The Word Became FleshThe Word Became Flesh
At Christmastide we celebrate the central event in the history of the earth.
What happened at Bethlehem altered the universe forever. Something really
new took place when God became a human
being: not an interpretation but an event.
This was far more than learning something new
about the way the world is. When Pythagoras
discovered that the square on the hypotenuse is
equal to the sum of the squares on the other
two sides, he found something that was just as true the day before, though
no one knew it. But in 50 B. C. to say, “God is Man” would not have been true
in the same way in which it was true in 10 A. D. This changes everything.
While Mary was pregnant, the angel told Joseph about the child soon to be
born, “You shall call him Jesus, because he shall save his people from their
sins.” (Matthew 1:21) This is why he came, not to break the yoke of Caesar
and to bring in the kingdom of David, but to break the yoke of sin and set up
the kingdom of God. In His great love for us, He made the long cross-cultural
journey from eternal glory to the conflict-ridden Middle East.
The heart of the problem is the problem of the heart. Jesus came to change
people’s hearts, not just to free us from the penalty of sin and leave the bitter
cause. He came to free us from the power of evil in our lives. He came to
give new life, to heal us of sin within, to set us free to desire the right things in
the right way.
Jesus fully represents our fallen race. The genealogy in Matthew 1:2-16 lists
men and women who were notorious for their evil character. “David was the
father of Solomon, whose mother had been Uriah’s wife.” (Matthew 1:6) A
sorry tale of adultery and murder lies behind that brief verse. No one can be
ashamed to claim his help. No matter how far you have fallen, no matter how
well you think you have done, Jesus is fully adequate to bring new life. Jesus
became a human being so that we can become truly and fully human for the
first time.
Merry Christmas from Pastor Michael

Nine Deacons attended our November 15 meeting. Geraldine Hoyt was absent due to illness. Also
present were Pastor Michael, Ron Fong, Kamroon and Mustapha Baksh. Pastor Michael opened
the meeting with prayer and a devotional.
The minutes of the October meeting were approved as read. The treasurer’s report was accepted
and filed for audit. Deacon Peggy Handono, presented a written report based on the information re-
ported at the Session Meeting she attended on October 27. Karen Jaycox was scheduled to attend
the November 17 Session Meeting as the Deacon’s representative. Geraldine Hoyt, Mary Wolfe and
Dawn Lunn will prepare communion on December 4. Coffee assignments were confirmed.
Parish lists were reviewed and eight new members were assigned to parishes. Members Tim and
Jeanne Stachowiak will be relocating to Austin, Texas. We wish them well in the future.
It was reported that the new total for “Let the Bell Ring Again Fund” was $3,904. Our original goal
was achieved; sincere thanks to all who contributed. Praise be to God, as work continues to have
the bell ringing again by year’s end.
The Deacons have initiated a program that identifies and recognizes members of the congregation
for providing a service or doing something good. This program, known as “Acts of Kindness” was
conceived by and is also being implemented by Deacon Karen Jaycox. The first member recog-
nized was Justin Chaikin. He was sent a card and a $25.00 gift certificate to Cold Stone Creamery.
Thanks, Justin, for your continued contributions to IPC. The meeting was closed with prayer.
Christmas Poinsettias Christmas Poinsettias -- Shirley MurrayShirley Murray
In keeping with the Deacons’ annual tradition of celebrating the birth of Christ, poinsettias to deco-
rate the sanctuary will be available for purchase by signing up with Shirley Murray
on Sunday, December 4 and 11 during the coffee hour following worship. You may
also place your order by calling Shirley at 408-269-1516.
Poinsettias can be dedicated to a loved one, in memory of someone dear to you, a
sick friend or any other occasion. Dedications will be listed in the Bulletin on
Sunday December 18. The plants will be placed in the sanctuary on December 17, and may be
picked up after worship service on December 25. The cost of each Poinsettia is $8.50.
Deacons in Action Deacons in Action - Editors
Sincere thanks to June Dawson for welcoming us to the November 15 monthly Deacon’s meeting.
We had an opportunity to witness first hand our Ministry of Compassion and Service set the stage for
their ongoing activities in service to our congregation. Most impressive, is the careful consideration
and planning for each and every congregant to insure that the church resources are available to
those in need. It was evident to us that our Deacons have their fingers on the pulse of the changing
needs of our congregation. We now have a greater appreciation for their benevolent ministry.

MissionS Update PRAY FOR OPPRESSED WOMEN AND CHILDREN IN SUDAN PRAY FOR OPPRESSED WOMEN AND CHILDREN IN SUDAN -- Patti BoylandPatti Boyland
At IPC there is a group of us who meet monthly to pray for the women and children in Sudan. We are part of a larger national organization; “She is Safe” (SIS), devoted to helping women and chil-
dren in the poorest and least-reached parts of the world.
In today’s world women and children are the least fed, least educated, often most abused, abducted, abandoned and enslaved. They comprise 80% of the world’s refugees, 70% of the poor, 66% of the illiterate, and 80% of the unreached. Millions are trafficked and millions more endure female mutila-tion of which, 500,000 die each year. SIS is devoted to helping these women and children through
ministries in Africa (Mali, Sudan, Egypt), the Middle East, India, Nepal, China and Indonesia.
SIS has invited those who care, to be advocates in an area listed above. Advocates then commit to praying for and helping support ministries in their selected area. Prayer draws us together and con-nects us with God’s heart for at risk women and children. Prayer is also a powerful medium for us to
join in God’s work to help free and empower these women and children.
For more than a year our group has been meeting on the second Tuesday of each month in the McKowen Room at 10 AM and at 7 PM. We feel privileged to be a part of God’s work with our pray-
ers. We would love for you to select a time convenient to you, and join us in prayer.
FAITH PROMISE WORKS! FAITH PROMISE WORKS! -- Bonnie Nichols, Teresa OliverBonnie Nichols, Teresa Oliver Faith promise is an individual’s promise of a monetary contribution for mission outreach. It is made after prayerful consideration and is used to support Missions Funds over and above donations to the General Fund. A willing donation to mission outreach provides the resources to help fulfill Jesus’ promise of salvation to people everywhere. Over the last 11 years, because of your generous contributions, Mission Outreach has continued to explore new opportunities and look for new ways to serve. In 2011 IPC provided prayer & financial support to three additional Missionaries: David & Sara Treece with Interserve, Richard & Wendy Yancey with Pioneers and Caroline Kurtz with the Light of Hope Ministry. In 2011 we were visited by several Missionaries who shared what God is doing in the remote areas with the support of your generous contributions: May – Jack Blanch with The Navigators August – David & Sara T with Interserve October – Caroline Kurtz with Presbyterian Frontier Fellowship (PFF) for the Arssi Oromo outreach. Funds from our well-attended Crab Feed in February were sent to the Arssi Oromo outreach. To learn more about the missions IPC is supporting, talk to one of your Missions Team Members: Pastor Michael Boyland, Patti Boyland, Kamroon Baksh, Mustapha Baksh, Mary Ellen McKowen, Bonnie Nichols, Teresa Oliver, Jenni Pellot and Virginia Stull. Each week use your standard offering envelope to make your contribution and record your faith promise amount on the “Missions” line. You may also mail your faith promise offering to the Church office and note “Missions Outreach” on your
check. Help support Missions - The Heart of the Church!

Session News & Notes - Ron Fong
The Bell
Session authorized a $2,340 contract to install
the bell on the roof of the choir room.
Tri-City Free Breakfast
In October 2011:
2443 meals were served, 594 provision bags
were distributed, 629 hours were volunteered,
an average of 134 guests were served at each
breakfast and 178 lbs. of peanut butter were
collected for distribution during our participation
in “Make a Difference Day.”
Membership
Session held a special meeting on Friday
November 18, to accept 8 new members:
Michael & Jeanette Santo, Waymond & Gustina
Ho, Dave & Betty Burke and Richard & Mary
Lou Craig.
Session added 17 members to its inactive roll.
The current church membership, including the
new members, is 120. Per Capita Taxes for
2012 to Presbytery will be $32 per person.
Clerk Actions
Session adopted Roberts Book of Order as its
parliamentary guide with the exception of allow-
ing online email meetings to be held within a
fixed period, and affirmed at the next actual
Session Meeting with minutes.
There will be six Presbytery Meetings in 2012 -
January 31, March 13, May 8, June 12,
September 11 and November 13.
Joan Fong is a nominee for “delegate to the
PCUSA 220th General Assembly” in 2012. This
will be voted on at the San Francisco Presbytery
meeting in Walnut Creek on January 31.
Finance
Finance advises that general giving for 2011 is
lower than 2010, but rental income is higher than
2010. We anticipate ending 2011 in the black,
primarily because the budgeted re-roofing of the
Social Hall will occur in 2012 instead of 2011.
The 2012 budget will be adopted by Session in
December after reviewing the stewardship drive.
Nominating Committee (Nom Comm)
Nom Comm is in the process of identifying candi-
dates for 8 Deacon and 8 Elder vacancies. A
Congregational Meeting to elect officers will be
held on December 18.
Buildings & Grounds
Session has authorized $1200 for commercial
cleaning of the sanctuary carpets.
Don Carson is working on revising our rental
lease with the Communidad Church.
Orion Security checks our facilities twice nightly.
The Clerk plans to have bids by the end of the
year for re-roofing Social Hall (funding in part by
a CDBG grant from the City of Fremont). The
goal is to complete re-roofing by June 30, 2012.
PG&E and the Clerk are conducting an energy
audit with the goal of reducing our energy con-
sumption. This is may reduce our expenses, and
minimize our footprint on the planet.
Worship
Session approved:
$350 to acquire new microphones.

Youth Ministry - Anh Truong
12 Stones Student Ministries:12 Stones Student Ministries:
The goal of 12 Stones Ministry at IPC is to prepare
students 7th grade through college to accept
Christ. The investment, dedication and prayers of
IPC 12 Stones Ministry is to help insure Christ is
known, living and constantly influencing the lives
of our youth.
12 SM: Youth Fellowship:12 SM: Youth Fellowship:
Just as a stone is a piece of rock that has been
refined through the course of its life, people also
need to be refined by Christ to be part of His King-
dom.
12 Stones Youth Fellowship, therefore, set out to
challenge students with life-changing decisions.
The truth needs to be told, heard and lived. We
do not want to change who you are and He does
not want to either. Come as you are - Broken,
Happy, Sad, Hardened, Failure, Powerful or any-
thing else and join us on Fridays at 7:45 - 9:45 pm
in room #3. For more information visit our Face-
book group page: “12Stones Fellowship.”
12 SM: Sunday Youth Service12 SM: Sunday Youth Service
The point of Sunday morning service is more than
just waking up early and learning about Christ. It’s
about being with the church body as one and wor-
shiping. We use an array of teaching tools to get
God’s word known and understood. Join us Sun-
day morning at 10:15 -11:25 am in the Sanctuary
and in room #3 after worship.

Sunday Morning Youth ServiceSunday Morning Youth Service
Sunday Youth Worship is devoted to helping our
students solve problems as they go through differ-
ent stages of awareness of what Christ means to
them. We are using the book “Thrive - Do More
Than Survive Your Faith.” to help them deal
with spiritual questions and problems they are
likely to encounter as they approach adulthood.
This 30-day devotional will be used over a 30-
week period in our Sunday Youth Worship.
According to the author,
Ben Hardman,
”teenagers face numer-
ous challenges as they
make the transition from
high school into adulthood, including the chal-
lenge of maintaining a vibrant faith. The spiritual
topics of childhood and adolescence morph into
new questions that often require deeper belief
and understanding.”
Hardman has worked with teenagers helping
them to find answers to the spiritual questions
and problems they face as they keep Christ the
main focus in their lives.
This book is designed to help teenagers explore
“How decisions made now affect their future
What idolatry is and how it still exists in our
world
Developing spiritual disciplines
Journeying with God
Understanding and living out the gospel.”
Our goal in Youth Worship is to challenge our
students to explore the Scriptures with a new
outlook. They can then question their choices
to help them satisfy their need for spiritual faith
and guidance. We will begin with the origins of
Scripture and explore ways our youths can in-
corporate the Word of God in their lives. We
strive to help our teenagers in their search for a
deeper relationship with Christ.

Children’s Ministry
November 27November 27thth--January 8January 8thth
This winter, many will be without the basic resources needed to keep warm and healthy. You can
make a difference in the lives of those less fortunate by giving the gift of warmth to someone in need
this holiday season. I Kidz! invites you to contribute to IPC Coat Drive by
bringing your gently used coats of any size to the Church on Sunday. There
is a portable closet in the narthex where you can leave your donation. These
coats will be donated to CityTeam Ministries, Oakland, during their January
Coat Drive. They will then be distributed to the needy in the community.
We need individuals who can assist iKidz in sorting, boxing and counting your donated coats.
Contact Jeanette Beland via the Church Office if you would like to help.
Hirsch Kids Club Hirsch Kids Club -- Jeanette OllisonJeanette Ollison
Hirsch Kids Club, the Bible club at Hirsch Elementary School, is continuing to make a significant
impact this year with 100+ students attending each week. Imagine so many students hearing Bible
stories, praying, and learning about God each Monday afternoon right on the school campus! The
children also have a chance to play sports, memorize Bible verses, and enjoy crafts and games, all
centered around a weekly theme.
For the next couple of weeks the students will be working on a Christmas presentation that will in-
clude a skit, songs, and memory verses that tell a part of the Christmas story. On December 12,
there will be a Happy Birthday Jesus party to remember the time that Jesus was born. Kids Club will
be extended an additional hour, with parents invited to watch the presentation and enjoy a few treats
afterward.
Please pray for the volunteers that we will be able to connect with the parents and encourage those
who are not attending a church to worship at IPC. It would be wonderful to see the children and their
families growing in faith and love for God.
Sunday December 17Sunday December 17
It was a dark and chilly night….so begins the story that would change the lives
of a group of shepherds for years to come. What happened on that “night of
nights?” Join iKidz as we share our drama/musical “Which Way to the Sta-
ble?” as part of IPC’s Annual Christmas Program. What a great opportunity to
invite family, friends and neighbors to a celebration of incarnation. There will
be something for everyone.

Activities Update
On Thursday October 27, Cornerstone Editors attended a Session meeting. Session is the Council
for the congregation. It is composed of the Pastor, moderator of Session, and eleven members who
were elected by the congregation to active service as Ruling Elders. “The Session has responsibility
for governing the congregation and guiding its witness to the sovereign activity of God in the world,
so that the congregation is and becomes a community of faith, hope, love and witness.”
Session meetings at IPC are held on the third Thursday of each month. Any member of the congre-
gation may attend a session meeting as a visitor and take part in discussions but cannot vote.
One important appointee is the Clerk of Session, Ron Fong, whose functions include capturing and
recording every detail of each meeting. See an edited version of the November 17 minutes on P4.
In general, we gained a lot from this meeting. There was a formal agenda that the moderator used
to keep the meeting on track. It was impressive to see the number of issues that were resolved or
addressed in the allotted time. We ask that you continue to pray that Session be granted the
guidance, wisdom and compassion to govern our church.
It is that wonderful time of the year when we can all give a little to help many. Bring
your unwrapped gifts for persons of any age on December 11 and celebrate with us.
You may include paper and ribbon if you wish. The gifts will be distributed by Tri-City
Volunteers to needy families in our community. The Lord has done so much for us so
let us respond with generous hearts.
Christmas Concert Christmas Concert -- Pastor MichaelPastor Michael
The annual Christmas concert begins at 6 pm on Saturday December 17. This year’s program will
feature the iKidz drama troupe performing a musical. As part of this musical,
the children will lead the congregation in singing Christmas carols. Special
song and instrumental selections will be performed by the IPC choir and
Nancy and Brad Catania, our guests for the afternoon. Pastor Michael on his
guitar and Patti on the flute, will perform a duet. Hot drinks and cookies will
be served in Social Hall after the concert.

Anyone who trusts in Jesus Christ and has been baptized is welcome to partake of
the Lord’s Supper in our church. It is a gift from God for us who do not deserve it,
but who gratefully receive his love and his cleansing power. We prepare to receive
the bread and cup by confessing our sins and doing our utmost to patch up any
differences with other people. At IPC we celebrate communion on the first Sunday
of each month, and on Thursday mornings at 7:30 am in the Sanctuary.

organizations such as the World Affairs Council
in San Francisco and Model U.N. He greatly
enjoys singing in the IPC choir and says, “the
people there are
the best.” Adrian
shares his views
about the pros
and cons of being
the last child liv-
ing at home: “The
advantage is that
I have my parents’ undivided attention. The
disadvantage is that I have my parents’ undi-
vided attention.”
Jeff is the Stewardship Elder. Most people
know him as the man who asks for their pledge
card. Weekdays, he is an engineering program
manager at NetApp. He loves hiking up snow-
covered mountains with the IPC Alpine Club.
Karen is a Deacon, program coordinator for the
Tri-City Free Breakfast Program and shares the
monthly IPC “Life of the Body.” These appoint-
ments allow her to interface with wonderful
people who give of themselves and show God’s
love by helping others.
The Jaycoxes attended Sunnyvale Presbyterian
in Santa Clara. When they decided to look for a
church closer to home, they selected IPC.
From the first visit, their kids loved Steve Dang,
the youth director; and the family felt uplifted by
the music of Dan Chaikin’s praise band. The
second week they attended a ministry fair. At
the encouragement of Pastor Michael and oth-
ers they attended a potluck the third week. The
fourth week Mary Ellen asked Karen to be her
guest at the ladies luncheon. By then the entire
Jaycox family felt they were part of IPC. Karen
states, “we were loved into the church.”
Knowing Your CongregationKnowing Your Congregation
The Jaycox family have been members of Irving-
ton Presbyterian Church for the last 4 years. Jeff
and Karen are the proud parents of thee children:
Brendan, Colette, and Adrian.
Jeff was born into a Navy family. As a child he
lived in many locations including Hawaii where he
attended high school. His family was stationed in
Guam in 1962 when Typhoon Karen, a category 5
super-typhoon, devastated the island. Karen
teases him that, even with that advance warning,
he still married a Karen! Jeff became a Christian
while attending church in Maryland. He received
his electrical engineering degrees from MIT and
began work in Dallas, TX. Karen was born in
North Dakota, the youngest of 7 girls. Two of her
sisters were missionaries and she became a
Christian at an early age. Karen taught in Japan
and Mexico and had decided to pursue English as
a Second Language in graduate school, which
would better enable her to travel the world. She
stopped in Dallas for the summer, met Jeff and
laughs, “instead of traveling the world, I now live in
Fremont with 3 kids and a dog!”
Brendan, their eldest child, is 22. He was born
with hydrocephalus that resulted in severe mental
retardation. Brendan resides in a wonderful group
home in Union City where Karen and Jeff visit him
every Sunday. He loves all things musical and
can entertain himself for hours on a keyboard.
Colette, age 20, is a sophomore at Columbia Uni-
versity where she is majoring in political science
with an emphasis on the Middle East. She thrives
in this academic environment and is having the
time of her life in New York City. Arabic is her
most challenging class.
Adrian, age 17, is a senior at Mission San Jose
High School and an Eagle Scout. His strong
interest in world affairs keeps him involved in
