Bishop Rickel’s 10 Rules for Respect

10 rules for respect featured I every Letter of Agreement Bishop Rickel has with congregations, and now with the Diocese of Olympia he has asked that the “10 Rules for Respect” spelled out below be made part of the agreement. He first saw these in an article by Church of the Nazarene pastor Charles Christian. He believes that they are quite helpful in framing our communication and life together.

He vows to do his best to follow them and invites you to do the same. We will all fail, but through gentle challenge and loving encouragement these can become a foundation for healthy communication for us all.

Faith’s Bishop’s Committee also uses this model as a rule for how we conduct our business and are in relationship with one another.

Email Scam/Hoax Hit Local Churches

Scam Hoax 2 St. Bede’s was recently targeted by an email scam/hoax. The scammer sent an email to their congregation requesting them to purchase iTune gift cards to be sent electronically. A member of their congregation lost about $400 dollars.

The scammer created an email address with the Vicars name and title (as found on their website) then emailed people posing as the Vicar. A volunteer who was subbing for the church thought it was from the Vicar and paid $400 for the iTunes gift cards.

Hospitality

Greetings Faith Family!

Bredesen Sheri At our Annual Meeting, we introduced Sheri Bredesen ((360) 930-4370 This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.) to the congregation. She graciously volunteered to organize our special events and after Sunday service hospitality. We all enjoy that time together. Here’s a bit about the history of this ministry and its traditions.

Pastoral Letter from Bishop Rickel

(Spanish version)

To all the good people of the Diocese of Olympia,

This past summer, at our General Convention in Austin, Texas, the Episcopal Church took some historic and much needed steps in addressing past abuses by clergy toward lay persons and toward other clergy in the church. For far too long there has been too much silence, and often misdirection, when persons in our church were brave enough to bring such allegations forward. I am writing this letter, and asking that it be read in every congregation, on Sunday January 6th and/or January 11th, in order to make you aware of the implementation of one specific resolution from General Convention, namely, D034, which called for the lifting of the statutes of limitations as spelled out in Title IV.19.4 of the Constitution and Canons of the Episcopal Church specifically as it relates to sexual misconduct of clergy. That three year period of suspension begins on January 1, 2019 and will run until December 31, 2021.
