[ecm] ECM - Easter edition

Thu Apr 12 14:57:13 EDT 2007

Easter greetings!

            Warm, cold, sun, snow - it must be Colorado.  I hope you're
enjoying the full range of conditions so far this month.  And I pray your
Holy Week and Easter observances were fulfilling and refreshing!

*      Remember, Sunday at 5 pm, "The Simpsons:  Bart Gets an F" AND a great
home cooked meal.  As always, no charge.  Bring friends, laugh, go deep as
the mood strikes, and relax.  I'd love to see you!  Every Sunday through May
2.

*      Every Wednesday at 7 pm, Holy Eucharist led by you.  Check the web
site in the signature or our Facebook page
http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=2230590958 to see some of the past
homilies.  The music is getting tight - we picked up a new and quite good
guitarist named Amelia last night.  She's in tenth grade, which makes her
playing even more intriguing.  She'll be playing her own composition next
Wednesday - I hope you'll be here.

*      Don't forget the U2charist on campus next Tuesday, 4/17, at 7 pm in
LSC.  Sponsored by ONE.org, all proceeds will go the Bread 4 the World.
I'll be preaching.  I'm expecting it to rock - the music will be live, not
recorded (cover band, of course - U2 is otherwise booked.)

*      Position open:  With the graduation of our Student Assistant Sarah
Beetch I'll begin interviewing soon for someone to begin in August.  The
ideal candidate will be an undergraduate at CSU, and will have a vital
Christian faith and familiarity with the Episcopal way of doing things.
Duties include providing leadership in worship, programs and activities;
making on-campus arrangements for activities; maintaining email and FaceBook
communications; and overseeing publicity and advertising.  In exchange for a
flexible 4 hours/week the compensation is $128/month.  Please be in touch
with me at your earliest convenience if you are interested.

And here are some opportunities and news I hope you can use.

Do you want to spend their summer in scenic Jackson Hole with like-minded
peers? The Presbyterian Church of Jackson Hole, Wyoming is looking for
college students for our children and youth summer programs we call "Promise
University".  Though we realize that many students may already have
finalized their summer plans, we didn't want to wait another summer to begin
our exciting adventure with a college age ministry opportunity here in one
of the most popular vacation spots in the country.

We would be willing to come to any colleges within 9-10 hours driving
distance of Jackson to do interviews. If a face-to-face interview is not
possible, we would utilize the 'ole telephone system.  We'll begin hiring
immediately, so please fax, email, or mail their application ASAP. For more
information, call Sherry at 307-739-9591.

Are you interested in Eco-Justice?   Please suggest the opportunity below.
Applications are due on April 16th.  Sorry for the short notice, I just
found out about it this afternoon.  

 This summer, the National Council of Churches' Eco-Justice Program will be
having its 2nd Young Adult Eco-Justice Fellowship retreat.  The purpose of
the fellowship is to transform the faith-based eco-justice movement by
training and supporting emerging practitioners engaged in faith-based
environmental work.  

The all-expense paid retreat will take place at Port Isobel, Virginia, an
education center located next door to Tangier Island, home to Tangier
Watermen's Stewardship for the Chesapeake (TaSC), an organization of
watermen that implements a Biblically based stewardship plan for the island.

To read more about the fellowship, and find out about the participants in
the last fellowship, please visit:

For instructions on applying, go here:
<http://www.nccecojustice.org/fellowshipapp.htm>
http://www.nccecojustice.org/fellowshipapp.htm

Participants will have the unique opportunity to gather in community and
foster their own leadership development. Skills training will include:

    * Communication techniques, community organizing

    * Spiritual reflections and worship resources

    * Education on environmental issues including environmental justice

    * Existing faith-based resources

In addition, participants will receive travel compensation to the July
retreat (traveling from points within the United States) as well as lodging
during the three-day event. Meeting expenses, including food and beverage,
will be covered for the summer retreat.
