MATTHEW 2:1315 (NRSV)13Now after they had left, an angel of the Lord
appeared to Joseph in a dream and said, Getup, take the child and his mother, and ee to
Egypt, and remain there until I tell you; or
Herod is about to search or the child, to destroy
him. 14 Then Joseph got up, took the child and
his mother by night, and went to Egypt, 15 and
remained there until the death o Herod. This
was to ulfll what had been spoken by the Lord
through the prophet, Out o Egypt I have called
my son.

2 Jesus and his disciples had also been invited to
the wedding. 3When the wine gave out, the
mother o Jesus said to him, They have no
wine. 4And Jesus said to her, Woman, what
concern is that to you and to me? My hour has
not yet come. 5 His mother said to the servants,
Do whatever he tells you. 6 Now standing
there were six stone water jars or the Jewish rites
o purifcation, each holding twenty or thirty
gallons. 7 Jesus said to them, Fill the jars withwater. And they flled them up to the brim. 8 He
said to them, Now draw some out, and take it
to the chie steward. So they took it. 9When the
steward tasted the water that had become wine,
and did not know where it came rom (though
the servants who had drawn the water knew), thesteward called the bridegroom 10 and said to him,
Everyone serves the good wine frst, and then
the inerior wine ater the guests have become
drunk. But you have kept the good wine until
now.

A FOLLOw-up ON BiShOp TuTuS DiS-iNViTATiON!ADVOCACy AND The ACADemy
by Alain Epp Weaver
University of St. Thomas stones Nobel
Peace Prophet Desmond Tutu:
Please Take Action! So began an
e-mail I received early this October
from Friends of Sabeel-North America, an advocacy
group working or justice and peace in Palestine-Is-
rael. The dramatic headline evoked biblical punish-
ment and the trope o the unwelcome, embattled
prophet. I soon received a similar email rom the
Muzzlewatch website, a project o the Jewish Voiceor Peace organization committed to creating
an open atmosphere or debate about US-Israeli
policy.
Anglican Archbishop Tutu had been invited
by a local afliate o PeaceJam International, a
group dedicated to bringing Nobel Laureates into
conversation with youth, to speak at its spring 2008
conference. Since 2003, PeaceJam has held its
conerences on the campus o the University o St.
Thomas, a Catholic university in the Twin Cities,
and anticipated that 2008 would be no different.
The university administration, however, decided
not to host Tutu.When the story became public in late September,
receiving extensive coverage in the Twin Cities
local newspapers, the university administration
explained its decision as an attempt to be sensitive
to the local Jewish community. The concerns were
that there are some Jewish people in the com-
munity who eel that the Archbishop has stepped
over the line with his criticism o Israel and Israeli
policies, Doug Hennes, university vice presi-
dent, stated in the campus newspaper, The Aquin,
although he insisted that We did not receive any
pressure rom anybody in the Jewish community
not to invite him.
At issue was a speech Tutu had given at an April
2002 Friends of Sabeel conference on Ending the
Occupation. [We published excerpts o Bishop
Tutus speech in The Guardianarticle here in your
bulletin on the second Sunday in November.]The Zionist Organization o America, among
others, objected to parallels drawn by Tutu between
the Israeli military occupation and apartheid-era
South Arica and claimed that Tutu had likened Is-
rael to the Nazi regime. Tutu published his speech
in the April 29, 2002 issue ofThe Guardianunder
the title, Apartheid in the Holy Land.
Decrying the occupations checkpoint and
roadblock regime in the Occupied Territories, Tutu
asked, Have our Jewish sisters and brothers or-
gotten their humiliation? Have they orgotten the
collective punishment, the home demolitions, in
their own history so soon? Have they turned theirbacks on their proound and noble religious tradi-
tions? Have they orgotten that God cares deeply
about the downtrodden?
This is a busy season. And its just gotten busier.
As it once was proclaimed by angels, Glory to God
in the highest and on earth peace. Let us be bold
this Christmas to proclaim and advance peace or all
o Gods people.

BiShOp TuTu, contd
[Bishop Tutu] proceeded to insist that, We live
in a moral universe. The apartheid government was
very powerul, but today it no longer exists. Hitler,
Mussolini, Stalin, Pinochet, Milosevic, and
Idi Amin were all powerul, but in the end theybit the dust. A strongly stated, perhaps even
provocative, way o making the point that all
oppressive systems will one day come to an end,
but also not a claim that the Israeli government was
equivalent to Hitler.
The decision not to invite Tutu created strong
opposition among aculty and students, and Jew-
ish Voice or Peace joined with other groups in a
campaign to urge St. Thomas not to stie ree and
rank consideration o Israeli government policies.
Even Abraham Foxman of the Anti-Defamation
League, while strongly disagreeing with Tutus
evaluation o Israeli policies, urged St. Thomas toreconsider its stance. By October 10 the university
had shited course.
I have wrestled with what is the right thing
to do in this situation, and I have concluded that
I made the wrong decision earlier this year not
to invite the archbishop, university president Fr.
Dennis Dease wrote in a message to the universitycommunity. Tutu and PeaceJam have been invited
to meet at the university next year, although the
event will most likely proceed at Metropolitan State
University, which agreed to host the conerence
ater St. Thomas turned down Tutu.
Ideally, the academy is a place where reasoned
disagreement is possible, and where one fnds
people passionately engaged in advocacy o dier-
ent types. How to think about the role o advocacy
in church and academy was the ocus o a recent
workshop at the University o Chicago Divinity
School, where scholars and clergy gathered to thinkabout the pitalls and promises o advocacy in their
particular contexts.
The Tutu incident at St. Thomas reects the
complications that can arise, as noted by speakers
at the workshop and discussed in breakout sessions,
when issues that generate heated disagreement are
brought into these settings. Learning to have such
debates in a reasoned spirit o patience and charity
is challenging, but what certainly will not acilitate
intense discussions in either the academy or the
church is simply closing down the debate. One
can thereore celebrate St. Thomas decision to
reverse course and invite Tutu as underscoring theimportance o carrying on with contentious, even
controversial, conversations.

DOnT BE FOOLED:The ReAL pROBLem iS NOT immigRATiON
pAsTOrs pAge
Written by Edith Rasell, Minister for Workplace Justice
Many Americans have a love-hate
relationship with immigrant work-
ers. We sometimes hate immigrants
who take our jobs. At the same
time, we love low prices, prices that may depend
on the very low wages paid immigrant workers.
But, when native-born workers are in conict with
immigrant workers, we all lose. A good society
can only be built on justice or allor immigrantworkers and or workers born in the U.S.
Chiapas is one o the poorest states in Mexico,
and the ormer home o many immigrants. A typical
coee armer in the highlands lives in a tiny house
with a dirt oor and a single dangling light bulb.
Everyone is well acquainted with poverty and hard-
ship. But as a tidal wave o economic destruction
has washed over the highland villages, people have
been orced to travel north to the U.S. seeking work.
Loved ones let behind ace the destruction o their
amily and community lie. When asked to identiy
their greatest problem, villagers name immigration.
Coee armers in Chiapas, and many other work-ers around the world, are losing their livelihoods
and ways o lie, due to biased international agree-
ments that avor corporations over workers. Skewed
economic policies are orcing people to leave their
homes to seek work and reuge rom a tsunami o
economic globalization.
Workers in the U.S. are also conronting this tidal
wave o economic change and destruction. Global-
ization has brought stagnant or alling wages, a shit
rom well-paid manuacturing jobs to lower paying
ones, fnancial insecurity, and competition by im-
migrants or jobs.
Immigration has become a hot-button issue. But,
the real problem is not immigrant workers. They are
oten victims o a system that serves neither native-
born nor oreign-born workers. A ew years ago,
the U.S. Department o Labor ound that none o
the poultry processing plants they examined paid
employees or all the time they worked. In meatpacking, more than one in every ten workers has a
signifcant injury each year. Both these industries
employ large numbers o immigrant workers. And,
immigrants rom Mexico are killed on their jobs in
the U.S. at a rate 75% higher than that of workers
who were born here.
The problem or American workers is not im-
migration, but weak and poorly enorced workplace
protections. Most frms do not exploit workers, im-
migrant or native-born. But, some do. I these com-
panies can pay less than is required by law, violate
saety standards, fre a worker or get him deported
i he tries to orm a union, and do so with minimalpenalties or none at all, then we will see more frms
exploiting workers. Wages will continue to all, ben-
efts will continue to disappear, union membership
will continue to decline, and American workers will
become more fnancially insecure. The rich will get
richer, and the poor, poorer.
The answer is not hostility to immigrants. Instead,
we must demand that politicians strengthen and

enorce workplace protections or all o us. And,
politicians must revise biased international agree-
ments that beneft multinational corporations and
harm workers here in the U.S. and around the
world.

churches throughout the United States. Rooted

Not only are we guilty of that, O Lord; but

How do you combine a season o joyul expectation with one o penitence? Advent
includes both. The word, Advent, means coming or arrival. It marks the beginning
o a new year with potential or a brighter, more hopeul uture. To fnd this joy, however,
we need to realize the true nature o the world the lie into which Jesus comes. Perhaps, Isaiah
expressed the combination best, with the words, People who walked in darkness have seen a great light;
those who dwelt in a land of deep darkness, on them has light shined. (Isaiah 9:2)
Penitence sounds rather orbidding, a time o sorrowul reection. Yet, it can be the darkness
that makes dawn more inspiring. Perhaps, the best part o penitence is its realism. I we are willing to
ace who and what we are, warts and all, then we no longer need to hide in pretense or outward
show. We can see and admit both our weaknesses and strengths. All o us have allen short at times,
both in what we do and who we are. Within our being, there is a measure of brokenness. No one
is perect, but we can be made whole again. God heals us, not with the kind o healing that leaves a
scar, but with ull renewal.
Becoming aware o this can make us savor the experience o this season. We tell the doctor what is
wrong and are given a cure. The broken parts o lie come together to make a whole. We are set ree
rom a burden and can walk with a lighter step.
This is a good time to savor the charity that the season provides. It can be kind o an aha! expe-rience. Our lie comes into ocus. It is like the moment when the Prodigal Son realized that he would
be better o at home than where he was, even i he returned only as a servant. He was humbled, but
later was celebrated and restored. Lie, our lie and the lives o others near us, can once again have
beauty and wholeness, despite the brokenness around us. We can be healed and made whole. What a
git to receive and to give to others!

TO dO JUsTiCe
World AIDS Day began in 1988 in
response to the global pandemic o
HIV/AIDS which was and still spreads,
in the words of Pastor Wright, through: (1) blood;
(2) semen; and (3) ignorance. World AIDS Day,
observed each year on December 1, is not only
about raising money to fnd a cure, but also about
raising awareness, advocacy, fghting prejudice, and
improving education around HIV/AIDS. Below,
you will fnd an excerpt rom the Global Steering
Committee o the World AIDS Campaign.
Though these statistics produced by Bread or The
World are startling, we can do something about this
crisis. The United Nations Development Programestimates that the basic health and nutrition needs
o the worlds poorest people could be met or an
additional $13 billion a year. Animal lovers in the
United States and Europe spend more than that on
pet ood each year. More importantly, unds and
fnances that are continuously being spent to take
lives and oil in Iraq could be spent to preserve lie innot only this country but around the world.
As the latest report indicates, over 5,700
people died each day rom AIDS-related illnesses
in 2007. Over 6,800 people are still being
infected with HIV daily, about 1,200 of whom
are children under 15; 2,900 are women 15 years
and older. The inection rates in young peopleages 15-24 remain frighteningly high. We know
these inections and these deaths are preventable
and avoidable i promises by countries to scale up
access to prevention, treatment, care and support
for all are to be fullled by 2010. The reduced
fgures or the HIV epidemic and stabilization in
some areas o rates o inection in act make suchuniversal access by 2010 more achievable.
Yet, statistics go only so ar in showing the
extent o an epidemic, and this is particularly true
with HIV. Resources or inormation services,
health care, medicines, and support services still
all ar short o need. Stigma and discrimination
are rampant, and gender inequality, violence,
and poverty deny people access to accurate
inormation, prevention, testing, counseling and
treatment. While these conditions still exist, HIVwill continue to spread.
At its essence, the epidemic is about people,
not numbers. Rates o inection and deaths
even in their millions do not begin to reveal
the true toll o AIDS on amilies and riends, on
communities, on people already at the margins
o society, on youth and women in particular. Yesterday, we celebrated the lie o Anthony
Hollins, who, among other things, stood boldly or
justice and compassion with and or those aected
and infected by HIV/AIDS. Anthonys voice was
a trumpet around the nation calling or increased
awareness, testing and justice with regard to those
infected and affected by HIV/AIDS. In Anthonysmemory, I urge you to do three things:
Get tested, so that you know your status;1.
Empower yoursel with awareness and education2.
about HIV/AIDS So that you will be able to
dispel the myths that abound. Our HIV/AIDS
ministry is more than willing to empower you
with inormation;
Be an advocate or those inected and aected3.
with this disease.

The ReSuLTS OF A ReDeemeD LiFeDO SOmeThiNg NiCe
One o the best ways to guarantee a great day is to ocus your atten-
tion on someone else. Several years ago, the spirit o Random acts o
kindness captured the imagination o the country. What a simple, yet
powerul concept the idea o doing something nice or someone else,with no expectations o anything in return.
One morning, I had the radio on, listening or a weather orecast, the
temperature and the trafc report. As I listened, a caller telephoned in
on his cell phone to report something he had just witnessed. Several
people were standing at a bus stop in a torrential downpour. Since the
storm hadnt been predicted, they had no protection rom the rain andwere getting soaked. One woman was holding her purse over her head,
as i it would protect her. The caller reported that he had watched as a
car pulled up beside the people on the curb as the driver jumped out
o his car, handed them an umbrella, and quickly got back into the car,
moved into the ow o trafc, and was gone. The caller was touched
by what he had seen and wanted to share the story o that simple, yetbenevolent gesture with those o us who were listening.
What a beautiul example o doing something or someone else.
I recently read, Share an umbrella with someone, and your heart
will be flled with sunshine. The giver o the umbrella that morning
surely had a heart flled with not only sunshine, but also with love and
compassion or his ellow man. Today and everyday, be ready to shareumbrellas with those who need them.
