 unison scripture
7:30 a.m.
L UKE 5: 12-16 (NRSV)
12 Once, when he was in one of the cities,
there was a man covered with leprosy. When he
saw Jesus, he bowed with his face to the
ground and begged him, "Lord, if you choose,
you can make me clean." 13 Then Jesus
stretched out his hand, touched him, and said,
"I do choose. Be made clean." Immediately the
leprosy left him. 14 And he ordered him to tell
no one. "Go," he said, "and show yourself to
the priest, and, as Moses commanded, make an
offering for your cleansing, for a testimony to
them." 15 But now more than ever the word
about Jesus spread abroad; many crowds would
gather to hear him and to be cured of their
diseases. 16 But he would withdraw to deserted
places and pray.
--------------------------------------

I JO HN 4:18-21 (N RSV)
18 There is no fear in love, but perfect love
casts out fear; for fear has to do with
punishment, and whoever fears has not reached
perfection in love. 19 We love because he first
loved us. 20 Those who say, "I love God," and
hate their brothers or sisters, are liars; for those
who do not love a brother or sister whom they
have seen, cannot love God whom they have
not seen. 21 The commandment we have from
him is this: those who love God must love their
brothers and sisters also.

I SAM UEL 8:1-8 (NRSV)
1 When Samuel became old, he made his sons
judges over Israel. 2 The name of his firstborn
son was Joel, and the name of his second,
Abijah; they were judges in Beer-sheba. 3 Yet
his sons did not follow in his ways, but turned
aside after gain; they took bribes and perverted
justice. 4 Then all the elders of Israel gathered
together and came to Samuel at Ramah, 5 and
said to him, "You are old and your sons do not
follow in your ways; appoint for us, then, a
king to govern us, like other nations." 6 But the
thing displeased Samuel when they said, "Give
us a king to govern us." Samuel prayed to the
LORD, 7 and the LORD said to Samuel,
"Listen to the voice of the people in all that
they say to you; for they have not rejected you,
but they have rejected me from being king over
them. 8 Just as they have done to me, from the
day I brought them up out of Egypt to this day,
forsaking me and serving other gods, so also
they are doing to you.

 HYMN OF PRAISE
7:30 a.m.
JUST A L ITT LE TAL K
WITH J ESUS
VERSE I
I once was lost in sin but Jesus took me in,
And then a little light from heaven filled my
soul; It bathed my heart in love and wrote my
name above, And just a little talk with Jesus
made me whole.
CHORUS
[Now let us] Have A little talk with Jesus, [let
us] tell Him all about our troubles, [He will]
Hear our faintest cry, [and He will] answer by
and by; [Now when you] Feel a little pray’r
wheel turning, [and you] know a little fire is
burning, [you will] Find a little talk with Jesus
makes it right [it makes it right].
VERSE II
Sometimes my path seems drear, without a ray
of cheer, And then a cloud of doubt may hide
the light of day; The mists of sin may rise and
hide the starry skies, But just a little talk with
Jesus clears the way.
(Repeat chorus)
VERSE III
I may have doubts and fears, my eyes be filled
with tears, But Jesus is a friend who watches
day and night; I go to Him in pray’r, He
knows my ev’ry care, And just a little talk
with Jesus makes it right.
(Repeat chorus)

OH, HOW I LO VE JE SUS
VE RSE I
There is a name I love to hear, I love to sing
its worth; It sounds like music in mine ear,
The sweetest name on earth.
CHORUS
O, how I love Jesus, O, how I love Jesus, O,
how I love Jesus, Because He first loved me!
VE RSE II
It tells me of a Savior’s love, Who died to set
me free; It tells me of His precious blood, The
sinner’s perfect plea.
(Repeat Chorus)
VE RSE III
It tells me what my Father hath In store for
ev’ry day, And tho’ I tread a darksome path,
Yields sunshine all the way.
(Repeat Chorus)
VE RSE IV
It tells of One whose loving heart Can feel my
deepest woe, Who in each sorrow bears a part,
That none can bear below.
(Repeat Chorus)

A VE RY SPECIAL WEL COM E
T O JE RRY CAN NON!
We are “peacock proud and hyena
happy” (to use Freddy Haynes
terminology) to welcome to our pulpit
today the Reve rend Doctor Je rry Cannon .
Dr. Cannon is the pastor of the C.N.
Jenkins Presbyterian Church in Charlotte,
North Carolina. Dr. Cannon has hosted
me at the C.N. Jenkins Church ever since
he was called to serve there as pastor 12
years ago.
It has been my privilege to have
watched the C.N. Jenkins Church grow
from a small, struggling congregation to a
powerful place of worship and service in
our God’s Kingdom. The growth of the
C.N. Jenkins Church (and the construction
of their new facility!) are the direct results
of the awesome pastorate of this terrific
man of God.
For the members of our
congregation who were at our annual
Revival services on Thursday and Friday,
you got to see some of the members of
C.N. Jenkins who traveled with their
pastor to the city of Chicago for this week
(to be at our Revival and to be with us this
Sunday).
When Dr. Cannon and I settled on
this date for his being here, the emergency
meeting of the Board of Directors of the
Samuel DeWitt Proctor Conference had
not been set. I am sorry that I am not with
Sunday, July 24, 2005
him personally to share in this morning’s
service, but I know that he will preach
with power.
My request of you, my beloved
members of Trinity, is that you give him a
Trinity welcome and receive him with
open arms.
Thank you, Jerry, for blessing us;
and thank you for bringing your members
to worship with us!
DR. W ALDO J OHNSON
DO ES IT AGAIN !
One of the most active members of
our church, Dr. Wa ldo Johnson , a faithful
member of the Men’s Chorus and the
Men’s Ministries continues to blaze
exciting trails at the University of
Chicago! After having achieved tenure,
Dr. Johnson continued to shepherd African
American students (and white students)
towards their Ph.D. degree in the School of
Social Work.
As a result of his sterling service
and his outstanding scholarship, Dr.
Johnson was appointed on the July 1, 2005
to be the director of the Center of the
Study of Race, Politics and Culture by the
University Provost! This appointment is a
three-year appointment.
This is another “first” for Dr.
Johnson and it is another reason why
Trinity members should be proud of what

 PASTOR’S PAGE
all of our members are doing in various
walks of life. Be sure to give Dr. Johnson
a high-five today!
CO NGRAT ULAT IO NS
L ET ISE HOUSER!
One of my “kids” in this church,
Miss Leti se House r, is finishing up her
doctoral work and I want the congregation
to be aware of what it is she is doing.
Many of you will remember that she was
here at an 11 o’clock service last year and
I was teasing her about being a marine
biologist.
Letise is April Houser’s daughter.
Letise grew up in this church and has gone
on to excel in her chosen field and
profession.
On Friday, September 16th, Letise
will be defending her Ph.D. dissertation at
the University of Delaware. Letise is
home here in Chicago for the summer as
she finishes up the writing of her
dissertation.
After she successfully defends in
September, Letise will be based here until
the end of the year 2005. Her actual
graduation from the University of
Delaware is not until next January.
Following her tenure here for the
rest of this year, Letise will be moving to
Washington, D.C., at the beginning of
Sunday, July 24, 2005
2006 to start a Marine Policy Fellowship
on Capitol Hill. It is The Knauss
Fellowship sponsored by the NOAAC
Grant!
There are not too many
congregations that have Marine Biologists
as members of the congregation. We are
blessed to have one in our congregation
and we are blessed to have Letise still an
active member of this congregation!
Please be sure to give her a high-five this
week.
PR AYER FOR BRYAN J OHNSON
A ND ASHL E Y M ARSH
One of our Music Staff, Bryan
Johnson, and one of our Little Warriors,
Ashley Marsh, leave this week for Nagoya,
Japan! The Chicago Children's Choir is
participating in a music festival in
conjunction with the World Expo from
July 22nd through August 2nd, 2005.
Ashley sings with the Chicago
Children's Choir and the Hyde Park
Neighborhood Choir. The Hyde Park
Neighborhood Choir (or representatives
from that choir) is one of the choirs
forming the "mass choir" which is made
up of six neighborhood choirs. The "mass
choir" is touring with the Concert Choir of
Chicago Children and Bryan Johnson is
one of the choral conductors.

ACTION-CAL L FOR FAIR
COUR T PROC ESS
Dear Trinity Member,
In response to the July 1
resignation announcement of Supreme
Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor, the
UCC 25th General Synod in Atlanta, GA,
approved an emergency resolution calling
for President Bush and the Senate to
engage in a bipartisan process of
meaningful consultation in nominating the
next Supreme Court Justice.
The Synod resolution expresses
appreciation for Justice O'Connor's
balanced jurisprudence and moderating
leadership and calls attention to the
significance of this nomination at a time
when the country is deeply divided. This
resolution urges the President and the
Senate to set aside the politics of
confrontation and division, and instead
pursue consensus.
Sunday, July 24, 2005
Justice O'Connor's resignation
creates a vacancy on the Supreme Court
for the first time in over 11 years. Her
replacement will be appointed for life and
will be given the responsibility of
interpreting our nation's constitutional
rights. Given the Supreme Court's role in
protecting the rights and liberties of all
Americans, a thorough and deliberate
process of consultation and confirmation is
essential.
The "advise and consent clause" in
the Constitution makes the President and
Senate partners in the appointment and
confirmation of federal judges. The
President's meeting with congressional
leaders on July 12th was an encouraging
step in the process of consultation, and one
to be applauded.
Your voice is needed to encourage
President Bush and the Senate to engage in
a process of consultation that is thorough,
fair and beyond reproach. It is only
through such a process that a consensus
nominee will emerge who is independent
of ideological bias and committed to
protecting the rights, liberties and freedom
of all Americans.
To send a fax or e-mail message to
the President and your senators go to:

I wonder why this action of the
General Synod didn't make the news?

things that make you go:
Hmmmmmmmmmm?"

AN OTHE R SENAT E "SLICKIE "
T O BE NEFIT T HE RICH!
Before Congress adjourns for its
August break, the Senate leadership wants
to eliminate the estate and gift tax, a tax
that only applies to the wealthiest 1.4
percent of U.S. families. With scheduled
changes in exemption limits, the tax will
only apply to the wealthiest 0.3 percent of
U.S. families by 2009. The House has
already passed legislation eliminating the
estate tax (H.R. 8).
Exemptions in the estate tax
already make it virtually certain that
family farmers, homeowners and most
upper-income asset holders will never pay
inheritance taxes. Today, estates valued at
less than $1.5 million ($3 million for a
couple) can be passed on tax-free.
By 2009, only estates exceeding
$3.5 million ($7 million for couples) will
be subject to the estate tax. At this level,
according to the Urban Institute, only
8,500 estates in the entire country (just 65
of which are farm estates) will be subject
Sunday, July 24, 2005 10
to the estate tax by 2011 when someone
dies and leaves an estate to heirs.
Eliminating the estate tax also has a
negative impact on giving to churches,
charities, educational institutions and
foundations. The Congressional Budget
Office has shown that if the current estate
tax had been repealed in 2000, U.S.
charities would have lost $13 to $25
billion in donations in that one year alone.
The estate tax is our most fair and
progressive tax, because it taxes only those
who are already wealthy and have the
ability to pay. It also provides needed
revenues at a time when Congress is facing
nearly $45 billion in cuts to programs
funding critical needs in the next 5 years
and even deeper cuts in the future.
You can send an email to your
senators through our UCC website by
going to
http://www.ucctakeaction.org/ctt.asp?u=21
49192&l=100194
Call the Congressional switchboard
at (202)224-3121 and ask to be connected
to your senator's office. Urge them to
oppose any legislation to permanently
repeal the estate tax!

 TO DO JUSTICE By Rev. Reginald Williams
Micah 6:8

It appears that some people are finally beginning to wake up and smell the oil.
London Mayor Ken Livingstone told BBC radio last week that Western intervention in
the “Middle East” since the end of WWI was motivated by a desire to control the flow of
oil. According to Livingstone, “Under foreign occupation and denied a right to vote,
denied the right to run your own affairs . . . I suspect that if it had happened here in
England we would have produced a lot of suicide bombers ourselves . . . But I don't just
denounce suicide bombers. I denounce those governments which use indiscriminate
slaughter to advance their foreign policy.”
The double standard spoken of by Mayor Livingstone is just another example of
what Dr. Marimba Ani calls “Rhetorical Ethic.” Rhetorical Ethic, according to Dr. Ani, is
defined as: culturally structured European hypocrisy. It is a statement framed in terms of
acceptable moral behavior towards others that is meant for rhetorical purposes only. Its
purpose is to disarm intended victims of European cultural and political imperialism. It is
meant for “export” only. It is not intended to have significance within the culture. Its
essence is its deceptive effect in the service of European power.
This rhetorical ethic empowers Bush and Blair to claim to denounce terrorism
while refusing to look in the mirror and at the Downing Street Memo to see how they
have infected the world with a virus of hate and evil. The Downing Street Memo shows
how they intentionally fixed facts and “intelligence” (or stupidity, depending on how you
view it) in order to make themselves a war, resulting in over hundreds of thousands dead
– Americans and Iraqis.
Please do not be fooled by the games these people are playing. It is no more than
rhetorical ethic.

 STEWARDSHIP

STEWARD OF HOPE
The most exciting lesson on
Stewardship that I learned didn’t come from a Kujichagulia Ministry
book, but from old Mark Bright. Mark, a
living example of Christian joy, always Sensitivity Awareness Worship Service
seemed to find life a great adventure. Until
arthritis caught up with him, Mark was
always the most willing volunteer in his
church, able somehow to make difficult jobs
Extending A Hand
readily accomplished. Mark taught me:
“Christians are stewards of hope. We are the
Of Compassion

Agape
stewards of tomorrow.”
Daily, I become more impressed with
the truth of Mark’s teaching. The world today
seems so filled with greed, cynicism, despair
and hardness of heart that the few people who
face tomorrow courageously are a light in the
darkness. I wish I could say that all of those
courageous people were Christians, but I
cannot since God chooses to do some of His
work through unbelievers. I wish I could
claim the antithesis, namely that all the
Love
Christians I have met are courageous. I
cannot, because some are a faint spark where
HIV/AIDS Awareness
others are a flame.
However, it seems to me that Special Guests include:
Christians, as a group, are more hopeful, ANTHONY HOLLINS, PRAISE DANCER
more cheerful, more courageous in facing TRINITY ARTS PLAYERS
tomorrow than the other people of this world. BRYAN JOHNSON & IMANI YA WATUME
For Christians, there is always a “Tomorrow,”
for we have an understanding and forgiving
God. Our hope is to be a blessing to the WORD BROUGHT BY REV. MICHAEL SYKES
world for Christ. RECEPTION FOLLOWING SERVICE
When we strive to be better stewards
for Christ, we should remember to guard,
nurture and share our greatest treasure -
Today, Sunday,
“Christians are stewards of hope. We are July 24, 2005
stewards of tomorrow.”
