Pentecost. Happy Birthday to the Church. This observance was originally Jewish festival of Shavuot, observed during the Feast of Weeks. It was celebrated 50 days after the Passover as a thanksgiving to the Lord for the blessing of the Harvest. For Christians, this was the manifestation of the Holy Spirit in the Apostles in Jerusalem. The reason the Holy Spirit had to be made manifest was due to the fact the apostles were first given the gift on the evening of that first Easter but it was not realized until Pentecost. Isnt that our problem today as well as then? Do you know the spiritual gifts that God has given you and that you were also given the Holy Spirit, just like the apostles? Sometimes the Holy Spirit is awakened within us just like it is when the Bishop gives us a gentle slap at our confirmation? What would our parish be like if the Holy Spirit was alive, vibrant and working in each of our parishioners as the Body of Christ in this place? God would be well pleased. Often times in our Christian journey, we are longing to please God as we discern how to better love and serve Him. Come Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful people and enkindle in them the fire of your love. Amen.
In the next few pages of this months edition of Wales Tales, you will notice that we have much to offer as a parish to her people. I offer thanksgiving for those opportunities that God has placed before us. To better communicate, our church staff is meeting every Tuesday morning, first in Morning Prayer in the chapel at 9:30 a.m. and then our staff meeting in the office that follows. We have found that this keeps us more focused and unified to carry out that which God has given us to do in serving Him and you.
Finally, thank you for the marvelous turnout for the funeral of the 5 th Rector of Saint David of Wales, Father R. Roy Baines on Saturday, May 31 st , as Bishop Stanton officiated and preached that day for his last official liturgical and pastoral act in our Diocese. Father Baines was a good and faithful priest for 17 years here at the parish and contributed greatly during his tenure. Please pray for his wife Gerry and the Baines family as we have gained another in the nearer presence of God to intercede on our behalf. May he rest in peace and rise in glory.
See you in church. He is Risen indeed!
The Curat e s Comment ary Father Clint Wilson, Curate
Dear Saint David's Community:
By God's grace I have been in a process of learning that we are not Kingdom builders, but Kingdom "diggers." What on earth does this mean?
The great Anglican theologian F.D. Maurice turned me onto this idea in writing, "[T]heology, is not to build, but to dig, to show that economy and politics [and by extension, everything]...must have a ground beneath themselves, that society is not to be made anew by arrangements of ours, but is to be regenerated by finding the law and ground of its order and harmony, the only secret of its existence, in God." 1 According to Maurice, we are to be about "proclaiming society and humanity to be divine realities, as they stand, not as they may become, and by calling upon priests, kings, and prophets of the world to answer for their sin in having made them unreal by separating them from the living and eternal God who has established them in Christ for His glory." 2
This is what the Psalmist is touching on in writing, "May the glory of the Lord endure forever; may the Lord rejoice in his works" (Ps 104:31). The entire context surrounding this passage is all about these works being fundamentally grounded in their creator. God "set[s] the earth on its foundations" (v. 5), "make[s] springs gush forth in the valleys" (v. 10), causes "the grass to grow for the cattle" (v. 14); these are the "works" in which the Lord may "rejoice." Again, the image here is of the created order sustained and upheld in God, who is their source of being and flourishing.

Maurice's call to dig is therefore appropriate for understanding the Christian life we are called to live together at St. Davids. Our task is always one of uncovering how God's Kingdom is already breaking through before we ever come along, which is another way of saying God's Gospel is never contingent upon his creation. We do not construct, therefore, we dig by the power of the Holy Spirit, chipping off the dirt and decay and grime of sin, thereby unearthing (or re-earthing, rather) the Kingdom "on earth as it is in heaven," trusting that this shows how God really is, as Christ said in Luke 17, "among you."
My wife and I moved to Denton to get our hands dirty with Kingdom digging. How is God calling you to "dig" at St. Davids? At your job? In your marriage? Your Family? May God give us the strength to dig with all our Spirit-empowered might to his glory!
The Deacon s Corner Deacon Carol Hobson
We have some exciting things to announce later this year. We will be rolling out new ministries in which everyone can participate. Sometimes we tend to spend our energy ministering to each other (a vital ministry of course) and forget about the great commission to go into all the world and spread the Gospel.
We are healed and sanctified as we walk through our lives in obedience to God. There are some ways to "do Church" that are very ancient, but maybe forgotten. Each generation deals with both similar and different problems and challenges. Be looking for opportunities to deepen our understanding of the Gospel and to strengthen our community life. Please remember to pray for our parish. Ask God to raise up among us visionaries, prophets, and gifts of hospitality.

Summer Liturgical Schedule!On Pentecost Sunday, June 8, we will begin our summer liturgical schedule. Childrens Chapel will continue through the summer. The summer schedule is: Sunday, Holy Eucharist at 9:30 a.m. and 5:00 p.m.; Wednesday, Healing Liturgy and Holy Eucharist at 6:30 p.m.; Thursday, Morning Prayer and Holy Eucharist at 9:30 a.m. Questions? Please contact Holly in the office.
Peddlin Padre Strikes Againour less than somewhat sane Rector is off to another summer bicycle adventure in mid- America. Last year, as you remember, he rode across the state of Iowa in RAGBRAI (Registers Annual Great Bicycle Ride Across Iowa). In so doing, a good number of you supported his effort and pledged an amount that was raised to help renovate our now refurbished chapel. This year he is off to a bicycle rally that is called Ride the Fault Line and starts in Sikeston, Missouri and completes a loop through Arkansas, Tennessee, Kentucky and back to the start, which will be approximately a little over 400 miles. There is another project that looms on the horizon that has been needed for some time: a handicap/disabled, approved restroom on the parish hall level. So, all money pledged and raised this year on the bike ride will be directed to the parish hall restroom project. The vestry will have pledge sheets available on Sundays, to sign up those who would like to help our Rector complete his ride this summer from June 22 nd June 28 th and raise some dollars for our new restroom. Marc Brown, husband of our own Claudia Brown, will be along for this adventure as well. If you are unable to pledge, prayers are requested.
Summer Vacationsare a good and healthy activity for the entire family that are much needed to be refreshed in our overly busy world in which we live. Even our Lord needed some time away from his normal routine and duties to be refreshed. When you go on any trip that involves travel, please e-mail or call the office so that we might pray for you and your family.

New Hospitality ProcessPlease welcome Dalton Gaume-Wakefield. Dalton is a college student and is a member of the Canterbury Ministry. His job is to have everything in a clean and orderly fashion during both coffee hours Sunday mornings by washing cups, coffee urns and other serving utensils and putting away the clean ones. This is an effort to help our members sign up to bring only the food they desire to share with the parish and not have to lift the heavy coffee urns and clean up after. Chri st i an Educat i on

CursilloWhat IS Cursillo? Youve heard mention of this program from time to time, have you wondered what it is all about? The Bishops pastoral Plan for the Diocese explains it this way The mission of Cursillo is the same as the mission of the Church. But there is this difference: The Cursillos make every Christian aware of his or her responsibility for mission, and help them become good missionaries. It has been said that if everyone is responsible than no one is responsible. The mission of Cursillo is to be sure that every Christian knows that he or she is responsible for being a missionary for Christ. The Cursillos began with a bishop and laity realizing that in order to bring the world to Christ in friendship, they needed to have a plan. That plan was already implicit in the Gospel:
Find Christians who already had a vital sense of faith; Energize them with Gods immediate call to each one; Show them the way to work together to share their faith; Link them with other Christians to carry out their work.
This is the essence of Cursillo, are you ready for the next step forward in your faith?
Daughters of the Kingthe Daughters of the King will meet on June 14 at 10:00 a.m. at Saint Davids in the parish library for their monthly meeting. Canon Herrmann will be our speaker. For more information please see Judy Johnston.

Men of Saint Davids (MOSD)the MOSD will meet on Saturday, June 21 at 8:00 a.m. for Morning Prayer, breakfast and short meeting. All men of the parish are welcome and invited to meet with us.
News from the Nook!Theres lots happening at the Nook! In the last few years, we have been asked if we accept credit and debit cards. So after much discussion, thought, prayer, and with a leap of faith we can now offer the parish (and our friends) the option of using credit and debit cards. Because of the costs associated with this service, there is a $20 minimum purchase and a $2 processing fee for using this new service. Our hope is that sales will increase and we will be able to absorb the processing fee after a few months. As always, personal checks and cash are always welcome!
The Nook has many options for the new Graduate and upcoming Fathers Day; consider a bookmark, letter opener, sterling silver cufflinks, keyring, a Prayer Book, or a Bible. We are constantly getting in new merchandise and growing our book department. In fact, come check out our books for your summer reading. Like many of us, maybe you will consider adding a book to your reading list that will speak to your Christian heart. The following is a highlighted selection of some of our offerings:
The Cost of Discipleship: This book is a compelling statement of the demands of sacrifice and ethical consistency from a man whose life and thought were exemplary articulations of a new type of leadership inspired by the gospel, and imbued with the spirit of Christian civic duty. According to Father Clint: This is a great book.
Resident Aliens, Life in the Christian Colony: In this bold and visionary book, two leading Christian thinkers explore the alien status of Christians in today's world. It is a provocative Christian assessment of culture and ministry for people who know that something is wrong. Father Clints comment, This is an AMAZING BOOK!
Other selections include: Aquinas for Armchair Theologians: Thomas Aquinas was one of the most influential thinkers in the history of Christianity and in western civilization. Yet his theological views are complex and presume acquaintance with technical philosophical language. Now Timothy Renick has produced an attractive and accessible account of Aquinas's life and thought that will make his views clear to nonspecialists. The topics dealt with include God, angels, evil, metaphysics, morality, sex, war, abortion, and politics. Illustrations are interspersed throughout the text and humorously illuminate key points providing an engaging introduction to an all- important theologian. Written by experts but designed for the novice, the Armchair series provides accurate, concise, and witty overviews of some of the most profound moments and theologians in Christian history. These books are essential supplements for first- time encounters with primary texts, lucid refreshers for scholars and clergy, and enjoyable reads for the theologically curious. (Recommended by Father Clint)
Augustine for Armchair Theologians: In this book, Stephen Cooper provides an overview of the greatest theologian of the early church: Augustine of Hippo. Augustine has had a towering influence in the history of Christianity and his Confessions has long been regarded as one of Christianity's classic texts. Cooper introduces the life and thought of Augustine through discussing the Confessions and shows how many of Augustine's human struggles are still with us today. He also examines the theological views of Augustine that emerged through the important controversies of his times. Written by experts but designed for the novice, the Armchair series provides accurate, concise, and witty overviews of some of the most profound moments and theologians in Christian history. These books are essential supplements for first-time encounters with primary texts, lucid refreshers for scholars and clergy, and enjoyable reads for the theologically curious. (Recommended by Father Clint)
Proof of Heaven: A Neurosurgeon's Journey into the Afterlife By Eben Alexander: A SCIENTIST'S CASE FOR THE AFTERLIFE. Thousands of people have had near-death experiences, but scientists have argued that they are impossible. Dr. Eben Alexander was one of those scientists. A highly trained neurosurgeon, Alexander knew that NDEs feel real, but are simply fantasies produced by brains under extreme stress. Then, Dr. Alexander's own brain was attacked by a rare illness. The part of the brain that controls thought and emotion-and in essence makes us human-shut down completely. For seven days he lay in a coma. Then, as his doctors considered stopping treatment, Alexander's eyes popped open. He had come back. Alexander's recovery is a medical miracle. But the real miracle of his story lies elsewhere. While his body lay in coma, Alexander journeyed beyond this world and encountered an angelic being who guided him into the deepest realms of super-physical existence. There he met, and spoke with, the Divine source of the universe itself. Alexander's story is not a fantasy. Before he underwent his journey, he could not reconcile his knowledge of neuroscience with any belief in heaven, God, or the soul. Today Alexander is a doctor who believes that true health can be achieved only when we realize that God and the soul are real and that death is not the end of personal existence but only a transition. This story would be remarkable no matter who it happened to. That it happened to Dr. Alexander makes it revolutionary. No scientist or person of faith will be able to ignore it. Reading it may change your life.
My Utmost fot His Highest: For nearly seventy-five years, countless millions of Christians the world over have trusted the spiritual companionship of Oswald Chambers's classic daily devotional, My Utmost for His Highest. Addressing a wide range of topics, including discipleship, faith, love, and obedience these brief scripture-based readings will draw you into God's presence and form you as a disciple of the Risen Lord. You'll treasure their insight, still fresh and vital, and you'll discover what it means to offer God your very best for His greatest purpose - to truly offer Him your utmost for His highest. (Recommended by Diane Stanton)
Jesus Calling: Is your quiet time with God like a monologue of prayer requests? Sarah's used to be, until she began waiting on God to receive and record his messages. Written from Jesus' point of view and featuring Scripture excerpts, her best-selling devotional will help you hear the Spirit's voice.

Bernard Mizeki, Catechist and Martyr
Bernard Mizeki was born in Portuguese East Africa (Mozambique) in about 1861. When he was twelve or a little older, he left his home and went to Capetown, South Africa, where for the next ten years he worked as a laborer, living in the slums of Capetown, but (perceiving the disastrous effects of drunkenness on many workers in the slums) firmly refusing to drink alcohol, and remaining largely uncorrupted by his surroundings. After his day's work, he attended night classes at an Anglican school. Under the influence of his teachers, from the Society of Saint John the Evangelist (Ssje, an Anglican religious order for men, popularly called the Cowley Fathers), he became a Christian and was baptized on 9 March 1886. Besides the fundamentals of European schooling, he mastered English, French, high Dutch, and at least eight local African languages. In time he would be an invaluable assistant when the Anglican church began translating its sacred texts into African languages. After graduating from the school, he accompanied Bishop Knight-Bruce to Mashonaland, a tribal area in Southern Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe), to work there as a lay catechist. In 1891 the bishop assigned him to Nhowe, the village of paramount-chief Mangwende, and there he built a mission-complex. He prayed the Anglican hours each day, tended his subsistence garden, studied the local language (which he mastered better than any other foreigner in his day), and cultivated friendships with the villagers. He eventually opened a school, and won the hearts of many of the Mashona through his love for their children. He moved his mission complex up onto a nearby plateau, next to a grove of trees sacred to the ancestral spirits of the Mashona. Although he had the chief's permission, he angered the local religious leaders when he cut some of the trees down and carved crosses into others. Although he opposed some local traditional religious customs, Bernard was very attentive to the nuances of the Shona Spirit religion. He developed an approach that built on people's already monotheistic faith in one God, Mwari, and on their sensitivity to spirit life, while at the same time he forthrightly proclaimed the Christ. Over the next five years (1891-1896), the mission at Nhowe produced an abundance of converts.
Many black African nationalists regarded all missionaries as working for the European colonial governments. During an uprising in 1896, Bernard was warned to flee. He refused, since he did not regard himself as working for anyone but Christ, and he would not desert his converts or his post. On 18 June 1896, he was fatally speared outside his hut. His wife and a helper went to get food and blankets for him. They later reported that, from a distance, they saw a blinding light on the hillside where he had been lying, and heard a rushing sound, as though of many wings. When they returned to the spot his body had disappeared. The place of his death has become a focus of great devotion for Anglicans and other Christians, and one of the greatest of all Christian festivals in Africa takes place there every year around the feast day that marks the anniversary of his martyrdom, June 18.
