The Tattler………..
Her note sits on my dresser to this day. Written over thirty years
ago, I have cherished it ever since it arrived in my seminary mailbox.
Call it a relic of the past, when people usually sent hand-written messages by “snail”
mail. To me, it remains a tangible expression of God’s grace and a source of ongoing
encouragement when the doubts and disappointments of ministry dog my trail.
This particular precious piece of correspondence came from Frances Shoemaker in
response to the first sermon I preached as a field education student at Wallingford
Presbyterian Church in Wallingford, PA. I still marvel that Frances took the time and
effort to convey her appreciation for my message along with her desire to hear me preach
again!
Inspired by her simple kindness, and as a way of “paying it forward,” I encourage you
to join me in a self-proclaimed campaign I’m calling “Letters for Lent.” The gist of this
campaign is quite simple. Devote some time each day or at least once a week to sending
a personal expression of encouragement or appreciation to another member of the
congregation, your family, or anyone else whose name God places on your heart. And
make it a “sacrificial offering” of your heart. Sure, you could send a text or tweet,
an e-mail or Facebook post, but in this age of instant, effortless, and impersonal
communication, why not go “the extra mile” (or however many it takes for the mail
carrier to deliver it) and hand write a letter, note, or at the very least a post card, to
someone who needs to know you care enough to put pen to paper, address an envelope,
buy a stamp, and walk or drive to the mailbox.
In order to assist you in this Lenten offering, blank note cards will be available in the
Narthex along with a list of the names and addresses of some of our church members
who have been absent of late and those who can no longer attend church on a regular
basis. Don’t worry about being profound or polished. It’s enough, no more than enough
to be personal and sincere. And ALL of us can do this, regardless of our age! Even
children can create a message by means of a bit of artwork.
Should you doubt the impact of such a simple gesture, consider how impoverished we
would be without the letters of Paul, who went to great lengths to communicate to the
young churches he planted, even when he was imprisoned. So, mindful of his gracious
example, I pray with him that, “the one who started a good work in you will stay with
you to complete the job by the day of Christ Jesus. I have good reason to think this way
about all of you because I keep you in my heart (Philippians 1:6-7).”
Faithfully yours,
----Pastor George

CHRISTMAS MISSION MARKET - As you know we did not have the market this

Suggestion for time (Oct, Nov, Dec) We welcome any and all comments you would like to offer. We would like to have something that the congregation would like and support.

“The season of Lent is a time of prayer, fasting and self-examination in preparation for the
celebration of the resurrection of the Lord at Easter. It is a period of 40 days. (The Sundays in
Lent are not counted in this reckoning of the time between Ash Wednesday and Easter, as every Lord’s Day is a celebration of the resurrection of Jesus Christ.) In the early church, Lent
was a time of preparation for the celebration of baptism at the Easter Vigil.”

Open the Doorway to Membership at RPC The Doorway to Membership, hosted by the Evangelism Committee, is a special
event intended to provide information for regularly attending non-members of
Rockledge Presbyterian Church who might be considering membership. The event is
also designed for anyone who simply wants to learn more about the church and
opportunities to grow as a disciple of Jesus Christ through worship and service. Led by
Pastor George, this three-session orientation will briefly overview RPC history and
what it means to be Presbyterian, explain the meaning of church membership and
stewardship, motivate the group to identify their gifts for ministry within/outside the
church, and answer any questions about membership. To profit fully from the event,
attendees must be present at every session. If you choose not to formally join at
this time, these sessions will help to suggest ways you can still be an active participant in the church.
The Doorway to Membership will be held on Sunday, March 8th

; and Sunday
March 22nd from 1:00-2:30 p.m. Before each session, participants are invited to attend a light lunch in

Pastor George led us in worship. The service included scripture, distribution of ashes, music and the
serving of Communion around the tables.
Many thanks to those who prepared the delicious soups and desserts to share, and to those who helped
with the set up and tear down of the tables and chairs. All of your efforts were appreciated!

What is Per Capita?
Per capita funding is how Presbyterians mutually share the costs of coming together to discern
the Spirit’s leading for the future.
It is how Presbyterians are trained to become better elders and ministers.
It is how Presbyterians discern God’s call in their lives.
It is how Presbyterians participate in the life of the wider church by serving on GA committees
and commissions.
It is how Presbyterians participate in the life of the Church universal as we commit ourselves to
work and live in fellowship with “all persons in every nation” (Book of Order, G-4.0101)
Why is per capita important?
Per capita brings Presbyterians together — literally!
Presbyterians are connected in many ways, including our church government. We believe we
discern best what God is calling us to do when we gather as mid councils, “seek[ing] together to
find and represent the will of Christ” (Book of Order F-3.0204). Per capita dollars pay for the
costs of holding a General Assembly — including paying for the travel, room and board of
commissioners and advisory delegates, several of whom would not be able to afford these
expenses on their own.
Per capita makes it possible for Presbyterians to govern ourselves the way we do.
Presbyterians have a form of government built upon shared power and mutual accountability as
we seek together to find and represent the will of Christ. By providing the primary means
through which commissioners and advisory delegates can gather to do their work, per capita
dollars help to undergird our governance system.
Our Constitution provides a moral and theological compass that builds community and calls us to
Christian faithfulness in gratitude to God.
Per capita makes possible our effort for visible unity of the church of Jesus Christ.
What is RPC’s share (apportionment) of the Per Capita?
The share (apportionment) of Rockledge Presbyterian Church for ecclesiastical expenses for the fiscal year
2015 is based upon the membership of RPC as reported to the last General Assembly.
RPC reported membership = 341. Here is the RPC Per Capita Share (Apportionment) for fiscal year 2015:
Per Member RPC Overall
General Assembly = $7.07 $2,410.87
Synod = $1.50 $511.50
Presbytery = $6.93 $2,363.13
*FLAPDAN = $.50 $170.50
Total to pay = $16.00 $5,456.00
*Central Florida Presbytery is asking for an additional contribution of $.50 per member to increase our mission
giving to FLAPDAN (Florida Presbyterian Disaster Assistance Network) and to restore reductions made to
committee budgets.
The total RPC 2015 Per Capita Assessment = $16.00 per member.
NOTE TO RPC Members: Please remember to write your Per Capita check to “RPC” with the words “Per
Capita” in the memo part of your check and with the amount on the check equal to $16 times the number of
members in your family. Turn in your Per Capita on March 1st. THANK YOU.
LOVE BRINGS HOPE
Volunteers in blue T-shirts offer their time and talent to rebuild communities impacted
by disaster. Churches respond to the problem of hunger in their communities. The blind
person's eyes are opened to new possibilities
What do these stories have in common?
HOPE - because God's LOVE is demonstrated through generous gifts to One Great Hour
of Sharing. Your gift allows Presbyterian Disaster Assistance to restore communities
around the world affected by natural and human made disasters.
Your gift helps the Presbyterian Hunger Program work with Presbyterians and other
partners to alleviate hunger and eliminate its causes in this country and internationally.
Your gift makes it possible for Self-Development of People to affirm dignity to all -
enabling persons to develop their potential and become contributing citizens.
As a result of your gifts, One Great Hour of Sharing will continue to be a reminder that
through the simple act of sharing, we are sharing HOPE that is a witness to God's LOVE
for all creation.
Our One Great Hour of Sharing offering will be received on Palm Sunday.
Envelopes are in the pew rack if you desire to give early.
Our goal this year is $2,035.
