Nassau supported Valentina in her year of service in New Orleans from 2012 to 2013 as part of the Young Adult Volunteer (YAV) program. Valentina was kind to send us a note about her experience and asked that we share it so that other young adults would also consider spending a year in service and intentional living as YAVs.
Young Adult Volunteers hitting the water on their spring retreat
My YAV year (2012-2013 in New Orleans) was an incredible experience for me. It brought me to a brand new city that I’ve been lucky to call my home for the past four years. I made some of my closest friendships through PCUSA’s Young Adult Volunteer program and owe my current job to the experience and connections I made during that year. One of the key parts of the YAV program is its infamous “intentional community” living. As hard as it is to live intentionally in a house with other Christian young adults, it is even more valuable. I learned so much about myself. I know that sounds generic, but it’s true. Living in an intentional community taught my confidence and communication. It showed me the importance of honesty in communication and honesty to your own emotions – two things that are widely ignored in the “real world.” Without this experience, I know I would be in a much different place right now and much less prepared for social, emotional, and spiritual success.

It’s so great to read about the connection between Nassau and the YAV program. I actually didn’t know the extent of Nassau’s on-going support to the program. Nassau should get credit for most of the success of my YAV year. It would have been a lot more difficult to complete the program without the support, both financial and (more importantly) spiritual, provided to me by the church. Nassau Presbyterian has also been a part of the feeling of “home” for me. As I keep moving forward and become involved with other congregations in other presbyteries, it’s such a comfort to know that I can always come home to Nassau.
Best,
Valentina

Princeton University’s Community Action Week at Westminster Presbyterian Church
Insiya Essani, PU Class of 2020
Princeton University Pace Center’s Community Action Week (CAW) allows first year students to work with local organizations in small groups of ten to fifteen students guided by trained group leaders. The incoming students of the Princeton University Class of 2020 were invited to live at Westminster as they took part in serving our community. Westminster has been hosting CAW for 13 years. In the past, 100 to 150 PU students participated. This year Pace Center maximized student participation by reaching over 523 students. Their primary focus is to increase the number of students who are aware of the communities that surround them.
The CAW Education Trenton: Nurturing Bright Future group worked in conjunction with the Westminster Church and Community Life Center to help facilitate two events: the annual Back to School Supplies Giveaways and Carnival. These events invite over 1,500 families via door to door fliers, fliers at local schools, and personal calls to participate and take advantage of the resources offered by the church and community center.
Westminster leaders dedicated the first day of CAW to orienting the students. This included visiting the Bethany Garden, the War Memorial, and the South River Walk Park. David Byers helped design this national award winning park which sits above the Route 29 tunnel, and incorporates the history of Trenton via multiple double arches and granite markers.
On the second day, Princeton students and three CA leaders helped organize the annual free backpack and school supplies giveaway for Get SET students, and church children. Mary Beth Charters brought a car filled with backpacks and school supplies from Nassau. We are all very grateful to Nassau, Wright Memorial, Westminster Presbyterian churches, and individuals who donated beautiful backpacks filled with lots of school supplies! This event also included playing board games and doing educational activities, thereby, allowing incoming students to gain a more personal interaction with the children.
The second event was the carnival. This event included traditional carnival games, free prizes, face painting, dancing, and a moon bouncer. CAW students wore funky hats and led the entire event. The sounds of laughter and eyes filled with excitement were clearly evident. At both events children registered for the Get SET After School Program, and adults registered for The English as a Second Language School at Westminster.
“An education at Princeton University emphasizes leadership, and I have realized that being a leader does not mean having a glorious title or changing the world, but rather a true leader is one who is able to embody humility and works with his or her own community before aiming to change the whole world. Two such leaders are Pastor Karen Hernández-Granzen and Linda Konrad Byers who work WITH the community instead of FOR the community. Their work is a constant reminder that for long term improvement it is vital to be a member of the community and to embrace the positivity present within the community rather than constantly highlighting only the negativity,” said Denay Richards.
Many students are leaving this experience inspired to come back and continue to work with the Get SET program and the community throughout the course of their education at Princeton. This opportunity will be a constant reminder of effective leadership as students embark on their academic journey.
UPDATE from Cetana Educational Foundation:
Cetana on the Move. . .
Thanks to some generous donors, the Cetana English Proficiency Center (CEPC) in Yangon is moving to new quarters. Construction is underway on Cetana’s new school in downtown Yangon. When the move takes place later this fall, there will be more space for more students, a location within the transit hub, and a fresh, open, and attractive environment for learning. Cetana students and staff are excited and eager to make the move. Building out on the third floor of the teeming Theingyi Market involves turning a derelict, loft-like space into a modern, efficient school. Cetana will have four 25-student classrooms, a reception area, director’s office, administrative space, teachers’ room, computer lab, library and a small kitchen. Surprisingly, the rent for our new location will be substantially less than the center’s previous quarters.
Furnishings are what will make the new school truly welcoming. The two informal spaces–student lounge and teachers’ room–should be areas that encourage sociability, with comfortable sofas and chairs. Projection equipment would be an important teaching tool; internet connections would let teachers and students get online and access a variety of online learning tools. These important refinements will support casual interactions and learning in and outside the formal classroom setting. If you would like to help Cetana with this wish list, please consider a contribution. Donations can be made online at https://cetana.org/donate/
And in Kanpetlet. . .
The Cetana-Metta Partners English language program in Kanpetlet, Chin State, Myanmar, which Nassau Church mission funds are supporting, is making progress. U Ba Win, who came to speak at Nassau Church last summer, was in Kanpetlet this past spring with a former Bard student, Aung Mon. They interviewed teachers in the local public school and assessed their fluency in English in order to design specific training to suit their abilities. An intensive training, directed by an American ESL trainer and Myanmar trainers, will take place in March 2017. In addition to teacher-training opportunities, there is a critical need for more teaching aids—textbooks, grammar and vocabulary books, and audio-visual materials. With funding from Nassau Church, Ba Win and Aung Mon were able to take copies of the government textbooks so that each child has a copy. (The government supplies only a textbook for each teacher. ) Additional workbooks and other teaching materials are being sent from time to time.
Come on October 7 to Celebrate the Partnership
The mission committee hopes members of the congregation will come celebrate the Nassau Church-Cetana mission partnership the evening of October 7 at 6 pm in the Assembly Room. Aung Tun, a former Cetana scholar and new Cetana board member, who now works for the Asia Development Bank, will talk about the country’s progress toward democratic reform. Rangoon Restaurant, in Philadelphia, will provide a classic Burmese meal of Ohn no Khao Swe, and we will also have a chance to thank Nancye Fitzpatrick and Bob Hendrickson, both of whom traveled to Burma with Lois and Jack Young and have remained committed to Cetana. Tickets for dinner and the talk are $25, and all proceeds from the event will benefit Cetana students. Advance reservations are necessary. Contact Sue Jennings (609.683.4435; ).
UPDATE from Villages in Partnership:
In July, Stephanie Patterson traveled to Malawi to witness the difference that Villages in Partnership (VIP) is making in the lives of people there. Stephanie was immersed in the partner villages, hearing stories such as how a goat given by VIP, made possible by a $50 donation, could change the life of a family and allow them to put an iron sheet roof on their house or send a child to school. Thank you to everyone who contributed items for the trip. Stephanie was able to see in the faces of the villagers how the support of Nassau Presbyterian, along with God’s grace, is impacting the quality of life, and immense amount of gratitude the people of the Sakata region of Malawi have for every gift, no matter how small. They were very much appreciated!
Liz Heinzel-Nelson, Director of Villages In Partnership and Stephen Heinzel-Nelson Pastor of Allentown Presbyterian Church will be preaching and teaching at Nassau Presbyterian Church on Sunday, September 25, 2016. Mark your calendars.
At Nassau, we like to see for ourselves the fruit of our gifts and commitment to VIP as a mission partner. Watch this video for the great need, the important work, and the loving Malawians who put helping each other above all else. Stephanie Patterson (summer of 2016) and Joyce MacKichan Walker (summer of 2015) saw firsthand what it means to walk hand-in-hand with sisters and brothers in Christ.

ASP in Kentucky
Appalachia Service Project
From July 10-16, 33 of us drove to Warfield, KY for a week with Appalachia Service Project. At three work sites we worked on roofs, floors, insulation, tiling, stairways, water lines, and hearts. We had so much fun with sawzalls, speed squares, and each other as we lived a simple life of service and ministry. God was good and worked on us too and we’ve all come home freshly built for the things God is calling us to. Special thanks to our awesome adult leaders who discovered that a touch of heaven can be had in overalls and safety glasses. And very fine work by everybody at “Nassau Tool & Equipment.”
Beyond Malibu
Beyond Malibu
Far away in the Coast Mountains of B.C., 14 of us from Nassau got lost in the alpine wilds of granite and glaciers. And yet, led by the Holy Spirit, Jesus Christ, and Nassau Intern Travis Niles, we safely summited Mount Albert and made it back home again. Hopefully you’ve seen some pictures, seen the glow in a hiker’s eyes, and perhaps have been inspired to take a step beyond your ordinary routine. In grace and community we sang on the summit, prayed in the shadows, and basked in the rising of the son. And then we came home exhausted and slept.
The Adult Education Committee invites you to participate in Parker Palmer’s free, 45-minute course on ChurchNext.tv between September 5 and 19.
We are in the midst of what may be the most polarizing and contentious elections in recent U.S. history. Many observers note that the political rancor and rhetoric has reached all time highs, injecting unprecedented fear, division, and unease into our culture.
How do we make sense of this? How do people of faith respond? How do we remain calm and centered amidst our difference and tension, taking our roles as peacemakers, and even prophets, seriously?
Parker Palmer
Educator, author, and activist Parker Palmer has a few ideas. He has written extensively on faith and democracy issues. In this course, he offers thoughtful insight into how we might approach divisive political issues with grace and grit.
Classes at 9:15AM in the Assembly Room unless otherwise noted.
Tolerance in an Intolerant Age: What Should Christians Say?
John Bowlin
September 11
Can we tolerate commitments we despise, activities we consider unjust, persons and lives we find harmful or vile? We are told that tolerance is a virtue, that a liberal democracy requires a tolerant citizenry, a people who can live among differences they cannot endorse, that they might even consider abhorrent. But we worship a God of justice, truth, and love. Can we be faithful to this God while tolerating injustice and enduring falsehood? Can this response to difference bear witness to this God’s love? John Bowlin, the Stuart Associate Prof. of Philosophy and Christian Ethics at Princeton Theological Seminary, has been a member of NPC since 2008, along with Mimi, Nicholas, and Isaac. He teaches moral theology, and started thinking about toleration after attending a cockfight in Collinsville, OK, in May of 2000.
Young Adults in Ministry
Emily Kent & Alyson Kung
September 18
Come and hear how two college graduates serving as PC(USA) Young Adult Volunteers have worked with the homeless, women, and children. Then examine the various issues, challenges, and joys they encountered. This is their first time to present their story to a congregation. Alyson and Emily spent the last year in South Korea serving the city of Daejeon through teaching English, working in a women’s shelter, a homeless shelter, and a soup kitchen. As Young Adult Volunteers they learned about the culture and political atmosphere of South Korea with a critical eye towards US involvement. Nassau Presbyterian sponsored their work and calls them friends.

“Through my weaving, I work to expresses my dreams, my memories, the overlapping cultural influences of my life in the United States, and my aspirations for the future. The traditional elements repeated in different forms throughout my textiles are a means of connecting with, celebrating, and preserving the rich and fascinating Guatemalan culture of my childhood.” Armando Sosa was born into a weaver’s family in Guatemala. As a young boy he was given the task of guarding newly dyed threads drying on the grass of the riverbank; by the age of sixteen he was working on a compound-harness loom. Now a resident of the Princeton area, his tapestries are exhibited widely and he was named “Artist of Exceptional Ability” by the United States Government.

After a review of the earlier chapters, he will pick up at Chapter 14. The Corinthian congregation wrestles with doctrinal and ethical issues in conversation with their “founding pastor” Paul. Within his correspondence, Paul offers us compelling good news in his understanding of the cross, the resurrection, worship, and life together in Christian community.
Entry to Maclean House, the yellow house next door to the church building, is through the rear garden door. Bring your own Bible or pick one up underneath the flat screen monitor on the first floor of the church near the kitchen.

Nassau in Malawi
Liz Heinzel-Nelson
September 25
Jesus’ call to care for the poorest of the poor led Liz Heinzel-Nelson and her family to live for a year in Malawi, Africa. While there she met Sydney, one of the one million orphans living in the 4th poorest country in the world. When she returned in 2009 she helped to found Villages in Partnership (VIP), a Christ-centered non-profit organization working to lift Sydney and 19,000 others out of extreme poverty. Liz will share stories, strategies, challenges, miracles and how the gospel is powerfully changing lives today. Liz Heinzel-Nelson is Executive Director of VIP. She grew up in Princeton, younger sister to Loretta Wells, and now lives with her family in Allentown, New Jersey. She leads teams to Malawi several times a year.
