Washington to close prison on McNeil Island
State officials said Friday they will close the McNeil Island Corrections Center on April 1, the third Department of Corrections prison to close in the past year as officials grapple with a growing budget deficit.
Associated Press
State officials said Friday they will close the McNeil Island Corrections Center on April 1, the third Department of Corrections prison to close in the past year as officials grapple with a growing budget deficit.
The McNeil Island prison is the least efficient in the state, in part because it is on an island, Corrections Secretary Eldon Vail said.
"This will save the most money without compromising the safety of our staff, the offenders and the public," he said.
The approximately 500 inmates at the prison near Steilacoom in south Puget Sound will be scattered among the remaining 12 institutions.
McNeil Island is also home to the state's Special Commitment Center, where sexually violent predators are indefinitely held for treatment after completing their prison sentences. That center is operated by the Department of Social and Health Services and will remain open, prison spokesman Chad Lewis said.
Costs to operate ferries, barges and fire boats to McNeil Island will shift to DSHS, and service will likely be reduced when the prison closes, the Corrections Department said.
On Thursday, state officials learned the budget deficit for the rest of the fiscal year had swelled by an additional $385 million to more than $900 million. The 2011-2013 deficit is now pegged at about $5.7 billion out of a roughly $33 billion general fund.
Corrections must reduce spending by nearly $53 million this fiscal year as a result of 6 percent across-the-board cuts due to declining tax revenue. Earlier this week, the agency conducted a one-day lockdown of state prisons as a way to reduce salary costs. Such lockdowns will occur once a month.
Vail said additional cuts to the agency would be difficult to achieve.
"I don't have any more fat or deadwood or waste or fraud in my agency," Vail said.
He didn't rule out the closure of more prisons in the future, although he said the state's prison population has been on the decline.
There are a few hundred free beds at the other state prisons, he said. If those became full, he would prefer to contract with other states to house prisoners rather than crowd Washington prisons, Vail said.
McNeil Island was a federal prison from 1875 until it closed in 1976. The state leased it from the federal government and reopened the prison in 1981. The federal prison's most famous inmates include Robert Stroud, the "Birdman of Alcatraz," who was held there from 1909-12, and Charles Manson, who was an inmate from 1961-66 for trying to cash a forged government check.
The Corrections Department had originally planned to close Larch Corrections Center near Vancouver, but found that would not save enough money. The agency will save $6.3 million a year by closing McNeil Island, compared to $2 million by closing Larch.
In the past year, McNeil Island has been reduced from a a medium-security prison with 1,200 offenders to a minimum-security prison with 515 offenders. There are about 245 staff members.
"We will do all we possibly can to find them positions elsewhere in the agency," Vail said. There are five prisons within a 90-minute drive of Steilacoom, the agency said.
This is the third prison the agency, which houses some 16,000 inmates, has closed within a year. Two minimum-security prisons, Ahtanum View Corrections Center in Yakima and Pine Lodge Corrections Center for Women near Spokane, previously closed.
Larch Corrections Center will return to full capacity and house 480 offenders. It currently houses about 240 offenders.

COMING UP ROSES: Kristen Stewart turned heads at the Chanel couture show on Tuesday with her newly shorn locks. The actress, who stars in ads for Chanel's Métiers d'Art Paris-Dallas collection, said she just got the chop that morning.
"I'm ultimately going to go a little bit shorter for this next film that I'm going to do called 'Equals,' but I figured, you know, before I went all the way — might as well just play around with something for the show," she said, adding that the orange color was a leftover from her most recent shoot, "American Ultra."
Stewart will star with Nicholas Hoult in "Equals," billed as a futuristic love story, and confessed she is nervous before each new shoot. "That's the feeling that I look for. That's everything that drives me. You know — and a lot of people say this — but if you're not a little afraid of what you're doing, it's probably not worthwhile," she remarked.
However, the "Twilight" star has gotten over her initial fear of working with French actress Juliette Binoche on "Sils Maria," which premiered at the Cannes Film Festival in May. The two will be reunited soon on "The Big Shoe."
"The intimidation level is down a bit, but now I feel like we need to up our games because it's, like, the second go. I'm so excited. She's become one of my favorite people in the world," Stewart said.

The EU's flagship plan to integrate electricity markets across the bloc by 2014 is facing major delays, the director of pan-European regulator body ACER, Alberto Pototschnig, warned on Tuesday.
But despite the setback, it also emerged that both Poland and Romania are to join the Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) market coupling project, despite Poland's previous assertion that its involvement would be conditional upon Germany also signing up.
The North Western Europe (NWE) day-ahead market coupling project, which was expected to begin operations this month, may not start until November or December, Pototschnig said.
And NWE intra-day coupling, which has also been eyeing a start date at some point this quarter, is also now facing a delay, and is not expected to start until the third quarter at the earliest, ACER's director said.
The schemes have been dogged by multiple issues that are behind the delays, Pototschnig told an energy conference in Brussels.
The delays could also hamper the deeper penetration of renewables into the European power generation mix, Pototschnig told ICIS, because "intra-day market coupling is vital for integration of renewable energy sources" across the continent.
Pototschnig added that the official starting date for both market coupling schemes will be announced shortly.
Inge Bernaerts, who heads one of the European Commission's energy units, said the coming months will be crucial if 2014 targets are to be met.
European energy commissioner Gunther Ottinger urged member states to implement the third energy package.
"It is imperative that the rules in place [third package, REMIT and soon the infrastructure regulation] are correctly implemented by member states. And then it falls to the regulators to make sure that they are properly enforced," Ottinger added.
According to the president of transmission system operators group ENTSO-E, Daniel Dobbeni, infrastructure development was one of the main challenges facing the integration project.
"Back in 2006 we thought infrastructure would have been sufficient to support integration," he said. But renewables grew quicker than anticipated, and the development of supporting infrastructure failed to keep pace, he added.
Participants mentioned issues raised by high volumes of renewable generation in Germany, which have created problematic loop-flows in neighbouring countries including Poland and Czech Republic, forcing operators to curtail clean power generation, which in turn led to financial payments as compensation for the curtailment.
It is believed that cross-border infrastructure regulation will play a vital role in speeding up the permitting process for new infrastructure, reducing the permitting time from an average of 10 years to around 3-4 years (see EDEM 18 December 2013).
Michael Goodwin, the representative of the Irish presidency of the European council, told the Brussels conference that speeding up and supporting new infrastructure would be one of the priorities of the council in 2013.
In a separate development, it emerged that Poland and Romania are to join Czech Republic, Slovakia and Hungary in the CEE electricity market coupling project.
The announcement followed a meeting on Monday between the CEE region's energy regulators, grid operators, and energy exchanges including OTE, CEPS, SEPS, MAVIR, PSE, HUPX, TGE and OPCOM.
Hungary coupled its day-ahead prices with Czech Republic and Slovakia in September.
A joint statement from the CEE region's transmission system operators said the market coupling project had been beneficial for participants, and described extending the scheme to Poland and Romania as a "logical step forward."
Poland's call to take the plunge came in spite of its previous insistence that it would not sign up without involvement from Germany (see EDEM 4 January 2013). MM/KB

A Personal Experience.
My roots in speaking come into play by understanding that leadership is not rooted in the small individual definition that most people hold themselves to be. Each of us is a much larger presence when rooted in the very intuition referenced by Albert Einstein. Personal honors mean little in a world of intuitive awareness.
What I believe separates me from other leadership speakers is the nesting of my message in personal experience. It's that richness in intimacy that allows for a much more impactful talk. When I speak to you as an audience, my main goal is that you will feel the experience and the intuitive framework that forms this bigger picture called Awakened Leadership.
Over the years I have listened to the wisdom of the seasoned leaders that surrounded me. By listening carefully to the words of my peers and mentors, I was able grasp and understand that there was something much bigger in the exercise of leadership that most understood. My hope is that you get the adequate information you need to make the best decision possible.
Distilling the Leadership Challenge
The leadership world today is bubbling with new and continuing discoveries related to the internal maturity of our leaders. While this literature is replete with observation, there are few voices of those who have actually walked the path. As a result, there is much confusion when undertaking the leadership challenge for organizations.
I share with audiences that the first major question today's executives must answer if they wish to instill a lasting brand of leadership – whether to develop the maturity of their people, or to install a variety of systems and procedures that do nothing to foster personal development.
By sharing stories from my book Awakened Leadership, I help people to:
- Break free from the reactive behaviors that hold them back
- Understand the difference between distributing content and "holding space"
- Discover their need for personal maturity so they become the best leaders they can be
Here's What Others Are Saying
"There's a new tide rising in the world of leadership. It's built upon the realization that strategies, techniques and processes that don't begin at the level of personal awakening serve as little more than band-aids on the corpus of the status quo. Awakened Leadership is a rally cry to go deeper and get more personal, then watch the shift that happens on an individual level ripple out to the organization."
"If, as Alan Shelton, asserts, awakening is akin to enlightenment, then every business person (and even those not in the corporate arena) should read this book. Awakened Leadership represents a bright new day in an otherwise dark world."
"There are books about leadership, and books about spiritual enlightenment, but Awakened Leadership uniquely manages to be both. That blend is vital at a time when only higher consciousness can find adequate solutions to civilization's massive challenges. That Shelton also delivers a compelling memoir makes the book a trifecta of pleasure, insight and practicality."
"Alan helped me gain understanding about my true nature. Call it enlightenment, profound insight, or self-actualization, it is a shift that transformed my life."

Louie Vega
Thursday, April 1, the Church, 303-832-3528.
New York's Louie Vega has matured into a man of far-reaching musical talent. Best known in house-music circles as one half of the famed production duo Masters at Work (he and partner Kenny "Dope" Gonzales are also known as Nu Yorican Soul), Vega recently dropped the "Little" nickname he's had since he was a kid -- just in time for the release of his debut solo full-length, Elements of Life. Recorded over the past few years, it captures the joys felt by Vega and his relatively new family: wife Anané, a singer from Cape Verde who appears on the album, and four-year-old son Nico. It's an impressive, comprehensive exploration of Latin American music that should satisfy longtime fans while allowing Vega to break out of the house confines and into new musical territory. But don't worry: The success of that project hasn't made him any less vital in his role as DJ -- or in his ability to foster a sweaty, fun time. -- Tamara Palmer
Immortal Technique
Thursday, April 1, Boulder Theater, 303-786-7030.
Peruvian-born, Harlem-based MC Immortal Technique is not buying the Bush administration's blueprint for a new world order. Accusing the current regime of all sorts of politricks on his new record Revolution Vol. 2, this NYC underground battle vet traffics in topical terrain similar to that explored by agitprop rappers the Coup and Dead Prez. His take on 9/11 and the situation in Iraq has generated a buzz that recalls the heady days of Public Enemy welcoming folks to the Terrordome. Lines like "You might have some house niggas fooled, but I understand colonialism is sponsored by corporations/That's why Halliburton gets paid to rebuild nations" and "Condoleezza Rice is a new-age Sally Hemmings" transcend the cliched bumper-sticker slogans that too often pass for political protest music. Immortal Technique's fierce verbal jabs pack the power of a young Mike Tyson as he proves himself a worthy heir to Chuck D's lyrical legacy. His Boulder Theater show will include a Colorado MC Battle hosted by Black Pegasus, Dent and Lazy Eyez, with DJ Inka One on the turntables. -- James Mayo
Friday, April 2, Rock Island, 303-572-7625.
While some bands try to downplay their musical influences, Stereotyperider has never been shy about where its sound -- and heart -- comes from. The Phoenix-based quartet formed in 1999 from the remnants of Mandingo and Adam's Alcoholics, two of Arizona's most popular pop-punk acts. Its debut long-player, Same Chords, Same Songs, Same Six Strings, appeared in 2002 on Denver's own Suburban Home imprint, and the name said it all: The disc was a formidable slab of straight-up, no-bullshit punk with hints of post-hardcore sinew and indie-rock IQ. It's no surprise, then, that Stereotyprider is putting out a new EP called Under the Influence. The record sports seven faithful and loving renditions of songs pulled directly from the band's '80s and '90s roots (the Cure, Archers of Loaf, Fugazi, the Pixies, Seaweed, the Descendents and Quicksand) and is way the hell more sincere and powerful than similar tribute albums from the past few years -- like, for instance, Face to Face's lame Standards & Practices. Suburban Home intends Under the Influence to be the first in a series of CDs in which punk bands pay ear-splitting homage to their forebears (Planes Mistaken for Stars is slated for the second volume). See Stereotyprider sweat to the oldies with Dartanian, Cost of Living and the Reddmen this Friday. If you heckle 'em hard enough, maybe they'll bust out some Living Colour. --Jason Heller
Throw Rag
Sunday, April 4, Bluebird Theater, 303-322-2308, and Monday, April 5, Mesa Theatre, Grand Junction 1-970-241-1717.
It has been said that Imperial County resembles the razor-sharp edge of the end of the world -- a desolate blight on the Southern California coast where the desert disintegrates into the ocean by way of an outstretched strip of stinking saline called the Salton Sea. It's a soured spot of land where cheap whiskey and souped-up Camaros reign supreme and old aluminum Airstreams are called home; it's also the birthplace of "sailor rock" and its creator, Throw Rag. A collaboration of six seamen who sound like Mike Ness in a tainted love tryst with the Cramps, Throw Rag plays the kind of all-American bacon-and-grease-flavored rock and roll that will have you pickin' the gristle outta your teeth for days. Driven by the tarnished voodoo howlings of Captain Sean Doe and the frantic strum of a tattooed salty dog named Jacko, the band released its second album, Desert Shores, last year on BYO Records and has since toured nearly non-stop with the likes of the Supersuckers, the Misfits and Flogging Molly. Shores takes cowpunk and rockabilly and cuisinarts them into beefy little appetizers. Witness the cover of Johnny Kidd's "Please Don't Touch" (which could easily wrassle with the classic rendition from past tour-mates Motörhead), or "Mission's Message," which has a washboard-and-cowbell solo by Jacko so meaty it could clog an artery.

Then we'd put in about a quarter of a cup of batter, swirl it to coat the pan, and pour out the excess. When the batter pulled away from the sides of the pan, we'd turn the pan over and tap the crepe out onto a cloth towel, lining them up and overlapping a little. Then more butter, more batter..... After the batter was all cooked, then we'd fill the crepes. Since only one side had been cooked, we'd fill that side, roll and fold them, put them into a buttered pan, and bake them. Thus the outside got cooked also. > > Haven't made those since my mom died in 1965. Probably have lost the touch.... Very interesting. It sounds like we're seeing, with cultural flags planted, where blintzes veer off from blini. It was my understanding that among Christian Russians, when you say "blini" what is usually meant is a small, yeast-and-egg-raised buckwheat pancake, often served with sour cream, melted butter, and caviar, and not filled before serving... What you're describing sounds more like what most people would call a blintz (also cannelloni). Unless blini is just the plural of blintz? It never even occurred to me until now to wonder to what extent the words "blintz" and "blini" were related...

TCAPS Kindergarten Program
A recently enacted Michigan law amended the Revised School Code (MCL 380.1147), which changed the minimum age requirement for a child enrolling in kindergarten. Previously, a student had to be five years old by December 1st to be eligible for enrollment to kindergarten. New legislation changed the "cut‐off" date which will be gradually phased‐in over three years; changing the requirement by one month each year. The changes will be implemented in the following manner:
Parent Enrollment Request Option
If the child is not eligible for enrollment per the guidelines specified above and will be five years old by December 1st, the child's parent or legal guardian can complete an Enrollment Request Form to enroll their student in school. Enrollment Request Form deadlines and other information are as follows:
Questions regarding enrollment should be directed to Mary Beth Stein at firstname.lastname@example.com or 231.933.1718.

Wolf Pack Athletic Director of Athletics Cary Groth announced Tuesday
that due to the downturn in the economy and its effect on Wolf Pack fans, the University of Nevada will postpone its plan to re-seat Lawlor Events Center. Nevada had originally planned to re-seat the arena for men's basketball games in 2009-10 using its priority points system but will now postpone that plan indefinitely and re-evaluate its direction
"We have listened to our fans and decided to postpone our re-seating plan," Groth said. "The economy has had a tremendous effect on all of us on a national, state and local level, and everyone, including the university and, in turn, the athletics department, is facing severe cutbacks and financial uncertainty. Our program has grown to where we are because of our fans and their generosity. While generating external revenue is more important then ever for us, we need to be there for our fans and understand the economic challenges they face as well."
While the re-seating plan is postponed indefinitely, donors will continue to receive priority points for their contributions.
For more information about basketball seating and giving to athletics, please call Nevada's Associate Athletics Director for External Operations Rory Hickok at (775) 784-6900.

Shawnee County District Attorney Robert Hecht says Hall pleaded guilty to first degree murder, aggravated indecent liberties with a child, sexual intercourse and criminal desecration of a body.
Hecht says Hall also was convicted in a home invasion and hammer attack on a Topeka couple about the same time as the Winter murder. The charges in that case included attempted first degree murder and aggravated robbery.
Hecht says he will seek a life sentence for hall in the Winter murder and the maximum sentence for the other crimes.

text: Exclusive Audio: Harvard Anti-Israel Conference: The Jewish People Does Not Exist Print article Send a Tip by Joel B. Pollak 4 Mar 2012 post a comment Anti-Israel activists who have gathered this weekend at Harvard University's "One State Conference" were told yesterday that the Jewish people do not exist. Prof. Susan M. Akram of Boston University's School of Law told the gathering that there is no legal basis for Jewish self-determination--at all: Israel's claim of a state, on the basis of exclusive and discriminatory rights to Jews [sic], has never been juridically recognized. In other words, the concept of the Jewish people as a national entity with extraterritorial claims has never been recognized under international law. Similar denials of the Jewish people's existence and rights enabled the Holocaust, the murder of six million Jews by the Nazi regime in the mid-twentieth century. The conference at President Barack Obama's alma mater, which features Chicago-based extremist--and former Obama acquaintance--Ali Abunimah, coincides with Obama's address earlier today to the American Israel Public Affairs Committee policy conference in Washington, DC.

|I was wonering if a Fir tree would work where I live. I dont believe I've ever seen one here (except on a christams tree lot) so I think that the conventional wisdom is "no". But then again - I'm not conventionally wise.
I live in Central Texas, which is zone 8. And I'm not thinking of the plain species tree, rather a cultivated dwarf or intermediate. It could be a container plant on the back patio, or in a bed in the front yard in part sun -or full sun but not in the sun during the hottest part of the day.
I know the concolor does pretty well in heat, but Id be pushing it. I saw a reference to abies firma being good for the southeast - so it would probably be better for me. Although my climate is a little different than the States / areas I think of as the 'Southeast'. It is less humid, less rainfall than say Houston, just 3 hours to the east. But not nearly as arid as the southwest. Sometimes its wet and humid, but we do get periods of significant drought. But I dont stop watering the lawn and garden just because we're having a drought or running out of water.
Problem is - I dont think there are very many cultivated varities of the Japanese Fir that Im interested in - none as far as I can see. Does anyone know of one that is compact, globose, or mounding - dwarf or intermediate?
Or could I push the limits of the abies concolor heat and humidity tolerance. Or just scrap this plan alltogether?
Follow-Up Postings:
|Firs are an alpine conifer. Prolonged heat and humidity will do them in. Hard to impossible to grow south of zone 5. Yes there are some exceptions but I won't go there.
My advice is to forget it.
- Posted by tcharles26 usa texas (My Page) on Sun, Oct 15, 06 at 21:43
|Well, thanks for the response. I feared that would be the answer. Is this the consensus on the board I wonder?
I found an article written by a professor at the vocational school in college station, Texas. It said that abies concolor will grow in cooler parts of zone 7 in Texas. Not my zone, but definitely not zone 5.
I'm not trying to be the belligerent contrarian, but Ive seen phots of healthy dwarf alberta spruce trees growing in Florida Zone 9.
|It's probably the warm nights and humidity. The champion tree for Washington grows here locally where the average high temperature in late July is in the 90's, but then the humidity is very low and the nights cool down to high 50s and low 60s.
Have you considered the blue China Fir (Cunninghamia lanceolata)? Or is that what you mean by Japanese Fir?
|Pasadena is right. Firs need low humidity and a chance to cool down at night. If they don't have this they usually last 1-2 years. My last one expired this summer after trying several different micro climate locations to grow them in. Again high humidity and nights in the 80's was something they could not adjust to.
|Not a true fir, but very similar (and closely related), is Keteleeria davidiana. That will do well in Texas conditions.
No dwarf cultivars, though. However, if you got a kilogram of seed and sow them all, there's a good chance of finding a new dwarf, and you could eventually make a fortune propagating it for sale to other fir-starved southerners. But first get your kg of Keteleeria seeds . . .
|I've seen a Colorado Blue Spruce growing in Ft. Worth (Z-7).
The tree has afternoon shade and is doing ok, but growth is very slow and color just so-so. Owner stated they wouldn't do it again.
I've seen several deodar cedar that looked nice, but no fir trees.
|Dave: I have to protest your restriction of firs to zone 5 or cooler. Here is VA, Z6, we have some fine fir trees in the VA Arboretum. Nordmann, pinsapo, holophylla, and a number of others. Some of these are over 70 years old, and a few are so large you can't get your arms around them--not even close.
One of my pet peeves is that no one around here offers any fir trees for sale, except every once in a while. In the last three years I have seen Nordmann and Korean only and I go to every nursury within 50 miles and some over 100 miles from here.
At the National Arboretum--hotter than here and close to Z7 if not in it, the star performer now is an Abies Numidica--now why in h--- can't I get one!!! I ask a specialty nursury that boasts about the variety of trees they offer, to get some fir trees and I am told "they won't grow here." H---, man, go to an arboretum or two and open your blankety blank eyes for g--'s sake. Such ignorance stupifies me!!
One of the worst examples I came across of this kind was when I went to the "tree expert" at our local Meadows Farms nursury here in the DC area a few years ago. They had a site on route 50 just outside DC. I asked if they had any Norway spruce trees. They said they did not carry them because spruce trees would not grow in such a hot climate. The place was surrounded on two sides by a chain link fence, and just beyond that fence on the same two sides were rows of Norway spruce trees 60 to 75 feet tall. They were full, wonderfully green, and had that beautiful weeping foliage so typical of the best Norway spruce. And here is this twerp telling me with a straight face that they wouldn't grow there. I just about fell on my face right there. Believe me, I am not making this up! Where do these establishmants find these people and why do they give them jobs? I am completely boggilified!
|I've been growing an Abies pinsapo in a container for 2 years now. It seems to be doing fine. It gets regular water and remains in shade or dappled shade. I really would like to know what rootstock it has been grafted onto. I bought it from a private collector via ebay.
You could try an African podocarpus. I bought a 5 gallon at Red Barn in Austin last fall and it has done remarkably well.
|Spruceman, I feel your pain. The Meadows Farm guy also told me that firs don't do well here -- close to truth than spruces, but still not entirely correct. Even the A. balsamea at the National Arb is in beautiful shape -- it's one of their lushest, best-looking firs. I've got a bunch in containers on my patio. I've resorted to mail ordering.
|Spruceman. Remember in my first post to this thread I said there are some exceptions. There are and I can name several even in KC just as you have in other parts of the country. In the midwest the climate is not conducive to grow Abies here. In some Zone 6 areas where heat and humidity aren't so opressive I am sure that in certain micro climate areas Abies will do just fine. My experiance with Abies is to just forget it south of zone 5 unless you want to take a hit in the pocket book. I woulden't even think twice about trying to grow it especially if I lived in Texas. I think I gave tcharles26 good advice.

|There are too many exceptions to Firs to say that they cannot grow there. Firs and Spruces are my 2 favorite conifers and after alot of research and growing I've determined that Abies Firma isn't the only reliably heat tolerant fir. Here's a list of firs that would be worth trying. Abies Cephalonica, Abies Chinensis, Abies Cilicica, Abies Durangensis, Abies Firma, Abies Guatemalensis, Abies Hickeli, Abies Nebrodensis, Abies Numidica, Abies Pindrow, Abies Pinsapo var. Marocana, Abies Recurvata, and Abies Vejarii. I have grown five of those here in the Atlanta area so I think you stand a better chance of being able to grow one than most people will tell you. Also you can buy some Abies Firma seedlings for $0.85 a piece and then if you find a fir that you really like you can buy it and grow it for a few months before it dies and then graft a few branches to the Japanese Fir seedlings.
Here is a link that might be useful: Treehaven Nursery
|"Abies Chinensis"
No such thing! Methinks you mean Abies chensiensis?
PS species names also take lower case

We are the parish of St John The Evangelist in Highbridge, Somerset. Welcome to our web site.
Until the end of October...
Journeying with God
St John's is a friendly and accommodating parish church and you will be made very welcome.
We provide a range of worship styles throughout the week, and also a variety of opportunities to share in the life of our local neighbourhood, the town of Highbridge.
Typically, Sundays feature at least two acts of worship, beginning with a traditional Holy Communion using the Book of Common Prayer, at 8am. This is 'said', not featuring any hymns. It is followed at 9.30am by Parish Communion, using Common Worship: a sung communion with hymns and responses. Various other acts of worship are offered on particular Sundays. The details can be found on our diary or on our 'Worship' pages (follow the link above).
There are many other activities always going on in and around the church. Many are described on this site.
The church is open every day, except Mondays, so please do visit us, to stop and pray, to sit quietly or simply to soak up the atmosphere of the building.
All worship is open to everyone.
Our Journey With God
At the start of July we gathered as a church to explore our vision for the future.
Following on from our vision day, we are organising a series of six displays giving opportunity for prayer and reflection to help us deepen our faith and equip us for our journey.
Beginning on Sunday 14th September, and continuing until 24th October, this is a drop-in experience that we invite you to be part of. The church is open from 9am to 5pm Mon-Sat.
We will be focusing on the following topics:
- Wherever you are God is
- You are loved
- God asks "Do you love me?"
- Your gift is cherished
- The Sabbath is for you
- You are not alone
Times for further discussion on each topic are also on offer, the dates for which are shown on each of the displays. Again, all are welcome to these discussions.
All are welcome! Please make every effort to attend.
Trinity and Ordinary Time
Christianity is monotheistic, which means that we believe in a single, loving and personal God in our lives. "There is only one God" we proclaim as we say the Creed each Sunday. There is one God, but we also believe that God exists as three 'persons', and we refer to these persons as God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. It is a wonderful image: God in relationship with God and from this three-in-one nature we can draw such important messages of fellowship, love and community. The three in one nature of God is referred to as The Trinity and at Trinity Sunday we celebrate this wonderful nature and remember that it is in fellowship and through relationships with those around us that we fully know God. Our communion service contains the phrase, "We are all one body because we all share in one bread". We are united with God through the breaking and sharing of bread.
The Trinity is the last major Sunday until the end of October, and the time between Trinity Sunday and All Souls is often referred to as 'Ordinary Time', and each Sunday is often referred to in relation to Trinity. So, we have "the first Sunday after Trinity", etc.

On July 27, Kris Johnson -- one of the founders of Bad Stain Records -- was leaving O'Brien's (35th Avenue and Northern) when he was approached by two teenage assailants, a male and a female. Johnson didn't know these people -- had never seen them before -- yet without exchanging words, the male shot him in the torso, puncturing major internal organs. Luckily, Johnson survived, but his recovery will be long and arduous. In an effort to help with his rising medical bills, his rocker friends are putting on a benefit show.
The driving force behind this show is Numbers on Napkins. The Phoenix band is a quick-paced, simple pop-punk band, ideal for those who love Blink 182 and Bayside. It formed out of the ashes of Yars' Revenge, and if you remember that band, you deserve a gold star. Show openers Helen's Wheels is punk rock, too, but not quite as mainstream -- gritty, with shout-style vocals reminiscent of Stretch Armstrong. The band just formed earlier this year, but the members have known one another for a decade, which might explain why it sounds cohesive.
Besides the fine lineup, this show is a way to support a longtime friend to the local music community. If a bunch of unsigned musicians can offer up money and time to help, you should be able to spare a little of your own.

The New York State constitution made a promise to care for those who cannot care for themselves. For New Yorkers with developmental disabilities that promise was affirmed in the Willowbrook Consent Decree signed by Governor Hugh Carey in 1975, requiring the State to move people with disabilities from institutions into appropriate community settings.
Ongoing budget problems leave us in danger of breaking our promise to care for New Yorkers who need our help. New York is better than that. We're asking Governor Andrew Cuomo not to propose or support further cuts in our ability to keep New York's promise.
Budget cuts to supports and services affect real people – real New Yorkers – including people with developmental disabilities and those who provide their supports and services.
Please tell the Governor to KEEP THE PROMISE TO THE MOST VULNERABLE NEW YORKERS!
Honor the Promise!Read the petition
