Numbers 12:1–15 (NRSV)
1
While they were at Hazeroth, Miriam and
Aaron spoke against Moses because of the
Cushite woman whom he had married (for he
had indeed married a Cushite woman); 2 and
they said, “Has the Lord spoken only through
Moses? Has he not spoken through us also?”
And the Lord heard it. 3 Now the man Moses
was very humble, more so than anyone else on
the face of the earth. 4Suddenly the Lord said
to Moses, Aaron, and Miriam, “Come out, you
three, to the tent of meeting.” So the three of
them came out. 5Then the Lord came down
in a pillar of cloud, and stood at the entrance
of the tent, and called Aaron and Miriam; and
they both came forward. 6And he said, “Hear
my words: When there are prophets among
you, I the Lord make myself known to them in
visions; I speak to them in dreams. 7Not so with
my servant Moses; he is entrusted with all my
house. 8With him I speak face to face—clearly,
not in riddles; and he beholds the form of the
Lord. Why then were you not afraid to speak
against my servant Moses?” 9And the anger
of the Lord was kindled against them, and he
departed. 10When the cloud went away from
over the tent, Miriam had become leprous,
as white as snow. And Aaron turned towards
Miriam and saw that she was leprous. 11Then
Aaron said to Moses, “Oh, my lord, do not
punish us for a sin that we have so foolishly
committed. 12Do not let her be like one

stillborn, whose flesh is half consumed when it
comes out of its mother’s womb.” 13And Moses
cried to the Lord, “O God, please heal her.”
14
But the Lord said to Moses, “If her father
had but spit in her face, would she not bear her
shame for seven days? Let her be shut out of
the camp for seven days, and after that she may
be brought in again.” 15So Miriam was shut out
of the camp for seven days; and the people did
not set out on the march until Miriam had been
brought in again.

I samuel 3:1–10/ Mark 4:35–41
(New century version)
1
The boy Samuel served the Lord under Eli.
In those days the Lord did not speak directly to
people very often; there were very few visions.
2
Eli’s eyes were so weak he was almost blind.
One night he was lying in bed. 3Samuel was also
in bed in the Lord’s house, where the Ark of the
Agreement was. God’s lamp was still burning.
4
Then the Lord called Samuel, and Samuel
answered, “I am here!” 5He ran to Eli and said,
“I am here. You called me.” But Eli said,
“I didn’t call you. Go back to bed.” So Samuel
went back to bed. 6 The Lord called again,
“Samuel!” Samuel again went to Eli and said,
“I am here. You called me.” Again Eli said,
“I didn’t call you. Go back to bed.” 7Samuel
did not yet know the Lord, and the Lord had
not spoken directly to him yet. 8The Lord called
Samuel for the third time. Samuel got up and
 Unison Scripture
went to Eli and said, “I am here. You called
me.” Then Eli realized the Lord was calling the
boy. 9So he told Samuel, “Go to bed. If he calls
you again, say, ‘Speak, Lord. I am your servant
and I am listening.’” So Samuel went and lay
down in bed. 10The Lord came and stood there
and called as he had before, “Samuel, Samuel!”
Samuel said, “Speak, Lord. I am your servant
and I am listening.”
Mark 4:35–41
35
That evening, Jesus said to his followers,
“Let’s go across the lake.” 36Leaving the crowd
behind, they took him in the boat just as he was.
There were also other boats with them. 37A very
strong wind came up on the lake. The waves
came over the sides and into the boat so that it
was already full of water. 38Jesus was at the back
of the boat, sleeping with his head on a cushion.
His followers woke him and said, “Teacher,
don’t you care that we are drowning!” 39Jesus
stood up and commanded the wind and said
to the waves, “Quiet! Be still!” Then the wind
stopped, and it became completely calm. 40Jesus
said to his followers, “Why are you afraid? Do
you still have no faith?” 41The followers were
very afraid and asked each other, “Who is this?
Even the wind and the waves obey him!”

genesis 33:1–11 (NRSV)
1
Now Jacob looked up and saw Esau coming,
and four hundred men with him. So he divided
the children among Leah and Rachel and the
two maids. 2He put the maids with their children
in front, then Leah with her children, and
Rachel and Joseph last of all. 3He himself went
on ahead of them, bowing himself to the ground
seven times, until he came near his brother. 4But
Esau ran to meet him, and embraced him, and
fell on his neck and kissed him, and they wept.
5
When Esau looked up and saw the women
and children, he said, “Who are these with
you?” Jacob said, “The children whom God has
graciously given your servant.” 6Then the maids
drew near, they and their children, and bowed
down; 7Leah likewise and her children drew
near and bowed down; and finally Joseph and
Rachel drew near, and they bowed down. 8Esau
said, “What do you mean by all this company
that I met?” Jacob answered, “To find favor
with my lord.” 9But Esau said, “I have enough,
my brother; keep what you have for yourself.”
10
Jacob said, “No, please; if I find favor with
you, then accept my present from my hand; for
truly to see your face is like seeing the face of
God—since you have received me with such
favor. 11Please accept my gift that is brought to
you, because God has dealt graciously with me,
and because I have everything I want.” So he
urged him, and he took it.

time to exit iraq

Dear Trinitarian,
In the Senate debate on the FY 2007 Defense Authorization Bill this week, Senator John Kerry
(D-MA) and others will put forward two amendments with specific plans for U.S. withdrawal from
Iraq. The first will call for an up or down vote, requiring that American troops be brought home
safely from Iraq by the end of 2006.
The second will be a non-binding sense of the Senate calling for withdrawal during the next
18 months. Now that a new national government is in place in Iraq, and with growing evidence
from Iraq that the U.S. presence is feeding, rather than
containing the insurgency, the time to get out is now. Log on
to www.ucctakeaction.org/exitiraq to send a message to your
senators, supporting these two amendments.

UCC Justice and Witness Ministries Joins New National Peace Campaign:
The United Church of Christ Justice and Witness Ministries has endorsed a new initiative,
the Declaration of Peace, a pledge to
take peaceful steps for the immediate
withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq
and to engage in nonviolent protests if
a plan to end the war is not established
and begun by September 21, 2006—
International Peace Day.
If the September 21 deadline is not met, Declaration of Peace signers pledge to engage
in peaceful action in Washington, DC, at Congressional offices and other sites throughout the nation
from September 21–28. To read the declaration of peace, learn more, and sign up for the campaign
online, visit the website at www.declarationofpeace.org.

support kennedy amendment

to increase minimum wage
Dear Trinitarian,
The battle to increase the federal minimum wage once again came to a head this past week, when
Senator Edward Kennedy offered an amendment in the Senate to the Department of Defense
authorization bill to increase the federal minimum wage to $7.25 an hour, a $2.10 increase from the
current stagnant wage floor.
Last week, a House sub-committee passed a minimum wage increase amendment to the Labor,
Health and Human Services appropriations bill in a bi-partisan vote, but the House leadership
refused to allow the bill’s consideration by the full House.
As people of faith, we are called to advocate for justice and to ensure fair wages and working
conditions for workers. The United Church of Christ has long held that work should keep people
out of poverty, not keep them in it, and increasing the minimum wage is an important first step to
ensuring that work provides a living for everyone.
The current minimum wage has failed to keep pace with the increased cost of living over the
years. Stalled at $5.15 an hour since 1997, a person working a full-time minimum wage job will earn
$10,700 in a year, nearly $6,000 below the federal poverty line for a family of three.
In the nearly ten years since the last increase, $5.15 has been losing its value, forcing families to
make difficult decisions between buying groceries and paying rent.
This increase in the minimum wage is desperately needed by millions of working Americans who are
struggling to make ends meet. Log on to www.ucctakeaction.org/minwage to send a message to your
senators urging them to support the Kennedy amendment to increase the federal minimum wage.
Call your senators today at 1-888-355-3588 to tell them to give working America a raise!
The United Church of Christ is working to increase the minimum wage at the state level in Ohio,
Arizona, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Montana and Colorado. We have already won increases in
Arkansas, Michigan and West Virginia. For more information, visit the UCC sponsored Let Justice
Roll Living Wage Campaign at www.letjusticeroll.org.

 TO DO JUSTICE
Rev. Reginald Williams, Jr.
Over the past 10 years, Advocate Health
Care has spent over $605 million on capital
improvements for hospitals which service
affluent, predominately white communities
(Christ Hospital in Oak Lawn, Good
Samaritan in Downers Grove, Good Shepherd
in Barrington and Lutheran General in
Park Ridge). During the same time frame,
Advocate has spent only $47 million in capital
improvements on the four hospitals (Bethany in
Chicago, Trinity in Chicago, South Suburban in
Hazel Crest, and Illinois Masonic in Chicago),
which serve mainly low- and no-income
individuals.
In no uncertain terms, this racist policy is
nothing more than what Rev. Marshall Hatch
termed racial redlining. The well-being and
lives of whites are still over and above the
lives of blacks and browns. The spending of
funds to increase the health chances of whites,
while doing very little in the black and brown
neighborhoods, which need health care the
most, is racially despicable. What is even more
heinous is that Advocate calls itself a ministry
of healing. Advocate is benefiting from the
relationship with ELCA/UCC, which ensures
its tax exempt status. In return for that tax
exempt status, Advocate is supposed to
provide benefits for the community such as
low cost or no cost health care to the poor and
underinsured. With a $60 million gap in the tax
Sunday, June 25, 2006 12 © Sermons copyrighted by Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright, Jr.
breaks received, and the amount of community
benefits given, Advocate is clearly not living up
to its end of the bargain.
Advocate’s stance on capital investments in
black and brown communities begs the question
of the ELCA and UCC denominations: Why
are we in relationship with an organization
which benefits from its relationship with us,
yet institutes policies and procedures which are
directly opposite of that which we have declared
we believe ($605 million in capital expenditures
for wealthy white communities, while only $47
million for black and brown neighborhoods)?
ACTION ITEMS
1. Call CEO Jim Skogsberg at 630-572-9393
and demand that capital expenditures be
boosted in black and brown communities to
equal or exceed that of the wealthy
white communities.
2. Boycott Wal-Mart & Sam’s Club.
Thoughts for this week:
Power concedes nothing without a demand.
—Frederick Douglass
