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

OSWEGO COUNTY HOSPICE SEEKING VOLUNTEERS FOR SOME VERY
IMPORTANT JOBS
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."

CONGREGATIONAL SURVEY
We are asking for your
ideas and feedback so that we may plan our future. The survey is available
at church. To request a survey via email or by mail, please contact
Janie Garlow at mjgarlow@aol.com or by
phone at (315) 436-2238 or Mary Perkins at 668-6719. Please return your
survey to Mary Perkins or the drop box on the East Room table by April 9. Thank

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
CALLING ALL ARTISTS!!!
The UUSC invites creative
members and supporters of all ages to submit a festive design for a new
UUSC card for the 2006 holiday season. Create a design that reflects the spirit
of the holidays, as well as justice, equity and compassion. Please visit www.uusc.org/holidaycards
for submission guidelines and to view last year’s award winning cards.
Submissions must be received by April 28, 2006.
WEDDING BELLS
On March 24th
Rev. Stoddard officiated at the wedding of Ann Seidenfuss and Brian DeSantis.
The ceremony was held at Arena’s Eis House in Mexico. Brian and Ann live in
Richmond Virginia with their children.
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.
