                                               “I have made no other arrangements.”

PromiseLand Summer Fun!
IT’S HARD TO BELIEVE it’s already June, and summer is
just a hop, skip and a jump away! We’ve been busy in
PromiseLand over the past few months, and I think we’re
all looking forward to a relaxing and fun summer!
This May, we launched our World Religions Series by
learning about Judaism, Buddhism and Islam. We had a
Passover Seder – we sang music, told the Exodus story and
perhaps most importantly, tasted some of the traditional
food. Then, we talked about appreciation and tried to be
present in each moment by doing different Buddhist medi-
tations. We learned about the Muslim Prophet Mohammed
and practiced writing greetings in Arabic Script. It was a
great couple of weeks and helped us appreciate the diversity
of our city and world!
This summer, all kids are invited to learn and play together
every Sunday in the Chapel of St. Nicholas. We will have
books, crafts, games and DVDs to keep kids engaged and
learning during the summer months. Every week from June
19th to August 28th, a PromiseLand parent will downstairs
ready to welcome the kids of CCDP as well as all visiting
kids! Hope to see you there!
But before we head off to camp, cottages, or just hanging
around the city, we are having one LAST PARTY! Join us
on Sunday, June 19th for our ANNUAL SUMMER BBQ
on the lawn. We’ll have tons of delicious food, and it’s a         PromiseLand participated in the Easter Sunrise Service,
great opportunity to catch up with friends and maybe make
some new ones, before the summer. I hope everyone can
make it.
I wish everyone a safe, relaxing and laughter-filled summer!

In response to the numerous artists’ queries, we have set
up a selection jury of three of our congregation members:
Nora Dobell, Joyce Hamilton and Bob Reeves. They have
an interesting job ahead for them. It promises to be an
exciting line-up of artists and a full schedule.
For the Summer, we have scheduled two group art shows
of five artists each. The theme for the first show (June 19th
- July 31st) is: “Does art have a transformative power?” Five
artists are inviting viewers to see their work and ponder.
From our congregation, Jane Gillespie will be displaying
4 Chinese brush paintings, and Vivien Jenkinson will be                                             Director and Staff of Inner

Marcinenas (Pointillism), Mary Wagler and Ileen Kohn -
exhibiting oils and acrylics.
The second group art show will hang from Aug. 7th to
Sept.11th and will also show 5 artists. The selection jury
is in the process of finalizing the line-up of artists for yet
another interesting exhibition.
The schedule for the rest of the calendar year is just about
complete and the selection jury will soon be starting to fill
the slots for early 2012.

AT PENTECOST, WE CELEBRATE the gift of God’s Holy Spirit upon the Church. The E-mail: activity of the Holy Spirit is the subject of much interest these days. In John’s Gospel jking@thereslifehere.org or the editor (e-mail below). (14:15-21) Jesus describes a vital aspect of the work of the Holy Spirit in the lives of PARISH CLERGY his followers. Interim Priest-in-Charge Given the availability of a time machine, would we rather spend time in the company The Ven. Thomas M. Greene of Jesus 2000 years ago or continue with what we have as Christians now in the age Assistant Curate The Rev. Samantha Caravan of the Holy Spirit? Most people would probably opt for the former. But as Jesus Honorary Assistants prepares his disciples for his immanent departure, he explains that it is actually to The Rev. Dr. Peter Slater their advantage that he is going away. The astonishing truth is that the blessing of The Rev. Canon Dr. David Neelands the Holy Spirit will be even greater than the blessing of the physical presence of Jesus. The Rev. Dr. Karen Hamilton, Ecumenical Partner Jesus underlines the fact that the one to come is the Spirit of truth who will faithfully The Rev. Michael Marshall, make Jesus real to them. Hospital for Sick Children Director of Children’s Education But not having the physical limitations imposed by the humanity of Jesus, the Hilary Keachie Spirit is able to be in all places at all times, not simply dwelling with us but, more WARDENS importantly dwelling within us. That is why it is to our advantage. But it all depends Rector’s Warden (Human Resources) David Thornton on Jesus “going to the Father”, a route which takes him inexorably via the sufering People’s Warden (Property) and the glory of the Cross to the glory of the resurrection and the ascension. Only Walter Blackwell when the Lamb of God has taken away the sins of the world will it be possible for Deputy Warden (Finance) the Holy Spirit to enter into this new relationship with his followers. Robert Morrow EDITORIAL COMMITTEE We read and hear that we will not be left comfortless; we will not be left orphaned. Editor That Spirit which we celebrate at Pentecost will continue to give us life as individuals Joyce Hamilton (joyceian@sympatico.ca) and as a community of faith. That will be so - that is the promise. The question is, Members do we believe it?

They are absolutely not to do Peter Curzon, Kate Rieger with multiple points of organizational structure or personal behaviour. Love God, Webmaster Brian Dench Love Your Neighbour.

In this transition some of the great strengths of the who (The Ven.) Thomas Greene and what of CCDP have also come to light.

To that end I will be on vacation during July, be assured of my continued prayer for you as individual people of God and as community. I hope you too make time for family, friends and perhaps a good book or two. CAN YOU BELIEVE IT - its June! We are half way to Christmas.. I have always found the human habit of looking Blessings for the next marker fascinating and, that has been the case Samantha throughout this transition period. As a congregation I want Assistant Curate to commend you on a few things I have observed, on a few markers as we journey through this current experience. Many of my colleagues warned me about the anxiety the parish would experience, how everyone will be off balance and tentative, waiting on decisions until the ‘new’ rector arrives. Well, they clearly do not know the people of Christ Tom’s “Grace” Church Deer Park. There has been a little anxiety, and a few (by request) decisions have been set aside waiting for the appointment Lord, bless this food upon these dishes of our new rector. BUT, overall I would say this experience, this transitional journey, has been wonderful. Full of As thou didst bless the loaves and fishes. opportunities for input, and for reflection of who we are as And as the sugar in the tea, individuals and who we are as a congregation.

  • 4. CHRIST CHURCH DEER PARK SUMMER 2011 Proud of the gift baskets they made for Nellie's Women's Shelter, this year’s Lenten Acts of Kindness Project. PromiseLand Summer Fun! IT’S HARD TO BELIEVE it’s already June, and summer is just a hop, skip and a jump away! We’ve been busy in PromiseLand over the past few months, and I think we’re all looking forward to a relaxing and fun summer! This May, we launched our World Religions Series by learning about Judaism, Buddhism and Islam. We had a Passover Seder – we sang music, told the Exodus story and perhaps most importantly, tasted some of the traditional food. Then, we talked about appreciation and tried to be present in each moment by doing different Buddhist medi- tations. We learned about the Muslim Prophet Mohammed and practiced writing greetings in Arabic Script. It was a great couple of weeks and helped us appreciate the diversity of our city and world! This summer, all kids are invited to learn and play together every Sunday in the Chapel of St. Nicholas. We will have books, crafts, games and DVDs to keep kids engaged and learning during the summer months. Every week from June 19th to August 28th, a PromiseLand parent will downstairs ready to welcome the kids of CCDP as well as all visiting kids! Hope to see you there! But before we head off to camp, cottages, or just hanging around the city, we are having one LAST PARTY! Join us on Sunday, June 19th for our ANNUAL SUMMER BBQ on the lawn. We’ll have tons of delicious food, and it’s a PromiseLand participated in the Easter Sunrise Service, great opportunity to catch up with friends and maybe make some new ones, before the summer. I hope everyone can make it. I wish everyone a safe, relaxing and laughter-filled summer! Hilary Director of Children’s Education 4 / HERALD

The theme for the first show (June 19th - July 31st) is: “Does art have a transformative power?” Five artists are inviting viewers to see their work and ponder. From our congregation, Jane Gillespie will be displaying 4 Chinese brush paintings, and Vivien Jenkinson will be Director and Staff of Inner showing 3 watercolors. The 3 community artists are: Joana City Youth Proram Marcinenas (Pointillism), Mary Wagler and Ileen Kohn - exhibiting oils and acrylics. The second group art show will hang from Aug. 7th to Sept.11th and will also show 5 artists. The selection jury is in the process of finalizing the line-up of artists for yet another interesting exhibition. The schedule for the rest of the calendar year is just about complete and the selection jury will soon be starting to fill the slots for early 2012.
