Or you may download it there.
To walk in the Spirit is to be filled with the Spirit, and some results of the Spirit’s filling are thankfulness, singing, and joy (Ephesians 5:18–20; Colossians 3:16). Those who walk in the Spirit follow the Spirit’s lead. They “let the word of Christ dwell in [them] richly”

(ADOSC) South Carolina Diocesan Men’s Group Pivots from Hiking to Relief Assistance
What had originally been scheduled as a fall Diocesan Men’s Hike was transformed, this past month, into a Hurricane Helene Assistance trip. Seventeen men from 11 different churches travelled to the Lutheridge Camp and Conference Center in Arden, NC, to help make it ready for them to reopen.
“We had a group that planned to go hiking,” says Les Sease, Diocesan Coordinator for Men’s Hikes, who organized the trip. “But the trails were closed so we pivoted. I’m so glad we did!”
The men travelled caravan-style on October 10, 2024 with cars, trucks and trailers full of water, gas, food and other supplies.
“While the roads were passable, Lutheridge was a mess,” says Sease. “Piles of debris lined the main road.”

(Local Paper) 45,000 dockworkers are now on strike at 36 US ports, including South Carolina’s
For the first time in nearly 50 years, dockworkers at ports along the East and Gulf coasts have gone on strike.
Members of the International Longshoremen’s Association walked off the job at 12:01 a.m. Oct. 1 — the minute their six-year labor contracts expired — with three local Charleston union affiliates picketing outside S.C. State Ports Authority terminals for better wages, job security and “respect.”
Nearly 20 people stood along Morrison Drive in Charleston, across from the SPA’s Columbus Street Terminal, holding high signs that read “No work without a fair contract” and “Automation hurts families: ILA stands for job protection.”
Randy Campbell, a union vice president, said that members of his local ILA 1771, and two others, 1422 and 1422A, will remain outside of the Wando Welch, North Charleston and Columbus Street terminals until negotiations are done.
This morning, at 12:01 a.m., 45,000 union dockworkers represented by the International Longshoremen’s Association (ILA) at major ports along the East and Gulf coasts went on strike.

(Local paper) Helene pummeled parts of SC with wicked winds and driving rain; at least 19 people died.
More than 1.3 million South Carolina businesses and households were without power at one point during the storm, according to PowerOutage.US. It could take until the middle of next week for power to be fully restored across the state, said officials from Dominion Energy, Duke Energy and Santee Cooper. A final timeline for the work remained unclear, as crews had only just begun to make assessments of damage at noon Sept. 27.
Of those outages, about half were in six Upstate counties, including all 12,000 residents of Fountain Inn.
SC Dominion Energy President Keller Kissam compared the widespread outages to those caused by Hurricane Hugo in 1989.
“Life is not gonna be back to normal until probably the middle of next week from a power standpoint, just because of the sheer damage that we have,” Kissam said.
At least 13 people have died across South Carolina due to Tropical Storm Helene. Here's what we know about the storm's impact in the state.https://t.co/IvuVWYNF2z

The Rev. James E. Hampson RIP
We give thanks for the life and ministry of the Rev. James E. Hampson who died Thursday, September 5, 2024. Hampson served as the Rector of St. Philip’s Church, Charleston from October 4, 1987 until September 1, 1999.
He was born in Shreveport, Louisiana, on February 2, 1937, and graduated in 1959 from the University of Oklahoma where he met Sarah Elizabeth Oden, his wife-to-be. He received his Bachelor of Divinity from the Episcopal Theological School in Cambridge, Massachusetts, in 1962. Hampson was involved in a range of ministries. He was a co-founder of SAMS-USA (Society of Anglican Missionaries and Senders), an original trustee of Trinity School for Ministry (Now Trinity Anglican Seminary), and a trustee of FOCUS, an organization committed to Christian leadership in private schools.
Prior to serving at St. Philip’s, he was the rector of St. John’s in Huntington Valley, PA, a parish of more than 800 communicants. Before that, he had served as the rector of parishes in Massachusetts and Pennsylvania.
Following their time in Charleston, he and his wife, Sarah, retired to Tallahassee, FL. where they were active members at St. Peter’s Anglican Cathedral.
An obituary and information regarding funeral arrangements have not yet been released. We will send those out once they become available.
Depart, O Christian soul, out of this world; In the Name of God the Father Almighty who created you; In the Name of Jesus Christ who redeemed you; In the Name of the Holy Spirit who sanctifies you. May your rest be this day in peace, and your dwelling place in the Paradise of God.

(Local Paper) South Carolina expects another million residents by 2042
South Carolina will grow to nearly 6.4 million residents by 2042 — if the state’s latest projections prove accurate — and just a handful of counties will account for most of the population growth.
Five counties could see their populations soar by 49 percent or more from 2024 to 2042, a pace of growth likely to strain roads, schools and public services.
Horry County tops the list with an expected gain of 216,662 more residents, which means a 53 percent population increase.
South Carolina – the fastest-growing state in the nation last year – expects another million people by 2042.

Recap of the ACNA 2024 Provincial Assembly
More than 20 clergy and laity from our Diocese attended the ACNA Provincial Assembly held at the end of June, where we worshipped, conducted the business of the province, and witnessed the passing of authority to the new Archbishop, Steve Wood.
“I loved being here,” said Janice Breazeale, a delegate from St. Matthew’s, Fort Motte. “It was a wonderful experience. The thing that amazed me more than anything is how much Archbishop Foley had accomplished in 10 years.”
Delegate Justin Johnson, who is the Director of Camp Jubilee, said, “The best part, for me, was the ability to reconnect with old friends from around the province, to make new friendships, to hear what the Lord is doing in other places outside of our diocese, and to be reminded of how diverse the Kingdom of the Lord is.” Look for additional news and reflections in an upcoming Jubilate Deo.
