THE STONE NEWS, PAG

As many of you know, I enjoydrinking coffee, especially having acup of steaming java with friends andmembers from Stone Church.

Now that I reflect on my coffee

vice and choice of venues, I think Ivesampled cups of coffee from the farcorners of the area from Great BearCoffee in Los Gatos to Philz in SanJos from Elvas on Lincoln Avenueto Peets on The Alameda from Bare-foot Coffee on Stevens Creek to Mon-sieur Beans (aka Willow Glen CoffeeRoasting).

Ive mentioned many times beforethat I find the whir and chatter of acoffee shop stimulating both to sermonwriting, as well as to giving my full atten-

tion to the conversation at hand.

Yesterday morning, when I met witha friend at one of these local wateringholes, we fell into a discussion aboutGod and the Presbyterian Church(USA). Over a cup of liquid coal fromBrazil, my friend shared with me akeen insight: Maybe the question isnot What is God calling us to do? butrather, What is God doing?

Her comment hit home.Because while we as pastors, church

leaders, and members often find our-selves fretting over what we should donext in the church, I think it behoovesus, periodically, to take a step back tosee what God is already doing.

I suppose its human nature to specu-late about whats around the corner orto forge ahead in a new direction. Yet,Ive come to realize if Im always look-ing ahead and always planning my nextmove, I may also be putting on blind-ers blinders that prevent me fromseeing what God is doing in the hereand now. Its all a matter of regaining

ones perspective.Years ago, I remember going on a35-mile hike with a friend throughOlympic National Park. I had neverhiked with this person before, so I wassurprised that he had a different way ofwalking through the woods.

While I wanted to keep headingup the trail at a steady clip, testingmy mettle, taking infrequent breaks,and getting as far as I could in a singleday, he wanted to stop and photo-graph wildflowers the nerve! My

impatience grew as my friend bent

low to the ground, camera in hantaking pictures of bluebells, sorrel, acolorful fungi.

You can guess the lesson here. Uto that point in my hiking career, never realized how often I had set msights on struggling up to a high moutain pass, when all along, the smest wildflower was proclaiming tglory of God!

I realize its hard not to look too ahead, but my invitation for us as flowers of Christ is to take a mome

a day, a week, or even a month tsummer to observe the many ways Ghas touched, and continues to touour lives.

Right now, at this very moment, ayourself:

What is God doing?

Consider the lilies of the field, how tgrow; they neither toil nor spin, yet I tell y

even Solomon in all his glory was not clot

like one of these. - Matthew 6:28-29

Ken Henry recently wrote this contemplativepiece, as he was dealing with a particularlypoignant moment in his ministry.

Searching for The Holy Moment

It comes when people of heart and mindgather for no other reasonthan God has called them together.

It comes when differences are acknowledged,disagreements respected, and no one feelsleft outside the circle.

The holy moment comes when silencefeels like a warm handshakeAnd loud voices hush and bow down.It cannot be contained by time or place.It comes when its ready.

I see it. Its here.Come over here, I whisper.Sit with us awhile,and lend us your comfort ...while we cry and laugh,And break bread.

At the regular meeting of the Sessionon May 18, Ken Henrys pastors reportnoted that some visitors to Worship atStone have listened to sermons on thechurchs website before venturing anon-site visit.

The website continues to be a majorcommunication tool for newcomers.Thanks to Caryl Westerberg for get-ting the sermons recorded, and to RodThorn for his work as webmaster.

The Session approved hiring SteveNelson and Judi Kaiser to prepare aManual of Operations for the physi-cal plant that is Stone Church. NewElders who serve on the Buildingsand Grounds Committee have longneeded this continuity of informationand record keeping.

The manual is planned as a descrip-tion of the myriad operating systemsin the church, including heating (forexample, there are six furnaces in themain building), outdoor watering (cur-rently there are four systems), lighting,

plumbing, and a number of others.In addition to preparing the manual,Session authorized hiring Caryl West-erberg to produce an online version.

The Session is currently reviewingboth its fund-raising policy and thenumber and type of fund-raisers heldeach year. The Treasurer is developing auniform reporting system for the costsand proceeds of events.

The StoneWorks Committee askedthat Session members read the Cov-enant of Dissent available online and,

in June, hold a discussion of the stment. The purpose will be to see ican be reaffirmed, as is, or if it neupdating.

Does My Family Need aWill or Living Trust?

Inspiring Zephyr Experience Still Open

Important Correction rom theBudget & Finance Committee:All church-issued checks not

cashed within six (6) months oissuance will be voided.

When our families are young and vibrant,we often find our time totally occupied withthe demands of raising our children. Schoolissues, social issues, financial concerns, andoccupational and home problems all occupymuch of our planning time. Too often, we

avoid the planning necessary to deal withproblems that might result from a parentno longer there to provide for the family.

One possible way of planning for suchcircumstances is the creation of a carefullydrafted will or revocable living trust by aqualified attorney. Such a document, along

with other related documents (such as adurable power of attorney, living will, etc.),can often provide an effective way to pro-

vide resources for your family when they areyoung, or later when they are mature.

These kinds of documents might also pro-vide a way to support particular programshere at Stone Church some years in thefuture, when your accumulated resourcesare greater than at present. It might be aneffective way to maintain programs andactivities that you feel are effective withyour own family. It is certainly somethingworth considering.

To discover how some of your friends atStone Church have gone through this impor-tant decision-making process, please cometo the Gift Planning Discussion on Sunday,

June 20, from 11:15 am to 12:15 pm, in theFireside Room (this has been rescheduledfrom an earlier date). - Gary Weiss
