"Everybody can be great...because anybody can serve.

You don't have to have a college degree to serve.

You don't have to make your subject and verb agree to serve. You only need a heart full of grace. A soul generated by love."

-- Martin Luther King, Jr.

1. Christians

-- By Maya Angelou

When I say... "I am a Christian"

I'm not shouting "I'm clean livin'."

I'm whispering "I was lost,

Now I'm found and forgiven."

When I say... "I am a Christian"

I don't speak of this with pride.

I'm confessing that I stumble

and need Christ to be my guide.

When I say... "I am a Christian"

I'm not trying to be strong.

I'm professing that I'm weak

And need His strength to carry on.

When I say. "I am a Christian"

I'm not bragging of success.

I'm admitting I have failed

And need God to clean my mess.

When I say... "I am a Christian"

I'm not claiming to be perfect,

My flaws are far too visible

But, God believes I am worth it.

When I say... "I am a Christian"

I still feel the sting of pain.

I have my share of heartaches

So I call upon His name.

When I say... "I am a Christian"

I'm not holier than thou,

I'm just a simple sinner

Who received God's good grace, somehow.

2. 2006 Liturgical Calendar

The 2005-2006 Liturgical Calendar and Lectionary, Year B is now on the Chi Rho Press Web site. You may view it and order it at this link:

http://www.chirhopress.com/products/product_details/BookRevLiturgicalCa05_06.html

The 2005-2006 Liturgical Calendar and Lectionary sells for 11.95 each, $9.50 each for six or more copies, plus shipping and handling.

The Lectionary in the Liturgical Calendar is from the Revised Common Lectionary, widely used as the ecumenical consensus on readings for each Sunday and holy day in the three-year cycle. Our Liturgical Calendar is packed with useful information for planning worship and preaching in the local church for each Sunday and Holy Day of the Church Year. It is intended for use by pastors, musicians, altar guilds, teachers, theological students, and anyone using the Church Year as a basis for worship or education. The Liturgical Calendar is spiral bound so it can lie flat for easy use, in the popular 8 ½" x 11" format.

Featured in this new Liturgical Calendar are these sections:

A Heading that identifies the day in the church year (for example, the first Sunday of Advent, or Proper 20) with alternative descriptions where appropriate. The Revised Common Lectionary readings, including a brief summary of each reading. (These are intended as only a very brief overview to identify general themes as an aid to worship planning. We do not represent them as anything approaching a thorough exegesis.) The First Reading is usually from the Hebrew Testament, but there are exceptions, such as the use of readings from Acts during the Easter season.

These are sometimes selected thematically to fit the Liturgical Calendar, but often are simply being read through key passages over a series of weeks. This is followed by a Response, usually a Psalm. The Epistle Reading is next, like the Hebrew Testament Reading typically a series of key passages from the same book being read over a number of weeks. Finally the Gospel Reading follows the story of Jesus through the Christmas and Easter cycles, plus the teachings of Jesus the rest of the year.

Next is a section on Worship Planning, including the liturgical Color of the day, Symbols and decorations that can be used to enhance the worship experience, and Special Events for the week which the congregation may want to remember and commemorate on Sunday.

Rev. Witt has added lots of Notes in the Worship Planning section, which serve to explain in more detail information about the time of the church year, provide resources for further study and information, and develop liturgical themes to make your worship experience more rich and meaningful.

The last section for each Sunday is called Following God's Footprints and is the unique contribution of Raye-Anne Dorn, a former Roman Catholic priest (before her transition). For every day of the year, Raye-Anne gives us a traditional saint, with a brief overview of an important theme for which the saint is remembered and what that particular saint can teach us. Some Diversity Dates are also included, special occasions for celebrations of diversity, such as special celebration days for specific cultures (e.g., Cinco de Mayo) and special days for the GLBT community (e.g., a day of remembrance for Matthew Shepard).

As a special added section, we have included alternative readings for the four Sundays of Pride-Tide (June) prepared by the Rev. Gordon McCoy. The four sets of readings for Pride-Tide may be used at any time in the year that the faith community celebrates LGBT Pride. The standard Revised Common Lectionary readings are included for the four Sundays in June as well.

The 2005-2006 Liturgical Calendar will be a helpful aid for anyone involved in planning worship, as well as a useful resource for all who want to know more about the Church year and the rich liturgical life of the Church Universal. We think you will like this new Liturgical Calendar.

3. A newly Gay-owned restaurant in Gaithersburg, MD

For those of you in the Washington, DC metropolitan area, Adam DeBaugh has started assisting a young Gay couple who bought a restaurant in Old Town Gaithersburg, MD. Here is a press release prepared just for the LGBT community and our friends.

Chris' Steak House

An Old Gaithersburg Tradition with a New Look

For Immediate Release

Contact Adam DeBaugh for more information,

301/926-1208

Old Town Gaithersburg has an exciting new flavor. Chris' Steak House, a Gaithersburg tradition since 1964, has new, openly Gay owners; a whole new menu; a growing beer and wine list; and a welcoming, inclusive new feel.

When Gay entrepreneur Keith Gross bought Chris' Steak House in July 2005, he and his partner Ben Cavanaugh were determined to transform the venerable restaurant into a place that would welcome a wide diversity of people, including members of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender community.

Keith and Ben offer a 10% "Family Discount" to members of the LGBT community and our friends who identify themselves. The door facing Diamond Avenue sports a Human Rights Campaign (HRC) "equal sign" bumper sticker and the Web site features the HRC symbol as well. And Keith and Ben are looking for additional ways to connect to the extensive LGBT community in Montgomery County and beyond.

When Keith bought Chris' Steak House the menu, while extensive, was "basically steak and fried stuff," the new owner says. "We have changed the menu to provide a more diverse, more healthy group of choices. Salmon, chicken, pork chops, asparagus, hearty salads, and simple, yet elegant desserts like homemade crème brulée, a good New York cheese cake, apple pie, and a fabulous chocolate Kahlua Bundt cake."

Ben is especially proud of the mixed greens salads, which can be had with just greens, or with large slabs of grilled salmon, chicken, or steak, and which feature dried cranberries and glazed walnuts or pine nuts. He is also the creator of the Kahlua cake, which he bakes on-site and has become a big hit with regulars. "Pure comfort food," is Keith's opinion.

A growing beer and wine list compliments the meals with some interesting selections. The beer and ale list includes Blue Moon, an unfiltered Belgian-style wheat beer; Yuengling, O'Douls, Guinness, Sam Adams, Corona, and Sierra Nevada, along with the usual standards.

Chris' wine list features some fine Copperidge labels, an excellent Ecco Domani Merlot, and wines from the Yellowtail winery, including a Cabernet-Merlot blend that is becoming a house favorite.

Chris' Steak House is also now open for Sunday brunch, starting at 10 am. Wednesdays and Thursdays feature a Prime Rib special. And try the Buffalo Chicken Wings appetizer for the incredibly meaty wings, along with an excellent calamari and blue crab fritters with a lobster ginger sauce. Keith and Ben also have gift certificates available for any occasion.

The décor at Chris' is changing as well. Where it used to be heavy on the Washington Redskins posters, now more original art adorns the walls and Keith and Ben are looking for local artists who are interested in displaying their artwork at Chris'.

Keith and Ben are hoping to turn Chris' Steak House in Old Town Gaithersburg into a place where the broad diversity of Montgomery County will gather for good food and to forge new friendships. Come visit and meet Keith and Ben and the friendly staff!

Chris' Steak House, 201 East Diamond Avenue, Old Town Gaithersburg, MD 20877. 301/869-6116. Visit our new Web site at www.hotbeercoldfood.com for a complete menu and directions.

4. May We Suggest Two Lenten Studies?

Lent begins on Wednesday, March 1, just a few weeks away, and Chi Rho Press is very proud of our two books of Lenten devotions. Here is a description of each one.

"'You Need Only To Be Still:' Using the Hebrew Scriptures to Journey Through Lent," by Randy Jedele. Spiral bound, 5½" x 8½", 100 pages. A book of daily devotions for Lent, in which author Randy Jedele takes us on a journey through the Old Testament. A lay Christian Education minister in the United Church of Christ in Iowa, Randy Jedele has drawn on his strong Protestant and Congregationalist background to enliven the Hebrew Testament for us in new ways in these Lenten devotions. View it on our Web site at this link:

http://www.chirhopress.com/products/product_details/BookRevYouNeedOnlyToBeStill.htm

In "You Need Only to be Still," each of the 40 days of Lent, starting with Ash Wednesday, features a Hebrew Testament passage, followed by two questions for your consideration to bring the passage into our own lives.

Then Randy provides his own "Thoughts for Meditating,"

a few paragraphs reflecting on the ancient Bible story in which he offers some background information where it is needed and his own thoughts on the two questions.

On the right hand page for each day in Lent there is space for the reader to write his or her own "Personal Reflections," an opportunity for the reader to respond and record thoughts and feelings. Each day concludes with a prayer, a personal moment between the reader and God. For each Friday, Randy has chosen a passage from the Psalms.

The six Sundays of Lent in "You Need Only to be Still"

have a very different format with two blank pages for each Sunday, one for "Reflections from the Past Week"

and one for "Opportunities to Seek in the New Week."

Randy writes, "I have chosen the Sunday format for a couple of reasons. First of all, I have chosen not to have a Scripture passage for Sundays because I did not want to interfere with the scripture passages used in the regular lectionary for the day. Secondly, it is my practice to do just as I have suggested on Sundays. I spend my devotional time on Sundays to reflect on the events of my past week and contemplate on opportunities that may lie before me in the new week.

I think it is important for us to remind ourselves of the lessons we have learned, the joys we have known, and the pains that have pierced our hearts. It is also good for us to make plans for the days that come before us. Reflecting is truly a time of quiet meditation and being still before God."

The title, "You Need Only to be Still," comes from Exodus 14:13-14, "Moses answered the people, 'Do not be afraid. Stand firm and you will see the deliverance the Lord will bring you today. The Egyptians you see today you will never see again. The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still.'" Randy Jedele writes, in the Introduction, "Too often we Christians ignore the Hebrew Scriptures and build our relationships with God on the New Testament. However, as I have journeyed through the Hebrew Scriptures through the years, I have always marked passages that spoke to me.

It has not surprised me to discover a wealth of spiritual wisdom throughout the Hebrew Scriptures.

It is my hope and prayer that those who use this devotional as they journey through Lent will also discover the richness of the God of the Hebrew Scriptures. Truly, there is much to be learned as we discover the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the God of Hannah, Ruth, and Esther, a God who was a powerful source in the lives of those who learned to seek the presence of the living God and to live in the stillness of God's grace."

"Over and over, God calls us to be still, so that God can minister to our hearts and prepare us to journey each day as a new day. . . . I have envisioned that [this devotional] will mostly be a personally journey, a quiet time each day when the readers will, on their own, seek the stillness of God. . . . As you read, meditate, and pray through this devotional, may God bless and enrich your life. It is my prayer that each of you will find God in the stillness of your busy lives and that God will provide you with wisdom, fill you with peace, and shower you with love."

We know you will be blessed by this book of devotions for Lent. You may order it on our Web site at this link:

http://www.chirhopress.com/products/product_details/BookRevYouNeedOnlyToBeStill.htm

$10.95 each, six or more copies for $8.95 each, plus shipping and handling.

*****

Our first book of Lenten Meditations was "For Another Flock," written from a Gay Roman Catholic point of view. "For Another Flock: Rainbow Meditations and Study Guide for Lent," by Jeffrey Lea.

($10.95 each, $8.95 each for six or more copies, plus shipping and handling.) View it on our Web site at:

http://www.chirhopress.com/products/product_details/BookRevForAnotherFlock.htm

Written out of the deep faith and learning of a gay practicing Roman Catholic and from a Catholic perspective, "For Another Flock" includes daily meditations for all the days of Lent and Holy Week, beginning with Ash Wednesday (which this year is Feb.

9), and ending with Easter Sunday. Scripture readings are provided for every day in Lent and Holy Week followed by a reflection from a uniquely gay and Catholic point of view and a prayer.

Following the daily meditations is a seven-week Lenten Bible Study Guide. Jeff Lea's introduction explores Lent as a penitential season, discussing penance and repentance.

Each weekly Bible Study starts with a Gospel reading.

There is a Lenten theme for each of the seven sessions.

Week One is "An Ash Wednesday Ritual and Discussion of the Nature of Penance." Week Two is "The Nature of Temptation." Week Three is "The Meaning of Sin in our Lives." Week Four is "Faithfulness and Homosexuality."

Week Five is "The Joy of Being Gay." Week Six is "The Meaning of Judgement." And the concluding session is "The Last Supper and the Mandatum" (New Commandment).

Seven Appendices conclude the book: Solemnities and Feasts in Lent, Lectionary Cycle Calendar, The Books of the Old Testament of the Various Biblical Traditions, Small Group Study Guidelines, an Ash Wednesday Liturgy, a Maundy Thursday Liturgy, and a Bibliography.

Jeff Lea writes, "Far too many gay women and men continue to view the primary Christian scripture, the Holy Bible, as a document hostile to people whose expression of intimate love is homosexual. Nothing can be further from the truth. While the Bible does condemn the ritualistic abuse of human sexuality it does not ever express a view of same-sex love as an abomination. In fact it affirms it in the love story of Jonathan and David.

"The Bible's primary message is Love. To love God, ourselves, and each other as God has loved us. The Bible is not a handbook on how to hate sin. It is a transcript of the ongoing love story between God and the people of God.

"Lent is the primary renewing and penitential season of the Church year. It is the time of personal examination and purification before we enter into the Paschal mystery on Easter Sunday. We are at the door to salvation during this time. Gay people are also at that door and we too have an experience of conversion and faith. These meditations present the point of view of a gay male Christian exploring the liminal experience of coming out gay, coming out Christian, and discovering affirmation in the Bible. The book provides both a daily meditation on the scriptural readings for Lent, and a seven-week group study that explores penance from a positive gay perspective."

"For Another Flock: Rainbow Meditations and Study Guide for Lent" is spiral bound, 5 ½" x 8 ½", 104 pages, and sells for $10.95 each, $8.95 each for six or more copies, plus shipping and handling.

5. "Christian with a Twist"

Here is a selection from our second major book of reflections, "Christian with a Twist: Reflections on Scripture that are a bit more inclusive, a bit more relevant, and with a bit of a bite," by the late William Gaston.

"Christian with a Twist" is available for $19.95 each,

$14.95 each for six or more copies, plus shipping and handling. You can read more about it and order it at http://www.chirhopress.com/products/product_details/BookRevChristianWithATwist.htm

As the subtitle suggests, Bill's writing has a bit of a bite, and we believe you will enjoy his sharp, but loving take on Scripture, life, and faith.

Here is a selection entitled "Timidly We Seek Him" from the Epiphany section of "Christian with a Twist."

Please read Matthew 2:1-4, 7-12

Are we like the wise men? Do we boldly and without wavering seek to encounter Jesus in our lives? Or are we a bit timid in our faith journey? Do we waste a lot of valuable time either trying to avoid Herod or getting into fights with him? Maybe we get overly involved in theological points with the priests and scribes. I catch myself in that last little trick every so often!

Sometimes we actually blame God for our not finding Jesus. Why does God not give us a star like the wise men, or at least a heavenly host to lead us away from the flock and into the light?

Jesus does not seem to be sleeping under a bright light these days. Sometimes he is not even in church.

Wonderful as church can be, it is a place to prepare for the journey, not the final destination. Men and women wiser than we keep mentioning that we will find Jesus in the faces of strangers, or maybe friends and family. Maybe sometimes we do see him there, but we do not want to tell anyone. You never know where that boogey man Herod might be lurking. He might hurt Jesus, or make fun of our childlike vision.

It is a tough world we live in. We need a messiah with a sword, a mighty king! God keeps just sending us Love, childlike love. If Jesus would just appear all grown up and strong instead of vulnerable and human … then we could seek him boldly and tell the whole world when we found him. We would give him our treasure too, if we were sure he could take care of it.

6. Sanctoral Cycle

As a regular feature in the Chi Rho Connection, we are offering up traditional saints listed in the 2006 Liturgical Calendar and Lectionary from today until our next scheduled electronic newsletter.

*****

Wed., Jan. 18, St. Abraham Kidunaia. Prayer for sinners:

It is extremely sad that we do not pray daily. Every man and woman is created to glorify God daily through prayer.

"They who cause a sinner to be converted from the error of their way shall save their soul from death and shall cover a multitude of sins" (James 5:20).

Thurs., Jan. 19, St. Wulfstan. Striving for daily

perfection: Only a few are called to serve God by great actions or gifts, but we are all bound to follow St. Wulfstan's example by striving to be perfect in our daily very ordinary lives. "A Christian must desire perfection, or s/he sins," St. Jerome.

Fri., Jan. 20, St. Sebastian (Patron saint: athletes).

Faith fever: St. Sebastian was a soldier, not a priest nor a religious, yet he firmly believed that even in very ordinary occupations, you will be given the opportunity to work for the faith. "The devil strains every nerve to secure the souls which belong to Christ. We should not grudge our toil in wresting them from the tyrant, and giving them back to God," St.

Sebastian.

Sat., Jan. 21, St. Agnes (Patron saint: girls). Keeping

innocence: Agnes was endeared to Christ for her innocence.

When we keep our hearts pure with love for Christ, He will renew our youth and give us back the years we have wasted.

"He set a seal upon my face, that I might admit no love but His. He pledged my troth with the ring of faith, and adorned me with a necklace of beauty. Having loved Him, I am chaste; having touched Him, I am pure; having received Him, I am maiden," Responsorial of St. Agnes'

office.

Sun., Jan. 22, St. Vincent of Saragossa. Trust in Christ:

If you want to be at peace amidst temptations and suffering, then make it your personal goal to grow in your prayer life and your closeness to Christ. Have confidence in Him. "I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble, but take heart, I have overcome the world" (John 16:33).

Mon., Jan. 23, St. Ildephonsus. Love of the Blessed

Virgin: None of us could stand to hear lies about our mother. We should likewise not hear with indifference those about the Mary, Jesus' mother. "Virgin Mother of God, may I cleave to God and to you, wait on your Lord and on you, serve your son and you; Christ as my maker, you as the mother of my maker, Him as the Lord of Hosts, you as the handmaid of the Lord, Him as God, you as the mother of my God," St. Ildephonsus.

Diversity Date: Commemoration: Thomas A. Dorsey, father of contemporary gospel music.

Tues., Jan. 24, St. Francis de Sales (Patron saint:

authors and editors, hearing impaired). Gentleness:

You can catch more flies with a teaspoon of honey than a hundred barrels of vinegar. "Were there anything better on earth than gentleness, Jesus Christ would have taught it to us; and yet He has given us only two lessons to learn of Him to be meek and humble of heart,"

St. Francis de Sales. "Pleasant words are a honeycomb, sweet to the soul and healing to the bones" (Proverbs 16:24).

Wed., Jan. 25, St. Polycarp (Patron saint: ear and ear problems). Zealousness: "But every spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus is not from God" (1 John 4:3). When the false teacher Marcion met St. Polycarp in Rome, he asked the aged bishop if he knew him. "Yes," Polycarp answered, "I know you for the firstborn of Satan." These were strange and harsh words from a gentle man. He hated false teaching. "Be firm and immovable in the faith.

Love the brethren. Be affectionate to one another, being bound together in the truth," St. Polycarp

Thurs., Jan. 26, St. Paula. Love of Jesus: Paula's love for Jesus was stronger than the love of her own son, whose tears were unable to weaken her resolve to live and die in Bethlehem, where Jesus was born. When she first saw the grotto where He was born, she exclaimed, "I salute you, Bethlehem, the 'house of bread' wherein was born that living bread who came down from heaven."

Fri., Jan 27, St. John Chrysostom (Patron saint: orators, preachers). Attending church: To those who objected that they could pray at home, Chrysostom replied that of course they could. But, he went on, not so well as in church in the company of fellow Christians; there the worshippers'

voices go up with one accord. "In every place incense and pure offerings will be brought to my name, because my name will be great among the nations, says the Lord Almighty" (Malachi 1:11).

Sat., Jan. 28, St. Peter Nolasco. Salvation of others:

St. Peter and his soldier-knights of the Mercedarian Order for the redemption of captives were laymen who believed that the salvation of others was entrusted to them. We can all help each other with advice, prayer, but above all, by good example and assist the salvation of our friends and neighbors and thereby help with our own.

Sun., Jan. 29, St. Timothy (Patron saint: people with stomach disorders). Bible reading: Timothy was a great reader and lover of sacred scripture! To his very dying hour, he remembered St. Paul's warning to him to "attend to his reading." "Those who live in the world should persevere in coming to church to hear sermons, and should remember to read spiritual books," St. Philip Neri. "Until I come, devote yourself to the public reading of scripture, to preaching and to teaching"

(1 Timothy 4:13).

Mon., Jan. 30, Bd. Sebastian Valfre. Serving faithfully:

"Do you know what it means by our being servants of God?

It means that we are bound to be concerned for God's interests more than our own; extending God's supreme dominion over us to all our actions, inward and outward; to our health, our life, our death; to our reputation and credit, to talents, riches, and goods," Bd. Sebastian Valfre.

Diversity Date: Commemoration: Mohandas K. Gandhi

Tues., Jan. 31, St. John Bosco (Patron saint: boys, editors). Love the children: We are called by Christ to love and care for children, not just our own, but others' as well. Love may call for strictness towards them, but that strictness must always be kind and never rough. "Anything that a child regards as a punishment may be used as such. A word of praise to one who deserves it, a word of rebuke to one who has forgotten himself, may often be a real reward or a real punishment,"

St. John Bosco.
