Rally Day
We Are the Hands of Christ
Let love be genuine; hate what is evil, hold fast to what is good; love one another with mutual affection; outdo one another in showing honor. Do not lag in zeal, be ardent in spirit, serve the Lord. Rejoice in hope, be patient in suffering, persevere in prayer. Contribute to the needs of the saints; extend hospitality to strangers.
Romans 12:9-‐13
From the Pastor’s Desk Rev. Vance Polley
O sing to the LORD a new song;Sing to the LORD all the earth! (Psalm 98)
At Sunrise, we celebrate a wide variety of musical expressions in worshipping God. In the last year, we have worshipped using Barbershop Style Harmony, Jazz, Bluegrass, African-American Spirituals, Gospel, Taizé, Praise, Traditional, Classical and combinations of musical traditions. Guest musicians have been instrumentalists and vocalists.
We are incredibly fortunate to have the creative leadership of Matthew Parker. His enthusiasm for all musical styles has made this wide variety of musical expression possible. Matthew and I are nurturing a vision of Sunrise as a place where you will always find a rich cross-section of music praising God.
On July 26th, we experienced an unique worship service. In 2007, Mathew’s good friend Nacio Barcia suggested that the range of emotions contained in Chick Corea’s Children’s Songs had a deep spiritual connection. Eight years ago, we crafted a worship service that tapped these spiritual roots. It was a joy and privilege for us to bring this service back to Sunrise.
The heart of this service was allowing music itself to move us into a nonverbal conversation with God. The joy of Children’s Songs 14, 1, and 3 expressed our joy and confidence in God. Moving into reflective self-examination, Children’s Song 19 opened us up to a God that knows us better than we know ourselves. There were words in the bulletin to guide us on this journey, but they were for silent reflection and remained unspoken. The spoken Assurance of Forgiveness was punctuated by Children’s Song 14. This song formed bookends, so to speak, from Expressing Our Joy to the Assurance of God’s Forgiveness!
Children’s Songs were also used in a conversation with the scriptures. The mood of each passage was mirrored in the musical expression. In this way, we explored the scriptures on a nonverbal level that taps into our emotional responses. The theme of the meditation was Beyond Words.
Matthew and I firmly believe that exploring a variety of musical expressions opens each one of us up to a greater appreciation of our own familiar musical traditions. The wonder and joy of a Hymn Sing is participating in the rich variety of hymns and songs of praise available. I like to think we get to see the joy in other people’s faces as they sing a hymn that reconnects them with important memories and moments in their lives.
Looking ahead, there are wonderful musical experiences planned. We will keep you posted and describe the purpose behind the variety of expressions. As the psalmist so aptly puts it: O sing to the LORD a new song; sing to the LORD all the earth!
In God’s grace,
Hands of Christ distributions have begun. This summer there will be 20 distributions that started on July 25th and will end on August 15th. Some of our distribution sites have enough volunteers from their own congregations; therefore they do not need additional help. Therefore, Sunrise is targeting the sites that really need our help. They are:
• Sunrise will be partnered with Park Circle, so we will need pleanty of help all three days, on August 6, 7 and 8. On the 6th, Sunrise will be providing the meal; so in addition to shoppers to pick up the pizzas, we need help with serving the meal.
• Bethel in Walterboro on August 1st
• Yeaman's Park on August 3rd
• Second Presbyterian on August 10th and 11th
• New Wapetaw in McCellanville on the 12th, will also need a few folks.
• Westminster Presbyterian on August 13th-‐15th
I hope you can find room in your heart and in your schedule to help out at one or more of these sites. You will never regret volunteering. Along with helping children get their clothing and supplies, you will meet other wonderful Presbyterians from all over the area. This is a way to truly see how we can make a difference; and how we are the HANDS OF CHRIST IN OUR COMMUNITY. Please come share your love and encouragement with these children. Education is the key to their success, and you can share that knowledge along with a hug and some kindness.
The mission committee is signing-‐up volunteers during both fellowship times following the services and will continue until August 9th. I look forward to another summer of sharing God's love with all of you and with those in our area that need a little extra help getting their children ready for school. You can contact Rebecca or Lee Sigmon at 284-‐8239.

August brings our traditional “back to school day,” when the children choose their book bag from the large assortment at Target. Then off to Barnes and Noble for a book of their own. Next we will have lunch, and then back to One80 Place to fill the book bags with supplies provided by Hands of Christ.
We had to cancel a trip at the end of July, because for various reasons, no children were able to go. I'm waiting for definite dates to reschedule, but please get in touch with me if you are interested in helping or want more information. Thank you Sunrise members, for your help in giving these children some time of joy. You can contact Donna at 886-‐8158 or [email protected].
Friends * Eating * And * Sharing * Together!
It's that time again. No...not Tax time, not Christmas, but time to sign up for FEAST! If you are wondering what FEAST is, it’s worth your time to read further.
FEAST is a church social gathering meeting in small groups of 6 to 10 people. Meetings take place in homes, restaurants and at church. Pastor Vance always recommends an inspiring book for a short discussion.
Home events typically follow a pot luck format so there is no financial burden. The groups are attended by both singles and couples of all ages. The simple goal of FEAST is to meet your fellow church members. Kellie and I can attest to meeting great people who will be life-‐long friends. Last year over 50 Sunrise members were involved and the feedback has been uplifting! Don't be shy...please ask any questions that you might have as the reward is well worth the effort. Questions may be sent to Victor Apat at VApat6604@gmail. com or feel free to ask Judy and Wally Collins; or Kellie and me at church.

See below and meet our new members, the Heckart’s!
Meet Sunrise’s Newest MembersSteve Heckart was born in Middleton, Connecticut. Stephanie Heckart was born and raised in Columbia, SC. She graduated from USC and has fond memories of visiting the Charleston area while growing up.
Steve and Stephanie met at work, at an insurance provider. They are both nurses. They own a second home in Mt. Pleasant and plan to retire here. They currently attend church at North Eastern Presbyterian Church in Columbia. They decided to
join Sunrise after attending a number of other churches in the area. Steve previously has served as a Deacon.
They have two children, a daughter, Heather (shown in picture above), 16 years; and a son, 20 years.
Stephanie’s family connection to Charleston is that they lived here until the time of the Civil War. They feared that Charleston would be attacked and burned, so they relocated to Columbia as a safe haven!

“Sunrise Gothic”
by Mattie Smith and Campbell Long
The Youth trip to the Thornwell Home was full of fellowship and fun. Being a leader on the trip helped us to see youth ministry in a new light. As we studied the Book of Acts and did yard work for the home, Campbell and I grew closer to the Youth in ways we didn't expect we would. Andy helped us hone our leadership skills in many ways throughout the trip. He taught us how to contribute to a group discussion in a way that encouraged the younger members of the group to form their own opinions. He also taught us that the best leader isn't always the most well liked leader. The Thornwell trip helped us grow as leaders in innumerable ways and we hope to have opportunities to lead the Youth in the future.

The Women's Evening
Bible Study
Led by Reece Smith
The Miriam-‐Naomi Circle will begin their new study year next month, at
10:00 am on Tuesday, September 8th. We welcome participants for a single session or for the
entire study year. We are excited about using another Kerygma study, Parables:
Stories for Life in God's World. The author, Richard J. Henderson tells us that "A parable can help us comprehend God better, know ourselves more realistically, change what we value, and deal with people in healthier relationships. Parables show us what it means to forgive, or fail to forgive; to show compassion or withhold it; to act decisively or allow the moment to pass. These are potentially life-‐changing stories." Copies of the study guide are already
available for $8.00 from the Church Office. Please bring a check or exact change. We look
forward to starting this new study in September.
Miriam ~ Naomi Circle
will not meet during August.

More than just a Fair Trade Product
Fair Trade is a good start, but it’s only a start. The real profit in coffee comes from roasting the beans, not growing them. By keeping farmers in the process, Just Coffee ensures that success is shared equally.
Just Coffee is a cooperative based in Salvador Urbina, Chiapas, Mexico and makes it possible for the people of these communities to remain with their families, make a decent living, and provide an education and healthcare for their children. The price of regular coffee is $9.00 and the price of decaf $10.00. We thank you for your continued support of this worthwhile mission.
Just Coffee will be available for you to purchase in the Fellowship Hall on the first Sunday of the month. Thanks to all of you who support the Just Coffee mission!
