your mother. Treat every man the way you want somebody else to treat your father, because he is your father. The love, the care, the concern, the compassion, the sense of justice that you have

for your own flesh and blood is what you are to have for every man, woman and child --because we are all children of the one God and Father who created us all. Build homes on that. Build societies on that. Build a global village on that, and you will find how for humanity and all of creation we would have a different world, a different social order if we lived that way. Children would not go hungry. Truth would be declared in the public square. We would care for each other and for Gods creation. This would be a different world. Now I know someone may be thinking, all right, preacher, this all sounds good in church, but its a cold, calculating world out there. And theyve got a point. The depth of sin and the ubiquity of evil are real. Ive been around a bit. And Ive seen what hatred and strife and bigotry and enmity and violence can do. Unchecked, they will consume us all and devour the whole creation. Theres a wall in the homeland of Jesus, a wall that separates Gods Israeli children from Gods Palestinian children. But walls of hatred and division are not the way. Ephesians says that Jesus has broken down the dividing wall of sin. 8 War and hatred and prejudice are not the way. I was in Burundi just after ten years of civil war between Tutsi and Hutu nearly destroyed the land and her people, leaving 250,000 people dead and a half million people refugees in Tanzania. Hatred and
8 Ephesians 2:14
bigotry and violence are not the way. I served for 12 years as Rector of St. James, Baltimore. In the 80s and 90s when crack cocaine took over our city streets, I found myself burying far too many young men gunned down in drive-by, drug-related shootings. I sat with too many mothers weeping for innocents gunned down in drive-bys. Thats not the way. Many Latino and Hispanic people working here in America live in fear of midnight raids and traffic stops. Here in America. Muslims in America live with anxiety and fear. That is not the way. Hatred in any form is not the way. Bigotry against anybody, even when it masquerades as religious theology or political ideology, is not the way. Violence is not the way. Injustice is not the way. Dr. Kings words ring with eternal truth: We shall either learn to live together as brothers and sisters, or we shall perish together as fools. The choice is ours, chaos or community. As St. Paul would say, Jesus has shown us a still more excellent way. If I speak in the tongues of mortals and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong, a clanging cymbal. Now faith, hope and love abide, these three; and the greatest of these is love. 9 Jesus has shown us the way. Here is what it is all about: You shall love the Lord your God, and your neighbor as yourself.10 This is not naive. This is our hope and salvation. Jesus has shown us the way. So, why not?
IV A few months ago I was in Botswana in Southern Africa to lead a mission as part of our dioceses companion relationship with Bishop Trevor Mwamba and the good people of the Anglican Diocese of Botswana. Some years before, when we were beginning that relationship between our two dioceses, I traveled the Diocese of Botswana with the Bishop, visiting various congregations and ministries. The Mothers Union and Diocese operate several daycare centers for young children. Because of the spread of HIV/AIDS, many of the children are orphans being raised by extended family members, and many are also HIV-positive themselves. The last daycare center that we visited was at St. Peters Church in an impoverished section of Gaborone, the capital city. We pulled into the courtyard in a van and were greeted by the priest, Fr. Andrew. Ive now gotten to know him and his wife over the years. They are two remarkably humble and holy people of God who have dedicated their lives to saving children in the Name of Jesus. Father greeted us and took us to the far side of the courtyard where the children were sitting on the grass in the shade, listening to Bible stories and singing songs. As we walked toward them they stood up and sang, Good morning to you, good morning to you. Fr. Andrew introduced us. We shared in story time and singing. If youre happy and you know it, clap your hands. Praise ye the Lord, Hallelujah. And then we sang this song with the children, many of whom were orphans, some HIV-positive themselves, all desperately poor:
Jesus loves me, this I know, for the Bible tells me so. Little ones to him belong, they are weak but he is strong. Yes, Jesus loves me. Yes, Jesus loves me. Yes, Jesus loves me. The Bible tells me so.
The love, the care, the concern, the compassion, the sense of justice that you have for your own flesh and blood is what you are to have for every man, woman and child because we are all children of the one God and Father who created us all.
And with that, Father dismissed the children for playtime. And off they went running as children will do, to the playground on the other side of the courtyard. That is, all except one little girl of maybe four or five years of age. I had noticed that she was sitting in a chair, whereas the other children were sitting on the grass. But I hadnt noticed that she had a crutch. So she didnt run. Very deliberately she took the crutch in her hands, staked it in the ground and pulled herself up out of the seat. And very painfully and slowly she began to walk in the direction of the playground.
As we watched, Fr. Andrew said that the daycare director regularly checks the neighborhood for children in need. She heard about this little girl and visited her home. She was being cared for by her grandparents. Her parents had died from complications of HIV/AIDS. She herself was bedridden. As it turned out, she had polio. The grandparents allowed St. Peters and the public health service to work with her. Medical treatment, physical therapy, prayer and love went to work. When she first went to St. Peters she was in a wheelchair. By the time we were there, she was walking with that crutch. But as Father was telling us this, she continued to walk haltingly and painfully toward the other children. Then she fell. But she didnt stay down. She did what she had been taught: with amazing grace and sheer determination she took that crutch, staked it in the ground, pulled herself up and kept walking until she reached the other children. She fell a second time before she actually reached the other children. As this was happening Father Andrew said, We believe that God has something better in store for every child. And its our job to help each child find out what that is, and then live. My brothers and sisters, we who follow Jesus believe that God has something better in store for this world. Weve seen it in Jesus. Weve heard it in the Gospel. And it is our job to help this world find out what that is, and then live. Graduates of Virginia Theological Seminary, we need you to go into the world in the Name of Jesus to help us find out what that is, and live. We need

Passing it On...
by the Rev. Sandy Webb (VTS 10)
In 1995, Virginia Seminary senior, Andrew Rollins, bought a red stole for his diaconal ordination in Richmond. The next year, he gave it to Theron Walker, a close friend in the Class of 1996, and a tradition was born. Rollins stole has passed from senior to senior at Virginia Seminary for the last 16 years.
he stole was offered to me one Saturday morning in January 2010. The General Ordination Examinations were less than a day behind me, and I had just attended the priestly ordination of Jennifer Andrews-Weckerly, one of my closest friends in the Class of 2009. Jennifer asked me to wait for her at the back of the church in which the ordination had been held. She wanted to talk with me before I left for home, but she didnt tell me why. She didnt tell me that I was about to be inaugurated into a venerable Virginia Seminary tradition. Minutes after her priestly ordination, Jennifer told me the story of Rollins stole, and invited me to become a part of its lineage. She offered the stole to me just as Rollins had offered it to Walker so many years before, and I was honored to receive it.
they wore the stole, some had families, and at least one was pregnant. Yet, despite this diversity, we have each invested Rollins stole with our ordination day prayers, and in a very special way, we all stand together every time a new deacon does the same. There are only three guidelines for selecting new stewards of Rollins stole: Recipients must be graduating seniors at Virginia Seminary, they must wear the stole at their diaconal ordination, and they must be willing to pass it on. When I received Rollins stole, I asked my predecessor how I should choose my successor. She smiled and said to me, Youll just know. She was right, and I have now passed the stole along with the same instructions: Youll just know who should have it next. Stewards of Rollins Stole: (with the location and date of their diaconal ordination) Andrew Rollins All Saints Church Richmond, VA June 12, 1995
Passing it on: in 2009, a very pregnant Jennifer Andrews-Weckerly received the Rollins stole from the Rev. Charles L Fischer III (right). Also pictured is the Rev. Jody Burnett (VTS 09).
Rollins would later tell me that his tradition was inspired by the graduation gowns at Sewanee, which are passed from senior to senior, and embroidered with the initials of each recipient. Mine would become the seventeenth name embroidered on the inside of Rollins ordination stole. It is difficult to describe the feeling that a deacon experiences when a stole is draped over his left shoulder for the very first time. That feeling is particularly warm when he is being wrapped simultaneously in the names of so many of his Virginia Seminary forebears. All sorts of alumni are named on Rollins stole. We are theologically diverse, and our ministries have followed different paths. Both genders are represented, as are different races. Some were young when
The Rollins stole, pictured with the latest addition of Rebecca Edwards, has been passed down for over 15 years. It originally belonged to Andrew Rollins (VTS 95).

Special Section: Under Construction
UNDER CONSTRUCTION
How We Build
According to the grace of God given to me, like a skilled master builder I laid a foundation, and someone else is building on it. Each builder must choose with care how to build on it. For no one can lay any foundation other than the one that has been laid; that foundation is Jesus Christ.
1 Corinthians 3:10-11
ver the past few years at Virginia Seminary--the last year in particular--we have talked a lot about building: the building of a new chapel to meet the needs of a 21stcentury institution; the building of a new day-care center; the building of relevant academic programs; and most importantly, the building up of vibrant, well-equipped leaders for the church. The assumption, of course, is that what we build begins with the cornerstone of Jesus Christ. Without it, our work and all of our plans are moot; we might as well build upon sand. With it, we are assured that, no matter how difficult or desperate our situation becomes, we can always count on the foundation of love, grace, and forgiveness that is in Jesus Christ, and begin anew. In this next section of the Journal, you will read about various building projects, physical and spiritual, such as the Rev. Randy Haycocks story about his work with soldiers returning from war or Barbara Fishers story about rebuilding a church that has been spiritually torn apart. Throughout these and other narratives the message is clear - with Jesus Christ as our foundation, there is always hope of rebuilding from the ashes. There is always a future and there is always Gods grace to guide us through.

Under Construction: Campus Projects
The Butterfly House spreads its wings: Over the

course of the summer, the Mollegen Gym was transformed into a viable play and learning space for children. The connector between the Butterfly House and the gym was widened (ADA compliant); the top floor of the gym was transformed into office space (with an additional kitchen); a kitchen and two small sinks (for art projects) were added to the lobby of the gym; windows and new lighting were added; and the tennis courts were seeded with grass and will become the new playground with space for a VTS community garden. Monica Wong (pictured below), daughter of VTS staff member, Andrea Kramer, seems pleased with the changes.
PROJECT 1: The Butterfly House
n January 2011, Virginia Seminary signed an historic $1million partnership agreement with Episcopal High School to renovate the Seminarys Butterfly House. In exchange for funding, the day-care center agreed to open its doors to the children of EHS faculty, staff, and administration. This past summer, construction of the new facility began. Headed by Director, Anne Lowry, the new space (formerly the Seminarys gymnasium) features a new kitchen, tables and chairs, brightly colored walls, a second floor of offices, and ample space to house approximately 48 children. Overseen by Dave Mutscheller, physical plant director, and Heather Zdancewicz, vice president for administration and finance, the team of Advanced Project Management and TWIN contracting transformed the space on time and within budget. Working in the Butterfly House are Anne Lowry, Faye Gravina, Judith Harrington, Mary-Catherine Lewis, and Clara Moore.

PROJECT 2: 1823 Cafe

On May 16, the Rt. Rev. James J. Shand, chair of the Seminarys Board of Trustees, led a ribbon cutting ceremony for the new 1823 Cafe. Formerly the Small Dining Room in the Refectory, 1823 seeks to serve both the themes of hospitality and community by offering late-night meals to guests, a place to watch sports and to hear live music, and a place where friends from the neighborhood can have a drink and possibly hear live music. It is a place where imaginative soft drinks and coffee are served, along with beer and wine, and it is a public space where all should feel comfortable.

Better Heating and Cooling: The Central Plant Project was a three year endeavor to build a new Central Plant & Site Hydronic Piping through the VTS campus. Located adjacent to the Maintenance Shop, the Central Plant houses the new magnetic bearing chillers and high efficiency condensing boilers.
Built as a green building, the Central Plant is energy efficient and includes a green roof of plant material. Pictured above is Assistant Physical Plant Manager, Mike Widenhofer.

PROJECT 4: Pipe Replacement

The pipe replacement project began last December and took six months to complete. It seemed that every inch of campus was dug up and surrounded by orange construction fencing, a part of our every day esthetic. From the new Physical Plant, an updated system of piping extends to all the commercial buildings providing a four-pipe system. VTS now has the ability to run heating and cooling at the same time year-round in new or remodeled buildings going forward. Last summer and into the fall a full basement was dug beneath Wilmer Hall. Originally a small crawl space, the basement was needed for pumps that would support the piping distribution system for the plant. Now a complete basement exists below the guest house with plenty of room for all the equipment.

PROJECT 5: The Lettie Pate Evans Interim Chapel
Transforming Worship: In March 2011, the work of turning the Lettie Pate Evans Auditorium into an interim chapel began. First, the
theater-style seating and the stage were removed; the floor was then leveled, covered in concrete, and tiled; the stage area was walled up and turned into a Sacristy; new lighting and an audio system were installed; scrims for better acoustics were hung; a dais and chairs were placed; and the altar was installed and dressed just in time for the first day of school. The transformation of the auditorium into a place of worship was ably led by the Rev. Roger Ferlo, Ph.D., associate dean and director of the Seminarys Institute for Christian Formation and Leadership, and Mr. Dave Mutscheller, director of Physical Plant.
What we have created is a simple, functional place of prayer that will take us through the next few years, said Ferlo. We are grateful to Mr. Terry Byrd Eason who designed the space for us.

Under Construction: Meditation
Sacred Space
A 2011 Ascention Day Meditation by the Most Rev. Frank T. Griswold
The Ascension of Jesus Christ, which we celebrate today, touches upon

different modes of encounter with divine presence: The physical presence of Jesus for 40 days following the Resurrection; the expansion of that presence as it fills the universe, signified by the Ascension; and the continuing and immediate presence of Christ, teaching us and leading us toward the future through the agency of the Holy Spirit, who draws from the deep well of truth, found in the risen One who declares, I am the truth.
As we consider plans for the new chapel, I find myself thinking about the significance of sacred space in relation to these modes of presence and encounter. First of all, a chapel is physical and, as such, it bears witness to the physicality of the Incarnation and all that flows from it. Just as the physical presence of the risen Christ allowed the disciples to inhabit the reality of resurrection, so too sacred space, in all its physical particularity, can help us to inhabit the mystery of our redemption. Sacred space also speaks of Christ, both in its design and in what it contains. Then, the Liturgy, for which sacred space provides the context, bears witness to another mode of presence: the living presence of Christ in word and sacrament and in the gathered community. In our worship, Christ, the risen One, encounters us in the signs and symbols which constitute the ritual patterns of our common prayer. As such, they draw us beyond ourselves, or rather the Spirit who pours the love of God into our hearts leads us into the force field of Christs deathless love for the world. Sacred space, therefore, points beyond itself, and opens the way to the sacred space of all creation, and to Gods desire that what God has declared good be treated with reverence and care. Sacred space, be it a chapel or church is dangerous space because rather than providing safety, the multiple modes of Christs presence, enabled by the Spirit, expose us to encounters that may demand far more from us than we can ask or imagine.

Robert A.M. Stern Architects Selected to Design VTS Chapel
t their May 2011 board meeting, the Trustees of Virginia Theological Seminary voted unanimously to appoint Robert A.M. Stern Architects to design the Seminarys new Chapel for the Ages. The new worship space will replace the Seminarys 129-year old chapel that was destroyed by fire in October 2010. The Board decision to go with a company of Stern's stature was a wise one, said the Very Rev. Ian S. Markham, Ph.D., VTS dean and president. This is a complex building with a multitude of factors that need to be taken into account: a ruin, the preservation obligations, our contemporary and liturgical needs, as well as the continuing debate around location. Robert A.M. Stern Architects, LLP, is a 220-person firm of architects, interior designers, and supporting staff. Led by Robert A.M. Stern, the firm has established an international reputation as a leading design firm with wide experience in residential, commercial, and institutional work. Over its 42year history, the firm has diversified its geographical scope to include projects in Europe, Asia, South America, and throughout the United States. Stern himself is Dean of the Yale School of Architecture, a practicing architect, teacher, and writer. He is a Fellow of the American Institute of Architects, and received the AIA New York Chapter's Medal of Honor in 1984 and the Chapter's President's Award in 2001. Stern is the 2011 Driehaus Prize laureate and in 2008 received the tenth Vincent Scully Prize from the National Building Museum. He is the recipient of numerous awards, including the AIA New York Chapters Presidents Award in 2001 and the Board of Directors Honor from the Institute of Classical Architecture and Art in 2007. He is a prolific writer and the subject of many more books. The team assembled by Stern Architects includes Grant F. Marani (Project Partner), Charles P. Toothill (Project Architect and Construction Administrator), Rosa Maria Colina (Project Manager) and Philip Chan (Interior Designer). Stern, Marani, and Toothill were responsible for the exceptional and striking Stern Chapel at Salve Regina University in Newport, Rhode Island.
A Look at Possibilities: In August, members of the Seminarys Chapel Executive Committee took a trip to New York to meet with architect Robert Stern and his colleagues and to look at possible chapel models.

and more bamboo was added. In time, the P-40 was off the bottom and word was sent downriver that the Americans could fetch their fighter. He did not force the point home. The lesson was ended. He simply repeated, Dont try to make a difference. Just cut for a while. Put the vines in the burn pile and walk away. We worked hard, hacking at the briars, which tore at our arms as we cut. Time passed. The sky turned dark. A very satisfying mound of vines was ready to burn. When I looked back at the briar patch, you couldnt really tell that any were missing. We walked away to clean up and get some dinner. That evenings work in Hot Springs became important to our thru-hike of the Appalachian Trail. We could never plan out the hike all the way to Katahdin in the Maine wilderness. We could only look to what came next. There was no real way to hike all the way from Georgia to Maine, at least not at the practical dayby-day level. We could merely hike the next miles in front of us, as far as we could on any given day.

Thorny Problems Call for a Slower Pace
Others have remarked on the growth of King of Peace Episcopal Church in Kingsland, saying that the move from three of us to a thriving parish was a quick one. A successful preschool, an active Scout program and more seemed to sprout up on their own. Yet, it only happened fast in the way that someone elses pregnancy seems quick, or someone elses son is noticeably taller every time you see him. In the work of church planting, as with all church work, there are some times when one can see a real difference, but mostly being the church involves steady work with little sign week by week that change is occurring. Even relatively quick gains in attendance come one person, one couple or family at a time, with each taking months or years to go from casually attending newcomers to committed members who are taking their own part in the churchs reaching out in love to its community.

Dont try to make a difference, the Jesuit monk told us. Everyone is always trying to make a difference and it just wears them out and doesnt help, he added.
It was, for me, a challenging statement. My wife, Victoria, and I were hiking the entire Appalachian Trail in a single hike. We found ourselves on this spring evening at the Jesuit-run hostel in Hot Springs, North Carolina. The offer was that hikers could stay for free in exchange for doing some work on the grounds. The task before us was a briar patch that would have given Brer Rabbit a kingdom unto himself. He had handed us gloves and loppers and asked that we spend an hour or so working on cutting and stacking to burn the interlacing arches of photosynthesisfueled razor wire. The monk saw that gleam in my eye and recognized the particular version of the sin of pride at once. He knew in that glance what I felt deep in my bonesI would be the one to work so hard that I could make a noticeable dent in the mountain of thorny vines. It couldnt be more than a half-acre or so, an acre at the most, I thought, I can punch a noticeable hole in that. Some work requires patience, he told us. There is no quick solution. Working steadily without looking for immediate change can accomplish so much more. Just keep at it, he said, then added, Just cut for a while, stack the dead branches in the burn pile and walk away. Its not your job to finish it. This was a lesson we needed to hear. We had picked a lot bigger goal than knocking back a massive patch of weeds. Victoria and I were 270 miles into a 2,150-mile long hike along the backbone of the East Coast.
The Jesuit then launched into a story he knew I needed to hear. He said, During World War II, a pilot with the Flying Tigers had engine problems and parachuted out just ahead of his P-40 splashing down hard in a forgotten stretch of a Burmese river. The Army Air Force eventually got a crew up the river to try to rest the fighter from its muddy grave, but using the little crane and what other equipment they could fit on the boat, the men could not begin to budge the plane. As they worked, the airmen were watched by the people of a nearby village. As the group was packing to leave, the village headman spoke through an interpreter asking if the village raised the machine, would the Americans buy it back from them. The translator relayed that a deal would definitely be struck. The Flying Tigers were so in need of planes, the ground crew was patching one together with spare parts to get another fighter flying. The Jesuit paused for effect, he was a natural preacher and a congregation of two was just fine with him. As the sun lowered somewhere beyond the mountains and the shadows deepened in the briar patch, he forged ahead, The Americans and the mechanical muscle gone, the plan was simple. The people of the village were directed by their chief that every time they swam in the river, those who could do so should dive down to the plane and work a short length of bamboo up into the fuselage. Every day, a little more bamboo was worked into the cockpit. Once that area was packed with bamboo, they used vines to get bamboo under any part exposed above the mud. Slowly the plane lifted

or Eucharist to change your life, just keep returning to the altar. The daily and weekly rhythms of worship and service are not for naught, even if we see no change after daily prayer and reading, for a week, a month, or a year. Victoria has gotten us exercising again. My wife and I have been at it for a little more than a month. We have cut back on the food we eateating less, but better. We are exercising at least six days a week. And yet, weeks into the process, I see no real change. The pounds have not melted away. I am not ready to kick sand in the face of the bully at the beach. The goal is to feel better next year than we do this year. After letting ourselves fall out of shape over a period of years, we will need time to get fit. So as I look to the fitness of my body and the health of the Diocese and my own spiritual journey, I think back to night falling on a mountain of briars seemingly untouched by our efforts and to a fighter jet slowly being filled with short, fat sections of bamboo. The task for today is not to make a difference in my health, or to change the Diocese of Georgia for the better. Before the day is out, I should expect no spiritual epiphany. Today, I just need to be faithful to the portion of the path beneath my feet and the sights and sounds of the journey. Frank Logue is Canon to the Ordinary for the Diocese of Georgia. Before joining the diocesan staff in July of 2010, he served as founding rector of King of Peace Episcopal Church in Kingsland, Georgia.

Building Upon the Cornerstone

efore I went to seminary I worked for 18 months for my father-inlaws construction company. It was a wonderful experience and I learned a lot about what makes a construction project successful, and what can cause it to fail. Now, living in a brand new neighborhood, I like to put my little knowledge to the test as I watch new homes being put together. My favorite guys to watch arent the bricklayers or the framers, but the guys who stake-out the house. This is the most important job in the construction process because these guys and gals define the shape of the house; and most importantly measure over and over again to be sure everything is square. Their stakes and string are the guides by which the foundation crew digs and pours. From there on out, a house that is not truly square will become more and more difficult to build, leaving windows crooked, trim bowed, and, as is the case in my bathroom, a tile floor that is way out of line. Making sure the house is square is the most important job in the project. Construction has changed a lot since the first century, but one thing remains true; if the layout is not square, the project is destined to fail. That is the image that Peter works with in his letter. We as living stones each have a place within the Fathers house. We are called to lay ourselves, one upon the other, to build the
by The Rev. Steve Pankey (VTS 07)
For it stands in scripture: See, I am laying in Zion a stone, a cornerstone chosen and precious; and whoever believes in him* will not be put to shame. - I Peter 2:6
kingdom of God here on earth and our guide to square and true is none other than the rejected cornerstone, Jesus Christ. Our job as Christians is to line ourselves up with him. The example of his life defines for us what it means to live out the will of God. To align ourselves with him allows us to bring into this world the way of God; one of justice, freedom, hope, and love. Sometimes, however, it isnt easy to keep ourselves aligned. Often our first attempt at laying down square and true leaves us a little out of line. We dont trust the cornerstone. We dont trust the other living stones around us, and want to do it ourselves. This inevitably leads to a version of the Fathers house that isnt quite true. Windows are crooked. The trim work doesnt fit quite right. Others who have lined up with us lie down a more and more out of square wall. And, in the end, the building is brought to ruin. To trust our own ability to see the will of God is to take the cornerstone our guide in a life of building the Fathers house to take his job of keeping it all square and true away from him. And, in the end, the wall falls down. But that is not the end of the story because the cornerstone remains, and we are called again and again to align ourselves to him. It may take many attempts. There will be mini-successes and many failures along
the way, but the cornerstone will not waiver. We will get momentary glimpses of the Fathers house as the everlasting construction project goes on, until that day when the Father determines it is finished. We continue the work because we are called to be a holy nation, a royal priesthood, and Gods own people. We have no choice but to continue to work with what began in Christ Jesus; that of bringing creation that is crooked and out of sorts back in line with the rejected cornerstone; that of setting the world right-side-up by following Jesus who is the way, the truth, and the life. We do this by following his example of compassion, of love, and of mercy. We do this by reaching out to the poor, proclaiming freedom to those enslaved by sin, by loving our neighbor as our self, by protecting Creation, and by living as servants of the most high God. We are sustained in this journey by coming to the table where the bread and wine are the spiritual milk we crave, allowing us to taste that indeed the Lord is good. So, living stones, look to the cornerstone as an example and then lay yourself down square and true for the glory of God the Father. q

Grace in a Post-it Note

by the Rev. Alan Akridge and the Rev. Dr. Randy Ferebee
wo VTS graduates wind up serving the same church in a small city in North Carolina. One is the founding longtime Rector and the other is a lay youth and family minister three years out of seminary. The differences, and the edginess it added, began to mount. In this leadership dyad was an early Boomer and an early Xer. A (mild) conservative and a (mild) liberal. A passive process pro and an active get it done pro. One aims to minimize fallout and is concerned about who might be left out. The other, knowing that its impossible to please everyone, is concerned with making a substantive difference. One a father of two young children and the other a grandfather of four young children. One an introverted planner/preparer and the other an extroverted jack of all trades. Put them in adjoining offices for 50 hours a week and after six months, the tension is almost unbearable. I knew Randy was not the kind of person who would charge into my office and fire me but I also knew that he wanted too, said Ackridge. So one afternoon it all came to a head. But the explosion was never triggered. How did they pull back from the brink? It started with the truth. Alan said, You know, I am afraid you are going to fire me. Randy said, You know, I am afraid you are going to quit. And reconciliation began on a very pragmatic level because one needed a family minister and the other needed a job. We didnt really trust each other at that point, said Akridge, We both literally wrote non-cancelable contracts on post-it notes and exchanged them. Ten years later, I still have mine. It made all the difference in the world.
ing and cultivating opportunities to look up. (Colossians 3:2 MSG) BEYOND A FIX Their first thought was to find a fix. They both had been raised that way: to fix what was broken. They quickly learned that there was no fix. The more they focused on brokenness, the more they found. But the more we focused on the amazing stuff happening all around us, the more momentum we felt, said Ferebee The people with bright ideas introduced us to new ways of being leaders rather than new ways of doing leadership. When they stopped looking for silver bullets to fix the church and its leaders, they found that everything needed was already in place through the wisdom of the all the baptized. Epiphany Institute became not so much a small consulting business with learning modules more a collaborative collection of leaders reflecting the healthy diversity of vitality happening all over the landscape of the church. Along the way, they discovered more and more healthy, missional approaches to the post-Christendom reality of life in the 21st Century Church. Ideas which have the power to lift leaders out of narrow ideologies provide a robust grounding for mission in a new era. The space of a brief article in the Seminary Journal does not allow for the in-depth discussion needed to cover all the they have discovered. But examples include Appreciative Inquiry, asset based ministry, World Cafe structured conversations, the emerging church, generational theory, flattened hierarchies, and the missional movement to name a few. They have been blessed to learn from people like Amy and Mark Dyer, Reggie McNeal, Dwight Zscheile, Tim Geoffrion, Joe Stewart-Sicking, Fred Burnham, Hugh Magers, Gerry Sevick, Ibby Whitten, and many others who are shaping the future of parish leadership much more significantly than two co-workers who reached an impasse and discovered the grace of God on two post-it notes.

The Epiphany Institute

Epiphany Institute was founded in response to the challenges facing church leaders today. Inspired by real-world experience and developed by a consortium of veteran clergy, the Epiphany program addresses congregational development issues not in isolation, but as part of a comprehensive landscape. Drawing on the tradition of the Magi, Epiphany calls participants to Look Up to re-orient themselves to the light of Christ. Part retreat, part professional conference, this church development program provides the reflective opportunities needed for leaders own spiritual journey as well as the congregational tools and direction needed for guiding todays churches. The goal of Epiphanys conference center, parish and diocesan sponsored events is to help participants build competencies and assessment skills in various church leadership theories and developmental frameworks which are suited to the missional realities of the 21st Century.
How did two VTS alums and colleagues, from different generations and with very different philosophical and work styles, overcome their differences in order to work together?
in progress. But as the fireworks calmed down, interesting things began to happen. Later, when Akridge was ordained to the priesthood, they discovered that apart they were both good priests and leaders. But together, they were a great team with a broad pallet of leadership skills. Jesus, after all, sent the disciples out two-by-two. On the first clergy retreat attended by the pair, a number of priests and deacons gravitated to their large front porch overlooking Lake Logan for the usual postprogram fellowship. The conversations, though, were disheartening. Leader after leader expressed fatigue and lamented the challenges faced by ordained leaders in parish life. We almost felt guilty saying that life was good, said Ferebee. We had to acknowledge that even in the midst of what Bishop Mark Dyer called a 500 year Spiritual Yard Sale, we were prospering. We arrived at the conference center feeling pretty good and left with a burden, said Akridge. If we learned anything from our own challenges, it was that the status quo did not work. So they went on a quest to find a concept, or program, or conference that would help leaders intentionally build what they had found by accident. We found nothing of substance, said Ferebee. But with our bishops encouragement, we began to bring folks with bright ideas together with leaders who were searching for a better way. We knew we didnt want a conference. We knew we didnt want a retreat. And we knew we didnt want to be consultants. So we did something else instead. They founded an institute devoted to find-
In promising to work through difficulties without fear of reprisal, they built a leadership dynamic that was more like a healthy family. They discovered by accident that was exactly how healthy congregations were supposed to function! Confrontation began to turn into collaboration. Arguments turned into compliments. Sabotage turned into support. The parish saw it before we did, said Ferebee. They wanted us to know they were appreciating what they saw. There is a particular shape to wisdom when it is spoken by an Xer and another shape when Boomers speak. Older folks handle authority one way and younger ones another. Virtually everything that had been divisive in the past became a source of strength for parish leadership. The establishment of a simple post-it covenant built a bridge, helped in the transformation of their parish and their lives. Lest anyone think that tranquility ensued, not so. Reconciliation is hard work. Listening out of open minds is always a work

The Human Cost

by The Rev. Randy Haycock
of War
I was drawn to the War Memorial Chapel. As I sat in the chapel, I was overwhelmed with a sense of connectedness: with others who serve or have served in the military, with those who had made the ultimate sacrifice by laying down their lives for their friends, and with the thousands of friends and loved ones who had come into that space to remember and grieve their war dead. As I prayed, I thought of the warrior who had lost his battle buddy. Then, like a gift from heaven, the idea came to me: I need to bring those suffering from the emotional, relational, and spiritual wounds they have received during their military service into this chapel, this sacred ground, this energy field as my spiritual director later helped me to understand it. And it is sacred ground, not because its in one of the greatest cathedrals in the world, or simply because of the intentional use of art and military history by those who designed it, though that surely plays a part in the overall experience. It is sacred because of the heartfelt emotions, prayers, and tears which have been offered in it by countless human beings who have endured the real cost of war.
Chaplain Clinician, Walter Reed Army Medical Center
n April 2008, I was mobilized as an Army Reserve chaplain to serve at the Walter Reed Army Medical Centers Warrior Transition Brigade 1 and subsequently in the Intensive Care and Psychiatry Units in the hospital. Walter Reed is the military medical facility where the most severely wounded warriors come from the theater of war to receive care. I often tell people that there is probably as much heartache per square foot on the campus as anywhere in the world. For some, the wounds are quite obvious and involve the loss of limbs or essential bodily functions. For others, the wounds are not nearly as visible, but sometimes even more painful. The emotional, relational, and spiritual wounds are difficult to diagnose, and sometimes take years to heal. Several weeks after I arrived at Walter Reed, I had two counseling sessions with warriors in transition which shaped how

my ministry there would develop for the next three years. One counseling session was with a Special Operations officer who began our first meeting with the statement: Chaplain, I think Ive lost my soul. The second was with a young soldier who had lost both legs when an IED 2 exploded underneath the vehicle he was driving. Faced with tremendous losses in his own life, all he wanted to talk about was the battle buddy sitting next to him in the vehicle who didnt survive the blast. It should have been me, not him, he said. He has a wife and kids. Its not right. The following week I went to have lunch with a friend, the Very Rev. Sam Lloyd, Dean of the Washington National Cathedral. I first met Sam when we were both serving parishes in the Diocese of Chicago. Feeling a bit adrift in my new ministry environment, I was eager to connect with people in my own faith tradition which has nurtured me since childhood. I arrived at the cathedral about an hour before our lunch appointment, so I started to wander through that magnificent space looking for a place to pray.

journey, perhaps they might resolve to go to them and ask or offer forgiveness. If not, they are allowed some time to speak within their hearts, words of petition for or offering forgiveness. The spiritual/psychological purpose of the pilgrimage here is to address the survivors guilt which afflicts many who have come home from combat without those who helped keep them alive. Next, participants are asked to look around at and make eye contact with those who are sharing this pilgrimage with them. They represent all the people with whom we currently share the earthly journey in the present. Again they are asked to let their hearts fill gratitude: that we are never alone in life, even though we might feel that way. One of the effects of trauma and illness is that they tend to isolate us from others. Nobody could possibly understand what its like to be me. The intent here is to encourage participants to seek community so that they do not bear these burdens alone. Finally, participants are asked to face the high altar and look into their future. Because so many of our warriors are relatively young, the shear space between where they are standing in the cathedral and the high altar provides a vivid visual awareness that their lives still have so much opportunity in them, which is the foundation of hope. Once more, they are asked to let their hearts fill with gratitude for the many people, places, and experiences that await them as they journey on. The next phase of the pilgrimage takes us into the War Memorial Chapel. The artwork here represents all of the wars military members have served in from the Revolutionary War on, as well as many of the warrior saints. After taking in this space, participants sit in a circle and are given an opportunity to share some of what has brought them here. The intent here is to provide time for grief work to begin in a very real way sharing our burdens with others. The space itself evokes both a sense of connectedness, and sometimes, tears. From the War Memorial Chapel, partici-
pants move into the sanctuary and gather before the high altar. The meditation focuses on how all the major faith traditions of the world have ways of expressing our eventual reunion with those we have loved and lost to death. We listen to Eric Claptons Tears in Heaven which he wrote following the tragic death of his infant son. The refrain of the song expresses the intent here: I must be strong, and carry on, for I know I dont belong, here in heaven. The pilgrimage concludes with the military ritual of coming to the position of attention, calling off the names of the fallen comrades participants have come to remember and honor, and the sounding of taps. A holistic approach to healing is strongly encouraged and supported at Walter Reed. Drumming circles, informal prayer and/ or study groups, art and music therapy are some of the other ways that the deepest needs for healing and wholeness are addressed. It has been a tremendous privilege for me to provide pastoral care to our nations warriors for the past three years. As it often works in Gods economy, I feel that I have received from them much more than I have given. So much of my own faith has become alive and real in the experience. Two phrases in the Apostles Creed come to mind: He descended into hell and I believe (trust, literally) in the communion of saints. Edward Tick, a clinical psychologist who has worked extensively with veterans who served in Vietnam and other trauma survivors, writes in the acknowledgements of his book War and the Soul: I express my gratitude and respect to all veterans and survivors the world over who have entrusted me with their stories
and their healing and have shared with me the love that is known only in one way: except you share with them in hell. 3 My heart fills with gratitude for those who have shared with me the hells of their lives. And it fills as well for the many saints in my life, those with whom I currently share the earthly journey, and those who rest in peace and are risen in glory with Christ, who in the fullest measure shared our humanity, even to descend into hell. I now know, that in all the little hells of my journey, I am never alone. q A video clip of a pilgrimage filmed by PBS for their Religion and Ethics Newsweekly program, may be found at http://www. pbs.org/wnet/religionandethics/episodes/ by-topic/mind-body-spirit/pilgrimage-ofremembrance-and-healing/6779/.

Above: The Rev. Randy Haycock bers of his worship staff, especially Ellen Spencer, for graciously arranging for us to use the entire sanctuary and nave of the cathedral by ourselves, when it is closed to the public, in order to ensure privacy for the participants. The pilgrimage begins with a Life Journey exercise. Participants are asked to place themselves in the center aisle where they see themselves on lifes journey between birth (represented by the baptismal font at the entrance of the nave) and death/ eternity (represented by the high altar and reredos with its portrayal of Christ and the saints in glory). A series of meditations follow. After just glancing around at, and taking in, the immense space and intentional art of the cathedral, participants are asked to consider how large and abundant our lives really are, and how much of life often escapes our notice. The psychological/ spiritual purpose of this part of the Life Journey exercise is to assist participants to begin reframing the trauma, that is, to place experiences which presently overwhelm their life in the context of their whole life. Two of the most important life skills for us to learn as human beings, made in the image and likeness of God, are the practices of gratitude and forgiveness (both asking for it from those we have hurt or offended, and offering it to those who have hurt us). The practices of gratitude and forgiveness in relationships are the key ways we express our love for someone else. For Christians, the practices of gratitude and forgiveness are incarnated in the sacraments of the Eucharist (The Great Thanksgiving) and Reconciliation (the assumption of responsibility for our faults and the receiving of forgiveness). Participants are then asked to face the baptismal font and look back towards the beginning of their lives, and to remember the people, places, and experiences which have shaped who they are today. They are then encouraged to let their hearts fill with gratitude for those who have already shared the earthly journey with them (parents, siblings, relatives, friends, co-workers, and those they have loved and lost). Next they are asked to consider those they have offended or hurt, and those who have offended or hurt them. If those people are still part of their earthly

At lunch with Sam, and in later reflection, the idea began to take shape and came to life in a Pilgrimage of Remembrance and Healing. Drawing on the medieval understanding of pilgrimage as an intentional journey to experience Gods presence and healing in our lives, once a month we bring wounded warriors, family members, and caregivers who assist in their healing for an evening in the cathedral. I am extremely grateful to Sam, and the mem-

They can enroll full or part-time and register for courses delivered in a traditional classroom format, during intensive residencies in January and Summer terms, or in a hybrid manner, which is a combination of face-to-face and online instruction. The M.A. program makes use of creative instructional technologies such as the seminarys new Jenzabar course management platform, video conferencing, and electronic portfolios. While the structure of the M.A. degree is an important and exciting step for VTS, it is just the beginning of the Seminarys innovative use of educational technology. Advances in web technology have introduced user-centered capacities that have forever changed teaching and learning. What is commonly referred to as the Web 2.0 has introduced features and functionality that stimulate the creation and consumption of information through collaborative platforms. Today, social media such as Facebook, Twitter, and Linkedin are ordinary tools of daily living. Virtual communities exist in every domain of human interest, and digital video technologies keep families and friends connected across the globe. Ideas and conversations fill blogs and wikis. Video, music, and photo file sharing is considered a standard of practice in most American households. Being a healthy seminary today means interacting confidently with all of these technologies and having a vital presence on the global Web.

With the expertise of the VTS faculty and staff, the depth of our library collection, and the vision of its board VTS is positioned to facilitate extraordinarily rich opportunities for online biblical and theological learning. I look forward to participating in the ongoing discernment and innovation that is required to ensure VTS remains a trusted leader in an increasingly creative and competitive climate of global theological education. We welcome your ideas. How can VTS best support local congregations and dioceses/judicatories in the preparation of lay and ordained leaders for Christian mission?

fter a conflict has left the building and the dust begins to settle, what is the first step for rebuilding a faith community that has just weathered a major storm? For St. Peters Church, the answer to finding Gods vision came in a Vestry retreat process which embraced liturgical healing and generative governance through the utilization of Brueggemanns concept of lament, Appreciative Discernment, and Urys Third-siding. The first evening of our retreat, the Vestry used the 42nd Psalm as the opening foundation upon which to model the Discovery and Dream phases of the Appreciative Discernment process. After the Vestry members did the initial interviews in pairs, which involved sharing a remembrance item from a special time in the life of the parish, each person shared their dreams for the parish. The evening session concluded with a special service in the Nave that began with each Vestry member sharing the story of their remembrance item as it was placed on the family altar. A Lighting of the Dreams ceremony followed as each person lit a taper from the Paschal candle, and then placed the candle in an urn containing soil from the buildings foundation. A Litany of Thanksgiving for a Church was used to lead the service into the closing Eucharist. The first morning session of the retreat was based on the message of the Road to Emmaus (Luke 24:13-34), as the dual
recognition was made that the parish had been through a difficult time - but that God was still present and the Spirit would lead forth. The Vestrys training focused on how they would be the trainers of the lay leaders for whom they were liaisons, as well as the fact that they would also be the
to the moment on the temple step when he spoke to the beggar, what I have I give you; in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, stand up and walk, the Vestry members were invited to surround the altar area to be commissioned. The final segment of the retreat was for the newly commissioned Vestry to learn conflict management by becoming a Urys Third-sider, enabled to recognize and handle conflict. In May, the Vestry provided the Appreciative Discernment Discovery and Dream phase training for the lay leaders. Throughout July and August, the Vestry and the lay leaders have been involved in leading parish members through the Discovery and Dream phases of the Appreciative Discernment process. On September 17th, the entire parish has the opportunity to participate in an Appreciative Summit Retreat. All of the stories of the strength which has defined the parishs past, as well as the dreams for the future which have been shared, will facilitate the Design and Destiny phases of the Appreciative Discernment process. At the end of the Appreciative Summit Retreat, liturgical healing will once again become the focal point as the entire parish meets to walk from the past, through the present, and into the celebration of the future: A future that has been birthed through discovering stories, dreaming dreams, designing the vision, and embracing individual and communal roles within the destiny of that future. q
leaders for the parish-wide involvement. For the second session of the morning, the concept of generative governance was introduced to the Vestry members as a way for them to utilize the four phases of Appreciative Discernment to the fullest. After a community meal together, the participants met once again in the Nave and the foundational scriptures for the afternoon session became Ezekiel 37:1-14 and Acts 3: 1-10. An interpretive presentation of the Valley of Dry St. Peters was given, and a Burning Bowl ceremony challenged each Vestry members to be the catalyst by which the parish would rise.

he world is changing rapidly, driven significantly by the intersecting forces of politics, economics, demographics, religion and, of course, technology. Globalization, driven by appetites for freer, faster, and cheaper goods and services, is changing life in every sector. The metrics of excellence in all areas of higher education are being tested and, at times reluctantly, redefined. Theological education is not exempt from this redefinition. VTS is actively responding to a demand for quality, affordable theological education that does not require full-time residency. The newly accredited M.A. program that has replaced the former M.T.S. (Masters in Theological Studies) and M.A.C.E. (Masters in Christian Education) degrees offers increased flexibility and depth of study in preparation for innovative, transformational Christian leadership. The degree design, especially the summative project, prepares students to continue a rigorous academic path, perhaps toward doctoral work, or to apply new learning to current and future ministry. The program combines the strengths of residential formation with the flexibility of contemporary technologies. Working with a faculty advisor, students design a program plan with an identified

he Virginia Seminary delegation began its journey to Asia on the day after Commencement. New Testament Professor John Yieh organized the trip through his extensive connections and contacts in China. On the trip were Head Librarian and Professor Mitzi Budde and her husband, the Rev. John Budde, four current students: Shirley Porter, Margaret Peel, Shawn Strout, and Bernard Yung, and two 2011 graduates: The Revs. Josiah Rengers and Katherine Nakamura Rengers. VTS Professor Emeritus David Scott, who now lives in Germany in retirement, joined the group for the Hong Kong portion of the journey. The journey had four purposes: 1) to strengthen relationships with the church there through meetings with church leaders and VTS alumni; 2) to learn about theological education in each place through visits to seminaries and university divinity schools and meetings with deans, faculty, and students in these various places; 3) to give VTS students an intensive exposure to ministry in Hong Kong by shadowing parish clergy for 10 days in a mini-internship;

WORSHIP
The group experienced a variety of Sunday worship services. In Hong Kong, we attended one of six Sunday services at St. Johns Anglican Cathedral, an Englishlanguage service that was standing room only. Afterward, the dean of the Cathedral, the Very Rev. Andrew Chan, who on June 26 was elected to be the next Bishop of Western Kowloon, spent an hour with us explaining the cathedrals ministries, such as the emergency shelter, pro bono legal services, HIV-AIDS education center, and counseling services for immigrant domestic workers. St. Johns is rightfully proud to be colloquially known as the maids and AIDS church. On the second Sunday, in Beijing, we attended a Mandarin Chinese service at the Chongwenmen Church, which is a Three Self Patriotic Movement Church, with four services every Sunday. The service was packed with people, and we were warmly welcomed, even though we had arrived after the service had begun. Ushers led us to two pews with simultaneous translation equipment and bilingual English-Chinese hymnbooks so that we could participate in the worship. On the third Sunday, five of us attended the English-language Holy Eucharist at St. Alban's Anglican Church in Tokyo, while the four student interns in Hong Kong accompanied their priest hosts in worship at their respective parishes. We also visited Holy Trinity [Anglican] Cathedral in Kowloon where Florence Jee, current VTS student, and the Rev. Cora Hing-suen Ip were our hosts and guides, and the Anglican-Episcopal Church of Holy Spirit in Hong Kong where a VTS

Everywhere we went, we were welcomed by church leaders who gave generously of their time to share with us their thoughts and philosophies and experiences of ministry. Bishops, priests, and professors candidly related stories of successes and challenges in familiar yet different settings one faith, one ministry, but different cultures and languages. We got to know one another through guided tours of facilities and strengthened the bonds of friendship through shared table fellowship at traditional, formal luncheons and dinners. There, we learned the often subtle regional differences in customs and manners and the often dramatic differences in regional cuisines. At these gatherings and on planned excursions, we experienced as a group some of the richness of China and Japan, an experience that was then deepened for the students in their individual internships. We were almost always presented with local publications and gifts. For our part, as a token of our appreciation, we presented our hosts with brochures about VTS degree programs,

is an academic center that translates classic Christian texts into Chinese and sponsors academic studies of Christianity to deepen understanding of Christianity and facilitate research by university professors and scholars from mainland China. Many of the scholars from mainland China who come to study in the exchange program are not Christian, and the program is a way of introducing Christianity to people who are studying it for its historical and philosophical cultural texts. We also visited the Anglican-Episcopal Minghua Theological College, the official theological training center for the Province of Hong Kong and met with the Dean, the Very Rev. Ian Lam, and Dr. Phillip Wickeri. Although there are currently only ten postulates from the three dioceses of the province, the Anglican church in Hong
Kong has grown 40% in the past decade. The seminary is currently developing a new theological program, including a specialty in liturgics and a Master of Arts program in Religion and Education in conjunction with the University of Hong Kong School of Professional Studies. The seminary also hopes to deepen its connection with mainland China which has great need of leadership training and education for ordained and lay ministries. At the Hong Kong Baptist Theological Seminary, which we visited on prospective student day, President Joshua Cho and several faculty members told us about providing theological education for the largest Protestant body in Hong Kong. There are124 M.Div. students and 1,500 students in lay programs; the library has 120,000 volumes. A Sunday afternoon lay
program to prepare Philippino migrant workers for ministry draws 129 students to weekly classes. The curriculum at Hong Kong Baptist includes both western and Chinese philosophy because the school views cultivating Chinese identity in a post-colonial Hong Kong as of prime importance. In addition to providing theological education, the seminary also operates a publishing house. The seminary has a current initiative to improve its cooperation with TSPM/CCC and at the same time strengthen relationships with international Baptist bodies.

He spent almost two hours telling us about the history and mission of Hong Kong Sheng Kung Hui (the Anglican-Episcopal Church of Hong Kong) and graciously answered our questions regarding theological training, the ordination process, and controversies in the Anglican Communion. With more than 150 schools under his care in the Province, the Archbishop was particularly interested in the possibility of working with VTS on theological training and continuing education for school chaplains and religion teachers to strengthen their ministry in church schools. In Shanghai, the Rev. Bao Jiayuan of the China Christian Council /Three Self Patriotic Movement warned us that western estimates of Christianitys numbers in China are generally exaggerated, despite the tremendous growth the church is experiencing. The China Christian Council is the governing body of the Three Self Patriotic Movement Church, the government-recognized non-denominational Protestant church body in China. The group also heard about the Nanjing Amity Printing Press that the China Christian Council operates which publishes and distributes 3-4 million Bibles per year. The Chinese government has just turned
over the former Anglican cathedral in Shanghai for restoration as a church, in place of the movie theater that it had been since the Cultural Revolution. In Tokyo, we were hosted by VTS alumnus, the Rev. Kevin Seaver (05), who showed us the magnificent gothic-style Anglican chapel at St. Luke's International Hospital where he serves as chaplain and rector. He described the challenges and joys of hospital ministry in a country that is only about 1% Christian.
VISITS TO SEMINARIES AND DIVINITY SCHOOLS

The VTS group visited eight seminaries and university divinity schools in Hong Kong and China. In Hong Kong, we visited the picturesque mountaintop campus of Lutheran Theological Seminary. There, Dean Peter Li and Dr. Mabel Wu told us about the curriculum, formation program, and worship life of a denominational seminary that is living ecumenism with a multi-denominational student body of 320 day students and 170 evening students all studying for bachelors and masters degrees.

The Charter specifies that 51% of classes must be taught in Chinese. Our VTS international student from Hong Kong, Florence Jee, is an alumna of the undergraduate program at Chung Chi. At Minzu University in Beijing, we met with three faculty members, Dean Gong Yukuan, Professor Bin You and Professor Ho Qi-min, and five post-graduate students from the School of Philosophy, Department of Religious Studies to learn about the study of Christianity as a cultural artifact and as a philosophical system. No other mainline Chinese university has a program of religious studies. Professor Bin You, associate dean, is seeking to develop a publication project on comparative scriptures with scholars writing commentaries on each others sacred books. The three pillars of the schools approach are Marxist philosophy, classical western philosophy, and Chinese classics. The Hua Dong [East China] Theological Seminary just outside of Shanghai is a seminary of the Three Self Patriotic Movement Church. Five faculty members shared with us their views on why Christianity was growing so rapidly in Communist China in recent years and provided a tour of the facilities. The library contains

Dr. Renta Nishihara, vice-president of the University and professor in the Department of Christian Studies, was poignant as we discussed the recent earthquake and tsunami that the country had just suffered and the subsequent recent nuclear power plant meltdown. He described student trips to the disaster zone and shared with us a paper that he had written just after the events. In it, he wrote: In the midst of this tragedy, we believe that our mission as an Anglican University is to bring up students who have such sensitivity and empathy that they are able to bathe the feet of the neighborhood. The Rev. Dr. Yoshiaki Matsutani, professor of Reformation Theology at Seigakuin University and longtime friend of the Yieh family, met with us over lunch and coffee for lively conversation about the state of the church in China and Japan, the Three Self Patriotic Movement Church, and the house church movement in China. He also discussed the impact of radiation on Japanese society and the grief, fear, and mistrust of the government that people are experiencing in this crisis. A five-volume monograph series, A Theology of Japan, published by Seigakuin University Press, was donated to the Bishop Payne Library by Dr. Matsutani, who is himself one of the authors of volume five, Protestantism and Democracy.
associated with it. The interns spent time ministering in these schools, visiting and teaching in English classes, Bible classes and chapel services. Additionally, the Hong Kong government subsidizes social service ministries associated with churches. Elderly centers, employment services, and assistance for migrant domestic workers are among the many services that the interns experienced at their sites. Additionally, the interns went to the Providence Garden for Rehabilitation, an Anglican sponsored rehabilitation program for persons with serious mental illness and developmental disorders. Perhaps most touching to the interns were the many new friendships that were forged in Hong Kong. The Anglican parishes in Hong Kong conduct a number of fellowships, which are small-group ministries for special-interest groups such as youth, young adults, women and men. The interns met a number of wonderful fellow brothers and sisters in Christ during these fellowships. They often went out to eat in local restaurants after the fellowship meetings for some local cuisine. Furthermore, the interns developed a strong connection with their host priests at the cathedral and sponsoring parishes. This mini-internship was a prime opportunity for these VTS students to gain a better understanding of the everyday ministries of the Anglican Church in Hong Kong.
In these unexpected circumstances, what is required to be learnt in the days ahead and for what purposes do you think it is necessary to study? As we return from sixteen days in Asia, these questions that Dr. Nishihara posed to the students at Rikkyo University after the earthquake are relevant to us as well. The church in China began with missionary work in the sixth century; today Christianity continues to take root and flourish in Asia. Our Christian brothers and sisters in China and Japan broadened our understanding of how we build bridges of collaboration, cooperation, communication, reconciliation, and witness in places where Christianity is in the minority, yet is more influential than its numbers would indicate. q

STUDENT INTERNSHIPS
VTS students Margaret Peel, Shirley Porter, Shawn Strout, and Bernard Yung spent ten additional days in Hong Kong for a mini-internship. Margaret Peel and Shirley Porter stayed at Holy Trinity Cathedral, the seat of the Bishop of East Kowloon. Shawn Strout stayed at Holy Carpenter Church in Hunghom, Kowloon, while Bernard Yung stayed at the Church of the Holy Spirit. These internships were filled with a variety of ministry opportunities. The interns discovered that the Hong Kong government fully subsidizes private education, which means that every Anglican parish and mission church has at least one primary and secondary school
CONCLUSION
In addition to these educational experiences, the group enjoyed the spectacular beauty of the Harbor View at Victoria Peak in Hong Kong and the Pearl of the East at the Bund in Shanghai. We toured the Forbidden City, climbed the Great Wall, and attended a kung fu show in Beijing. The breath-taking dance show, Impression West Lake, enacted on the beautiful lake in Hangzhou, directed by the internationally renowned Chinese film director, Zhang Yi-mou, to the music of Kitaro, was a particular highlight of the trip. We also visited the oldest Buddhist temple in Japan, the Sensoji Temple in Tokyo, which dates from 628 A.D.

Mariann Edgar Budde
& QUIET
D E T E R M I NAT I O N
ariann Buddes philosophy of ministry might be best understood in knowing how she spent three weeks of her transition time before starting her new job: Budde traveled to Antigua, Guatemala for Spanish language immersion. She sought to refresh fluency in her second language to be better prepared for her visits as bishop to each of the seven Latino congregations in the Washington, D.C.-Maryland Diocese. Budde is equally intentional in her desire to communicate clearly and understand cultural nuances and community traditions among the Dioceses 81 English-speaking congregations. The bishop-elects warmth, quiet energy, and deep faith inform her service to the Episcopal Church. I believe one of the reasons the Diocese called me, is that I am committed to rebuilding the Episcopal Church at the level of congregations, she says. We have to invest in congregations, our schools, and neighborhoods. We need to develop new models, she says. While Budde holds firm convictions, including full inclusion of gays and lesbians in the church and women in the clergy, she expects to work with people who may disagree: I learned early in my life that I needed to get along with people who see the world differently. In addition to her grounding in Biblical principles, Budde is well read in the life and writings of Dr. Martin Luther King. I admire his extraordinary vision and his unwillingness to take the easy road, she explains. In times of despair, he prayed and kept going. Indeed, Budde sees strength in the Episcopal Churchs visible struggles with controversial issues, I love the Episcopal Churchs generous theology and openness to truth. Further, she says, I love the Churchs appreciation of mystery and the sacramental world view to know God through ordinary things and daily life. Even though Budde is unapologetically liberal in her theological views, she recognizes the strengths and insights on
the other end of the theological spectrum. Budde says. Most of the theologically conservative people Ive encountered in the church want to preserve something precious at the Christ-centered core of Christian faith, something that liberals are in danger of losing. And as one of her mentors, Rabbi Edwin Friedman, taught her long ago, The definition of a liberal is someone who can get along with a conservative.
I believe one of the reasons the Diocese called me is that I am committed to rebuilding the Episcopal Church at the level of congregations.
Budde believes that Christians are called to be part of a pluralistic world. We have to learn together to be followers of Christ, She believes, We need to find our voice and our strength, especially as we bump up again fundamentalism across the spectrum of Christianity, as well as in Judaism, Islam, and even among atheists. When she began her almost two-decade tenure at St. Johns, she joined a congregation desiring to develop its small, but promising ministry with families and youth. Among the parish issues already under discussion was gay inclusion. Budde moderated the conversations and decision-making process among church members. Blessing same-sex unions was approved after much discussion, prayer, and careful thought. The congregation and Budde worked together, as well, to make capital improvements to the 100-year old church building, making its spaces more conducive to congregation life in the 21st Century. Budde left an active church community of adults and children of all ages, as well as strong leadership at every level of congregation life. Noted for her moving, well-crafted sermons (Budde received the 2002 John
Hines Preaching Award from VTS), she is known, as well, for encouraging her congregation in outreach. St. Johns has strong bonds with other churches, including several Ojibway congregations in Northern Minnesota, a Liberian inner-city church in Minneapolis, and the St. Phillipe-St. Jacques congregation in Gressier, Haiti. Through inner-city involvement, St. Johns members have supported community organizations in North Minneapolis, one of the citys poorest neighborhoods. The area not only was hit hard by the foreclosure crisis, it lay in the path of a severe tornado in June of this year. St. Johns members joined their neighborhood partners and began cleanup the day after the tornado. They continue to contribute dollars and time to ongoing rebuilding efforts. Budde acknowledges that parish ministry has shaped her, but she heeds this observation from the Rt. Rev. Clay Matthews, bishop of the Office of Pastoral Development: 30% of experience gained in a parish applies in the role of bishop. The rest, he told her, is a straight-up learning curve. My primary work is rebuilding, reimagining, and reinvigorating our churches, she says. The Diocese sought a bishop who would join them in strengthening congregations, schools and other ministries. I am there to serve them, Budde says. She envisions reaching out to young people, especially given the high concentration of young adults who live and work in the D.C. area. She would like to help congregations work from their strengths and overcome obstacles that keep them from realizing Gods vision. Weve got a lot of common ground. In short, Budde is ready to get to work. She is willing to grow into challenges and above all, she is patient. If you need things to happen quickly, this is the wrong line of work, she says. q

2011 Annual Giving Report
BUILDING FOR THE AGES

This is a season for VTS when many are sharing of their time, talent and treasure. All three matter. While the Annual Fund is a daily focus at VTS, we are also in the quiet phase of a capital campaign with a goal of $10 million. The quiet phase is focused on leadership gifts and the gifts of the Board of Trustees, faculty, staff and current students. All of us will have the opportunity to give and build for the ages. Let me focus on this season of great sharing at VTS and, in particular, the building of a Chapel for the Ages: I will recount the generous service of the Board of Trustees; the Interim Worship Space Committee; the Buildings and Grounds Committee of the Board; the Chapel for the Ages Building Committee; the Organ Committee; the Campaign Cabinet; and the Campaign Executive Committee. Our Board of Trustees is strong, dedicated and committed to the Seminarys administration and mission. They have exceeded the goal set for them for the capital campaign. The Trustees are: e offer this 2011 Virginia Theological Seminary Annual Report with grateful hearts. Each gift matters. The annual fund matters. With a combination of boldness and humility, we believe the ministry and mission of Virginia Seminary matters. Presently, many people in the Seminarys world are focused on building a Chapel for the Ages. A chapel mattersbecause a seminary cannot form leaders without a chapel. Worship is the heart of our life. Corporate worship requires a physical space. Very soon after the loss of our chapel last October, we set up Scott Lounge as the Prayer Hall, using language that the Seminary has used in the past when temporary worship was required. The Prayer Hall served us well. It was a light-filled space that gave us flexibility for different services of worship. Spaces do indeed teach us, and we learned things about worship which will be included in the Seminarys new chapel.

ANNUAL GIVING REPORT
July 1, 2010 - June 30, 2011
The Rt. Rev. Shannon S. Johnston The Rev. R. Kevin Kelly The Rt. Rev. W. Michie Klusmeyer The Rev. Thomas M. Kryder-Reid Mr. James R. Lowe, Jr. The Rev. Dr. Andrew J. MacBeth The Very Rev. Ian S. Markham, Ph.D. Mr. M. Lee Marston Ms. Sissy Poland The Rt. Rev. F. Neff Powell The Rev. William B. Roberts, D.M.A. The Rev. Dr. Stanley W. Sawyer Timothy F. Sedgwick, Ph.D. The Rt. Rev. James J. Shand The Rev. Dr. William R. Shiflet, Jr. The Rt. Rev. Eugene T. Sutton Dr. William G. Thomas III The Rev. Christine R. Whittaker The Rev. Dr. J. Douglas Wigner Jr. Ms. Virginia C. Wilder Ms. Heather Zdancewicz. The task of transforming the Lettie Pate Evans Auditorium was given to a fastworking committee. The LPE Interim Chapel will be dedicated for a season but not consecrated. This committee has given us a space that is both temporal and timeless. It is beautiful and inspiring (visit our website to see a gallery of the transformation of the worship space.) We give our thanks to: The Rev. Michael R. Angell Ms. Laura Cochran Mr. Terry Byrd Eason The Rev. Roger A. Ferlo, Ph.D. The Rev. Lloyd A. Lewis, Jr., Ph.D. Mr. David Mutscheller The Rev. William B. Roberts, Jr., D.M.A. Ms. Chana Winger. For years, the Buildings and Grounds Committee of the Board of Trustees has been focused on keeping the campus fit for purpose and bequeathing to the next generation a campus for the ages. In this season they have overseen countless material projectsand the chapel being envisioned is their concern. Members of this committee include:
Over the summer, the Lettie Pate Evans Auditorium was transformed into a simple, interim worship space. In case you do not know: Lettie Pate Whitehead Evans is the Seminarys largest benefactor, and her foundation in Atlanta provides substantial income each year for our annual budget. We now have the Lettie Pate Evans Interim Chapel which will be utilized for several years while the permanent chapel is erected. This means that we recover Scott Lounge, once again, as the Seminarys living room. Worship spaces come and goand we do not find our truest selves in buildings made by human hands. We worship God not Gods house. But Madonna is right: it is a material world. While the spiritual reality of our timeless worship matters, the physical space in which we worship also matters. When it comes to worship, as with life, it is never timeless or temporalrather it is both/and. So, it is fitting when we recount those who have given of their material wealth to the Seminary to give thanks also
for those who give of their time and talent. Treasure comes in many forms.
GIVING FOR THE AGES

Annual Fund donors give to VTSnot to help us survive but to help us serve in our day. It is our time to lead in Christs name. Out of the strength and stability we have been given, we serve The Episcopal Church and the Anglican Communion. I am pleased to report that the overall giving of alumni, friends and parishes, exclusive of foundation grants and bequests, reached $2,530,258, exceeding $1 million for the sixth year in a row. Undesignated giving to the Annual Fund reached a new high of $793,169, very good in a time of economic uncertainty. Our donors, 2,010 strong, believe in the future and they give to VTS because the future of our Church matters. It matters for the ages. In the last four years, we have welcomed over 1,200 new donors!

The Seminary received an insurance settlement after the October fire. We have a preliminary goal of raising $10 million in the Chapel for the Ages Capital Campaign. A Chapel Campaign Cabinet worked on pre-quiet phase planning: The Rev. Dr. Margaret A. Faeth Ms. Cynthia C. Fowler The Rev. James M. L. Grace Ms. Martha W. High Ms. Elizabeth Cabell Jennings The Rev.

Shand Ms. Hartley Hobson Wensing. The Campaign Executive Committee is working diligently to find leadership gifts and stakeholder gifts as the fund-raising effort moves through the quiet phase (2012 will be the public phase of the campaign when all of usalums, friends et alwill be given the chance to give for the ages.) This group includes:
The Rev. Ronald G. Abrams The Rt. Rev. J. Jon Bruno The Rev. Dr. Margaret A. Faeth Ms. Cynthia C. Fowler The Most Rev. Frank T. Griswold III Ms. Martha W. High The Very Rev. Martha J. Horne The Rt. Rev. Carolyn Tanner Irish Ms. Elizabeth Cabell Jennings The Rt. Rev. Peter James Lee The Very Rev. Samuel T. Lloyd III The Rev. Dr. Joseph Walter Lund The Very Rev. Ian S. Markham, Ph.D. The Hon. Robert J. Murray The Rev. Rachel A. Nyback The Rev. John R. Pitts The Rev. Robert W. Prichard, Ph.D. The Rev. Phoebe A. Roaf Mr. Nicholas Roosevelt The Rt. Rev. James J. Shand Ms. Susan L. Shillinglaw The Most Rev. Desmond M. Tutu The Rev. Oran E. Warder Ms. Hartley Hobson Wensing The Rev. Dr. Wesley S. Williams, Jr. So, you see, our Annual Fund is closely tied to building a Chapel for the Ages. It is both/and, temporal and timeless. We need the Annual Fund to grow and we must build a chapel. We believe we can do both in our time. We are confident because this report makes it plain: our Annual Fund and building a chapel are not just about money, they are about our relationships with God and Gods people. We are a family, not a group of donors. The VTS family is sharing generously its time, talent, and treasure in so many ways. Our treasure is people not buildings. The future is bright because the family is strong. VTS is a family for the ages. - James Barney Hawkins IV

REMEMBERING THE REV. EDWARD H. KRYDER, D.D.

Age 91, Dr. Kryder died at his home in Luther Acres, Lititz, Pennsylvania on August 27, 2011. He was the son of the late Ralph Kryder and Pearle Hemington Kryder and the husband for 68 years of Sally Larkin Kryder, who survives him. Dr. Kryder was educated at Princeton University (1942). During World War II, he served in the Pacific theatre as Supply Officer aboard the USS Firedrake. After five years as Secretary-Treasurer of an aluminum plant near Buffalo, he pursued the degree of M.Div. at Virginia Theological Seminary. Ordained deacon in 1953 and priest the following year, he served congregations in Newfane and Wilson, New York before leading Calvary Church, Williamsville, New York as rector from 1958-1985. In 1975, Virginia Seminary awarded him the degree of Doctor of Divinity honoris causa where, after he resigned as rector of Calvary, he relished 21 years teaching as full-time adjunct professor. During all of his ordained ministry he worked hard - using liturgical theology, teaching, preaching, pastoring, mentoring, and leadership in the diocese, in the national church, and in the wider community - to inspire everyones active participation in the mission of the Kingdom to the poor in spirit and in body and in mind. Said one of his former students on the Virginia Seminary Facebook page, I am grateful for the opportunity to have been on the receiving end of Dr. Kryders teaching and mentoring ministry - there is hardly a day in ministry that I dont think of something I learned from him and it has been 25 years! Below: At the 2005 Commencement, student body president, Jeff Shankles (right) presented Dr. Kryder with the Class Cross on behalf of his class. At that same ceremony, Kryder gave the commencement address.

The Francis Scott Key Society

Best known for writing the Star Spangled Banner, Francis Scott Key was one of the founders of Virginia Theological Seminary. In order to ensure the Seminarys lasting good health, Key set aside one-tenth of all he earned throughout his life for charities, including the Seminary. Upon his death in 1843, the money was disbursed according to his wishes. We wish to thank the following thoughtful and loving friends who have followed the example of Francis Scott Key in the nearly 200 years since the Seminarys creation.

Gifts that Provide Income for Life
We offer several methods by which you can transfer capital to the Seminary but retain the income from the asset for your lifetime and/or the lifetime of your spouse or another person. You can fund a Charitable Gift Annuity arrangement, whereby you transfer capital and receive a guaranteed fixed income each year, paid quarterly. You can also invest in the Virginia Seminary Pooled Income Fund, a mutual fund type trust which combines many gifts, and receive a prorated share of the income earned by the fund each year, again paid quarterly. Or, for larger gifts, you can establish separate Charitable Trusts which will pay you either an annuity or percentage amount. The advantages vary according to your circumstance and objectives, but all of the plans at Virginia Theological Seminary offer you the following benefits: 1. Annual Income for yourself and/or another beneficiary. Often you can increase your expendable income because the Seminary can invest your asset at a higher yield. 2. Immediate federal income tax deduction. 3. Avoidance of a capital gains tax when giving appreciated property. 4. Investment Diversification. 5. Estate tax savings. When the last income beneficiary dies, the principal is transferred to the Seminary for a purpose of your choosing. We would be pleased to discuss any of these giving opportunities with you and your counsel. For additional information please contact the Rev. J. Barney Hawkins IV, Ph.D., Vice President for Institutional Advancement at 1-800-941-0083 or 703-461-1754, or by email at bhawkins@vts.edu.

Sing to the Lord a new song. (Psalm 96:1)
am honored to be asked to participate on this sixth anniversary of the celebration of Dr. Martin Luther King Day here at Virginia Theological Seminary. I can say to you that Dr. Kings life and ministry and his assassination on this day in 1968 were among the most formative events in my early years of ordained ministry. I remember so well the day which brought the news of his assassination in Memphis, Tennessee. I had just accepted a call to an inner city parish in Detroit and had not been in that city even long enough to locate permanent housing. So I was living in a residence hotel in a section of downtown Detroit. Because of a fear of outbreaks of violence across the city martial law was immediately declared and a curfew of 8 p.m. was imposed on all citizens. Unfortunately, a pastoral emergency had taken me out beyond the time of curfew and I found myself traveling back to my apartment on streets which were deserted except for national guardsmen patrolling in armored tanks and the backs of pickup trucks. When I was spotted about three blocks from my residence, a truck full of guardsmen took chase and followed me into the driveway of my hotel. As I exited my car all six jumped off their truck, put a spotlight on me and fell down on one knee, each aiming his rifle directly in my direction. I lifted my chin as high as I could so they would see my

Dr. King was scheduled to speak at Hampton College nearby so we all as a group went over to hear him. He was in the midst of demonstrations in Albany, Georgia which was segregated in every aspect of its social life. The so called Albany Movement had not been successful. The schools remained totally segregated. In an effort to resist integration the leaders on city council had closed the parks, and removed the chairs from the public libraries. In an auditorium filled mostly with students and faculty, King told us why he and Ralph Abernathy chose 45 days in jail in Albany rather than paying a $78.00 fine. He said his presence in jail would have made a clear statement. Word hit the newspapers that King was going to be put on a chain gang; indeed, the world press was paying attention. Then, three days later, they were mysteriously released from jail, preventing the desired success in that city. King thought his efforts there had been a moral victory for the Black citizens but had accomplished little. But unbowed, he was determined to lead his followers next to Birmingham, Alabama. Sometimes we forget that Dr. King was jailed over 30 times, his home was dynamited and he was almost fatally stabbed. Mrs. King was beaten so badly by police when she was pregnant that she miscarried. But all this didnt stop him. As Birmingham goes - so goes the south, he told us that day. And it was in that city that his non-violent demonstrations encountered the local police and police Chief Bull Connors with his police dogs and the fire hoses. All this brought the moral conscience of the world to Kings support. It was from a jail in that city that he penned his famous Letter from a Birmingham Jail. He reminded the religious leaders of the city (including the Episcopal bishop) that justice delayed was justice denied and that privileged groups seldom give up their privilege voluntarily. He challenged those leaders (who called Kings demonstrations untimely) to take responsible moral action. 2 You know the rest of the story. There was a negotiated settlement in Birmingham. The March

on Washington followed in August of that year. Congress passed the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and followed the next year with the Voter Rights Bill. I have moving memories of those times. To show support for the passage of the Civil Rights Act seminarians from Hebrew Union Seminary, Union Theological Seminary, Fordham University and General Theological Seminary joined together on a street corner standing a 24 hour vigil for several days within sight of the Lincoln Memorial. No sooner had we set up our tables and placards when members of the Nazi Party set up across the street. But we kept our witness in four-hour shifts around the clock - always a Protestant, a Roman Catholic, an Anglican and a Jew standing together. As you can imagine it was a profound time of conversation and prayer until Congress acted.

collar. The sergeant in charge asked me why I was out after the curfew and not at home. I explained the situation and told them that now, I was home. He ordered me into the hotel and told me not to come out again until daylight. Needless to say I did as he directed. I spent the rest of the evening at my window on the 10th floor watching the tanks and guardsmen moving up and down the boulevard. Such was my initial experience of a new ministry in my fifth year of ordination. Dr. King was gone. Palm Sunday followed three days later. One of our great American writers was James Baldwin. His novel Another Country remained on the best seller list for several weeks in 1963 at the height of the Civil Rights Movement. The next year one of his plays, Blues for Mister Charlie, was produced on Broadway. I never met this author but a few years earlier, as I sat up in the balcony watching his play a figure came down and sat beside me on the stairs in the darkness. I looked over to see James Baldwin who had come into the theatre to be a part of the audience. I begin this sermon today with this reference to Baldwin because it was about that time that he was asked the question, Why do you think King is a great speaker? He answered:
King is a great speaker. The secret of his greatness does not lie in his voice or his presence or his manner, though it has something to do with all of these; nor does it lie in his verbal range or felicity, which are not striking; nor does he have any capacity for those stunning flights of the imagination which bring an audience cheering to its feet. The secret lies, I think, in his intimate knowledge of the people he is addressing, be they black or white, and in the forthrightness with which he speaks of those things which hurt and baffle them. He does not offer them any easy comfort and this keeps his hearers absolutely tense. He allows them their self-respect - indeed he insists on it. 1 James Baldwins impression was the same as mine on the one occasion I met and heard Dr. King speak in person. I had just finished my first year at General Theological Seminary. It was the summer of 1962 and I was working on the staff of a parish training program at St. Cyprians Episcopal Church in Hampton, Virginia. Walter Dennis, the rector and later Bishop Suffragan of New York, had organized this first integrated staff for any parish program south of Washington, DC.
The decade spanning the years between the Supreme Court decision of 1954 that declared segregation in the public schools unconstitutional and the passage of the Voter Rights Bill of 1965 saw more social change, more court decisions and more legislation in the name of civil rights than any other decade in our nations history. The title of a book published about five years ago, At Canaans Edge - the King Years 1965 - 1968, by Taylor Branch is a reference to Dr. Kings last sermon preached the night before he was assassinated. He traveled to Memphis after preaching at the Sunday morning service at The National Cathedral. His words in Memphis are now famous. He recalled Moses who had led the Hebrews out of slavery in Egypt, through the desert toward the Promised Land. That night King said, Like anybody, I would like to live a long life. But Im not concerned about that now. God has allowed me to go to the mountain. And Ive looked over and Ive seen the Promised Land. And then, likening himself to Moses who looked into the promised land of a new Canaan, King went on, I may not get there with you, but I want you to know that we as a people will get to the Promised Land - mine eyes have seen the glory of the Lord! 3 As we now know, within 24 hours Martin would be felled by a snipers bullet. I have stood on the very spot where he died. That motel is now preserved for posterity as part of the Civil Rights Museum in Memphis. On that spot in the year 2002, in my capacity as Vice President of the House of Bishops, I joined with the heads of ten other American denominations in inaugurating Churches United in Christ - a renewed effort to rid this land of racism. In At Canaans Edge, Taylor Branch begins with the high water mark in the movement for Civil Rights - the Selma March in March of 1965. (That happened the week of my ordination to the priesthood.) In this volume, Branch not only describes Kings inspirational gifts and management skills in dealing with the Selma crisis, but he also shows the

day-by-day balancing act Dr. King continually had to perform: trying to reconcile the demands of grass roots groups with larger national agendas; trying to mediate between more radical figures like Stokely Carmichael and the more conservative Roy Wilkins of the NAACP; trying to work with the federal government on the War on Poverty while protesting that same governments prosecution and escalation of the war in Vietnam and trying to continue to promote his faith in a strategy of non-violence in the face of a growing militancy on the part of the younger generation. A tough balancing act which caused him sometimes to grow weary and depressed. But even when weary and depressed, he urged his followers to hold steadfastly to faith in a new future. With this faith, we will be able to work together, to pray together, to struggle together, to stand up for freedom together, knowing that well be free someday. So thats some of history past. What about the future as we, in 2011, look forward on this occasion of the 43rd anniversary of Dr. Kings death? Theologian Walter Brueggemann writes, The future will be wrought not by the merely technically competent but by those who have the capacity, the courage, the resources to envision and live toward a new world; it will be wrought by God through a people who have continued to be faithful. 4 Dr. King believed to the core of his being that all of us are (in his words) tied together in a garment of destiny. Before my retirement in 2002 Bishop Barbara Harris and I chaired a committee of the House of Bishops which produced a Pastoral Letter addressed to the Episcopal Church titled The Sin of Racism. In our committees work we affirmed the words of one social commentator who described racism as Americas original sin. In this regard, we forget that until the passage of the 14th amendment, our revered Constitution defined an African American slave as three-fifths of a man. Admittedly and thankfully weve come a long way in these

United States. In many ways, however, the issues of race and racism are still with us, and are more subtle, and the dynamics more complex in our present day. For example, the current debate about immigration is, in many quarters, racism in another guise. Social and political forces still determine and manage who gets what portion of the economic pie - and racial minorities and women are forced to struggle against one another for their fair share. In Dr. Kings lifetime the war in Vietnam usurped resources which could have been directed to alleviate the needs of the hungry, the homeless, the poor and the marginalized. Where in todays national budget debates do we hear compassion for the poor and the stranger? For the downtrodden worker? Where is the voice in defense of those who have no helper? Dr. King had a dream that our society could be different. He believed and hoped in his Lord who promised, Behold I make all things new. Are we to believe or hope for anything less? This question from our Baptismal Covenant awaits your response and action: Will you strive for justice and peace among all people, and respect the dignity of every human being?5 q

Student Reflections
Reflections on an
EARTHQUA KE
On August 23 at 1:51 p.m., just as the new students were settling into their class, a 5.8 earthquake struck sending the startled VTS Community into the Grove. Below are three reflections from that day.
go, there was damage both to the seminary and to buildings nearby. The National Cathedral experienced significant damage, and a parish in the Diocese of Virginia was destroyed. We had our nerves put even more on edge as word came that it may have been just a foreshock to a larger quake. This made the afternoon even more challenging for some of the juniors, especially for those with a particular fear of earthquakes, and for those who were in Haiti for that earthquake, but as families were reached and safety was confirmed, relief began to set in for us all. In many ways, this was a perfectly appropriate way for the junior class to begin our time on this Holy Hill. We learned in the span of a few seconds just how close we had grown in two weeks, and how much we cared for one another. We learned we will all need to rely on our classmates at times, even if it is just for help down the stairs. We also learned that we can carry on through adversity, and most importantly, that even while the stones sing out, (or maybe just a wee bit after) we will come together in peace, and give thanks to God. q
moving us, spiritually and physically, to where we need to be in order to remind us that God and his saints are everywhere. After the shaking, I joined my classmates outside on the lawn. Some were visibly shaken and others were consoling and assisting with communications to off-campus loved ones. Those few seconds made me realize that the thought I had as I boarded the plane was all wrong. My move from one coast to the other had not spared me from the possibility of an earthquake at all; I had been spared only from the experience of having to deal with it alone. Thanks be to God! q
Earthquake Damage to VTS: Overall, the Seminary held up well during the earthquake but there was some damage. Older faculty homes had chimney damage (such as Wilderness pictured below), Key Hall lost a fineal or two, and the ceiling in staff member Olivine Pillings office caved-in (bottom photo).
Elizabeth W. Tomlinson, VTS 14 Diocese of Virginia

The August term is, by design, the baptism by fire for the juniors entering seminary. Each day is filled with information, classes, mealtimes, study groups, orientations, worship services and enough new experiences to overload the senses. Its a bit like trying to get a drink of water from a fire hose. All of the information is good. All of the experiences are good. All of the classes are good. But everything is new. The people are new. The routine is new. The landmarks are new. The expectations are new. Every entering class is subjected to this avalanche of new experiences. And for every class that comes to VTS, there is one seminal experience that defines and marks that class forever. For the class of 2014, it is the earthquake of August 23. It began benignly enough. All of the juniors were attending a writing class in Addison. We were listening to a speaker explain the value of engaging the reader within the first few paragraphs of our work. As our professor began to talk about the expectations for the days assignments, a mighty rumble erupted. Everyone got very quiet as the rumble continued and began to build momentum. Within seconds, not only was there a rumble, but the classroom began to vibrate as well and the building shook. As the noise and the vibration reached a crescendo, all of us were trying to figure out what was happening. Our classmates from California knew instantly that we were in the midst of an earthquake. Such occurrences are unknown in Virginia. That fact alone made the processing a bit slower. As we
made our way out of the building and gathered in the grove, we began to comprehend the magnitude of what we were experiencing. We speculated. We checked cell phones and computers for information. We shared with each other. In an effort to alleviate the anxiety, one student turned to our professor and said, You were just so engaging Dr. Ferlo; you made the earth move! We all chuckled to relieve the tension, but we also realized that it was a terrifying punctuation mark in the beginning sentences of our careers as seminarians. It was a moment that we all shared and one that we will all remember. It was a seminal moment in our priestly formation at VTS. For the remainder of our lives, whenever we read a passage of scripture that says........ and the earth moved....it will be from a different perspective. q
Adrienne Hymes, VTS 14 Diocese of Los Angeles

As a native Virginian, who now claims Los Angeles, a.k.a. earthquake country, her home, I recall thinking, That feels like an earthquake, but earthquakes dont happen here, as the Addison building shook during our late-afternoon lecture on August 23. Two weeks ago, I boarded a plane from LA to Alexandria breathing a sigh of relief and selfishly thinking, Its about time for LA to have a nasty earthquake. Thank goodness I probably wont be here to experience it. Since the 1994 LA earthquake, theres always an awareness that the next big one is looming. After all, its not a matter of if a destructive earthquake will happen in Los Angeles, its a matter of when. I have always lived alone, and over the last 13 years I have taken great care to ensure that my deluxe earthquake kits were updated in my home and car. In LA, people live in silos, and the every man for himself mentality, which could possibly be exaggerated during a crisis, reigns. This is not ideal for disaster survival if your neighbor doesnt even know that you exist. As I braced myself under the desk in Addison, with chaos and fear around me (and earthquake 101 tips flooding my mind), I felt an overwhelming sense of peace. In a matter of seconds, I was reminded how valuable a communitythis community of prayerful, faithful and caring servants of Christ really is. All of these years, I had been preparing to experience a potentially catastrophic event 3,000 miles away from my family. God has a way of

It is more than a little bit disconcerting to be sitting on the top floor of a building when the earth beneath you begins to move. Even more unsettling than the shaking is the groaning, growling, menacing rumble that comes from the shaking bedrock. It was unexpected, to say the least, and a feeling I hope to never have again. Northern Virginia is not exactly a hotbed of seismic activity; the 5.8 earthquake was the strongest Northern Virginia has experienced in over a century. Though relatively minor as earthquakes

the possibility of ordination. He described this as a turning point in his life when he had an unusual insight. [Meades] successor brought me to Virginia Seminary to a conference, a college conference, to interest college people in the ministry. And when I came, I knew, one of the funny things that happened, I knew that I would spend the rest of my life in this place. It was very, very strange. Prices own call to ordination became stronger because of this perception of his lifelong place at VTS. In 1941 Price graduated from Harvard University with a degree in mathematics and then became a Navy officer. While serving on a destroyer in WWII, he began seeking ordination. Yet with his family background of prominent Harvard intellectuals, Prices own decision for the ordained ministry created shock and conflict in his personal life. He described this time, saying, Nobody in my family thought that was a good idea at all. Actually, my mother was quite opposed to it. My father was an active churchman, and he thought it was all right. But my mother, and my mothers family, who were the Harvard connection, they thought I was really throwing my life away to do that. For a role model, Prices mother held up to him his first cousin, Conrad Arensberg, an influential Harvard scholar who had a profound effect on anthropology. Yet Price persevered through the familial dissension and attended VTS from 1946-1949. From 1956-1963 Price taught at VTS until he received a call as Preacher to Harvard. Price said after nearly a month of intense soul searching, and really agony, I decided to go. Even in Harvards intellectual environment, Price organized the church by what became his characteristic spiritual principles. Virginia Seminarys the kind of place which really emphasizes the preparation of parish priests rather than scholars. And I make no apologies for that. So that when I got to Harvard, I was really interested in the effect that preaching would have on calling a congregation together. Thats my theological premise, that Christian congregations are called

together by the preaching of the Word. And I think you create the center, but you dont create it for the whole world, so to speak. You call into being a group of people that respond to your preaching. And respond they did. When I started preaching, I had no idea how to claim this group of people. I didnt know who they were. I didnt know what their center was. And I would say for months, preaching was sheer agony, until first, the civil rights movement, and then the Vietnam War came, where I knew that there was something on everybodys heart and mind. In the interview, Price acknowledged that he developed a faithful congregation attended by both students and faculty, along with Harvard President Nathan Pusey frequently reading scriptures. I invited Walter Burkhardt, the well-known Roman Catholic theologian at the time. And he looked out at the congregation and he said, Oh, I didnt expect that. I expected a handful of people. This was no small feat in the tempestuous era of the 1960s when the churchs authority had come under attack. With the support of the President Pusey, Price reacted quickly to build bridges during the burgeoning ecumenical movement and invited both men and women to participate from other religious denominations. Extending invitations to one and all, Price welcomed all other faiths to participate in the Memorial Church. I, at Mr. Puseys suggestion and at my desire, invited as ecumenical a group of people to come as I could. A group of Roman Catholic nuns came, and at the reception downstairs one of them told my wife, she said, If you had told me last year that I was going to be in the basement of a Protestant church drinking tea or punch, she said, I wouldnt have believed you. Those were the early days of Vatican II and ecumenical matters were just coming in. Price summarized his invitations, saying, I always invited as many high placed ecumenical leaders as I could to speak at Memorial Church. As seen in the comments of the courageous nuns, Prices wholehearted acceptance of both other denominations and faiths affected many. Price continually watched for ways to

n July 1976, the General Convention of the Episcopal Church voted to allow the ordination of women priests. Judith McDaniels new book Grace in Motion commemorates the 35th anniversary of this vote by interviewing women from VTS who helped make these historic changes. She tells the compelling stories of women pushing past formerly rigid barriers and the courageous stands of many at VTS who worked for this new spiritual break-through. McDaniel writes that when these women have taken upon themselves the promises of God, their lives have become grace in motion. (223) Along with the women interviewed, McDaniel writes of the men who supported the movement to give women decision-making voice (12) and remembers the work of VTS professor, Charles Philip Price, who faithfully believed in the ordination of women. And even though Prices early death precluded an interview McDaniel, he had granted an interview before his death with doctoral student, Andrew McLean, the transcript of which I have used for much of this article.
In the 1970s Charles Philip Price, former William Meade Professor of Systematic Theology at VTS, became one of the most outspoken and passionate supporters for the ordination of women. He helped ensure that women would become ordained by making multiple theological arguments for these new ordinations. Price said frequently in his classes at VTS, Until women are allowed to handle the Holy, they will never be considered equal to men. Because of his inner convictions, Price worked mightily for social changes. His strong and controversial stand raises questions about who was this Dr. Price who engaged so openly with the issues surrounding the ordination of women? What wisdom did Price still have to tell us that would strengthen us in the Anglican Communion that still experiences division because of female priests and bishops? For many weeks in the VTS archives, I have pored over Prices papers, during which time, a new picture of both his unwavering support for the ordination of women emerged as well as his spiritual life. In one of Prices final boxes of
papers, I found an intimate history of him. An enterprising Ph.D. candidate, Andrew McLean from the Department of Sociology at the University of California, Los Angeles, had reached out in early 1999, the final year of Prices life, to ask him about his ministry. Price spoke candidly about his life experiences, signing a statement that all of this could be made public. Pondering his responses led me to the realization that Price had a deep interior faith of which he spoke only quietly, yet one that provided the motivations for many of his actions, including the ordination of women. During his life from 1920-1999, Charles Philip Price watched historical changes with the eyes of faith, praying to find the ways of the Spirit amidst the tumultuous events of the latter twentiethcentury. In McLeans recorded interview on January 25, 1999, Price described his powerful call to ordination under the initial influence of the rector, Robert Nelson Meade of the Church of the Redeemer in Pittsburgh. During college, Price attended a symposium at VTS designed to explore

help the cause of equality of women. He supported the feminist movement when he welcomed the first woman to preach at Harvard. In 1971, Professor Mary Daly preached her historic sermon titled, Beyond God the Father. In her sermon Daly said that women are abandoning institutional religion because institutional religion abandoned them with their patriarchal interpretations of life. At the end of the sermon, Dr. Daly led a shocking and surprising walkout from the church to symbolize womens leaving of the church. Dr. Dalys symbolic ritual of leaving the church immediately became a cornerstone of the feminist movement. In the interview, Charles Price also talked about his decision to leave Harvard, saying, I was invited to be the successor to . . . Clifford Stanley. I explained to Cecil Woods, the dean of Virginia Seminary, that
I was in no position to leave. It was when all of these interesting things were happening on the campus and so on. When Nate Pusey announced his retirement (and I had come really to support his hand) I would have been willing to stay on, but I felt that was a good time to leave. I had a job that I really very much wanted to do, and I felt that I did not want to continue at Harvard to become dear old Mr. Price, you know. So I said, Nows the time to go. Shortly after Nathan Pusey resigned, Price also resigned. He had become a tenured professor and could easily have remained at Harvard, but Price expressed again his call to help prepare future priests. Yet Price remembered his years at Harvard with fondness. I wouldnt exchange that time for anything. He described his work at Harvard as a gloriously free job. When pressed by McLean about Prices connections to Harvard, Price once again proclaimed his independence from group inclinations and stated, Im not a rabid Harvard man. . . Its just not where I am. In his work in the Episcopal Church, Price became active in the creation of the 1979 Prayer Book and the 1982 hymnal. Moreover, Price wrote a paper in 1975 expressing theological arguments in support of the ordination of women. In 1976 the vote for these new ordinations passed the General Convention. In a 1982 sermon, Price memorialized this event. I heard Archbishop Coggan address the House of Deputies at the Minneapolis General Convention on the morning after the vote on womens ordination. Conflict had been acute. Tension ran high. He had to address a sensitive situation. He built his
words around what has been for me an unforgettable image. A violin string, he said, has to be stretched taut in order to make beautiful music. If stretched too much it breaks. Tension is creative. Conflict produces growth. Maybe it takes angels to keep us from pushing conflict to the point of destruction. [Some Outer Conflicts September 29, 1982]
The position of women has come into focus last of allafter religious toleration, after slavery. The third part of St. Pauls vision may be the most difficult to deal with. Sex is the deepest division of human nature.
Price continually hoped that the female ordinations would not cause destruction within the church and wrote a handwritten draft of a document he called Draft of Women in the Episcopate that was later revised by a committee and given to the 1987 General Convention. In his document, Price developed a compelling argument for the ordination of women from Galatians 3:28 that reads, There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. Price believed that society addressed these issues in the order that this scripture was written. The position of women has come into focus last of allafter religious toleration, after slavery. The third part of St. Pauls vision may be the most difficult to deal with. Sex is the deepest division of human nature. In addition to the Galatians scripture, Price also used intellectual history to explain the changing position of women in society. He stated that Renaissance re-affirmation of Plato allowed more human freedom instead of the strict subservience for women
found first in Aristotle and then in Thomas Aquinas. Price wrote the renewed acceptance of Plato weakened the authority of all traditional positions which depended on Aristotelian principles, like Aquinas objection to the ordination of women (and slaves.) Price declared that this ontological shift away from Aristotle became influential in the seventeenth century Cambridge Platonists. This began a vast four hundred year movement for freedom in society. The Cambridge Platonists of the seventeenth century came to view religious toleration as a desideratum. They influenced John Locke whose political views have been decisive in Western democratic institutions. . . . Thanks in no small measure to his influence, one-third of St. Pauls vision of our life in Christ, in which there would be neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, neither male nor female came to be built into English and American social structures. Two thirds of the vision, however, was not realized at once. Price said that following Locke, a drive to realize fully St. Pauls vision in society began. Addressing another historical movement, Price recognized the gospel implications for justice in the 18th century work of John Wesley who preached to the poor in the fields of England. Price wrote, The social implications of the gospel were seen to require changes in society. No longer were inequities considered as the unchangeable features of natural law, but as the result of sin. So slavery was brought to an end by an Act of Parliament in 1807, chiefly by the labors of William Wilberforce, a laymen deeply influenced by the Wesleyan revival. Even as Price worked for female ordinations, he recognized the potential disruption of unity in the church and watched for the reception of this change. He kept in his files many articles about this, including one from Christianity Today, June 16, 1989 that acknowledges the problem of deteriorating relations among their churches due to the controversial issue of ordaining women as priests and bishops The consecration last February of Barbara
Harris of Boston as an assisting Episcopal bishop of Massachusetts and first female bishop in world Anglicanism was the flash point. Even with these conflicts, late in the last decade of his life, Price published a hymn titled God, Beyond all Human Praises celebrating the consecration of female bishops. He exclaimed, God of all our new beginnings, seal with grace what we have done. Bless our Bishop, bless her people. Rule your church through Love alone. You are the Holy One. During the last decade of his life when church conflicts about many issues were becoming increasingly public, Price feared for the long-term stability of the Episcopal Church. In a 1996 sermon at Immanuel on the Hill, he preached about his inner, private awareness of the goodness of God yet acknowledged the horrific problems plaguing the Episcopal Church, calling this a failure of love. The public life of our church is a mess, as much as the public life of Israel in the desert so long ago. . . .Its almost more than we can endure to look at, to admit its really happening to us. Yet even in the midst of the wrenching controversies, Price encouraged the Episcopal Church to find interior convictions and to take stands, whether for new liturgies, hymns or priests. He had found a deep personal faith in his own life that had carried him through difficult times, both in his professional and personal life. On March 10, 1999, months before his October death, Price made one of his strongest witnesses about the interior Spirit, while preaching from Romans 10. Price exclaimed, The deeper question, the thing that underlies this whole passage is how does this great gift come to us that makes endurance possible? You can call that gift justification. Therefore since we have been justified by faith You can call it forgiveness of sins. You can call it peace with God. You can call it the gift of the Holy Spirit. Reginald Fuller, a world-famous New Testament scholar, a colleague of mine and a teacher at VTS, has written of this passage, When a man receives the gift of the indwelling Spirit,
he is justified; when a man is justified, he receives the gift of the Spirit. That gift is available to us, too. . . All you have to do is claim it. Claim it and you are forgiven: and you can forgive yourself. Claim it, and you can have peace with God and with yourself and with your neighbors. Claim it, and you will have appropriated for yourself the eternal gospel of Jesus Christ, the best good news of all time. Price himself had claimed this gift of the interior Spirit. Even with the conflicts, Price still believed that God moved within the Episcopal Church. In a conference Price had spoken with authority, It will take some time for the interaction of scripture, tradition and reason to come to a new formulation. Nor should we be dismayed by argument and controversy. In our imperfect world, truth is achieved by argumentative, dialectical means. It took four hundred and fifty-one years to work out the doctrine of the Incarnation. I think well do better than that with our current set of vexing problems. So we do not lose heart. The Lord is with us to the close of the age. And maybe that describes Prices own life who trusted the Spirit through his own family dissension, angry student riots, and controversy over female priests and later noncelibate homosexual and lesbian ordinations. Price both lived and trusted fully Pauls vision in Galatians 3:28. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. Now Judith McDaniel in her book Grace in Motion shows the history of many, named and unnamed, who also trusted, believed, and worked for the realization that in Christ there is no male or female. q

GRACE IN MOTION:
An Extraordinary Year: In spite of fire, earthquake and hurricane, the Seminary prevails!
JUDITH MCDANIEL RELEASES BOOK ON WOMENS ORDINATION AT VIRGINIA SEMINARY

he Rev. Judith McDaniel, professor of Homiletics at Virginia Seminary, has just released a new book, Grace in Motion: the Intersection of Womens Ordination and Virginia Theological Seminary. Beginning in the late 50s, the book reconstructs over 50 individual narratives of call and the steps the faculty of VTS took to respond to those calls. Working on the book was a moving experience, shared McDaniel. I was amazed at the depth of reflections the interviewees were willing to share with me. Hearing their stories and sharing with them the discovery of moments of grace they had never before contemplated was the most gratifying part. The book, a gift from the Class of 2010, is
part of a series of books that recounts the history of VTS. Judith McDaniel was the right person to undertake this project, said the Very Rev. Ian S. Markham, VTS dean and president. She is the first female Episcopal priest to hold a tenured Faculty position at VTS. McDaniel joined the VTS faculty in 1990; in 2002, she was named the Howard Chandler Robbins Professor of Homiletics. She completed her Doctor of Philosophy from University of Washington, Seattle, Washington in 1994; Master of Divinity, cum laude, General Theological Seminary, New York in 1985; a Certificate of Graduation, Diocesan School of Theology, Seattle in 1977 and her Bachelor of Arts, cum laude, University of Texas at Austin in 1961.
Before joining VTS, Professor McDaniel served in various parishes in Washington State as Rector, Associate Rector, and Deacon. This is a book about the agency of God, said the Very Rev. Ian S. Markham, Ph.D., dean and president of Virginia Seminary. Here we see evidence of the determination of the Holy Spirit to allow the gifts of all the baptized to be available to the Church. Copies of the book are available in the Cokesbury Bookstore on campus.

Breathe through the heats of our desire, Thy coolness and Thy balm; Let sense be dumb, let flesh retire; Speak through the earthquake, wind, and fire, O still, small voice of calm.
