In these monthly newsletters, we look towards all the life, ministry, service, and spiritual growth that soon awaits us at
St. George’s Church. Through the month of June, as we are wrapping up yet another full year of programming, I ask
that we all pause and give some thought to where we have been. You will see in the pages of this newsletter a chance
for all members to fill out a very brief survey of participation and experience in our congregational development and
vitality activities offered in 2015-2016. Please do fill out this survey. Your input will be invaluable for making plans
through 2016-2017, to make St. George’s into a spiritual home for all the congregation of today.
I also have a special request of you. In the John Brown Room, you may have seen a large poster fixed to the wall.
This Community Project is a Timeline of Significant Events in St. George’s History. Already included are many
events that have been published in histories, celebrations, news articles, and various media outlets. What is needed of
you is your own individual input. What is missing from the list? What are the high points and the low points of St.
George’s that you experienced or are aware of? What were the triumphs? What were the failures? What are you proud
and not- so-proud of? Where are the beginnings? Where are the endings? What are the “ages” at St. George’s? Golden
Ages? Turmoil Ages? Ages of Growth? Ages of Decline? As I am working on a study of our congregation throughout
the course of this year, your input will be crucial for an accurate picture of how St. George’s today tells its own story.
For your time spent on these reflections of the past, I thank you deeply and look forward to another year
walking forward on The Way with you again!
Yours in Christ,

THANKS TO ST. GEORGE’S CHOIR
S
t. George’s Choir will sing at the 10 a.m. Sunday
Eucharist through June 12. The group rehearses
every Thursday evening and again every Sunday at 9:15
a.m., to lead the service music and prepare a great variety of anthems that illuminate the liturgical season and
weekly lessons. It was a joy to welcome several new
members from inside and outside the parish, but sadly
we also lost several singers.

any Thanks to our St. George’s walkers: Barbara Laddick, Leslie Hoffman, Tia Bennett and Fr.
Wayne Schmidt who was one of two clergy carrying
the EpiscoBuild banner.
Our regular choir for the whole season has been
Ralph Arce, Mary Barber, Anthony Cinelli, Jonathan
Dobin, Alleyne Fraser, Carl Linich, Kyunghee Kim,
Kayla Pryce, Michelle Roach, Wayne Schmidt, and
Anika Sukhai. Jennifer Ponzoni sang until Christmas
and resigned due to illness; Maria Bedo has taken her
place. It was wonderful that Kennedy Barber-Fraser
returned to sing at Christmas time and after completing
her first year at Smith College. Trinity Barber Fraser
and Naomi Roach sang for part of the year. The following have sung as substitutes on occasional Sundays:
Suzanne Clune, Sara Heaton, Benedikt Kellner, Pam
Morrill, Peter Sipple.
Many people comment on how much the music
means to them. It would be great if all of them would
make even a token contribution to the Music Fund as a
sign of their appreciation. A few people contribute significantly, but evidence of wider support is needed.
Simply write “Music Fund” in the memo portion of
your check.

NEWS
T
he Food Bank of the Hudson Valley invited us to
their annual reception. It is there way of showing
appreciation to food pantries and soup kitchens for
helping people in need. The program started with a
speech by Mark Quandt who is the executive director
of the Regional Food Bank of NENY. This is where
most of the food we serve comes from. He gave statistics on how much food is given out in the 23 counties involved. He mentioned the grant applications
and said many who applied expressed the importance
of dignity when serving clients.
The Caplan Bensley Foundation which has
awarded us grant money for dogs asked that we display their banner. They also gave us a bust and picture of Jazzy who was the dog honored. Being an animal and especially dog lover I took this to heart. The
following is a quote from the Foundation.
“Providing free dog food to people may not
sound like much, but when you see the relief in the
eyes of people as they pick up the food then you realize the pain and worry of being in a situation where
you are struggling to provide your pet with food. We
want to take this weight off people’s shoulders, let
them know that they can come to Jazzy’s Place to get
dog food, and that they will not have to surrender
their dog to a shelter or let it go hungry for lack of
resources. I am really proud of what we are doing, we
are showing people someone truly cares about what
they are going through and understands the love they
have for their pets, and we are making sure those pets
stay safe by their owner’s side.”
give clients. We have expanded this by ordering salvage cat food also.
Our new freezer was delivered which will enable us to freeze more meats and vegetables. It will also
be used to freeze bread. As we usually do a weekly run
to the food bank for bread this will help cut down the
amount of times needed. In the past we had to limit the
amount ordered because of space. We couldn’t always
take advantage of salvage meat allotted us but now can.
The freezer will also help us cut down on the amount of
times we have to pay a company to pick up food for us
and thus save money.
Students from Horizon on the Hudson visited
our pantry with bags of food. Headed by Concetta
Cracolici these gifted children come three to four times
a year with donations from teachers and parents.
Get Fresh Orange County events for the year
will start this month. The Food Bank of the Hudson
Valley will drop off up to 12 pallets of healthy food
(including fresh produce and dairy) for pick up. This is
a free event open to Food Bank members. It will be the
third Wednesday of every month. It’s a good way to
receive free produce and dairy.
Wishing everyone a safe and good Memorial
Day.

warmed by the generosity of so many
of the businesses we approached in
regard to our Hudson River Valley
basket! On Wednesday, June 8, we
will again have a blessed time together; first, sharing in the Eucharistic meal in the chapel and then going
to The River Grill to lunch together
and enjoy the beauty of good food,
friendship, and the wondrous Hudson
River which inspires us all and which gave rise to
the basket. With the proceeds from the basket we
hope to accomplish something good for our church
and to reach outside the doors and walls of our dear
church and help with ongoing ministries in the community. So, if you would like to be a part of all that,
do we have the ticket for you!

Cemetery LIFE
A
blessed June to one and all from the cemetery
committee. Within the month of June is one of
Richard Simms' favorite holidays: "Fathers' Day
Eve". So, Rich, we wish you a very special Fathers" Day Eve and Fathers' Day with your son,
grandson and daughter-in-law in South Carolina. It was
great to see Rich recently as he was called north for
work. Not only did his company work draw him here,
but also Rich was drawn to work at St. George's Cemetery during his brief visit "home" at the work session
held on May 21st. The cemetery is one of Rich's old
haunts and a place he cares about deeply. So, thank
you, Rich, for your love for our cemetery and for your
help for readying it for Memorial Day and for your
new ideas to aid in our maintenance, restoration, and
preservation efforts.
looks beautiful, as is fitting and good.
Thank you to Bill Rose and crew, and his
teenage sons Ryan and Matthew, who, in advance of
Memorial Day, placed American flags (supplied by
David McTamaney) at the graves of veterans buried in
St. George's Cemetery. One of the tombstones at
which they put a flag was
that of Daniel Osborn,
who died at age 16 in
1864 in the Battle of the
Wilderness in the American Civil War. "Rest
eternal grant to Daniel, O
Lord; And let light perpetual shine upon
him. May Daniel's soul,
and the souls of all the
departed, through the
mercy of God, rest in
peace. Amen.”
We also pray for all our
fathers, those who
have died and all who are
living, and ask the heavenly Father that they may inherit the kingdom prepared for them in God's time. To
prepare the grounds of our cemetery for Fathers' Day,
there will be a work session on Saturday, June 1l, from
3:30 to 5 p.m. (rain date of June 18--same timeframe).
It is hoped that parishioners will come, with gloves
and loppers, just as good old dad would have done to
help out the cause.
The cemetery committee will meet on June
13 at 7:30 p.m. in the John Brown room. Interesting
news will be revealed and plans will be made accordingly. You are welcome to attend to hear the news
there and then.
On another front, news that I can not keep
from you any longer is that the special cemetery collection on May 22, brought in $1326.00 from the parish for the cemetery. The committee is grateful
for your generosity and support for St. George's Cemetery. Thank you !!!
We wish all the dads a happy Fathers' Day and a happy Fathers' Day Eve, as well and a happy beginning of
summer to all.
Catherine Costello,
Cemetery Committee Chair
Thanks to the Rev. Wayne Schmidt who
mulched the flower bed which decorates the entrance

for the labor and for purchasing the mulch. The area

Warden’s
Word:
When I was six years old, my uncle died suddenly. He was 31. He was not only my favorite uncle, he was really the only person in my extended
family with whom I had a close relationship.
I wouldn’t know until years later that he died
by suicide, and even then I would find out indirectly,
by putting together clues. All I knew when it happened was that he was gone, and that my mother was
very sad. For years after my uncle’s death no one
could say his name without her breaking into tears and
saying “Oh, my dear brother — my dear, dear brother!”
My mother’s grief was obvious, palpable, and
perfectly understandable. She lost her little brother,
her only brother, her sweet, funny, intelligent, handsome young brother. My grief never got named. After all, I was only a little kid. What could I have even
understood about death, about my uncle, about what
his loss meant?
For the next year or two, my mother and I lit a
candle for Uncle Greg every time we were in church.
We sometimes went into a church just for that purpose. Years after that as a young adult, I continued
the practice whenever I was traveling — I lit candles
in churches for my uncle in many cities around the US
and a few in Europe. Sometimes I would mentally
calculate how old he would have been by that time,
and I would think about what I would like to tell him
to update him about my life. I was carrying him with
me, but I was still not sure what to make of the whole
thing. Did I even really remember him? Why was I
lighting candles anyway?
I had not forgotten him, but I was minimizing
my own part in the story. I was just six. I was just his
niece. It was just so long ago. He could not have
been that special to me, and I could not have been that
special to him.
Many of us build up these hard shells to cover
ourselves over, to minimize our hurts, to stifle our
tears. My uncle’s death is maybe one of the earliest
events that started me working on my own personal
layers of protection.
Some of that shell started breaking off last
year, during Lent and Easter, around the anniversary
of my uncle’s death. I started waking early in the
morning with memories of him, my chest aching with
waves of grief. I began tearing up at odd times and
for no clear reason. I was waking up, not just to the
fact of my uncle’s loss but to the physical feeling of that
loss.
I called my mother and asked her to send me photos of my uncle and me. I put his name on the Memorial
Day prayer list. I talked with Alleyne and a close friend
about what was happening. And now I am telling you.
Can we really heal from what is hurting us without sharing our pain, our wounds, with others?
As I am writing this, I am recovering from surgery to remove an ovarian cyst. Uncharacteristically for
me, I didn’t keep news of my surgery from my co-workers
and friends. I let my name be put on the church prayer
list. I allowed other people to do things for me — to drive
me around, to cook for me. I tried to resist urges to say,
“No, I don’t need anything,” “It’s really nothing,” or to otherwise push people away when they asked how I was doing or offered support.
And it has been such a gift, this time of slowing
down, of letting myself feel cared for and a little special.
It has definitely helped my healing to not have tried to
soldier on, pretending to myself and others that it was really not that serious. It has given me an opportunity to get
closer to people I care about, by letting them know what I
was feeling and allowing them to be present with me.
Why did my feelings of grief over my uncle’s
death come crashing around me a year ago? Was it part of
the spiritual growth I’m experiencing? Was it because I
knew Kennedy would soon go away to college? Was I
just having a midlife crisis? I really don’t know. And although after going through that period last year l feel lighter and more resolved about my uncle, I can’t say that I am
“over” his death, or that feelings of mourning and loss
about him will never come back again.
But one thing I can say is that as painful as the
experience was — physically painful, even — it was a
really good thing. That crusty shell of denial, that cast
that I had covered myself with, opened up just enough for
me to be able to face new losses in a different way.
In this past year, Kennedy left home and went off
to college. I totaled my beloved prayer-mobile. And now
I have lost a part of my body. None of these events is that
unusual or particularly devastating in the big scheme of
things. But they are not nothing. Each loss whether big
or not-so-big deserves a little reflection, a little mourning,
a little healing time.
And a little sharing with others and accepting support. So I thank you, my church friends, for letting me tell
you what is going on, and for your calls, visits, emails,
and prayers. With God’s help I am growing closer to you,
and with your help I am growing closer to God.
Mary Barber,
Warden

Warden’s
Word:
church is so high functioning. Our church has embraced the spirit of cooperation and unselfishness
that other larger churches seem to have forgotten.
It was a wonderful day and I was pleased to
be a part of it.
Sue Preece,
Warden
I
had the honor of representing St. Georges church at
the annual Wardens Conference on May 7th at Christ
Church in Bronxville NY. After a warm welcome by
Bishop Dietsche, Bishop Mary Glasspool was introduced
and gave the keynote address. She spoke of transformation, the transforming of people transforming the
world. As an example she spoke of Brenda Frese, a women’s college basketball coach who transformed a losing
team to champions in six short years. She was criticized
for having too many freshman players in her starting
lineup. Her response was “age is just a number”. When
they were behind she would call a time out to calm the
players and remind them “ we only have to win the next
four minutes”. Whenever the opportunity arose she
would remind them “overtime is our time”. This last part
really spoke to me as I often feel like I am in the
“overtime “ of my life. I was fortunate enough to retire
early and hope to have a very long overtime.
She then went on to remind us of the many gifts
the Episcopal Church has to offer the world. Most importantly the life, ministry, death and resurrection of
Christ. The use of the Via Media, the Middle Road. She
gave the example of “high” church and “low” church. She
spoke of our beautiful Liturgy and our Celtic heritage and
roots. And of our responsibility as Christians to embrace
diversity and to be inclusive.
After regaling us with many stories, some with a
touch of humor, the Bishop gave us all a gift. An
“Inukshuk”. Inukshuks are statues made of large stacked
stones that served as markers in the Canadian Arctic.
They were built by the Inuit People and used for directions or to mark food sources and camps. They were built
in the spirit of cooperation, unselfishness and balance, all
lessons we can continue to learn from today.
After a wonderful Liturgy and lunch we began
the afternoon with an update on strategic planning. There
was talk of incentives for paying Diocesan Assessments
on time (Kudos to St. George, we are up to date) and also
of realistic penalties for those that don’t. There were also
talks of putting together guidelines to help at risk congregations. We were asked to break into small groups and
discuss these matters and asked for our feedback. Here
comes the diversity part. Here I was, a retired prison
guard, talking to a Dr. from South Sudan who works for
the United Nations, and we were all there for the same
purpose. Our small group contained 2 doctors, 1 CFO
from a corporation, a home health aide and the retired
prison guard. I felt so blessed to know that our St Georges

A
I
would like to take this
opportunity to give my
thanks and admiration for
Deacon Vonnie. The 4th
Sunday of Easter is known
as Good Shepherd's Sunday
or in some denominations
“Vocational Sunday.” On April 17,of this
year (Good Shepherds
Sunday) we heard Fr.
Dustin speak to the many
ways we as followers of
Our Lord Jesus Christ, Ordained or Lay ministers can make
a difference in the lives of others. Deacon Vonnie did precisely this for me.
In early June of last year, I was looking for another
parish for worship and hopefully become a member of that
community. While attending a farewell service and luncheon for the Vicar of St Luke' Episcopal Church in Beacon,
I noticed Deacon Vonnie speaking with a few people during
the luncheon and being my usual self, I decided to introduce
myself. I thought she was the new Deacon of St.
Luke's. Deacon Vonnie and I hit if off immediately and
that's when I learned she was the Deacon of Saint
Georges. Or as I like to now call her, my Spiritual Sheppard.
Following a heartfelt conversation about my dilemma in finding another parish where I felt comfortable, she
handed me her card and said: " You might want to check
Saint George’s out". She further stated that Fr. Dustin was
on vacation and would not be back for two Sundays from
that date. I decided to attend Worship services the following Sunday and immediately fell in love not only with Fr.
Wayne (Rector Emeritus) and his wife Ann but also the
people of Saint George's. Everyone was very friendly,
warm and welcoming during in the exchange of Peace and
coffee hour, that I decided to attend Services the following
week and hear Fr. Dustin preach. That Sunday, I attended
Services and I immediately knew that I had found my new
spiritual home.
In closing, I would like to express my deepest gratitude to the Three Shepherds (think about that for a moment ), of Saint George's Episcopal Church. I have found
my New Parish.
Amen,
Ralph J. Arce
little over a year ago, the Diocese invited St.
George’s to serve as one of the pilot parishes for
a new spiritual growth initiative called Renewal
Works. Both Fr. Dustin and the Vestry gave their support to the idea, and a team of ten served on the Renewal Works Team and to attend several Diocesan
workshops to learn more about the program. Fortyfour parishioners participated in the initial Parish Survey which guided the Team as it met last spring to
design a plan for St. George’s. If you’ve noticed more
references to the Bible in our life together, if you’ve
attended a workshop on Spiritual Gifts, if you’ve to
taken a deeper look at The Book of Common Prayer or
if you taken part in the parish-wide reading of The
Story, then you’ve taken part in some aspect of Renewal Works.
It is now time for us to reflect on how things
went in our first Renewal W orks year and to put together a plan for the coming year. In order to create
opportunities that are as meaningful and effective as
possible, we have designed a one-page, (two-sided)
"June Survey" which we earnestly hope all our fellow
parishioners will fill out. The survey can be quickly
completed with check marks, although there is also
space for comments - which we will welcome whether
or not you were able to participate in any of the first
year Renewal W orks programs.
The first side of the survey seeks feedback on
Year One, and the second side seeks your feedback on
possibilities for Year Two. Please check only those
programs you personally would like to participate in.
Print copies will be available on the back table
in the Church and in the John Brown Room or you can
tear out the survey on next page of your newsletter. The link will also be available in the Friday Email blasts.
Please return your completed survey to the
marked box in the John Brown Room.
The results, which will be collated by Mary
Barber and Andrea Chester during the month of July,
will form the basis of a Renewal W orks Team planning meeting in August.
Help us help St. George’s to become the
spiritually-vital community of faith God
wants us to be!
With many thanks, from your Renewal Works Team:
Mary Barber, Andrea Chester, Catherine Costello,
Alleyne Fraser, Donna Gaul, Deacon Vonnie Hubbard, Glen Macken, Barbara Shelley, Margaret Sipple
and Fr. Dustin Trowbridge.
