From Te Rector

Te ReverendDonald D. Binder, PhD

Each year, the Diocese of Virginia holds its Cler-gy, Spouses and Lay Professionals conference atShrine Mont in early May. As you might imagine, the weather out there is beautiful during mid-Spring, andso one of the things I like to do during our free af-ternoon is to take the “hike to the cross,” a moderatetrek part-way up a bordering mountain to a large crossbuilt upon a multistoried tower. Not only does this af-ford you the enjoyment of the fresh mountain air, but your payo at the end is a beautiful view of the valleydown below from the top of the tower. Along the up- ward journey, the fourteen Stations of the Cross linethe way, so usually I pause at each one to reect, pray,and sometimes catch my breath! ere’s only one problem. e timing of theSpring conference is such that it always falls duringEaster season. And so it seems a bit odd on my an-

nual hike to be focusing on the crucixion during thefty-day period when we are supposed to be rejoicingin Christ’s resurrection with alleluias galore!

We experienced a similar thing during the lastHoly Land pilgrimage I led back in 2014. Now onsuch a pilgrimage, it is pretty much mandatory that you walk the Stations of the Cross in Jerusalem. Buthere again, we just happened to be there in the middleof Easter season. As a partial corrective to this stateof aairs, I convinced the somewhat reluctant St.George’s chaplain to let me conclude our devotions

with something that the Franciscans now commonly

use in Jerusalem - a Fifteenth Station: the announce-ment to the women of Jesus’ resurrection at the emptytomb.

ese two sets of experiences highlighted to methe imbalance of our liturgical expression, at least in Western Christendom. at is, we place a great deaof emphasis on Lent and Holy Week each year - andrightly so. But then once Easter Day draws to a close we seemingly coast through the rest of the fty-dayseason on mere liturgical inertia. To be sure, the al-leluias are still there all season long. But compared toLent, the intensity (and often the Sunday attendance)is lacking. After doing some reading on this matter, I dis-covered that I was not the only one thinking alongthese lines. Back in the 1980s, some leaders within theRoman Catholic Church developed a rite for Easterseason called the Via Lucia , the Way of Light. It formsan Easter counterpart to the Lenten Stations of theCross, focusing on fourteen biblical episodes that tookplace during the fty days leading up to Pentecost:

1. Jesus is raised from the dead (Matthew 28:5b-6a) 2. e nding of the empty tomb ( John 20:8) 3. Mary Magdalene meets the risen Jesus ( John 20:14b-18) 4. Jesus appears on the road to Emmaus (Luke 24:15, 25-27) 5. Jesus is known in the breaking of bread (Luke 24:29-32)

TELEPHONE TREE ere have been requests from parishioners whodo not have email for a “telephone tree” to be acti- vated when issues arise after the Sunday services,such as weather closures, deaths, and illnesses. To be included on this list, please sign up in theChurch Oce. Questions should be directed toHelen Parker at 703-497-5927.

6. Jesus appears to the disciples in Jerusalem (Luke 24:38-40) 7. Jesus gives the disciples his peace and the power to forgive sins ( John 20: 19b, 20b-23)

8. Jesus strengthens the faith of omas ( John 20:24-29)

9. Jesus appears by the Sea of Tiberias ( John 21:10-12) 10. Jesus forgives Peter and commands him to feed his sheep ( John 21:15, 17b, 19b) 11. Jesus commissions the disciples upon the mountain (Matthew 28:19-20) 12. e Ascension of Jesus (Mark 16:19-20) 13. Mary and the disciples wait in prayer (Acts 1:13a, 14)

14. e Holy Spirit descends at Pentecost (Acts 2:2-4) It is on my “to-do” list to adapt that RC liturgyfor use within the Episcopal Church and throughoutthe wider Anglican Communion by incorporating de- votional segments from our Book of Common Prayer .Perhaps over time, such a rite might even become ascommonly used within the Church as the Stations ofthe Cross presently are.

I hope so - and not just for the liturgical balance

it would bring. at’s because as a church, we oftenbecome what we pray. During Lent we focus on re-penting from our sins and seeking God’s forgivenessthrough Christ’s great act of love on Good Friday. eStations of the Cross help us liturgically in that jour-

ney.But during Easter season and into Pentecost, wefocus on renewal and mission to the world throughChrist’s resurrection and the power of the Holy SpiritObserving the Via Lucia during this time would litur-gically propel us beyond Easter Sunday into a moreprayerfully focused exercise of that crucial commis-sion.

In advance of my liturgical adaptation, I wouldencourage all of you to reect upon the above passagesas part of your Easter devotions. Particularly given the

ongoing discussions our parish has been having aboutreaching out to the next generation with the messageof the Gospel, such prayerful reections may lend usgreater insights as to how best to accomplish that mis-sion.

As for me, at this year’s Spring Conference, I planto take that hike once again. And as I do, I intend to walk the Via Lucia for the very rst time on my way tothe top. I trust I will nd it a tting liturgical expres-sion of both our Easter joy and our Easter calling.

e journey through the six “persecution” coun-

tries ends this month. e sixth country is North Ko-rea, the worst example by far. In the “Prayers of thePeople,” …

[P]ray for Christians and others around the world,especially those in … North Korea, who continue to face persecution for their faith.

North Korea comes up often in the news, but usu-ally for such things as their threat to annihilate New York City with a nuclear weapon or for yet anotherarrest of a tourist on trumped-up charges. While the“facts” behind these stories that the North Korean

government gladly shares are almost always humor-ous, the persecution faced by Christians in this coun-try is not funny.

North Korea, the hermit kingdom, remains argu-ably the most isolated country in the world. Its consti-tution guarantees religious freedom, but this countryhas enjoyed little of it in more than 60 years of ex-istence. e only acceptable religion is Cheondogyo,the cult of the rst leader Kim Il-Sung, and all otherreligions are harshly repressed, even though the gov-ernment has built four “show” churches in the capitalof Pyongyang. No one knows the actual numbers ofChristians in North Korea, but some estimates say upto 300,000 of the approximately 26 million people arebelievers (opendoorsusa.org). Christians cannot wor-ship openly, and if they are caught during secret wor-ship, they will likely be sent to a prison/labor camp,facing torture or death.

e Christian Broadcasting Network website(www1.cbn.com) tells the story of a young womanKim Eun Jin who grew up in Pyongyang as a se-

cret Christian. Her family worshiped together everySaturday evening in the back room of their smallapartment. Kim told how “[w]e had to be very quiet. We whispered when we prayed, sang songs or readthe Bible. We often covered our heads to mue thenoise.” e only Bible in their house was a ChineseBible from the early 20th century which her grand-mother translated into Korean. e family’s worshipmeetings slowly grew to include a few friends andextended family. Unfortunately, the police discoveredand raided this underground church in 1994. Kim’s

father and an uncle disappeared into a labor camp

Her mother, siblings and grandmother escaped intothe mountains, nally making it into China in 2005 with the help of a Chinese pastor. She now lives safelyin Seoul, South Korea.

One can nd many stories like Kim’s on the inter-net, people who were helped in their quest for freedomby Chinese Christians, including ethnic Koreans liv-ing in China, and Western Christians who feel calledto take on the dangerous mission of helping a handfuof people escape from North Korea. e number ofescapees each year is small but they provide evidence

of the continuing strength and vitality of Christianityin North Korea, in spite of the severe repression. eOpendoorsusa.org website oers these three prayerrequests for the Christians of North Korea:

• Pray for the 50,000 - 70,000 Christians sueringfrom torture in North Korean labor camps.

• Pray that God would open [the North Koreandictator] Kim Jong-un’s eyes to the surpassing gloryof the gospel of Jesus Christ.

• Pray for Christians who are afraid to tell theirown spouses and children about their faith.

In the comfortable life here in the WashingtonDC area, it is important to keep these people who risktheir lives for Jesus Christ in prayer and let their faithserve as an inspiration for those who enjoy the free-doms they have never known.

Pohick Episcopal Church

UPDATE ON ISSUES IN THE A NGLICAN COMMUNIONDon Brownlee, Co-chair, Policy and Planning Commission

Tis monthly report is part of the Vestry’s ongoing effort to in- form and update the Parish about the ongoing controversies within Te Episcopal Church (TEC) and the Anglican Communion. ese con-

troversies largely involve the blessing of same-sex unions, ordination ofnon-celibate homosexuals, interpretation of Scripture, and breakdownof traditional boundary lines between Provinces.

Bishops, priests and lay people from around the AnglicanCommunion will gather in Lusaka, Zambia in mid-April for thesixteenth meeting of the Anglican Consultative Council, or ACC. e session has gathered particular attention because it is the rstsignicant communion-wide meeting since the Primates voted in

January to impose “consequences”on e Episcopal Church for ourdecision at last summer’s GeneralConvention to extend sacramen-tal marriage to same-sex couples,

“requiring that for a period of three years TEC [e EpiscopalChurch] no longer represent us on ecumenical and interfaithbodies, should not be appointed or elected to an internal stand-ing committee and that while participating in the internal bodiesof the Anglican Communion, they will not take part in decisionmaking on any issues pertaining to doctrine or polity.” e ACC is one of four recognized “Instruments of Com-munion” or “Instruments of Unity”in the Anglican Communion,the others being the Archbishop of Canterbury, the once-a-de-cade meeting of bishops known as the Lambeth Council, and the

Primates Meeting. It is the only one of the four to have a writtenconstitution and by-laws, and the only one to include priests andlay people as well as bishops. Its published role is “facilitate theco-operative work of the churches of the Anglican Communion,exchange information between the Provinces and churches, andhelp to co-ordinate common action. It advises on the organisationand structures of the Communion, and seeks to develop commonpolicies with respect to the world mission of the Church, includ-ing ecumenical matters.”

e full body of the ACC meets every two or three years. isis the sixteenth such gathering, so it is referred to as “ACC 16.” e Archbishop of Canterbury is its president; the group elects a

chairman, and delegates to various committees, at each meeting.Its steering committee and other organizations meet as required.

e theme of ACC 16 is “Intentional Discipleship in a Worldof Dierence. While a report on the recent Primates Meeting ison the agenda, most of the published program stresses how An-glicans engage “with each other,” and “with our local communityfor the sake of the wider community.” It is not clear at this writing whether the ACC will take any specic actions that would imple-ment the consequences voted by the Primates in January. But that Primates Meeting was no sooner over than participa-tion of e Episcopal Church in ACC 16 quickly became the nextashpoint for tensions within the Communion. e chairman of

the ACC, Bp. James Tengatenga, said e Episcopal Church hathe “right and responsibility” to attend. “Are they going to vote Yes, they are going to vote as it is their right and responsibility.”

Abp. Justin wrote the Primates in mid-March to tell them hehas “followed through (on the resolution quoted above) by chang-ing the representation of those bodies where I have the abilityto make a decision, so as to put into eectthe agreement we reached among ourselves.”But his letter also stressed the limits of thePrimates’ authority, and reiterated that theprovinces were both autonomous and inter-dependent. “For these reasons, I hope andpray that every province that is able will bepresent in Lusaka. e decisions we took in January can only haveeect if they gain general ownership amongst the Communiontaking in laity, priests and bishops.” But that plea was quickly rejected by the African provincesthat have the greatest theological dierences with e EpiscopaChurch and other provinces over these issues of human sexuality.

e Most Rev’d Dr Eliud Wabukala, primate of the provinceof Kenya and chairman of the Global Anglican Futures Confer-ence, or GAFCON, previously had issued a letter to his province

saying that while he remained “deeply com-mitted to the unity and restoration of ourbeloved Anglican Communion…ere canbe no true walking together with those who

persistently refuse to walk in accordance with God’s Word and the Anglican Churchof Kenya will not therefore be participating in the forthcomingmeeting of the ACC in Lusaka. “An opportunity has been missed to use the ACC for goodand it is increasingly clear that the GAFCON movement muscontinue to provide a focus for that godly unity so many of usdesire.” He later responded to Abp. Justin’s plea with a letter of hisown that said, “e Communion ‘instruments’ are not being usedso much as instruments of unity but as instruments to cajole or-thodox Global South provinces of the Communion into acquies-

cence with the secular sexual culture which has made such inroadsinto the Anglican Churches of the West…ere does not seem tobe any recognition that homosexual activity is a matter for repen-tance by those speaking on behalf of the London based AnglicanCommunion authorities…Instead, there are only calls to repent o‘homophobia.’” A few days later the Most Rev. Nicholas Okoh, primate of theprovince of Nigeria and vice-chairman of GAFCON’s primatescouncil, likewise said his province would not be attending. But he went further to say that Nigeria and provinces that share its theo

logical positions needed a “Special Sta-tus” within the Anglican Communion.

“As long as we are now candidates

for whom every opportunity in the An-glican Communion should be exploredto gradually teach us to embrace thenew sex culture, it will be unwise to deliberately walk into a well-prepared camp of recruitment, blackmail, indoctrination and toxicrelationship.” He pointed to the “great wisdom” in Great Britain’s decisions with regard to its relationship with the European Union and said, just as “the British Prime Minister is asking for a ‘Special Status’in the European Union for the United Kingdom…the AnglicanCommunion should begin to think in that direction for thoseProvinces that may never, for obvious reasons, embrace the sexualculture being promoted by some Provinces of the Church over andagainst the Bible as we received it. We need a “Special Status”.

* * * Elsewhere:

• e Church of New Zealand has taken the next step on thepath toward blessing same-sex marriages, and allowing ordinationof those in such marriages to the priesthood. e report from a“Way Forward” working group proposes two new liturgies that would allow for the blessing of same-sex couples who have beenmarried in a civil ceremony. It recommends a number of relatedchanges to the province’s canons, but retention of the current lan-

guage that leaves the decision to marry any couple up to the dis-cretion of each priest.“e working group believes that the proposed rites and ca-

nonical changes… if adopted, will enable every priest and bishopin the Anglican Church of this province to retain their integrity within the Church: those who believe the blessing of same-sexpersons is congruent with scripture, tikanga and doctrine, andthose who believe that such a blessing is contrary to these.”

e province’s two archbishops said the report “oers a mech-anism which could provide for the blessing of committed, mo-nogamous, life-long, same-sex relationships while upholding thedoctrine of Christian marriage as our Church has received it.”

ey acknowledged, “e Working Group, and this Church as a whole, is deeply aware that we are engaged in a discussion and de-bate that is taking place world-wide. At the recent meeting of thePrimates, which two of us attended, there was wide acknowledge-ment that these matters are and will be debated in every corner ofthe Anglican World and that, in time, every part of the Commu-nion will have to navigate these matters. e proposals will be considered by province’s General Synodin May. In 2014, the Synod rearmed the province’s Doctrineof Marriage as being between a man and a woman covenantedtogether in life-long delity. • However, it appears the Anglican Church of Canada will

not move forward with authorizing blessing of same-sex unionsat least, not now. e church’s General Synod is scheduled to con-sider a plan that would bless same-sex marriages when it meetthis summer. However, adoption would require approval of by atwo-thirds vote of the House of Bishops.

e bishops met in February to review the proposals and

underlying theological justication. “We spent a considerableamount of time discussing the theology of marriage and ourepiscopal role and responsibilities as chief pastors, and as guard-ians of the Church’s faith, order and unity” a statement said. “Weconcentrated on the relationship of the bishop to the Church lo-cally, nationally and with our Anglican Communion partners, andalongside and within synods. ese conversations led into consid-erations about the nature of our relationships within the House inlight of the deep dierences we have on the matter of changingthe Church’s teaching on marriage.” “In our exploration of these dierences it became clear to uthat the draft resolution to change the Marriage Canon to accom-modate the marriage of same-sex partners is not likely to pass inthe Order of Bishops by the canonical requirement.” • Presiding Bishop Michael Curry has suspended the bishopof the diocese of Lexington, Kentucky, the Rt. Rev. Douglas Hahnfrom his duties and from active ministry for one year. e “Accordbetween the two, reached as part of e Episcopal Church’s ca-nonical disciplinary processes, follows an admission by Bp. Hahnthat he had a sexual relationship with a female adult parishionerprior to his being elected as bishop, and that he withheld this in-formation from his wife and family, and from the search commit-tee that chose him.

e diocese’s Standing Committee, which now exercises ec-clesiastical authority in the diocese, issued a statement saying, As members of Christ’s Holy Church we believe in confessionrepentance, and forgiveness. We also understand that actions haveconsequences.” e statement acknowledge that the relationship between theDiocese and Bp. Hahn “has been seriously strained by Hahn’s ac-tions.” In a letter to his diocese, Bp. Hahn said, “I was wrong, andI have regretted it ever since,” but beyond confessing his sin toanother priest, “I did not reveal this matter, believing that to doso would cause greater harm to my wife Kaye, other persons, and

other communities.” “Many people, including you, have been hurt by my behaviorand their consequences. I am sorry and I ask for your forgiveness.” e Standing Committee is working with the Presiding Bishop’oce to select a bishop to serve to serve the diocese during BpHahn’s suspension.

It is important to remember that despite all these controversies, the work of thChurch - globally, nationally, and locally - goes on. As Bp. Susan observed, we consciouslyrefuse to be a “museum church.” Our Stewardship Commission continues to remind us ofthe ways we at Pohick carry out that work, and spread the good News. We continue to “bthe only Bible some people will ever read.” Trough youth mission trips, food donations tLCAC, donations of school supplies and backpacks, the Gunston School tutoring programand the Community of Hope, Pohick continues to “leak the love of God” to those in need

MUSIC NOTESLinda Egan, Minister of Music

MUSIC AND MEANING IN THE LITURGY All music has meaning. Although our under-standing of the composer’s intention is often commu-nicated to us by the words which we sing with thecomposer’s music, most musicians believe that mean-ing or content in music is communicated through themusic directly to the listener.

at content is really not nearly as well expressedin words alone, because words cover only a small partof what can be communicated. Even within conver-sation, seeing the gestures and posture of the person

who is speaking tells us so much more about what ismeant, and hearing the inections and emphasis ofthat person’s speech also tells us more than the mere words themselves. Saying that the content of music is content whichcannot be expressed in words does not mean that mu-sical content is not specic. It is more specic thanspeech. Hearing what music has to say to us, noticing what it evokes in us, responding to the music playedfor us, performing music ourselves, all help to open usto hearing and noticing and responding to God’s lovefor us. Our openness to hearing God through music isone more way we can know God and his care for us.

Music communicates emotion: a large part of life which is often given short shrift, emotion is often themotivating factor in the actions we take. It is a part ofeach of us that needs mindful attention, and can leadus to a deeper and more profound living-out of life’spurpose. It can lead us to worship and praise and ado-ration and thanksgiving for the God who gave himselffor our salvation, and who revealed his nature to us: he

is love. Music is also about structure, beauty, texture, har-mony, gesture, rhythm, all parts of life. In the liturgy, music has a functional as well as acontent based role. e function of the prelude, forinstance, is to focus us on the service to come. Oftenthe music is chosen with specic reference to the les-sons for the day, the liturgical season, or the upcominghymns. Will the service be a joyous celebration of afestival? e prelude music will start the celebration! Will it be a reective service during Lent? e prelude

music will prepare us for looking inward. Will therebe an unfamiliar hymn in the service? e prelude wilbe based on it. So, the prelude is a precursor of what is to comea time to prepare for the service, a time for prayer and

reection, a time which takes us from our everydaylives and welcomes us into the realm of the holy. Wecan listen to what the music may be saying, pray, andprepare our hearts for worship. As both children and adults prepare music at Po-hick, the practice of music as an art is turned towardthe service of the worship of God and the inspirationand encouragement of his people. We take this callingseriously and nd it a privilege to live it out week by week, and we are grateful for the benets that comefrom this rehearsal, study and reection as well.

S TEWARDSHIP CORNER S TEWARDSHIP AND THE EUCHARIST e Episcopal Church has put the concepts

of stewardship at the heart of the weekly celebra-tion of the Eucharist. As the celebration of HolyCommunion begins, parishioners bring forth theiroering of bread and wine - symbolically breadbaked in their ovens and made with wheat fromtheir elds and wine from the fruit of their vine- yards. ese oerings represent the giving back ofa portion of the bounty from God. e wine, forexample, represents a portion of the time spentplanting and tending the vines, a portion of the

talent involved in pressing the grapes and turningthem to wine, and a portion of the treasure thecompleted wine represents in commerce. At thatpoint they are ordinary gifts of stewardship. Andthen, a miraculous thing happens. rough theEucharist, God transforms these gifts of men intothe living body of Christ. is is the very heart ofstewardship - the presentation of earthly time, tal-ent, and treasure to God and His transformationof those things into the living, breathing body of

Christ - His church. e weekly Stewardship Perspectives endeav-ors to show just how that transformation happenshere at Pohick - how the presentation of time,talent, and treasure to God becomes the living,breathing body of Christ as it exists in this parish.Over the coming weeks, suggestions will be made,often by implication, how to further strengthenthat body of Christ through increased commit-ment.

NEW W AY TO DONATE ONLINEmyEoering is now available on the Pohick

Church website, www.pohick.org. Pohick haspartnered with myEoering in order to providemembers with the convenience of online contri-bution. Online contribution refers to a processmuch like online bill pay, whereby donors opt tohave their nancial contributions to the church withdrawn directly from their credit, debit, check-

ing, or savings account in lieu of bringing cash orpaper checks each Sunday.myEoering has designed a secure, web-

based platform where donors may privately andprayerfully make one-time or recurring dona-tions. Prayerful consideration of giving to Godrst enables members to witness a powerful senseof stewardship. Members can customize a com-pletely individual method of giving, based onhow and when income is received, whether it isbi-weekly, monthly, or semi-monthly. By setting

up recurring donations to be automatically deb-ited from an account, it allows the church to bet-ter plan budgets and expenditures and providesa more accurate nancial forecast. It also enablesmembers to stay on the path of contribution goalsby ensuring that even if the member is unable toattend church on a particular Sunday, the contri-bution will still be made. With more consistentstewardship, Pohick Church is able to focus moreon the ministry of God.

Coffee House NewsParishioners are cordially invited to the

Pohick Church EYC Coffeehouse on Sun-day, April 10 from 6:00 pm - 8:00pm.

sion Trip. Questions? Contact Rusty Boothat 703-339-6572 or [email protected]. W HO A RE W E?

I learned to snow ski in Garmich and Berchtesgadenand waved to President Kennedy when he visited Germa-ny. I shook hands with Walt Disney and ate dinner with anEmmy Award winning Director of e Simpsons. I havean ancestor who was an infamous pirate but also discov-ered six relatives that fought in the Revolutionary War. My7th great grandfather signed the Declaration of Indepen-dence. I was three hours late on my rst date with a younglady, yet she still married me. Our “rst date” theatre andrestaurant are long gone, as well as our rst apartment andhigh school. My wife is half Italian and we were militarybrats - she Navy and me Army - not fun during the Army-

Navy games of late. She worked under Admiral Rickoverand saw the poor Nuclear Submariner wannabe Ensignsawaiting their fateful interview with the Admiral.

Te couple featured in March were Chris Brown and Caro-lyn Cockroft. Chris grew up in LaPlata, MD, attending Arch-bishop Neale Catholic School. He had a 34 year career with the

feds but did not complete his BA until age 40. His ancestors includethe Royal House of Plantagenet, subject of several Shakespearean

plays and provider of 14 English kings including Henry II (appointed omas Becket as Archbishop of Canterbury, then mar -tyred him), Richard Lionheart (crusader), John I (reluctant signerof Magna Carta), and Richard III (murderer of infant princes).Carolyn grew up in Memphis, N, and attended St Mary’s School

for Girls and Rhodes College. In Little Rock, AR, 1976-86, shetaught English and Lit at Holy Souls Catholic School. She metGov. Bill and Hillary Clinton several times and attended a partyin the Mansion. She moved to NoVA in 1987 working for the

International Assoc. of Chiefs of Police for 28 years, developingtraining curricula on the use of deadly force (which she knewnothing but learned from her former LAPD SWAT sergeantwho rescued Patty Hearst) and detecting drug impairment. Herancestor includes Sally Cary, wife of George Fairfax. Chris andCarolyn met in 1987 and married two years later. ey have beenmembers since 1991.
