by The Rev� Dr� Russell C� Sullivan, Jr�, Pastor

When you’re grieving the death of a family member or friend, you may dread the holiday season. Thoughts of social gatherings, family traditions and obligations leave you anxious and overwhelmed. Your sadness can seem unbearable. You may wish you could skip these next two months and go straight to the routine of the next year—but you can’t. What can you do to lessen your stress and loneliness?

You can start by learning what emotions are normal and to be expected when facing the holidays without your loved one When you know what to expect, you won’t be rendered helpless as holiday events trigger unexpected emotions� Make a point to spend time talking with people who have experienced a past loss and have already been through a holiday season without their loved one They can help you have an idea of typical emotions and emotional triggers to expect� These people can also provide much-needed comfort and support

making decisions in advance about traditions, meals, time spent with others, holiday decorating, gift-giving and commitments You will likely not have the energy or the interest in doing as much as you have in past years Decide ahead of time which invitations you’ll accept, and let the host or family member know that you might leave early� Decide which traditions will be too difficult without your deceased loved one, which traditions you’d like to maintain, and what new traditions you can start this year�

Communicating with family and friends

Creating a holiday plan will help

Another important step in surviving the holidays is to create a healthy plan for the coming season A healthy plan involves

What’s also helpful in facing the holidays is to communicate your specific concerns and needs with your family and friends� People in grief are often tempted to put on a mask and

Advent Music at Pine Street

by Tom Clark-Jones

We open Advent on November 28 with anthems by the American, Joseph Clokey and a re-visit to the beautiful opening of Handel’s “Messiah” with the glorious solos, “Comfort Ye” and “Every Valley” sung by Jonathan Hudson, our tenor soloist

Then on December 5, the Chamber Singers provide the sermon in song, with a beautiful work entitled The Mystery of Bethlehem by the distinguished Canadian composer, Healey Willan� Although not often performed because of greater interest in some of his larger choral works, this gem sets a beautiful mood for the season� Jonathan Hays and Courtney Gray join the group as soloists for this work

Look for more details about the season’s musical offerings, including the traditional Nine Lessons and Carols service and dinner on December 12, in the next issue of Pine Street Life

Grief

Continued from page 1

pretend things are fine, especially over the holidays Your friends may want you to “cheer up” and “have fun,” when that’s the last thing you want� Others will avoid you because they don’t know what to say and don’t want to make you feel worse Some family members will give you wrong advice in a misguided attempt to help� All of these people likely mean well, but will only end up hurting you if you don’t communicate what you truly need from them

As difficult as this may be, it’s important to tell people what they can do to help and what they are doing that isn’t helping� And if you don’t have the energy or inclination to talk to people face-to-face, then write your thoughts, concerns and needs in a letter or email What’s important is that you are being honest and gracious in your communication�

So where can you find out what emotions to expect over the holidays, how to create a healthy plan and how to communicate with family and friends these coming weeks?

Pine Street Receives Gracious Gift

by The Rev Dr Russell C Sullivan, Jr , Pastor

There is nothing more enjoyable than to be surprised by a pure act of kindness and generosity� When those experiences happen, we just can’t say thank you enough! Pine Street has received a gift like this from the Estate of Marie Graupner Elias Marie and her husband, David, were not members of Pine Street, but were devout Christians with a deep commitment to Harrisburg and our surrounding community� Let me share with you some highlights of their lives

David and Marie were lifelong residents of Harrisburg� They worked together for many years in their business, General Machinery and Equipment Company, and they were superb business partners� A trained engineer, David supplied the technical expertise necessary for his business while Marie ran its daily operations� Being successful in their company, however, was not the sole ambition of their life Their hearts were also invested in improving both the community of Harrisburg and the lives of those who live and work in Harrisburg� Through civic organizations and their church, they gave faithfully to the arts and charities�

They were model citizens in every way� Notwithstanding their wealth, they lived a simple lifestyle and were known for their integrity, humility, caring, and generosity� One of the great lessons we learn from this generous couple is that we are blessed to be blessings in our world and that the place we are called to bless is none other than our own communities where we live and grow�

David died in 1989, and Marie, in 2009� Through Marie’s Estate, she has continued their legacy of serving the community In addition to Pine Street, two other area churches, three non-profits that serve the homeless and poor (including our own Downtown Daily Bread), four Pennsylvania schools, a dozen non-profit organizations, and the arts were recipients of bequests from her Estate�

The funds that Pine Street received were used to replace the windows in our Educational Building What a timely and amazing gift! Let us be inspired by the example of the Elias’s to give and share of our blessings And let us be thankful for this magnificent and unexpected gift! May the benediction over their lives be the words of Jesus: “Well done, thou good and faithful servants!”

Capital Campaign News

by Craig Kegerise, Chair, Capital Campaign

It seems hard to believe that the three year Capital Campaign is almost at an end� But now, three years after we undertook raising over $ 1,700,000, we can see the fruits of our labor

Because of the generosity and faithfulness of our congregation, Pine Street Church and the Boyd Center have seen many improvements: Who could miss our beautiful stained glass windows, now fully restored? Or look up and see the beautifully restored chandeliers and improved lighting throughout the sanctuary? If you walk outside the church at night, the welcome new lighting of our exterior brings safety and warmth to those who pass by� The renovations to the Administrative office provide a more welcoming place for visitors as well as a more efficient workplace for our staff The new Welcome Center in the Gathering Place keeps us informed of all the happenings in the church and the new carpet in the hallway outside the sanctuary adds warmth and cleanliness as it guides us to worship�

Have you visited the Boyd center lately to see the renovated gymnasium, rest rooms, and kitchens? They are fantastic!

We owe many thanks to the Renovation Committee lead by Ken Hays for their great work�

In addition to the renovations within the church and Boyd Center, our Capital Campaign funds have been pledged to the Community Check-up Center in downtown Harrisburg to help needy families get medical attention; to the Susquehanna Safe Haven Shelter to provide a safe place for those in need; and for needed improvements at Camp Krisland

With the help of God, we have been able to accomplish all these things But we are not done yet Although all renovation bills have been received and paid, there are still $ 70,367�27 in pledges from the congregation that are outstanding Pledges that are still needed to complete our commitments to the mission and program portion of our campaign� If you have not done so, we urge you to complete your pledge to the Capital Campaign as soon as possible

All praise, honor, and glory be to God our Father�

Mission Day

On October 2, six Pine Street Church members (John Hertzler, Norriene Koozer, Jeanne and Bob Troy, and Debbie and Roger Olson) volunteered at the home of Catherine Schaeffer of Camp Hill as part of Rebuilding Together She had applied to Rebuilding Together Greater Harrisburg for help at her home The ‘crew’ repointed the chimney, trimmed tree branches that overhung the roof, cleaned out a gutter and replaced a downspout, sealed a basement wall with a waterproofing material, and built an additional landing on her front stoop to add another step to enable her to more easily enter her house It was a beautiful, sunny day and she was pleased with our work� Funds for the materials that were needed will be paid from money currently in the Mission Possible Fund The Mission Committee thanks Pine Street members for supporting this fund

Reading Rocks

Pine Street received a lovely thank you note from the director of the Hansel and Gretel Early Learning Center for our involvement in the reading program this summer We plan to read to the children again next summer�

“It is with much sadness that the summer comes to a close and also ends our special visits from our Pine Street Readers . The children so enjoyed those visits and their interactions with you Many of them would ask if this was a “Reading Day ” The added time you offered them this summer was a true gift That personalized time – the time spent with quality children’s books and an adult’s undivided attention is so missing from most of their lives… We thank you for sharing your time, talents and love of reading with our little ones .

Sincerely, Laura Grill, Director”

OnSeptember 22 I attended a press conference at the State Capitol Hunger Garden The Hunger Garden is a cooperative project established earlier this year to grow fresh produce for food banks, pantries, and soup kitchens, and to raise awareness on hunger issues outside the Capitol Building� Downtown Daily Bread played an active part in the project since its inception

After the press conference, the Under Secretary of Food, Nutrition and Consumer Services, Kevin Concannon, along with Senator Brubaker, Rep� Susan C� Helm, and officials from the Food Bank, U S Department of Agriculture, Feeding America, and members of the Hunger Caucus, toured Downtown Daily Bread� Our guests also helped Brenda prepare lunch by peeling, slicing, and dicing assorted vegetables from the Garden to be used in a salad for that day’s lunch� It was fun watching dignitaries don aprons and seriously begin their prep work

During my DDB talk, I was asked how long I had been at Downtown Daily Bread� I had to do a quick calculation to verify that this June I began my 15th year The time has gone by quickly� I told the delegation how DDB has evolved over those years� The dining room was not the modern, bright, welcoming place it is now There was no substitute cook, no counselor, no mail delivery, no clothing, no showers, no haircuts, no employment counseling, no health checks, no legal advice, no veterans’ services, no homeless services, and no mental health referrals� All those pieces of our Lunch Plus program came from listening to our clients and trying to fill their needs�

Entertainment Books for DDB

The 2011 Harrisburg Entertainment coupon books are now available The book contains coupons for local restaurants, movie theaters, sporting events, grocery stores, and more! Books are available at the Welcome Center for $30� Checks should be made payable to Downtown Daily Bread� DDB receives $5 from each book and more after 25 are sold� It’s a way to pick up some extra funding for DDB & we need it!

Thanks for your help� Elaine

On an interesting note, a photographer for the event told me that in 1983, when Downtown Daily Bread opened, he took pictures of the facility for The Patriot-News He remembered the dining room and kitchen in the Boyd gym� I asked him to tell me more about those first days� His recollection was fuzzy but one thing he did remember, “I was so surprised to see that there were hungry people in Harrisburg� I had not realized that before and it was a real awakening for me�” I could say the same thing for me 15 years ago� We have all come a long way� x

Bears for Bread

Loretta Smith, Margaret Mielke and Marna Holt manned the Bears for Bread booth at East Pennsboro Township’s Pumpkin Fest on October 9 & 10 They received $1,300 in donations, which will be presented to Downtown Daily Bread� Bears will be available in the Gathering Place during Advent for a $10 donation�
