“We Love Our Church”
Jumping Up & Down!
When was the last time you were so excited by something that you just had to jump up and down?!
You were so excited that you couldn't contain yourself!
We had a wonderful annual meeting here at Good Shepherd — all good news! Our budget is
balanced. Our attendance is up. We have some great new people coming to our church. For me, our
excitement and joy was exemplified by the sight of the children of St. Joseph in Camden for Camden
Christmas.
Deacon Carl frequently provides us with a video showing us this year’s Camden Christmas
celebration. It always shows the joy of the Rowan student shoppers and the joy of the present wrappers,
and the unbridled delight of the children as they opened their presents. This year in particular I was
touched by the reaction of the children of the Joseph Fund of Camden. A wonderful young filmmaker
by the name of Julian Zuniga has been with us for a few years. He follows Carl around with our
volunteer Rowan students as they go shopping with the funds we all have collected and donated. They
run through toy stores and toy departments collecting the toys the children requested, making sure they
will get what they want for Christmas.
The children who receive these gifts have so few choices in their lives. They have hopes and dreams,
but they have so few indications that their dreams will ever be realized, no matter how hard they work.
They have such low expectations, even at the ages of 5 & 6. They lose their ability to dream. Our
dreams propel us through life. Our ability to dream gives us the sense that we can be more, we can
succeed, that God is with us in our lives.
So receiving even a simple silly little toy tells a child that somebody cares about them, that they are
worthwhile, that they too can dream.
Carl tells the story that after the children received their gifts, many of them asked if they had to give
them back after they had played with them for awhile. They needed to be told that the gifts now
belonged to them, the gifts were theirs and they could take them home.
That sense of ownership, that sense of being worthy of ownership is a gift too.
So, many of the children jumped up and down with their barely contained excitement. They jumped
up and down with a new-found confidence and sense of themselves as worthy, worthy of gifts. We
gave this to them and I thank God for the opportunity, every year, to give gifts to the children of
Camden. And I thank God for all of you, for your generosity, for your care, for being willing to share
God’s unconditional love with others.
Blessings,
Mother Susan+

Deacon Carl’s Corner
February – the Month of Love!!!
I really enjoy finding a Valentine’s card for my wife each year. I always purchase at least two – one humorous card and one to make up for the humorous card and everything else I need to apologize for since January 1! We always have a great time on the 14th!
To me, this is a month we can prove to those around us that “love is action”. And, we follow someone that demonstrated that more than any other person in history. Here are just a few examples of how Jesus taught us about love and how to express it:
1. Matthew 14:14 Jesus heals the sick - in love: “When Jesus landed, he saw a large crowd, he had compassion and healed their sick.”
2. John 11:35,38 Jesus Raised the Dead in Love “Jesus wept…once more deeply moved...”
3. Matthew 15:32 Jesus Fed the Hungry in Love “I have compassion for these people; they have been with me for three days and have nothing to eat…..”
4. Mark 6:34 Jesus Preached the Kingdom in Love “When Jesus landed and saw a large crowd, he had compassion for them…”
5. John 17:20-21 Jesus Interceded for His Disciples and the Church in Love “My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you.”
6. John 3:16 Jesus Gave his Life for the World in Love “For God so LOVED the world that he gave – he gave- his only Son that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.”
I do believe that Jesus would give you and me a “humorous” card to make us smile. What would follow would be a look, a word, a hug, a memory that would remind us how he expresses his love throughout that day and every other day.
Enjoy being loved today. Be sure to look up, take his hand and tell him how much you love him!

OUTREACH
We hope that everyone had a blessed Christmas and Happy New Year! Thank you again for all the donations of clothing and shoes that you left for us to deliver to the people of Camden in 2019. Let’s start 2020 off on a giving note and as you put away your Christmas things and all the new gifts that you rec’d, weed out some of your clothing and shoes that you no longer need to make room for the new! The people of Camden can use them! They are always in dire need of men’s shoes and clothing. If you have items that you wish to donate, please place them in manageable size bags only, on our front porch and we will be happy to take them to St. Wilfrid’s clinic to be distributed. We live at 223 Highland Terrace, Pitman.
Thank you, Deacon Carl and Ellie Dunn
Contemplative Prayer Time Before Our Worship Services
For those who seek a time for quiet prayer on Saturdays and Sundays, Mother Susan opens the church on Saturdays at 4:30 PM for the 5:30 PM service. We ask that 4:30 PM to 5:15 PM be a quiet prayerful time. Likewise, for Sundays, she will be in the Church at 9 AM for a quiet time from 9 AM to 9:30 AM. We ask that all who come early to church honor these times as times for quiet prayer and contemplation.

OUR PRAY-ERS MINISTRY
Each Sunday during Communion time, our team of Pray-ers offer prayers with our parishioners. We have now expanded this meaningful ministry to our Saturday evening Holy Eucharist at 5:30pm.
After you receive Holy Communion, if you want/need additional prayers, there will be a team of Pray-ers in the front of the Church who are willing to pray with you. These prayers can be offered in joy for a Blessing you have received, or can be to help ease a burden which lies on your heart. Please take advantage of this wonderful ministry of our parish. All prayers are confidential.
Anyone interested in being a Pray-er Minister at the Saturday night or Sunday services please
contact Barbara Elliott @ 589-3980 or elliottb@rowan.edu

Thank You God for Your Special Words
By Alice Aultman
It was with pleasure that I was in a recent discussion group. There were
questions that made us all think about how we felt about our lives and what we believed.
So I’m going to cheat a bit and use a scripture reading I firmly believe in. This is Galatians 5:22-23. This is a list
the fruits of the spirit, but it covers many things: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness,
gentleness, and self-control.
If we were to investigate each of the fruits separately we would have pages
of suggestions as to how we are to live. Let’s just think about a few general ideas about these verses. Yes, we are
to love others as ourselves and treat them as we wish to be treated. That
shouldn’t be too hard but sometimes I think of others as none of my concern. This is not right.
Do we always exercise patience when
we want something? I sure need help with this one. Sometimes it is so hard
to wait for something I want …. and I complain.
Joy is something that can be hard to show sometimes when things are not
going our way. We should all be joyful, having our needs met. Many in the
world have nothing to be joyful about.
Next on my list is self-control. If one has this, some of the others just fall into place.
Thank You God for your guidance and
the directions you provide us for our lives.

Shawl/Caring Hands Ministry
Every so often we get a request for a Prayer
Shawl to be given to someone in need.
Sometimes it is during an illness, sometimes
during grieving periods after the loss of a loved
one. The Shawls are crocheted or knitted by the
women in this ministry. Every other Tuesday
morning you will find our Caring Hands Group
knitting/crocheting the shawls in our Conference
room. They are made with prayer for those who
will receive them.
I can’t begin to tell you of the peace and comfort
these shawls have brought to so many people.
They need not be members of our parish. Need is
spread everywhere.
If you know of a need, just ask Pat Braidwood.
ADULT FORUM
Adult Forum will meet on Sunday, February 2 following the 10 a.m. service. They will continue with Marcus Borg’s “Embracing an Adult Faith.” (Note: this is the final forum under Mel Caron’s facilitation.)

The Thursday Study Group will continue with
Living the Questions - Painting the Stars:
Science, Religion and an Evolving Faith” This

study will be based on Bishop Shelby Spong’s
book, Why Christianity Must Change or Die.”
Participants should order a copy and come
prepared on February 20 to take a look at
Chapter One.

Treasurer's Blog - January 2020 Results for 12 months of 2019
Total Income:
Here is a breakdown of our income for 12 months of 2019:
Budget Actual
Loose Plate 2,000 2,191 Envelopes 199,881 221,538
Special 8,000 8,551
Other 200 415
Budget 237,158
Deficit (27,077)
Income 210,081 232,695
Our envelope income finished strong. It appears that many parishioners added to their pledges and other contributors gave at a greater amount than anticipated. We had anticipated having an income deficit of over $25,000 and it was less than $5,000 for the year.
Thank you for your support during 2019. We ask for your continued support of 2020 stewardship campaign in 2020.
Total expenses:
Here is a recap of our expenses for 12 months of 2019.
Budget Actual
Expenses 237,158 226,382
Our expenses finished lower than our estimates for this year due to gas heating that was lower, pension payments which were adjusted by the Church Pension Group, not having a full-time organist for four months, and a few line items that were lower than budgeted.
As a result of your increased income support and our expense controls we were happy to report a surplus for 2019 of $6,313. Congratulations to everyone who helped make this possible.

(The Lay Leaders will be Jack Daugherty
and Chuck Lezenby, Clergy involvement
at their discretion.)
Stations of the Cross are a very solemn
way to walk the Way of the Cross, the
same as Jesus did over 2000 years ago.
Although we know the outcome of the
Great Triduum, at that time Jesus’ friends
and followers did not. We must place
ourselves in that same mindset of not
knowing Jesus' triumphant outcome!
Please join us. It is twenty minutes of
worthwhile time on the seven Friday's in
Lent.
Lenten Meditations &
Pamphlets
On the table at the back of the church you
will find an array of booklets and
pamphlets for Lent. Please help yourself,
take home and use these meditations to
strengthen your Lenten devotion and
prayer time.
Please Be Considerate of
Our Neighbors!
We are so glad you're here! But when you
park near the church, please be considerate
of our neighbors and make sure you have
fully cleared their driveways. Thank you!
