We had a suprise party for Phil Nazro celebrating the 48th anniversary of his ordination on May 28th.
Phil’s first remark was that for the first time in his life he was speechless. Folks came from all over the
country to honor Phil. And, no this does not mean he will stop doing what he’s been doing at All Saints’.

Certainly the weather has been a dominant topic recently in our area
(and others parts of Texas and beyond). Our prayers are certainly still
ascending for all those who were tragically affected by the recent storms
that brought high winds, tornadoes, and flooding to central Texas, the
Houston area, and all environments along the storms’ pathways.
Recently, everywhere you go and on everyone’s FaceBook news feeds
people are talking about the weather. And, with what we’ve been
experiencing since Memorial Day weekend, it definitely makes sense
that weather is atop our conversation lists.
July 2 & 16 Thursdays
However, if you think about it, and if the truth be told, people are
always talking about the weather. In fact, the weather seems to always
be our “go-to” conversation topic even when we haven’t experienced
the wrath of storms. Whenever one doesn’t quite know what to talk
about, or if ever one needs to fill the awkward silence that comes up
between two people or in a group, we can always default, if you will,
to bringing up the weather. And, even if we are not stymied about
what to say, we still love to talk about the weather. It’s too hot, too
humid & muggy, too windy, too cloudy, too wet & slippery; it’s
beautiful, it’s miserable, it’s perfect, or it’s awful. Here in Austin, we

Nursery
(Infants to 3 yrs.)
The Nursery is located in Gregg House
While infants and toddlers are welcome in church, please know that we have a loving and safe Nursery in
Gregg House available from 8:30 a.m – 12:30 p.m. every Sunday.
Children’s Chapel
Children’s Chapel is offered at both the 9:00 and 11:30 a.m. worship services. All children who wish to attend
Children's Chapel are asked to come to the Church with their parents, family members, or friends and find a seat.
Children's Activity Sheets are available at the back entrance for children as they wait. When the church bell is
rung, 3 year olds through 2nd Graders join the cross procession as it makes its way down the center aisle. The
children together with the All Saints’ Chapel Ministers proceed out of the church to the Chapel of the Holy Spirit
which is located downstairs in the Gregg House. The children return to church during the passing of The Peace
and are reunited with their families and friends. For more information concerning the Nursery or Children’s
Chapel, please call 512-476-3589 the Rev. Cynthia Caruso (ext. 110), or the Rev. Mike Adams (ext. 104).
Children at Communion
The tradition of the Episcopal Church is to welcome all who are baptized to receive communion – no matter what
age! Parents should, of course, be responsible for determining how and when their child receives the bread and
the wine that is offered. Children may receive the bread in their hands, eat the wafer, and then sip the wine from
the chalice when it’s offered; or children may receive the bread in their hands and then dip the wafer (“intinction”)
into the wine (taking care not to dip their fingers in the wine); or children may receive “in one kind” taking only
the bread in their hands and then crossing their arms over their chest when the chalice passes indicating they
are not receiving the wine; or children may cross their arms in front of their chests to receive a blessing. We
invite all children to join us at the altar rail at communion time – even if not receiving the bread or wine. Children
will be discussing in their Sunday Morning programs the symbols and the meaning of the Eucharistic Meal. Mike,
Phil, or Cynthia are happy to answer any questions you may have regarding your child and communion.
Sunday School (Preschool - 5th grade) 10:25 a.m.

Pre-school 4-year olds through those in 5th grade in the fall. For the first time
lessons will be offered that often are missed in the regular school year schedule.
In June the classes will be about the Many Faces of Easter.
In July students will learn about The Crosses, Easter Eggs, Jesus and the
Twelve, and The Good Shepherd and World Communion.
Children’s Choir: We will continue to offer choir rehearsal in Laura Corner after Sunday
School, at 11:00 am. Ms. Nora Jeffrey leads the choir. The Children’s Choir will perform once a
month at the 9:00 am service.

It’s NOT an Earthquake! It’s NOT a Typhoon! It’s...
SUMMER SUNDAY SCHOOL:
Students in grades 6-12 will read Run Baby Run by Nicky Cruz during the Sunday school time, beginning
June 7 and through August. The book is a powerful story of a man whose life was dramatically changed
by the love of Jesus, a man who was doomed to spend his life in prison, if he wasn’t first killed on the
streets. Madre Cynthia will lead the class, with students reading the book in class, and discussing what
they have read. If you miss a class, or are wondering if you can join late, come.
You can catch up on the reading at home. This is a story worth knowing! Trust me!.

While our effort to take middle and high school kids from All Saints’ on a roadtrip to the Wild Goose Music Festival in North Carolina never

START PLANNING for the NAF 2015
The National Acolyte Festival Trip
The UT football season starts in three months and that means it is time to plan for our annual National
Acolyte Festival (NAF) trip. Our acolytes make this trip annually, and all active acolytes are invited to
consider going. Participating in the service at the National Cathedral with its procession of hundreds
of acolytes inspires us all and connects our youth with the greater community, as well as giving them a
greater sense of pride and care as they perform their duties at All Saints’.
What is the National Acolyte Festival?
The National Acolyte Festival is held annually to celebrate the ministry of acolytes. The festival
consists of a special service where all acolytes attending process down the aisle at the National
Cathedral, reaffirm their commitment to serving, and have the opportunity to meet acolytes from
other states. Hundreds of acolytes participate. They vest in various garb; not all acolytes wear
albs exactly like ours. They carry all manner of banners. We’ve seen liturgical dancers, a glittery
umbrella twirled over the Gospel book, and a sort of military cadence around the cross. The
festival presents a magnificent view of the diversity within the Episcopal church.
When and where is National Acolyte Festival?
October 10, 2015, at the National Cathedral in Washington, DC.
We leave Austin early Friday morning, and return late Sunday evening.
Who can attend?
Active All Saints‘ acolytes who fulfill fundraiser volunteer requirements
What do I have to do to go?
1. Signup up before July 12th by making $100 deposit (Check to ASEC; memo line: NAF 2015.
Put check in acolyte mailbox in office or give to Acolyte Sponsor Tracy Cornelius)
2. Acolyte and one parent required to participate in all the fundraisers:
• UT MOOVin August 17-- 22
• UT home football games parking — September 12, 19, 26; October 24; and November 8.
Fundraisers pay the majority of trip costs, and each participating acolyte and one parent are
required to volunteer at each fundraiser. The time commitment for MOOOVin depends on the
number of acolytes going on the trip and for football games approximately 3 hours for everyone.
We love our parking lot and you will, too.
If you have questions, please contact Patricia Goubil-Gambrell
to sign up or ask questions about the trip at [email protected]

so much more than a concert
www.frontporchaustin.org
All Saints’ mission, The Front Porch, is forging ahead for the summer. Hosting concerts, art shows, film screenings, pub-churches,
and more, all with a focus on open conversation and community, our mustard seed of a nonprofit seeks to champion the propensity
of the living Christ to engage new voices and ideas through dialogue.
5:30-7:00 p.m. at Scholz Garten,
1607 San Jacinto Blvd, Austin, TX
Slowly but surely working toward making pub-church an every Sunday service at Scholz Garten, we
hosted three great PARABLE gatherings in May with Jungian Analyst/ priest Pittman McGehee, social
theorist Frank Richardson, and Edible Austin founder/editor Marla Camp. While we’ll take things a bit
slower during summer’s early months – we’ll host just three PARABLEs over both June and July – August
should mark our ﬁrst ever month to feature PARABLE as a weekly happening. Come join our PARABLE
congregation on June 28th, July 12th, and/or July 19th to ﬁnd out why more and more people are adding
The Front Porch’s dialogical pub-church to their regular Sunday evening routines.
Stay tuned for details on frontporchaustin.com.
Once a month, Unplugged unites The Front Porch unites our non-profit and
The Live Music Capital Foundation in an effort to transform the All Saints’ Sanctuary
into a perfect listening room for the Austin music community, one characterized by
mutual respect from audience and musician alike.
May also marked the end of our 2014-2015 season of Unplugged on The Front Porch.
Hosting a full-on blues-fusion extravaganza with Woody Russell and his band, we were
ecstatic to end the run on such a high note, and so grateful to see such a supportive
turnout for our final performance. Unplugged will also take a hiatus in June and July
as we prepare our 2015-2016 program, which is already slated to feature:
Ray Benson, Dave Madden, Carrie Elkin, Danny Schmidt, and Erin Ivey.
Stay tuned at frontporchaustin.org or on our Facebook page for Unplugged,
facebook.com/frontporchunplugged, to find out more about upcoming programs.
Unplugged on The Front Porch won’t be the only thing to resume in August – the ﬁnal summer month will also mark our return to
Film Church. While many of the details for this new program are still being worked out, we know for sure that we’ll be partnering with
the Cultural Leadership Project to make it happen, curating cutting-edge, feature-length ﬁlms, and ﬁnding Austin’s coolest ﬁlm experts
to lead our conversations. Again, stay tuned on our website in upcoming months for an ofﬁcial unveiling of our newest attempt to
connect outside the church in innovative ways.
The Front Porch’s gathering for High School teens. Stayed tuned to our website.

Curate’s Corner
— The Rev. Cynthia Caruso
In April at the coffee hour after the 7:30 service, I introduced a new friend of mine to other worshipers who were drinking coffee.
As I made introductions I realized that almost every person was carrying great pain. Some were ill, seriously ill. Some had
extremely difficult family situations. I remembered how at Church of the Holy Spirit in Gallup, the two vicars offered individual
prayer at the altar rail every Sunday for people who felt they needed it, and so I asked Father Mike if I could offer prayer and
anointing at that 7:30 service the next time I preached/celebrated, and he said, “Yes.”
The next time I was celebrant at that early morning service, I got cold feet. I almost didn’t say anything. I had forgotten to ask the
priests in Gallup when they did the prayers. Was it at the offertory? Then I looked at the faces of the people, and immediately
remembered that my priests prayed just before the Peace. So when I had said the absolution, after the confession, I invited anyone
who wanted to be prayed for and anointed to come forward. I also told them that if no one came, it would not hurt my feelings.
At first no one moved, and I got ready to share the Peace, when someone stood up, then another, and another. We started to walk
to the altar, when I remembered what else the priests in Gallup did, and I turned and invited those who still sat in the pews to come
and put their hands on those who were asking for prayer, and another woman came forward. Eight people knelt, waiting for me
to pray, and one other put her hands on the shoulders of two who knelt. I began at my right, and I prayed for each person. No one
moved. No one coughed. It was utterly silent except for my praying. I had the sense of being in a strong wind, a wind so powerful
it would have knocked me over had I not been held in place by the people kneeling.
It was holy. The silence, the people looking up at me, their willingness to let me pray and bless, the parishioner with her hands on
two people’s shoulders, and those sitting in the pews. They were a crucial part of it. They were so still. I could feel the prayers of
those in the pews, joining with my words.
I had to compose myself when I finished and the nine returned to their seats.
Father Mike and I had already been talking about offering a mid-week Eucharist with healing prayer. Whether it is mid-week, or
at another time, I hope to be a part of this ministry. I invite you to be part of it too.

Bridge Ministry ( An Addiction Recovery Ministry)
— The Rev. Deacon Ed Woolery-Price
Psalm 23
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not be in want. He makes me lie down in green pastures and leads me beside still water.
He revives my soul and guides me along right pathways for his Name’ sake.
Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I shall fear no evil; for you are with me; your rod and staff, they comfort me.
You spread a table before me in the presence of those who trouble me; you have anointed my head with oil, and my cup is running over.
Surely your goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.
There are times, if we are honest, when we ﬁnd ourselves completely defenseless. Perhaps it is from being in total despair at the loss of
a friend or loved one. Or perhaps that despair is due to a lack of ability to give up a habit that is consuming and destroying our very being.
To whom then, can we turn to refresh our souls? A loved one, a priest, the Bible? For this article I’d like to focus on the 23rd Psalm, as a
source of comfort when at times we might feel completely defenseless and are overcome with despair. I found an unexpected source of
comfort from the psalm by an understanding that humans in their despair can be like sheep, who are completely defenseless.
How then is the nature of a defenseless animal helpful to understand Psalm 23? The psalm begins, “The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not
be in want.” Shepherds are keepers of sheep, guardian of their welfare. That is plain enough.
So what is the big deal? Well, sheep are helpless. How so? Here are two examples. First, they are nearly blind, and they need a shepherd
to guide them and to lead them in and out of a sheep fold to pasture each day. It seems to me that the psalmist is using sheep as a metaphor
for you and me, and that places us in a relationship with the Lord when we can not ﬁnd a green pasture to nourish our impoverished soul.
It follows then, that when we follow our Lord, we shall not be in want.
Secondly, sheep are easily terriﬁed whenever they come close to running water. Should they fall into a river their wool becomes wet and
they drown in a heart beat. So, when sheep sense they are by fast running water, they would rather die of thirst than go near the river for
fear of drowning. Therefore each day the good shepherd must ﬁnd a quiet pool of water next to a river for the sheep to drink in safety.
“He leads me beside still water.” Just as the sheep trust their shepherd, and know the sound of his voice, we know the sound of the Lord’s
voice through the written word and the Holy Spirit and we can trust in Him to lead us to still water, which in turn will give comfort to our
thirsty souls.
“Surely your goodness and mercy shall follow me all days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.” Amen.

Saints On Call provides one or several meals to a parishioner who is just home from the hospital or who has had a
death in the family. Saints On Call has a list of people who have indicated a willingness to cook a meal and deliver it
to a fellow parishioner in need. Using this list, the Saints On Call captain of the week ﬁnds someone who lives near
the parishioner to take care of meal preparation and delivery. This same offer also pertains to other needs, such as
rides to medical or other appointments at those times when your usual resources seem to be out of pocket. If you

Serving Colleges and Universities in the Austin Area
“All shall be well. And all shall be well. And all
manner of things shall be well.”
Hey, What’s Going On Over There At The Day School?
Graduation!
— St. Julian of Norwich
In the midst of a busy semester, it is easy to be
consumed by all that life has to offer. In particular,
it is a challenge for our senior class, who is focused
on finishing their college career well, in addition to
making the transition to the next step of their
journey. As we have officially concluded the
semester and accompanying commencement, St.
Julian’s words wash over me like a welcome rain
shower.
While I experience relief from the hectic pace, I am
also grateful for the opportunity to celebrate the
joys the students have been in our midst. In
particular, our seniors have lit a bright future for
those who are to come behind them for many
generations. We send them forward with our
deepest thanks and blessings for the journey ahead.
We celebrate where they are headed: Dylan Fox
will begin a Masters in Mental Health Counseling
and Behavioral Sciences at Boston University.
Christina Humphries is matriculating to Dental
School in Arizona. Caleb Parker is moving to San
Antonio to take on a year of service through the
City Year program. Marina Martin is becoming
an architectural engineer for a local firm here in
Austin. Chris Fox has just completed Law School,
and will be moving to Dallas to begin working for
a firm after completing the Texas Bar.
We are better for having had time with you. We are
more complete for having you in our midst. We are
so proud of all that you have accomplished! We will
continue to hold you close in our hearts.
Go forth from this place assured of St. Julian’s
wisdom, “All shall be well. And all shall be well.
And all manner of things shall be well.”
Blessings,

Book Review
— Joe Liro
This is the fifth in a series of reviews by Joe Liro of a number of books that deal with the spiritual nature of gardening. The
books come from a number of different of points of view: Orthodox spirituality, biblically-based Suess-like poetry, psychotherapy, lyric
poetry, medieval medicine, and Celtic spirituality. Joe is a teacher, linguist, gardener, herbalist, cook. He is a retired administrator in higher
education and continues to teach as a professor of Russian at Austin Community College. He is married to the Reverend Judith Liro of St.
Hildegard’s in Austin. He and his family have been members of All Saints’ since 1971.
There are two works that should be in a gardener’s bookcase – or on the nightstand. Both of these are jewels.
The ﬁrst is “Blue Iris: Poems and Essays” by Mary Oliver. (Reviewed last month) The second is Hildegard’s
Healing Plants, translated by Bruce W. Hozeski. (Reviewed this month)
Hildegard’s Healing Plants, translated by Bruce W. Hozeski
Hildegard von Bingen, the 12th century German mystic, wrote profusely as a prophet, poet, dramatist, physician,
and political moralist. She was an extraordinary woman who exerted tremendous inﬂuence – both temporal and
spiritual – on her time. Her wisdom has endured and she continues to have inﬂuence.
“Healing Plants” is the ﬁrst section of Hildegard’s writings on medicine and natural science. The relationship
between humanity and the world is a theme that runs throughout her works. Hildegard uses the Latin word
viriditas, literally “greenness,” to refer to growth of the principle of life. It is a symbolic term that connects
humanity, plants, and the earth.
Hildegard’s “Plants” discusses the medical uses of 230 plants and grains. The plants in this section are generally
those which could be collected from the woods and ﬁelds or grown in the convent garden. More exotic ingredients
such as ginger, pepper, sugar, no doubt had to be purchased. In the science of the day, plants and created things
consisted of mixtures of four elements – hot, cold, wet, dry – and it was important to know the elemental qualities
of plants so that their use would lead to a balanced state in those using the plants. For Hildegard, hot and cold were
the oppositional qualities that were most signiﬁcant for medicinal purposes.
That context helps our understanding of Hildegard’s comments about plants. She starts with grains: “I. Wheat…
is warm … and there is nothing lacking in it.” “IV. Barley is cold.” “V. Spelt is the best grain: it is hot and rich
and strong. It is sweeter than other grains.”
Remember that we are speaking of medieval medicine, and such terms as “humors” and “vapors” had special
meaning and “poultices” and “purgatives” were part of a healer’s stock in trade. With that in mind, consider some
of Hildegard’s prescriptions. These might align with current knowledge in a case or two (licorice, aloe), proof that
some treatments we rely on are very old indeed.
“XIX. Licorice is moderately warm. No matter how it is eaten, it gives a person a clear voice and makes his or
her mind pleasant. It soothes the stomach for digestion.”
“XXI. Nutmeg. If a person eats nutmeg, it opens the heart and puriﬁes the senses. Take some nutmeg, an equal
weight of cinnamon, and a little cloves. Grind these to a powder, add a similar amount of whole wheat ﬂour and
a little water, and make a paste of this. Then eat it often. It will calm all the bitterness of heart and mind, open the
heart and clouded senses, and make the mind joyful.” (Well, of course it will! Except for a short time in the oven
and an ingredient or two, Hildegard has invented the Pfeffernüsse. -JL)
“XXII. Rose is cold and this same coldness has a useful temperament in it. At daybreak or in the morning, take a
rose leaf and place it over your eye; this draws out the humor and makes it clear.”
“XLII. Houseleek. If a man eats it who was healthy in his genital nature, he would be on ﬁre with desire, just as
if he were crazy.”
“XC. Lettuce. Let whoever wishes to eat it ﬁrst mix and temper it with dill, vinegar, or garlic, so that it is steeped
in these for a short time before it is eaten. If eaten and tempered in this way, lettuce strengthens the brain and
brings good digestion.” (Eat your salad, kids! –JL)
“CLXXIV. Aloe. The juice of the aloe is warm and has great strength.”
Hozenski comments that, in reading Hildegard’s comments and prescriptions, one cannot decide with certainty
whether she is relying on her own experience, traditional lore, or written authorities. Similarly, she uses Middle
High German colloquial names for the plants and herbs, which may or may not be same as today’s names.

The Rector Thinks Out Loud...About the Weather
Continued from page 1
like to say, if you don’t like the weather, just wait 30 minutes and it’ll change. Furthermore, we listen to the
weather incessantly and we watch multiple weather channels and we use weather apps on our smart phones,
computers, and tablets. And, of course, we are very critical of those ‘weather people’ when they are wrong - which
they often are (or so it seems). We have thermometers, barometers, rain gauges, and mini-weather stations in our
yards and at our places of business. Yep, we definitely seem to be obsessed with the weather.
As I mentioned at the beginning of this reflection, in light of the recent storms, on the one hand our weather
obsession makes perfect sense. Clearly the weather has a huge impact upon our day-to-day lives. Yet upon further
reflection, on the other hand, our weather obsession often seems futile. We actually have no control over the
weather and all our weather instruments and weather forecasts and Doppler radars and smart phone apps can do
little other than provide us with limited, often inaccurate information.
Ah, wait a minute…..perhaps herein lies the real motivator for our fascination with the weather. We really have
absolutely no control over the weather (though some would say global climate change notwithstanding). No matter
what we do, we cannot determine if our day will be sunny or rainy or cold or hot, and we cannot make it the way
we want it. The weather is simply beyond our control and therefore even beyond our understanding.
You see, in so many areas of our lives, we strive for control; we want to be in charge of things and make things
happen the way we want them to happen. And, even though we are more often than not unsuccessful at such
endeavors, we nevertheless continue to strive for control in our lives. But, it seems to me, we have to admit that
with the weather, we are utterly at its mercy. We must simply live with whatever Mother Nature doles out, and
this then creates in us anxiety and interest and a fascination with our inability to impact this critical aspect of our
lives.
So, maybe this understanding of the weather will allow us to think theologically and look at it things this way: For
all our desire to be “in charge,” in the end, we are not always so good at it. And, therefore, isn’t it wonderful that this
is one area where we can simply let go and just be present with the good and the bad? And to trust that rain or sunshine,
God is always there?! Just thinking out loud…
Your Servant in Christ,
Mike+
