SUMMARY:Adult Forum: Updates to Calvary Bylaws
DESCRIPTION:We will host a forum on January 19 after the 8:30 service in Crawford Hall to review proposed updates to Calvary’s bylaws. Our bylaws were last updated in 1991 and they are not aligned with the language and requirements in the current canons of the Episcopal Church in Minnesota. Further\, the ECMN implemented a requirement in 2001 that parishes in the dioceses review and make any needed changes to their bylaws at least every ten years. Calvary is not in compliance with this requirement.\n\nAt the forum\, we will present a summary of the process to update Calvary’s bylaws (which began in 2021) and review the draft of the proposed bylaws that was approved by the vestry at their December meeting.\n\nFind links to Calvary’s current bylaws and the proposed new bylaws in The Visitor.

SUMMARY:Epiphany Pageant
DESCRIPTION:We start the 2025 off with a bang – the No-Stress\, No-Rehearsal Epiphany Pageant! \nWhat does this mean? Well for those of you who dread having to drag your kids to yet another rehearsal\, this is the answer! Really\, there is no rehearsal. The kids just need to show up about 30 minutes before the pageant to collect their costumes and then follow the cues given in the script. There will be a live Baby Jesus\, many beautiful costumes\, and you really can’t miss seeing the camel! \nI do have a quick tip- especially for the little ones who might want to dress in sheep or cow costumes: make sure they have some cool clothes to wear underneath! We look forward to seeing you there!

SUMMARY:Calvary Scones\, Stones\, and Halloween Bones
DESCRIPTION:It’s time for Calvary Scones\, Stones\, and Halloween Bones\, a.k.a. Eat\, Compete\, and Dress Up! \nFall is in the air\, and it is time for Calvary’s Annual Stone Throw. Legend has it that ownership of Calvary’s corner lot rested on a bet made by George Head\, Rochester’s first mayor\, and Henry Benjamin Whipple\, Minnesota’s first Episcopal bishop: whoever threw a massive stone farthest would become the owner. Every year\, we celebrate Bishop Whipple’s historic win with a recreation of the event. Come and see if you are the parishioner who will win the stone throw this year. Many thanks to the Mueller family for organizing the Stone Throw.  \nAnd that’s not all! We are excited to announce that we will be serving homemade scones (probably just like the ones served to Mayor Head and Bishop Whipple) with coffee\, cider\, and hot chocolate. If you would like to contribute homemade scones\, please let Cindy Heins know. Call or text (507) 993-5824 or e-mail heins.cynthia@gmail.com. \nBut wait\, there’s more! It is the Sunday before Halloween\, so we encourage you to wear your Halloween costume to eat\, compete\, and of course attend the 8:30 or 10:30 service.

SUMMARY:Parish Listening Session – Director of Music
DESCRIPTION:As part of the process for hiring our next director of music\, we will host a parish listening session at 9:15 am on October 6th in Crawford Hall. We are seeking input from the congregation to inform the drafting of an updated job description for the role. Questions we are seeking input on include: \n\nWhat should the scope of the role be beyond the requirements of planning liturgical music\, directing the choir\, and serving as organist?\nWhat role should the position play in outreach\, fellowship\, and other pillars of parish life?\nWhat could this position do that we are not currently doing and how will that enrich our faith community?\n\nThe listening session will be hosted by vestry member Michelle Ackerman and co-treasurer Darren Cooper\, who\, along with vestry member Anne High and Reverend Beth\, are leading a workgroup to discern the future of the director of music role at Calvary. Please come with your ideas and aspirations for the director of music role. Your input is crucial and we look forward to hearing from you.
