THIS WEEK AT ST. ANNE’S
WELCOME If you are a guest and visiting us for the first time, please join us for Hospitality Hour following the service. We are so blessed to have you here.
ANNE’S CONFLICT TRANSFORMATION PROCESS The actions St. Anne’s has taken to date in its process of Conflict Transformation have been: Listening Sessions moderated by our ECR consultant Bob Gross; a number of training/learning sessions in which Bob taught/refreshed for us the listening and communication behaviors that are most effective to transform conflict, and that facilitate communication across human differences; and finally a worship service on June 17, 2025, that ritualized our gratitude for shared ministry, laments about our failures with one another, and an articulation of our hopes for ourselves and our community of St. Anne’s going forward. With Vestry leadership and communal prayer, we will continue to integrate these practices into our lives and into our worship. Beginning with this weekend, and for the following six weeks until we observe the 75th Anniversary of the founding of St. Anne’s Episcopal Church, we will integrate our conflict transformation process more particularly into our Sunday worship at all weekend Services in the following way.
On each Sunday, we will incorporate a special prayer in our Prayers of the People related to our prayer to God to transform, in the power of Christ’s Spirit, whatever conflicts are assailing the members and the community of St. Anne’s. Each Sunday we will particularize our attention as follows on some aspect of conflict/failure/sin, and our choice to release whatever hurt is related to it into the heart of God’s mercy and grace:
July 6 – My patterns of communicating/refusing to communicate that inflict wounds, failures of communication, on others
July 13 – My judgments about others and their behaviors that “harden my heart” in my relating with them
July 20 – My refusals and indifference to engage others around conflicts/mutual failures/sin
July 27 – Our communal foci on our wants/needs that crowd out our responses to others’ needs
August 3 – Our pre-occupations that effect inaction toward the needs of others and our community
August 10 – Our fears that drive our failures to love God, our neighbors, our selves
Each person will be invited to write on special “flash paper” their experiences of hurt, woundedness, failure related to the focal conflict/failure/sin (see dates below), and then to place that paper in the container at the front of the church. Fire taken from the Easter Candle will then ignite the papers, flashing the release of these experiences from our hearts into the heart of God’s Forgiving-Love. Our prayer then will be that we will carry the flash-effect of God’s Forgiving-Love into our relationships with all whom we encounter.
SEARCH COMMITTEE UPDATE We went over edits to the Parish Profile. A graphic designer was hired to polish it up for publication. We will be working on the OTM at our next meeting on 7/13.
