FEBRUARY, 2012
From Pastor Hart Edmonds, Interim:
Where To Touch the Elephant
The well-known story of the elephant and the blind men has several versions. One version goes like
this: a group of blind men touch an elephant to learn what it is like. Each one, though, touches a different
part of the animal, and, based on that part, infer a larger truth about what the entire elephant must be like.
In one account, the elephant is like a wicker basket to the one who touched the ear, a pot to the blind man
who touched the head and a brush to the one who touched the tip of the tail. When they compare their
experiences, they discover their disagreement. Each one has his own view of reality, depending upon
where he touched the elephant. Someone once said that truth is like an elephant surrounded by blind men.
Picking up on this story, I heard a respected church leader remark, “I touch the elephant wherever the
elephant appears.” His remark is based on the idea that the enormity of the elephant prevents anyone
from comprehending the whole. One can only observe what there is there in front of him or her. The
elephant is too monstrous to handle in its entirety.
Let’s examine the elephant-touch dilemma as it affects the life of today’s church and even the
church here at KHPC. If we think of the elephant as representing the church’s mission, do all touches
have the same value? Is there a place we all must touch? Finally, can we touch the church’s mission in
different places, disagree, and still work together? I believe we can.
Applying the elephant rule to life, one cannot deal with everything: therefore, one must work with what
is at hand or known. The same rule applies to the church. Touch whatever aspect of mission is within
reach. No congregation has to cover every part of the elephant. Leaders and members of each church
need to humbly recognize they are not God’s only agent of renewal in the community. As we embrace our
new guiding vision, “God’s Spirit at Work”, it is helpful to know that God only expects us to touch the part
of God’s wider mission that is present before us. Discerning what part of mission that we are to address is
part of the fun and adventure of being church together.
And yet all congregations need to touch tikkun olam, a Jewish concept that means “to mend the world.”
It sums up God’s work. As respected church leader and biblical scholar “N. T. Wright elaborates: “What
you do in the present-by painting, preaching, singing, sewing, praying, teaching, building hospitals,
digging wells, going on mission trips with the youth to Pennsylvania or adults to Guatemala, campaigning
for justice, writing poems, caring for the needy, cooking for hungry, loving your neighbor as yourself-will
last into God’s future.”
Whatever we do to mend the world has lasting value. Everyone contributes. God blesses each and
every gift. So here’s a question for you. In the coming year, where do you feel God’s Spirit is nudging
you to reach out and touch the elephant of mission and service?

NOTES FROM THE KHPC SESSION . . .
The KHPC Session met on Tuesday, January 10, 2012, at 6:30 p.m. in the Fellowship Hall. In
addition to the regular members of Session, guests Bob Kamp, Treasurer and Sue Kitchen from
the Stewardship Committee and Vision Writing Panel were present.
Jan Goings and Sue Imhausen gave a brief presentation of the history of writing the Guiding
Vision Statement. After reading the statement aloud, Session members were invited to respond
and highlight areas which spoke strongly to them. Discussion followed. The next steps were
outlined.

motion to adopt the Budget for 2012 was made. The motion passed.
Sue Kitchen made a report on the Stewardship Campaign. Although the number of pledging units
was down somewhat, the dollars pledged increased. Mrs. Kitchen recommended beginning the
campaign earlier and retaining the same stewardship committee members.

dealing with our budget deficit.

Rev. Edwin Goedecke of the Presbytery Committee on Ministry to discuss the expectations for the
formation of a Pastor Nominating Committee. The members who volunteered were Sue

CELEBRATING THE GOOD STUFF
“Celebrate God all day, every day…..Summing it all up, friends, I’d say you’ll do best by
filling your minds and meditating on things true, noble, reputable, authentic, compelling,
gracious—the best, not the worst; the beautiful, not the ugly; things to praise, not things to
curse.”
(The Message Bible--Philippians 4: 4, 8-9)
Recent “good news events”:
• The Vision Statement is a reality! At our Annual Meeting, we received the statement that was the work of many
months and much congregational input. Thanks to everyone!
• We have a new Pennies for Peace total. Our new total stand at $356.87, (that’s 35,687 pennies!) which puts us
almost to our next goal of collecting $365. Thank you for all the donations so far and please keep the pennies
coming.
• The artists of KHPC are making their mark in the community and beyond.
Hyeeun Suh will play a piano recital at 8:30 p.m. on Wednesday, February 29, at Werner Recital Hall at

Mary Kamp and colleagues are starting a “Dance for PD” class for people with Parkinson’s Disease.

aesthetic enjoyment, and community for those who participate. Janet Langhorst is also the accompanist for some
of the classes.
• The Youth Group has committed to a Mission Trip in Blue Knob, PA in July. They will be assisting with rural

Cincinnati Opera Comes to District A
SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 7 – 8 PM
Kennedy Heights Presbyterian Church, 6312 Kennedy Avenue
Porgy and Bess
Porgy and Bess, the great American opera composed by jazz musician George Gershwin, will
be presented by Cincinnati Opera for the very first time in June 2012. YOU CAN SEE IT NOW
… on FEB 11th in District A.
“Opera Redux: Porgy and Bess” will bring some of the best of Porgy and Bess to our
community. You’ll hear such favorites as “Summertime,” “I Got Plenty o’ Nuttin’,”
“It Ain’t Necessarily So,” and “I Loves You Porgy.”
Porgy and Bess is not only famous for its songs, but was a landmark work for its sympathetic
portrayal of African-American characters. In 1935, when Gershwin insisted on an all-black cast
for the opera’s Broadway premiere, he defied the norm of white actors in blackface.
“Opera Redux: Porgy and Bess” is directed by Lemuel Wade, who will also direct the
Cincinnati Opera full production at Music Hall in June.
A Community ARTS Gift to You. Your Admission is FREE.
Brought to you by ArtsWave and District A

CALLING ALL WRITERS
Over the past few months, several folks have
mentioned to me an interest in some sort of
writers group being established here in the
Presbytery. I know there are folks who are
writers, who have been published; there are also
folks who would like to explore that gift within
them in a safe and supportive place. Most of the
groups I am familiar with get together on a
regular basis (monthly, every other week, etc.)
and simply share what they are working on, what
their interests are, informational things like how
to get published, and how they write.
I would be willing to host such a group here at
Immanuel Presbyterian (which I think is fairly
central to the churches in the Presbytery. Tuesday
or Thursday afternoons are best for me, but
flexibility is always the key.)
If you are interested, please email me at
[email protected] and give me at least two
possible days / times you could meet, and I will
work on getting folks together for the first time.
This is a group for both clergy and lay folks.
