In One Case—A Hundredfold!
I want to express a heart-felt thanksgiving to all of you who claim St. Mary’s as your spiritual home. Your faithfulness, courage and generosity have been exemplary, and I feel very blessed by God to serve with you as priest, spiritual friend and brother in Christ. Cathedral Day on April 27th was exceptional. Over 300 guests were counted coming through the doors and gates of the Cathedral. Close to $19,000 was raised to help repair the crumble of the ceiling. Fantastic musicians and artists filled every corner of the campus. Children were having the time of their lives in the Crypt. So many volunteers worked tirelessly to make the day a success. Special thanks to Marcia Wunderlich, who was chair of the event. Others on the Cathedral Day committee were: Pam and Buddy Chapman, Gail Woods, Larry and Martha Ann Gossett, Jim Powell, Phil Johnson, Pat Geelan, Maudie KitePowell, Marti Kuhn, Rebecca Chappell, Paula Kelly, and Bindy Snyder. Please pat them on the back and congratulate them on a fantastic job. We look forward to what is in store for next year!!! www.stmarysmemphis.org 692 Poplar Avenue Memphis, Tennessee 38105 Phone 901.527.3361 Fax 901.523.8292

I also need to express how impressed I was with St. Mary’s during the Heather Palumbo Jones tragedy. These are the events that either break or bind a community. We chose the latter. Your kindheartedness and hospitality to Heather’s family and children were holy. Also, I watched many of you show real grace to Chris Jones as he arrived for Holy Eucharist on the Sunday before he confessed. This was a very confusing time, and you led with your heart. This has made a lasting, positive impression on my soul. Over 400 people came to Heather’s funeral. The mission of the Church is to empower the people beyond themselves. Jesus said: “But as for what was sown on good soil, this is the one who hears the word and understands it, who indeed bears fruit and yields, in one case a hundredfold, in another sixty, and in another thirty.” St. Mary’s has good soil. It is a most exceptional place to be.

A humorous excerpt from The Commercial Appeal on Monday, April 22, 2013: CIVIL WAR-ERA MEMORIES from The Memphis Daily Appeal — April 15, 1863 Bold Theft—The “Argus” notices the fact that some contemptible thief entered the church yard of St. Mary’s church on Poplar Street and ran off a favorite cow belonging to Bishop Otey.
A Success !! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! ●A little rain didn't dampen our spirits and Cathedral Day was a success and is now history. The dramatic stone gate was a perfect entry to the enchanting day. Balloons lined the walks to the Cathedral and created a festive atmosphere as church members, families, friends and familiar faces from other churches arrived. The spirit of St. Mary's was strong all day as people enjoyed great music, interesting lectures, book talks, and fun children's games. The crowd enjoyed artists' work, delicious home made goodies, and beautiful handmade crafts. The silent auction was one of the best ever. The food trucks that came were busy, and the food was delicious. The Bishop won the beard contest that was judged by three County Deputies (an impartial panel). That was a highlight as our bearded friends lined up for the judging. The Bishop's Reception was elegant and the tours informative. It was such a perfect way to spend a Saturday. ●Thank you to the Cathedral Identity Committee for the idea and the Cathedral Day Committee for the hard work of making it happen. Members included Pam and Buddy Chapman, Gail Woods, Larry and Martha Ann Gossett, Jim Powell, Phil Johnson, Pat Geelan, Maudie KitePowell, Marti Kuhn, Rebecca Chappell, Paula Kelly, Bindy Snyder, and Marcia Wunderlich. Anna Holtzclaw, Aimee McMillin, and Posey Cochrane got the young couples involved with the children's games. All of these people made great ideas a reality. ●Our Cathedral Staff was also invaluable and their enthusiasm and willingness to do anything was so appreciated. The ladies of the Gailor Guild were a big help when they met to sort prizes, price items, and divide up tickets. Our clergy, Andy, Laura, and Drew, were enthusiastic and volunteered to help in different areas. Andy endured a beard for months, Laura helped with contacts and the children's events, and Drew was willing to do whatever. Judy, Lisa, and Ty contributed with the publicity, flyers, and communications. Preston got our Squares working and monitored the sound system. Ideas were contributed by all. Trell and Jasper so willingly pitched in and made certain our facilities were ready for our guests. They both worked very hard. ●So many people contributed to the success by donating gorgeous hand made items, scrumptious baked goodies, a variety of auction items, and exceptional talents. Many contributed financially. So many helped by setting up and cleaning up. It was really a parish effort we should all be proud of. ●Our rewards were many. Everyone complimented the day. One of the deputies said that he didn't know what to expect for the day. He added that when he drove up he immediately felt that it would be a good day. Then he added that he was so impressed by the friendliness of all the people and ended by saying that if he wasn't involved in a church he would probably join St. Mary's. Positive remarks like that were made for every type of event that we had. ●The Blue Grass Eucharist was the perfect ending to a perfect day. Many thanks to the clergy and musicians who planned this wonderful service. ●Funds are still coming in and bills for expenses are still being paid. So far we have roughly taken in over $22,000. Our profit should be between $17,000 and $18,000 ●Our Cathedral Day raised funds for a good cause, the repair and restoration of our nave ceiling. This is a complicated project that will take time and a lot more money. Thanks for helping us begin. Marcia Wunderlich, Chair
Silent Auction Results This year’s Silent Auction held on April 27, 2013, in conjunction with St. Mary’s Cathedral Day was a resounding success. While the weather on Cathedral Day wasn’t what we hoped, the silent auction committee did a quick scramble to setup in the hall of the children’s wing. The close quarters did not seem to dampen the enthusiasm of the bidders. There were 157 items donated to this year’s auction which raised over $4,300 (and still counting) in bids offered. ● St. Mary’s Servant Ministry Team gives a huge thank you to all who participated. To those who donated auction items, your generosity is greatly appreciated in offering items of such quality and diversity. To those who won bids, in addition to purchasing great merchandise and services your money is going to support two worthy causes at St. Mary’s. The proceeds from the auction will be divided between the PopTop Ministry (for feeding the homeless) and the Cathedral Ceiling Repair Fund. Finally, to our volunteers who helped with setup, checkout and cleanup, know that your help was essential to the Silent Auction’s success. ● Again, thanks to all of you, without your efforts this event would not have happened. Dawn and Lee Roberts Co-Chairs of the Servant Ministry Team
♫ BENCH NOTES ♫ A Word from Your Organist/Choirmaster St. Mary’s Girls and Boys Choirs...Coming to a Cathedral near you! As many of you may already know, we are excited about starting a new children’s choir program at St. Mary’s this fall. We are planning to actually form two choirs. One will be for children ages 5 and 6 (exceptions for younger children will be made on an individual basis) and will be under the direction of the amazing Claire Valine. The second choir will be open to all children and youth ages 7 and up and will be under my direction. ● We envision these groups becoming an integral part of St. Mary’s worship life. Not only will the kids sing on Sunday mornings, but they will learn how to read music, they will become familiar with music history, and they will gain a deeper understanding of our Episcopal liturgy and hymnody….all while having A LOT of fun! ● I’ve led children’s choirs for many years prior to coming to the Cathedral, and I am thrilled that our growth has enabled us to establish such groups in this holy place. It has been one of my greatest priorities since my arrival here, and together with Claire Valine, we can do some incredible things here. ● For those of you with children ages 5 and up, please join me in the Cathedral Choir room (downstairs, beneath the education wing) at 12:30 on Sunday, May 12 or Sunday, May 19, for an informational meeting, during which we will discuss rehearsal times, retreats, and other exciting details. ● We hope you share our excitement for the future of this revived Cathedral music ministry! Soli Deo Gloria, Scott Elsholz

Here’s a brief description of the CSM: The Community of St Mary (CSM) is the oldest Episcopal order of religious nuns in the United States. Four of their sisters, Constance, Thecla, Ruth and Frances, died in the yellow fever epidemic of 1878. These women are remembered every year by the Episcopal Church on September 9, as the Martyrs of Memphis. Associates of the Community of St. Mary are Christian men and women who wish to share in their fellowship of prayer, while living out their vocations in some other setting. Associates undertake a Rule of Life, pray specifically for the Community, and commit to regular daily prayer, attendance at worship services, and charity and witness in their daily lives.

In response to the approval of a Rite for the Blessing of SameGender Relationships during the 2012 General Convention of the Episcopal Church, the St. Mary's Chapter has formed a committee to discern how our Cathedral family might make use of the provisional liturgy. Leslie McQuirter, Evelyn Piety, Alison Dowd, Lee Roberts, George Clarke, Jr., John Gaskill, and Dennis Clark are meeting regularly using a four-step discernment process based on the writings of St. Ignatius. They are keeping both the Chapter and Dean Andy Andrews informed on their progress. On Sunday, June 9, and again on Sunday, June 16, a parishwide discussion will be held at 10 am in the Parish Hall. Members of the committee will be on hand to discuss the discernment process and their findings. All are invited to come learn, ask questions, and discuss.
