 From the Rector:  a Head’s Up and a Big Thank You

If you haven’t already, you will soon be receiving a Stewardship letter in the mail with a pledge card from our church. This year, I’ve had the pleasure of working on Stewardship with a wonderful Chairperson, Edie Palm. Edie has written, folded, stuffed, and supported me during our stewardship planning and has crafted a letter for our current pledgers that is from the heart. Thank you, Edie, for all your hard work! 

Our potential new pledgers will receive a different letter a little later this month - one that invites you to join us in making a financial commitment to the parish. 

So, head’s up: we will be talking about Stewardship a lot in the next six weeks or so. I invite you to join me in carefully considering all the ways in which you might support the mission and ministry of St. Nick’s in 2019.

Warmly,
Mother Leigh

THIS SUNDAY AT ST. NICK'S 
September 2, 2018
The Fifteenth Sunday after Pentecost
Services are at 9am & 10am

Happy Labor Day Weekend!

From the Rector
Safe Church?
To put it mildly, I am sad and angry about the recent reports on the sexual abuses within the Roman Catholic Church in six dioceses in Pennsylvania. The Grand Jury report investigated church documents from from a period spanning 70 years and generated almost 900 pages that describe horrific incidents of abuse committed by more than 300 priests. If you didn’t see the reporting on this, covered in every major news outlet, you can read more about it here.
As a member of the clergy, I’ve thought about that Grand Jury report and those priests each time I’ve put on my clerical collar. While the collar isn’t the symbol of priestly ordination (the stole is), people have come to see it as the sign that I am ordained. And frankly, with these new indictments, I worry that the collar will come to symbolize something else for people — that the person wearing it isn’t safe. On a larger scale, I worry about folks starting to look at our churches in the same way. 
Certainly, sexual abuse happens in every denomination and organization. No one is immune, not even churches who ordain women, although some people believe that women’s ordination is a preventative. But now, more than ever, is the time to turn our attention toward prevention and training, in an effort to protect every person - each one God’s beloved child - who comes to our church to worship and to belong. To that end, the Episcopal Church offers Safe Church training (also known as Safeguarding God’s Children and Safeguarding God’s People). The training itself doesn’t prevent sexual abuse, but it is a significant roadblock we can put up for potential abusers. 
Safe Church training can be completed in two ways: in-person and online. The training helps participants learn to recognize the signs of sexual abuse and the behavior of sexual perpetrators, as well as how to respond to those signs and behaviors when they are observed. The training also provides screening information to help stop abuse before it happens. Safe Church training should be completed every five years and is required of all ordained persons and Eucharistic Visitors. The Bishop and I expect the following folks to also complete the training, either in-person or online: all employees, wardens, vestry, pastoral visitors, youth leaders, confirmation sponsors, acolyte leaders, Sunday School teachers, and volunteers serving on a regular basis.
SafeguardingOnline for St. Nick’s should be set up by the end of September and is free to complete. In the meantime, an in-person training has already been scheduled for the Mid-Hudson region at St. Paul’s, Poughkeepsie on Saturday, September 22nd, from 8a to 1p and costs $30, which covers the cost of lunch and the facilitator’s fee. Pre-registration for the in-person training is required. To register for this training, please click this link:https://www.dioceseny.org/ednyevent/safe-church-training-mid-hudson-2018/
Mthr. Deborah Magdalene and I, both Safe Church trainers for the Diocese of New York, will together offer an in-person training to both Zion and St. Nick’s in January 2019. Please be on the lookout for that date. 
And join me in prayer for all victims  and survivors of sexual abuse and their families, for the priests and bishops who committed or allowed these egregious sins to continue, and for the Church, that it may have the courage to look at itself honestly and to make changes where they are sorely needed. 

Yours, in Christ,
Leigh+
