MINISTERIAL MUSINGS

Dear friends,

Spring has sprung, at last. It is great to see the sun shining as I type these musings...great to take a moment of quiet to consider the beauty which surrounds us. It is great to be alive.


Sometimes it is easy to get caught up in the busyness of the days. Listening to the news can be downright discouraging. Health problems have touched us too closely for comfort. And yet, in this season of spring, we need to find reason for hope. It may mean digging down deep, reconnecting with our roots and our principles. It may involve reaching out to support each other, or it may involve asking for support. The church has been a hub of activity recently.... many wonderful activities with which to engage....a friendliness at the fellowship hour after Sunday services....a great effort by many to put on a wonderful Roast Beef Dinner which welcomed many from the community...teams going to bowl in support of the Syracuse Peace Council's Strike for Peace...an up-coming service and merchandise auction in which we can celebrate each other's gifts and talents while raising money for the church...the list goes on.  Something that comes to mind amidst the activity is the importance of taking some quiet time to treasure the church and what it means in our lives and to notice the new-comers amongst us. We can always look for new ways to support the work of our church... we can invite friends to come... and be sure to welcome people we don't know as well as those we know well.

It continues to be a pleasure and an honor to serve as your minister. Happy Spring!

                                                                                                                                                With love, respect and gratitude, Margaret Hart

We have a constant need for volunteers who can spend a few hours a week staying with patients, allowing care givers the opportunity to leave their home to shop, run errands, visit with friends, etc. The volunteer job requires a 36-hour training that will be held at the Oswego County Health Department, 70 Bunner St., Oswego, NY starting Thursday, April 20th. For more information contact Colleen Anderson, Volunteer Coordinator, at 349-8259.



MAUNDY THURSDAY SERVICE

What Christians now celebrate as Maundy Thursday was the beginning of Passover, when Jesus went to share dinner with his friends, a meal sometimes referred to as "The Last Supper". Many Unitarian Universalist churches celebrate Maundy Thursday as a time and occasion of memory, not only of Jesus, but of all those men and women who have dedicated their lives to the cause of human good and justice, often putting themselves at risk as they did so.

You are invited to meet at the church at 6:30 p.m. on April 13thfor such a service of remembrance, led by Andrea Abbott and Rev. Libbie Stoddard. This year, religious calendars coincide. Maundy Thursday and the start of Passover come together. There will be reading and music and we will share grape juice and matzoh’s - the bread of haste and affliction.



SOCIAL JUSTICE COMMITTEE

The Social Justice Committee is very happy with your response to the Lost Boys presntation. Besides the great food, your enthusiasm and respect for their story and their project was heartwarming. Many thanks to Judy Linder for making this possible. Keep in mind that Judy will be helping them set up more speaking engagements to local groups. Hopefully we can keep track of their progress in funding a community center in their homeland.

A year long series of programs about the Onondaga Nation is described on a poster in the East Room. The next program is April 11 at Syracuse Stage.

Adopt-a-Highway sign up sheet is on the East Room table. Please help on Earth Day, Saturday, April 22nd at 9:00 a.m.

I have information about the Unitarian Universalist-United Nations Envoy. If anyone is interested in learning more about this group's global projects to eradicate poverty, or to apply to their internship program, see me or visit www.uu.uno.org.

Syracuse Stage is producing "Menopause the Musical" in May. It sounds like a lot of fun for both sexes. If we can sign up 10 people, we can get a group rate.......see me.

The Syracuse Peace Council's "Strike for Peace' was supported by 2 teams from our church on April 1st. We encourage you to donate as a sponsor. I will collect anytime this month.

The UUSC has a campaign in April to increase US Government action in Darfur, Sudan. You can help by signing a postcard at church. They will be sent, in mass, to George W. Bush at the end of this month. The goal is 25,000 cards.

We are now enjoying Equal Exchange Coffee after church service. It is purchased through the UUSC. I will take individual orders. This may mean mixed cases. Find an order sheet in the dining room that explains cost and requirements.

Next Social Justice Committee meeting is on April 9th at 9 a.m. and everyone is invited.

CHALICE LIGHTER SUNDAY MAY 7th

The St. Lawrence District Chalice Lighter program was established in 1989 "to extend Unitarian Universalist principles and faith by promoting the growth of congregations within the St. Lawrence District." More than 30 churches, including our own, have been helped with supplementary funding for projects intended to start new congregations, assist in building current congregations, secure professional religious leadership, and programs aimed at growth and renewal.

A brochure from the District says, "To become a Chalice Lighter to answer ‘calls’ is one of the most affirming responsibilities that a Unitarian Universalist can undertake. Any member of a Unitarian Universalist congregation or Unitarian Universalist group can become a Chalice Lighter by filling out a simple form and forwarding it to the Saint Lawrence District office. Twice yearly calls are sent out from the … office asking individual Chalice Lighters to respond with an amount that they have previously pledged to pay for each ‘call’, [usually $15]. … Any amount is gratefully received. All of the money sent in by Chalice Lighters for a particular call will go to the individual UU group, congregation or society which has applied for the Chalice Lighter grant. Funds may be used in a variety of ways; to build or remodel physical facilities, [such as our handicapped accessibility], to help fund a position such as a minister or RE personnel or for other needs of the group….Put simply, the money is used to strengthen Unitarian Universalist ideals and values in a particular community, but giving strengthens us all."

This year we celebrate Chalice Lighters Sunday on May 7th. Brochures and information will be available at that time or contact Mary Perkins at 668-6719 or marychet@earthlink.net if you have questions.

"LIGHTING THE CHALICE, advancing the light, spreading the word,

Sharing the faith is what we are all about."

COUNTING THOSE IN THE PEWS

Our organist Rita Thornton reports that on March 12th there were 45 people in attendance for the service. On March 19th 28 people, on March 26th 40 people and on April 2nd 38 people attended the service.


UU CIRCLE NEWS


Our service & merchandise auction will be coming up quite soon (Sunday, April 23rd). We need everyone's help to make this a wonderful auction, one which will create a great atmosphere of giving and receiving. This has been our biggest fund raiser of the year in the past, and we can make this a huge success again this year if everyone pitches in. We're trying something new this year to reward those who donate to the auction, purchase items at the auction, and those who bring a friend (who doesn't normally attend church) to the auction by raffling off a beautiful amethyst cathedral. For each item you buy or donate you will receive a free raffle ticket (items over $100 qualify for 2 tickets). You will also receive a free ticket for every friend you bring ( and 2 tickets if the friend purchases 2 or more items). You may also purchase raffle tickets for $1 each, 7 for $5, !5 for $10, or 34 for $20. We would greatly appreciate it, if people would try very hard to get their items in by Sunday, April 9th. In order to shorten the auction, we will select certain
items to be put in a silent auction that will conclude shortly before the regular bidding auction.
The silent bidding will run from Apr. 9 - Apr. 23rd the day of the auction (at 11:45 a.m.) We will serve sandwiches at the auction during coffee time and the open bidding auction will start at noon (don't forget to invite a friend - you both get a free raffle ticket for attending). The raffle drawing will take place at the conclusion of the bidding.

Our Herkimer Diamond Collecting Trip will take place on Saturday, April 15th. If you liked collecting shinny rocks as a kid, you'll love this trip. Collecting normally costs $8 for adults and $6 for kids, however, we've arranged for a special rate of $3.50 for all ages if you preregister with Tim Hart before the trip (refunds will be available if you can't make it due unforseen circumstances). Registration forms will be available during coffee time after church or call Tim (439-2541) if you can't make it to church (it's fine to bring friends). We will meet at our church at 7:25 a.m. and leave soon after people get a chance to arrange car pooling (if they choose to do so). Here are some suggested items to bring on the trip: bag lunch, beverages, sun screen, bug spray, zip-lock bag for small diamonds, a bucket etc. for larger specimens, a rock hammer (if you
have one), 3-tonged garden cultivator, a mat to sit on, and perhaps a sledge hammer. It takes a little more than 2 hours to drive to Crystal Grove Diamond Mine, near St. Johnsville. Each driver decides when their group will head home (people normally stay 2-6 hours depending on their interest).

We are tentatively scheduling a kayaking/canoeing outing on Saturday, April 22nd (Earth Day!) either before or after the highway cleanup session. See Tim Hart if your interested. Our destination will most likely be Panther Lake, possibly followed by a dip in Oneida Lake near Janie & Ellen's residences. Hope you can join us.

The annual plant sale is April 30th. Plan to dig up and share those plants from your yard and to buy something new and different to replace it. The plant sale will go on both before and after services. This is also the day of the canvas luncheon.

Many thanks to all of you who make our activities possible, especially Marcia, Larry, Ann, and Betty.

                                                                                                                                                                                            Tim Hart, UU Circle President

IT’S CANVASS TIME!


April is the Church's time to plan for the next fiscal year. Our budget year starts in June, and so does our projected income and expenses. Most of us don't have a written budget, but we have an idea of what our monthly expenses are from month to month. We know approximately how much
cash comes into and goes out of our households. The Church, however, has a formal, written budget, which is its estimate of its income and expenses for the year. The budget is a plan that supports the works of the Church. In order to have a realistic plan, we ask the members of the church to tell us the amount they budget to give to the church in the form of a pledge. It takes about $125 a day to operate the church. The good news about our operating expenses is that the Board has been successful in containing them. Capital improvements including upgrading all four furnaces have brought our heating costs under control. The other good news is that our pledges and donations covered our operating expenses. That is due to the generosity of our church members and friends. This church is our spiritual refuge, our community, our social conscience. Its physical existence is possible because of the financial support of its members. I would like to thank all of you who gave so generously last year.

The church will be asking for your pledge for the next fiscal year. I'd like to ask those members who do not formally pledge to consider pledging this year. Not only will it make it easier to match income with expenses, we may be able to add some programs or events if the pledges exceed our estimated expenses. The Board is always interested in your suggestions and ideas.

Thank you for supporting our church both spiritually and financially,

                                                                                                                                                                    Judy Linder, Canvass Chair



GENERAL ASSEMBLY


The General Assembly of the Unitarian Universalist Association of churches will be happening this year in St. Louis, MO, from June 21-25. You can see more information on-line at UUA.org or in a booklet at church in the East Room. Please let Janie Garlow know if you are planning to attend and want to be a delegate from our church.



UUSC SAYS "THANKS!"


The Unitarian Universalist Service Committee thanks our congregation for contributing Guest at Your Table gifts totaling $428. They wrote: "Thank you again for your generous contribution to our work promoting human rights and social justice. Your support will make a real difference in the lives of
people in the United States and around the world." If you haven't yet become a member of the UUSC and want to, you can see Nancy Hallock for membership material.




W.I.S.E. MEETINGS

There are just 2 wise classes left in April. On April 4th we’ll have Mexican light ideas and then on April 18th Asian Fusion. Also we plan to come on June 13th to do a class on Herbal Vinegars. Each person will make and take home a bottle of home made herbal vinegar. The cost will be $15 for the class.

                                                                                                                                                                                    Cynthia Schell



RETURN THOSE BOTTLES

Our church has a bottle account with the North Country Redemption Center in Central Square. Take your returnable bottles to the center or if you prefer, Larry Linder has graciously offered to return them for you if you bring them to him at church. The value of the bottles redeemed will be credited to our church. If you choose to return them yourself, you may enter the center from either Route 4 or Route 11. The center is located next to the Gun Shop.

The center's hours are Mondays, 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.; Wednesdays, 9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.; Thursdays, 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.; Fridays, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.; and the first and third Saturdays of the month, 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. The center is closed on Tuesdays and Sundays, and on the second and fourth Saturdays of the month.


UU-MINISTERS AND PRESIDENTS MEET

We had a very productive gathering of UU ministers and presidents on March 29th in Central Square, with representatives from Auburn, Central Square, Cortland, MMUUS, and Watertown. We missed having a representative from FUUSS. We discussed many things, which I will try to report on below:

How often and where to meet? We talked about the idea of meeting separately as ministers and as
presidents, but we really enjoy the mix of the roles. We decided not to attempt to meet in April-due to other already scheduled commitments but many will try to meet during the Stewardship conference May 20th and possibly plan to do an inter-church followup session on stewardship. We decided to meet again as a group on Wednesday June 14thwith the focus on social justice, and that those coming would bring a description of what is going on in our congregations.

Other things we discussed were:
Stewardship
Death Penalty
Summer services and possibly exchanging speakers

We came up with some ideas for future discussions, and it was suggested that we know the focus of a meeting ahead of time so we can come prepared to discuss a particular topic (though other things can come up too). Ideas for future focus include:


Budget planning / management / finance
Small Group Ministry
Growth
Green sanctuary / 7th principle
Religious Education

                                                                                                                                                                                    Rev. Margaret Hart




UNIRONDACK

The 2006 Unirondack brochure is here! If you are looking for a summer camp experience for kids that provides UU values, an exceptional staff-to-camper ratio, a warm welcoming community, and lots of fun, check out the brochure on the church literature table. Unirondack also offers a number of wonderful adult and family programs, with new programs being added every year. Some highlights in this year’s program include: canoe camping and backpacking in the Adirondack Park, a new UU Pagans’ Retreat, Men’s and Women’s Retreats, as well as a fantastic line-up of Theme Leaders for our youth camps. Come enjoy some relaxing time in an idyllic setting of unspoiled wilderness!



EMAIL LIST

We have weekly e-mail announcements of coming events at the church. If you are not receiving them and would like to, please contact Janie Garlow at 436-2238 or at mjgarlow@aol.com. Mary Perkins has offered to print the announcements and send them to folks who are not on line.



HOSPITALITY HELPERS NEEDED

Everyone is invited to sign up in the East Room of the church for hospitality and greeter duties for our Sunday morning worship services. Hospitality duties include providing a snack and juice and hosting the social hour. Greeters welcome people at the door, pass out the orders of service and take up the collection.

We also need people to sign up to bring flowers for the altar. Rita says the price for her to get the flowers has been lowered to $20. Those bringing flowers are asked to sign the sheet on the table in the East Room stating in whose honor or in whose memory the flowers are provided.


APRIL BOARD MEETING HI-LIGHTS

Mike DiGiovanni explained that the Centennial Committee is actively working on setting up lay leaders and outside speakers for Centennial Sundays. Please contact him or a committee member with suggestions or if you would like to be a lay leader.

Canvassing will be starting soon and pledge cards will be sent out. The Canvass luncheon will be April 30th. Treasurer Chet Perkins noted that we will need approximately $3,000 more in the operating budget to meet expenses this fiscal year. If you are able to pledge even a few dollars for the year it will be a big help.

The East Room Window will be removed from the building on April 11th for repair. The contractor says it will take approximately 1 month to complete. Plexiglass and/or plywood will be used to cover the window area while it is being repaired.

Sheila Emborski will be planting hostas around the handicap entrance to enhance its appearance. If you are dividing yours this spring and would like to donate any extras you have please contact Sheila.

We will soon be selling tickets for the Interreligious Council’s "Duck Race". Briefly, it is a fund raising event where each organization can sell chances on racing rubber ducks and prizes will be given to the winners. The tickets will be $5.00 with $2.50 going to the Interreligious Council and $2.50 going to our church. Keep an eye out for more information soon about this fun event.
