 UNISON SCRIPTURE
7:30 a.m.
Luke 24:13–31 (NIV)
13
Now that same day two of them were going
to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles
from Jerusalem. 14They were talking with each
other about everything that had happened.
15
As they talked and discussed these things
with each other, Jesus himself came up and
walked along with them; 16but they were
kept from recognizing him. 17He asked them,
“What are you discussing together as you walk
along?”They stood still, their faces downcast.
18
One of them, named Cleopas, asked him,
“Are you only a visitor to Jerusalem and do
not know the things that have happened there
in these days?” 19“What things?” he asked.
“About Jesus of Nazareth,” they replied. “He
was a prophet, powerful in word and deed
before God and all the people. 20The chief
priests and our rulers handed him over to be
sentenced to death, and they crucified him;
21
but we had hoped that he was the one who
was going to redeem Israel. And what is more,
it is the third day since all this took place. 22In
addition, some of our women amazed us. They
went to the tomb early this morning 23but
didn’t find his body. They came and told us
that they had seen a vision of angels, who said
he was alive. 24Then some of our companions
went to the tomb and found it just as the
women had said, but him they did not see.”
25
He said to them, “How foolish you are,
and how slow of heart to believe all that the
prophets have spoken! 26Did not the Christ
have to suffer these things and then enter his
glory?” 27And beginning with Moses and all
the Prophets, he explained to them what was
said in all the Scriptures concerning himself.
28
As they approached the village to which they
were going, Jesus acted as if he were going

UNISON SCRIPTURE
farther. 29But they urged him strongly, “Stay
with us, for it is nearly evening; the day is
almost over.” So he went in to stay with them.
30
When he was at the table with them, he took
bread, gave thanks, broke it and began to give
it to them. 31Then their eyes were opened and
they recognized him, and he disappeared from
their sight.
11:00 a.m.
Romans 12:1–2 (NRSV)
1
I appeal to you therefore, brothers and sisters,
by the mercies of God, to present your bodies
as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God,
which is your spiritual worship. 2Do not be
conformed to this world, but be transformed
by the renewing of your minds, so that you
may discern what is the will of God—what is
good and acceptable and perfect.
6:00 p.m.
Mark 8:22–26 (NRSV)
22
They came to Bethsaida. Some people
brought a blind man to him and begged him
to touch him. 23He took the blind man by
the hand and led him out of the village; and
when he had put saliva on his eyes and laid
his hands on him, he asked him, “Can you
see anything?” 24And the man looked up and
said, “I can see people, but they look like trees,
walking.” 25Then Jesus laid his hands on his
eyes again; and he looked intently and his sight
was restored, and he saw everything clearly.
26
Then he sent him away to his home, saying,
“Do not even go into the village.”

Domestic Spying
Plan Goes Too Far!
W
e are in the election season and
election-year rhetoric, and the
politics of fear is muddying the
waters of an important need to balance national
security concerns with the protection of our
basic civil rights.
The Bush Administration is using the
fifth anniversary of the 911 attacks to press for
congressional action to authorize military
tribunals for suspected terrorists (which was
rejected recently by the Supreme Court) and
to push for a National Security Agency citizen
surveillance program that would authorize
wiretapping without a warrant for cause.
Bills sponsored by Rep. Heather Wilson
(R-NM) [HR 5825] and Sen. Arlen Specter
(R-PA) [S 2453] would scale back the authority
of Congress to impose greater oversight of
the Administration’s surveillance program.
Rep. Jeff Flake (R-AZ) and Rep. Adam Schiff
(D-CA) are sponsoring a better bill that would
re-establish the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance
Court as the exclusive means to authorize do-
mestic surveillance.
Lost in the debate is the troubling fact that
neither the House Judiciary Committee nor
the Senate Intelligence Committee have been
provided with any evidence by the Administration
that the warrantless wiretapping program is
effective in deterring terrorist plots. Last month,
Sunday, September 24, 2006  © Sermons copyrighted by Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright, Jr.
a federal judge in Michigan ruled that the
Administration’s warrantless wiretapping pro-
gram is unconstitutional.
Contact your members of Congress and
urge them to hold more hearings on these
important issues of civil liberties. Urge them to
reject “quick fixes” like HR 5825 and S 2452
that would grant unchecked power for domestic
spying.
Help Improve
Native American
Health Care
I
t has been 14 long years since Congress
has made significant changes to the Indian
Health Care Improvement Act (IHCIA),
legislation that determines the quality and
scope of federally funded health care services to
American Indians and Alaska Natives.
A bill to reauthorize and update IHCIA
(S 1057) has now moved through committee
and awaits action on the Senate floor. But on
the House side, the bill (HR 5312) is stuck in
the Energy and Commerce committee, awaiting
an uncertain fate as election year politics move
security ahead of everything else on the House
calendar.
IHCIA’s updated provisions address many
health disparities in Indian country. The bill
offers new programs to close the health care gap
in tribal communities, stating that “Currently,
home health care, long-term care and hospice
 PASTOR’S PAGE
care are not readily available to most Native
communities. Indians must travel long distances,
only to be placed in facilities that are far from
home, culturally unfamiliar, and not conducive
to their well-being.”
The bill encourages more Indian people to
enter the psychology profession and funds youth
counseling in response to the epidemic of
Native youth suicides. It will correct some of the
severe scarcity of medical practitioners. The bill
updates cancer screening procedures and
addresses emerging health problems, most
notably HIV/AIDS services.
If you own a computer and have Internet
access, please click on
http://www.ucctakeaction.org/ihcia to send a mes-
sage to your members of Congress that it is time
for Congress to stop stalling and reauthorize
this important legislation. The UCC’s Council
for American Indian Ministry (CAIM) and over
30 tribal leaders are joining you in this action.
Who knows? If Indian Health Care is
improved, maybe black, brown and minority
Health Care will be right behind the Indian
effort in this country!

DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
ADVOCACY/CARE
MINISTRY
The month of October is Domestic Violence
Awareness Month. During the first two weeks
in October, Domestic Violence Advocacy/Care
Ministry will again display the Clothesline
Project. This project draws attention to the issue
of violence against women through the hanging
of T-shirts designed by women who are survivors
of violence or by the family members or friends
of women who have lost their lives through
violent acts.
The Clothesline Project also aids in the
healing of those who have been impacted by
personal violence. We encourage women who
have survived domestic violence, sexual assault/
rape, sexual abuse/incest, or violence due to
sexual orientation or political views to participate
by decorating a shirt to be displayed in October.
Any family member or friend of a woman who
has died as a result of this violence may decorate
a shirt in memory of their loved one. Confiden-
tiality will be observed for all those choosing to
participate.
For information, call
Anika Sterling (773) 297-1027 or
Kenya Jackson (773) 536-0905.

Stewardship…Results of a
Redeemed Life
What Is Christian Stewardship?
W
e talk about being stewards as follow-
ers of Christ, but just what does that
mean?
Some wise person came up with this statement,
“Christian stewardship is what one does after
choosing Christ as Lord.” I take that to mean
that when we become a Christian and choose to
live our lives with Christ as our leader, then we
will live so that our lives will be used in His ser-
vice. If God calls us to be in business, then we will
serve Christ there. If we feel led to be a teacher,
doctor, dentist or software creator, then our lives
will be an instrument for Christ in our work.
When Hurricane Katrina hit the South, a
Washington State doctor left his practice for
a few weeks in order to help hurting victims
in Louisiana. That was Christian stewardship
for him. At home, he sings in a church choir,
serves on various church committees and offers
a helping hand wherever needed in the church
and community - all in order to serve Christ as
a steward.
If Christian stewardship is what one does after
choosing Christ as Lord, then it is imperative to
say “Yes” to the Lord whenever and wherever
we see service in the Name of Christ is needed.
Obviously, stewardship involves the whole of life!
Your Friends in Service,
The Stewardship Ministry
