Climate Conversations: Investing With Your Values
TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 5:30–6:30 P.M., via Zoom only
Join sustainable investment profession Penelope Jackson and freelance writer and financial consultant Richard Hartung for November's Climate Conversations: Investing With Your Values. Investors have traditionally considered risk and the return on their funds when they decided where to invest their funds. Now, though, investors are increasingly considering environmental risks and sustainability when they invest. Investing with the principles of creation care enables us to use our Christian faith and support for conservation when we invest our funds, whether we have a little money or a lot. Penelope and Richard will discuss the principles behind sustainable investing and creation care along with what scripture says about investing, how to select investments in line with creation care, and the benefits of this type of investing. Learn about the previous events in the Climate Conversations series here, and register here for the Zoom link for this and all of the monthly Climate Conversations.

SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 1:30–4 P.M., meet at Carkeek Park trailhead, 6th Ave. NW and NW 100th Pl., rain or shine.
The next intergeneration hike will explore Carkeek Park, near Northgate. The trailhead is accessible on public transit via the D line or #28 bus from downtown, or the #40 bus from Northgate light rail. After meeting at the trailhead, the group will follow Pipers Creek, which a group of citizen activists have restored as an active salmon run. The the trail passes one of Seattle's early farmsteads, where old apple trees still bear fruit. Some people could walk straight to the beach while others can turn up the South Ridge Trail and lengthen the hike from 1.5 to 2 miles. At the beach there is a wonderful bridge over the railroad tracks and a small but interesting beach to walk on (maybe a train will go by!). The group will find a spot on the beach to gather for singing and prayer and reflection. More information will be posted here as it becomes available. RSVP to Canon Barrie.

EV Charging Station Update

Please do not share the code with others.

World Premiere at Compline This Sunday
The anthem at Compline on the evening of November 30 will be the premiere of Love Never Ends, a new work written especially for the Compline Choir by Alice Parker (b. 1925), a towering figure in American choral music for over fifty years. Parker is best known for her arrangements of spirituals and folk songs, but her original compositions display a compelling and idiosyncratic voice. The Compline Choir has championed her work for many years, particularly her anthem The Good Shepherd, included on the choir's most recent CD, and Beloved, let us love one another, which will also be sung at Compline this Sunday. The Compline Choir previously commissioned Parker to write a work, Love One Another, which premiered in October of 2019. Love Never Ends, the new work, is a setting of the famous passage from 1 Corinthians ("Love is patient; love is kind..."), and is dedicated to the Rev. Canon Pat Taylor. This commission was made possible by the generosity of choir member Paul Johns. Attend the service in person, or join via livestream or the KING-FM radio broadcast.

Forward Day by Day Now Available
Forward Day by Day is a daily devotional published quarterly by Forward Movement, containing scripture, reflections, and prompts to prayer for each day of the year. For many years at Saint Mark's issues were made available (in both pocket-size and large-print version) to anyone who wanted one, in the rear of the nave. At this time there is no longer a place for them in the nave, so the new issue (covering November, December, and January), is now available just inside the office entrance, on the table beneath the community bulletin board. This resource is made available to the community through the generosity of anonymous parishioners.

FROM OUR COMMUNITY
Shaken to the Core: Restoring Faith in Psychotherapy
FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 6:45 A.M. to 12:30 P.M. Pacific Time, online
Sallie Crotty, a Saint Mark's Parishioner and author of the award-winning book Out of the Ashes: A Story of Recovery and Hope, will be one of the featured presenters at the 31st annual Psychotherapy and Faith Conference, titled Shaken to the Core: Restoring Faith in Psychotherapy. The conference overview reads: “This is a forum for mental health professionals and faith community leaders to discuss spirituality and faith in the context of mental health and clinical practice. Our contemporary plight brings the challenges of faith to the forefront, with the loss, grief, and stress of the pandemic; social-political divisions and the erosion of trust in governmental institutions; and the looming crises of climate change. These collective challenges compound the personal shattering of faith that brings many patients to psychotherapy: such betrayal in important relationships felt as desecrations that engender spiritual struggles. This year's conference will turn the spotlight on elucidating patients’ and therapists’ struggles with faith, based on the premise that therapists are best positioned to support and guide their patients when therapists have reckoned with their own challenges with trust, hope, and faith.” CEUs available for medical and mental health professionals. Learn more and find the link to register here.

OFFERINGS FROM ELSEWHERE
Exploring the Doctrine of Discovery:
A Course by Mary Crist
A four-week Zoom-based course sponsored by Bexley-Seabury Seminary
SUNDAYS, JANUARY 15 through FEBRUARY 12, 2023, 4–5:30 P.M. PST. Fee: $50 per person (Saint Mark’s can offer financial assistance to those for whom the fee is a hardship)
Everyone is welcome in this course. Through your journey in a multi-media web quest, you will find out the thinking behind the Doctrine of Discovery, how it was justified by Christian church leaders, what happened to the people it touched, how it continues to affect Indigenous people worldwide today, and what hope there is for Indigenous people in the future. You will hear Indigenous voices again and again, something that is unusual in Doctrine of Discovery courses. You will learn how the connection with the land and with Creator has given Indigenous people the spiritual resilience we have today as survivors of the Doctrine of Discovery. Several Saint Mark's members participated in the previous iteration of this course and recommend it highly. Deadline to register is January 7, 2023. See a detailed syllabus and register here.
