But when the king came in to see the guests, he noticed a man there who was not wearing a wedding robe, and he said to him, “Friend, how did you get in here without a wedding robe?” And he was speechless. Then the king said to the attendants, “Bind him hand and foot, and throw him into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnash-ing of teeth.” For many are called, but few are chosen. (Mtt. 22.11-14)

The famous parable of the wedding banquet (which we will hear on the second Sunday of this month) is rich with imagery, including the contrast between the outer darkness and the brightly lit hall wherein the guests celebrate the feast. (Jesus is not being subtle.) Perhaps the greatest contrast is the one we must grasp in the speech-less reaction of the guest who lacks a wedding robe. He has nothing to say because in response to the free gift of his being included in the feast he has not responded. He’s just the same guy who was found on the street.

At first glance Jesus’ parable could be read to imply that we all need to do something to earn salvation—that the wedding guest is condemned because he has not merited his place at the feast. But notice that the king, in ask-ing “... how did you get in here ...?”, is the one who issued the invitation as a free gift to all who his servants found. The invited guest has not failed in anything he could have done to merit

invitation but in how he has responded once invited. And it is the same with us. God offers salvation to each of us (the “many”), but we must respond to His offer. We must allow ourselves to be transformed in who we are (to be clothed in a “wedding robe”).

What I do involves the act of my will. I am the actor. The “voice” of the verb is active. What is done to me involves the will of another. I am the object, and the verb is (to me) passive in voice. But there is also the situation in which the will of another is involved and my will must coöperate with this will. This “middle voice” (which is explicit in some verbs in the original of the New Testament) embodies how my will is incorporated into the will of another actor. Why this discussion of gram-mar? It is because when we recognize that the Holy Name of God revealed at Exod. 3.14, I AM, is a verb, we can bet-ter realize that our Christian vocation is to live within—to embody and literally incarnate—the middle voice of this verb. When we surrender our will so that God’s will becomes ours, we live in this middle voice.

Our patron, the Ever-Blessèd Vir-gin Mary, is the supreme example of a will that is subsumed in the will of God. Her words to the angel are “Be-hold, I am the handmaid of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word” (Lk. 1.38). In other words, Mary’s vital “yes” to God is to make His will her’s.

As we gather this month in pilgrimage to the shrine of Our Lady of Walsing-ham, may we be at all times those who surrender to God’s will. When my will is taken over by God because I have surrendered my will to Him, then I am transformed. I am clothed in a wedding robe. I participate in my own transfor-mation. As an invited guest I take my place at the feast. As one “marked as Christ’s own for ever” in my baptism (BCP 308) I have put on the garment of salvation, but I must allow transfor-mation in who I am to happen. I must allow the Spirit to work in me by sur-rendering my will to God.

In the apostle Paul’s writings to a young Church he emphasizes union with Christ, declaring “the riches of the glory ... which is Christ in you” (Col. 1.27), and “[I]f anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has passed away, behold, the new has come” (2 Cor. 5.17). To this we may add the voice of John the Evangelist, who writes, “See what love the Father has given us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are. ... In this the love of God was made mani-fest among us: that God sent his only Son into the world, so that we might live through him. ... God is love, and he who abides in love abodes in God, and God abides in him” (1 John 3.1a; 4.9-10, 16). From Paul we hear Jesus say, “Will you follow me?” From John we hear Jesus say, “Do you love me?”

When we follow we are transformed. When we give our wills to God, we are transformed by Him—clothed. When we are transformed our response to God’s love is our love of Him.

The long and the short of this is that each of us as an individual and all of us as the Church must live in the “middle voice” of the great verb, I AM, who is God. We must give our will to God that He may act in us and through us. All ministry is God’s will in action, God’s will directing the will of individuals and all of the company of saints which is His Church. In reaching out we reach out for by and through God. In ministering we minister for by and through God. In fact, in all we do in faith we act by and through God’s will, which means that when we discern His will and do it there is none that can stand against us. Mary’s “yes” to God was the necessary act of human will—surrender to God’s will—by which God’s pur-pose has been accomplished. May our will ever be “yes” to His call and direction.

Yours in Christ Jesus,

The Rev. Dr. Karl C. Schaffenburg Rector

Average Sunday to date is 120. This compares to a 2013 figure of 121.

• Expenses at the end of August had been managed to 88.7% of budget. This good result reflects in part that some quarterly bills were received in September. The over-all expense trend line has been to keep expenses to about 97% of budget.

ATTENDANCE AND FINANCES:

Blessing of Animals:

ON SATURDAY, 4 OCTOBER (The Feast of St. Francis of Assisi) we will offer a blessing of animals following the 9 a.m. Mass. We will be joined by guests from Hope Reformed Church and by middle school-aged guests from around the diocese, who will gather with us as part of the New Beginnings youth ministry weekend.

We will gather in the church nave for the blessings. If the animal you bring would be uncomfortable inside the church nave, we will come outside (at the Ontario Avenue entrance to the nave). If you come for the blessing only, and not also for the Mass, we expect the blessings to begin about 9:30.

LoveINC: Love in the Name of Christ Sheboygan County is up and running! Office and training space has been leased in the Great Mar-riages building, 612 Center Avenue, Sheboygan. This means that classes for volunteers will begin very soon. If you want more information on how to work with LoveINC, what ministries are available and need help, please contact Fr. Karl.

Ministry of the Month

As of the 24 September Vestry report outreach provided in the prior month was to a total $307.70, being restricted to two medical cases and one case of transportation assistance. As the LoveINC referral system comes online, the number of referrals for medical needs will probably exceed the prior average of about $1,100/month. Our primary response in cases of unmet medical needs relates to help with prescription drug costs. You can con-tribute. Donations (separate from your pledge or plate gifts) can be marked “Medical Assistance”.

ADULT EDUCATION: (9 to 10 a.m. each Sunday): Our schedule for the Fall follows this schedule:

• First Sunday of each month features a time to gather in small groups (the “care and share” model) for discus-sion about life issues. These discussion will be facilitated by Deacon Mike and Deacon Michele.

• Second Sunday features discussions centered a series of short films in the BASIC series:

—Trends come and go in our culture and the Church some-times seems to follow. BASIC is a seven-part series of short films that challenges us to reclaim the Church as Scripture describes her to be. This series speaks to those who have ques-tions about the Church and to those who may have lost inter-est in the Church. Each Sunday we will watch one of the seven short films followed by a time of group discussion facilitated by Bobbi Kraft. The seven films are: Fear God, Follow Jesus, Holy Spirit, Fellowship, Teaching, Prayer, and Communion. Please join us. (This is also an ideal series to invite friends who have no church but who are open to explore faith.)

• Third and fourth Sundays (facilitated by Fr. Karl): A five part series on Heresies is offered. Heretical beliefs are both ancient and current, with none really being new. For exam-ple, it is common to hear Jesus described as a very holy man adopted or anointed by God, but “not God”. This is one of the ancient heresies (Arianism) about the person and nature of Christ. We’ll examine all of the classical heresies about who God is, what His will is for the Church, etc., to better understand our own faith.

— Heresies are simple. It is easier to understand them, and they are therefore attractive. For example, it is easier to think of Jesus as a special human being than as fully human and fully divine. The orthodox faith is complicated and mysterious, and as we examine the simplicities of her-esies we will explore the depths of the true faith.

— Heresies are common. As discussed by Ross Douthat of The New York Times in his award-winning 2013 book, Bad Religion: How we Became a Nation of Heretics, in an era of decline in churches Americans have not generally become atheists, but have turned to alternate and private faiths that often mirror classical heresies. In other words, her-esies are seductive, and we will explore how to best dis-tinguish between the mysteries of true faith and the easy “answers” of misplaced faith when we offered opportuni-ties to testify and correct.

• Our course in Biblical Hebrew meets on Thursday evenings from 7 to 9 p.m. in St. Nicholas Hall. Auditors are welcome.

• Every Thursday following the 9 a.m. Mass we meet for Bible study. This study focuses on the lessons for the coming Sunday.

• On the first and third Sundays of each month Fr. John Am-belang leads a small group Bible study, with sessions beginning at 1 p.m. The group has been working systematically through Galatians, and will begin study of another book of the Bible later in the Fall. New members are always welcome!

Winter is Coming!The last wedding for the year will be in late October so that means we will need to prepare the Grace and All Saints’ for the winter with some light cleaning inside and out. Please join us on the following dates to help:

Grace Church – October 18th 9 AM to Noon (back-up date is October 25th depending on weather)

All Saints’ Chapel – November 8th 9 AM to Noon (back-up date is November 15th)


THE KALENDAR by Fr. KarlThree apostles are celebrated in Octo-ber: James of Jerusalem (the brother of our Lord) on the 23rd, and Simon and Jude on the 28th. St. Luke the Evange-list is remembered on the 18th. St. Luke is both the patron of physicians and painters. He himself was a physician (Col. 4.14), and tradition holds that he painted the first icon, of the Virgin Mary.The month begins with feast of Remigius of Rheims. Remigius was the apostle to the Germanic Franks in the sixth century. The feast of St. Francis of Assisi is on 4 October, and we’ll celebrate a bless-ing of animals (Mass at 9 a.m., bless-ing at 9:30), in which we will be joined by members of Hope Reformed Church and our New Beginnings (middle school) participants from around the diocese. Francis reminds us of the fact that all of God’s Creation is to be honored. Oc-tober includes the commemoration of many martyrs. Ignatius of Antioch (d. 115) is commemorated on17 October. He is remembered for his letters writ-ten to churches as he journeyed to his execution in Rome. These letters are of such an authority that the early Church debated seriously whether they should be included in the Bible.October 15 and 16 provide an interesting contrast. On the 15th we remember

St. Teresa of Avila (d. 1582), the Span-ish mystic and founder of the Carmelite order. Teresa is considered a “Doctor of the Church” by Rome. On the 16th we remember the Anglican martyrs Hugh Latimer, Nicholas Ridley, and Thomas Cranmer, burned at the stake in 1555 and 1556. Cranmer was the compiler and author of the first Book of Common Prayer (1549), and the 1552 revision. Latimer’s last words (quoted originally in the Protestant apologetic work Fox’s Book of Martyrs) were made famous again in Ray Bradbury’s novel Fahren-heit 451, “Be of good cheer, Ridley; and play the man. We shall this day, by God’s grace, light up such a candle in England, as, I trust, shall never be put out.”The October calendar includes, of course, the feast of Our Lady of Wals-ingham. By calendar date this feast falls on 15 October, but we will transfer the feast to Saturday the 11th, as a part of our pilgrimage festival. The Blessed Vir-gin Mary appeared to Lady Richeldis de Faverches, a devout English noblewom-an in the village of Walsingham, in Nor-folk, England, in 1061. Lady Richeldis had built a Holy House in 1053, modeled upon the structure in which Our Lady received the annunciation of Jesus’ con-ception from the angel Gabriel. It was in this Holy House that Richeldis received

her vision, and the site became a focus for pilgrimage, with this cult increased due to the popular devotion that England herself was under the special protection of Mary, with the land being her dowry. The cult also was popularized by re-ports of healings from the water from the spring in the Holy House, and by royal patronage.The shrine at Walsingham was de-stroyed in 1538, during the suppression of the monasteries under Henry VIII. Re-vival of the site occurred first in 1897, by order of Pope Leo XIII, with the Anglican shrine being revived in 1921. Just ten years later, the North American shrine to Our Lady was established here, at Grace Church. The details of this establishment may be found on our parish website at http://www.gracesheboygan.com/index.php/walsingham/grace-shrine-history. See the separate article in this newslet-ter for details of the pilgrimage festival to be held on Friday and Saturday, 10and 11 October.The Feast of Our Lady of Walsingham falls, actually, on 24 September. We observe the 15 October date (as trans-ferred) because this is the feast of the translation of Our Lady’s image (i.e., the reëestablishment of her cult in 1897, 1921 and [here] in 1931).

STEWARDSHIP: We are 100% BEHIND GRACE. Now is the time to respond. For every new pledge made in the 2015 steward-ship campaign, and for every increase in an existing pledge, The Grace-Wals-ingham Foundation will provide a 2:1 match, up to $50,000.

• No gift is too small. For example, if you give $5/week, that will result in increased funding for ministry of

$780.00. ($5/wk from you, and an additional $10/wk from the founda-tion).

• Stewardship is not about balancing a budget, it is about ministry. If all we do is balance a budget, this will not be faithful. It will be symptomatic of self-focus only. Stewardship involves offering to fund what we are not doing now in outreach, in mission, in serving those who do not know

God. Mission is the reason for the Church. A church which is not in mission is in decline.

• On Sunday, 19 October, we will celebrate the conclusion of our campaign with an all-parish pot-luck luncheon, following one service of worship only that day. The service will be at 10:15 a.m., and will involve a said liturgy without incense, but with hymns and choir.


Will Carleton (1845-1912) was an Ameri-can poet famed for his portrayals of rural life. I could not resist a beautiful edition of his collection Farm Festivals from 1881 for sale at the Renaissance book shop at the Milwaukee airport. Among the rural occa-sions this book describes, along with such events as the Town Meeting, Thanksgiving Day, and Evening in a Country Store, is the “Singing School,” by then a very old insti-tution in the northeast United States, as the schools began during the Colonial period. The New England settlers believed in the importance of congregational singing in Christian worship, and the singing schools were founded to train each churchgoer to sing, beginning with the children. Similar old-fashioned schools survive now mainly in the Sacred Harp, Southern Gospel, and Primitive Baptist traditions, where music is still sung in the old “shape-note” style. Some of these early American tunes are in our hymnal, including “My shepherd will supply my need,” “All hail the power of Je-sus’ Name,” “Take up your cross,” “Awake, awake to love and work,” and “What won-drous love is this.” By the time Carleton wrote his poem, some more Protestant fa-vorites had appeared, which he refers to by tune-name in one stanza.

Several different memorable characters are described at length in this poem. The sing-ing teacher is a tall, lean, grim-looking man who resembles “a tuning fork turned on its end.” One of my favorites is a Mrs. Caro-line Dean:

What a method was yours, of appearing prepared

To make every tune in the hymnal look scared!

Your voice was voluminous, rather than rich,

And not predistinguished for accurate pitch;

But you seemed every word to o’erpoweringly feel,

And humbled and drove away skill with your zeal.

Then there was Nathaniel F. Jennings:…how sadly you tried,

With your eyes a third closed, and your mouth open wide,

To sport an acceptable voice, like the rest,

And cultivate powers you never possessed!

They were just out of music, it used to be said,

When they drafted the plan of your square, shaggy head.

You fired at each note, as it were, in the dark,

As an amateur rifleman would at a mark,

And short of opinion, till after the shot,

Of whether you’d happen to hit it or not.

Those last lines remind me of a soprano at a former parish who was having trouble hitting the notorious high B-flat in Paul Manz’s “E’en so, Lord Jesus, quickly come,” and politely asked the director “When we get there, is it all right if I just sing as high as I can?”

This reminds us that our collective efforts in volunteer choirs can reach heights that, individually, we could not hope for. The satisfaction comes from getting better and better, and we will not achieve perfection until we join the heavenly choir. We hope that our musical offerings will continue to inspire beyond our individual efforts. As for making the occasional loud and obvi-ous mistake, we must cultivate the virtue of gratitude for the opportunity of provid-ing the other members of the choir with so much entertainment.

SEEKING AND FINDINGThis month, I can’t help as I write this to recall our beautiful day at the lakefront for Mass in the Grass. I’d like to thank the clergy, stewardship committee, and a host of volunteers from the parish for doing their parts to make it such a fabulous time of worship together for our parish and visitors. The day has resulted in a number of positive reactions. It also helped feed the idea that we are “all in” as Grace. There is already talk of doing it again and talk to seek ways to do other similar events that will al-low us to go forth as Grace into the world.

There is also witness to that seek-ing spirit with those who are work-ing to create a renewed model for youth & family ministry. A follow-up meeting resulted in brainstorming a large number of diverse ideas. Many of these ideas involve going out into the community either with activities or with worship. Members of the group are currently prioritizing selections. In addition, four members from Grace went to the Diocesan Youth Pres-ence Event held at DePere, WI. The day was spent discussing and de-veloping action plans for individual parishes. The scope of the models involved ways to expand involvement beyond a single individual as “leader” and over the course of development progresses to youth led activities. One idea that came out of the day for our parish was the development of ideas/programming that would “age”/”graduate” with youth as they do. It would include also outreach from the parish for while they are in college and beyond to remind them

that they are still part of the Body. Currently in development is an “aco-lyte reunion” for college students one Sunday in January.

The Vestry Retreat was held at All Saints Chapel in Elkhart Lake on Saturday, Sept 13th. The day was led by the senior and junior wardens and included team building activities and videos which prompted great dis-cussions. We identified a number of areas of strengths as well as areas of “need”. Regarding church growth, though some may have thought the prime motivation was monetary, it was actually identified as “to share what we have (faith, hope, and com-munity) with others”. We also dis-cussed building upon our existing established relationships with the churches that share our “block”, our tripartite relationships, and the local jail in order to develop outreach via “stepping stones” where we build from solid, small successes instead of attempting to invent something new. It was a day spent seeking spiri-tual growth and filled with the Spirit. At a recent coffee hour, a parishio-ner was heard to say that when she heard about the vestry retreat she wished she could’ve been to our spir-itual retreat!

This has been an amazing month with opportunities for all of us spiri-tually. It has also identified that we need to seek more. There is a power-ful work at hand here at Grace. We must remain vigilant because, as Father reminded us after Faith Alive, whenever Satan sees the Kingdom being moved forward, he will do his best to throw obstacles in our way.

Remember, what we seek, we WILL find. Every good thing that has hap-pened this past month has come with blessings and growth. We have also seen attempts to distract and disrupt it. If we seek to build up the Kingdom, we WILL find ways to do so. If we seek to tear down the Kingdom, we will also find ways to do so.

In the coming month, we’ll have op-portunities with the Blessing of the Animals (Oct 4th), hosting New Be-ginnings (Oct 4-5th), Walsingham Pilgrimage (Oct 10-11th), Steward-ship Sunday (Oct 18th), and Dioce-san Convention (Oct 24-25th). All of these special spiritual opportunities in addition to our regular services, daily prayer opportunities, and educational opportunities. So many ways for us to share what we have with others who may be seeking.

On that beautiful day at the beginning of this month, we sang together:

Seek Ye first the kingdom of God, And His righteousness, And all these things, shall be added onto you, Alleu, alleuia

I am thankful that we are, together, seeking His kingdom. Together we will find.

In Him- Bobbi Kraft, Senior Warden
