First Step: Grounded in the Present
Reverend Mary Ann Macklin
Martin Luther King, Jr. stated, "Faith is the first step even when you don't see the whole stair case." And one time Unitarian Henry David Thoreau wrote "The smallest seed of faith is greater than the largest fruit of happiness." In this worship service we will explore those aspects of faith that ground us in the present. From poetry and the arts to the justice issues of our times, we will ground ourselves in what calls us to the here-and-now. Please join us for our Getting Involved Fair after each worship service.
Getting Involved Fair: Sunday, February 8th
Lo oking for a way to get more involved in church activities? Tables will be set up by groups/committees who welcome your participation. This is a great opportunity for everyone to see the wide variety of activities available, and to talk with folks from these groups. This fun event will take place after each service. --Judy Bennett, Connections Coordinator

 MAM's Musings
I wasn't going to watch the Super Bowl. Neither of the teams I wanted to watch was playing. Sigh. Also, after Seattle's miracle win two weeks ago, I was growing tired of claims that divine intervention somehow determined the outcome of that game or any athletic event. Yet I am a sports fan and amidst all the shadow-side of sports, I still find the goodness it creates in people's lives. For example, see this recent Herald Times article about the unifying aspect of football in the life of George Taliaferro, available to H-T subscribers:
http://www.heraldtimesonline.com/news/local/bloomington-s-george-taliaferro-reunites-with-former-football-teammate-on/article_bce5c48d-154b-5aad-835d-83afa5cfd640.html
So Deborah and I watched the New England versus Seattle matchup. Admittedly, during the second half, we switched over and imbibed in Downton Abbey, which provided plenty of plot driven twists and turns. We returned to the Super Bowl with five minutes to go, and found ourselves confronted with a set of gridiron twists and turns. As time ran down, a Seattle player made a miracle catch near the end zone. I groaned, knowing that another spectacular Seattle victory would bring more claims of divine intervention regarding the play of the pigskin. However, in some rather karmic turns of events, the miracle catch was superseded by a bizarre interception, resulting from a questionable coaching call. The Patriots won and a great roar was heard from the snow covered lands of New England.
Faith. Faith is our theme for the month of February---whether in church or on the playing field, faith is viewed by many people in many different ways. For me, faith is not about divine intervention as much as it is about trust. Developmental psychologist and faith theorist James Fowler defines faith as an activity of trusting, committing and relating to the world based on a set of assumptions of how one is related to others and the world. Of note, for me the world does have transcendental nature; I simply find sports related divine intervention to be bad theology.
In terms of trust, of course, our trust is tested and broken time and time again, and we must discern, as adults, how to trust in life and go forward in an unpredictable world. As one of my colleagues wrote, "All of us know what it's like to lose our faith. We've been betrayed by a relationship, let down by our family and/or church community, or convinced that life just won't get better. Our greatest faith often involves the belief that life and others don't deserve our faith in them. But sometimes our doubts need to be doubted. Sometimes life and the people around us need to be given a second chance." Whether in response to a bad call by a trusted coach or something much deeper, faith calls us forward into the healing joy of life. I invite you to ponder how a circumstance or someone in your life merits being given a second chance in a manner that empowers you as you move forward.
Hike, MAM

Black Lives Matter and Racial Justice
Sunday, February 8
4pm in Church Library
Join Reverend Macklin and Reverend Wadkins as we deepen our conversation about racial justice and the #BlackLivesMatter movement. We view our time together as one of education and deep listening as well as preparation for Selma Sunday in early March.
Racial profiling, criminalization, police brutality, disenfranchisement, and mass incarceration of African Americans constitute today's legal system for institutionalized racism, discrimination, and exclusion in the United States. As Unitarian Universalists, we have the religious grounding, the resources, and the opportunity to make a difference. Guided by our principles, we are called to work for racial justice; to dismantle racism and other oppressions at home and in our larger society.
The #BlackLivesMatter movement began in 2012. We ask that you take time to read this "Herstory" of the movement in preparation for our time together.

 Intercultural Competency:
Who Are Our Neighbors?
Workshop March 27 & 28
Registration Now Open
Friday 6:30 - 9:00 pm
Saturday 8:30 am - 5:30 pm and 7:00 - 8:30 pm
at UU Church of Bloomington IN
$15 registration includes snacks, Saturday breakfast & lunch (dinner is on your own)
Facilitated by Rev. Dr Lisa Presley, Congregational Life Consultant for the UU Mid-America Region, and Rev. Adam Robersmith
During this workshop, you will learn about the Development Model of Intercultural Sensitivity. This model proposes that we have the ability to learn how to be more interculturally competent - that we go through stages of ability and attitudes, and that we have the ability to increase our abilities. It provides tools for learning in order to advance our competency. The model is about the "differences that make a difference" in every setting--whether that be race, class, culture, gender, sexual orientation, or any other difference that might be key in our interactions.
Space is limited for this workshop, and the registration deadline is March 20. Register and get details here. |

Walk through the Commons, see the displays and boxes filled with pasta, toiletries and other gifts and know that you are part of a congregation that is taking responsibility for the community in which we all live. The generous contributions of time, talent and resources given by the members of this congregation change the world.

Building a Culture of Generosity -- February 7
This workshop with Dori Davenport Thexton on Saturday, February 7 from 9:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. is designed to build and train a team of people - lay leaders and professional staff - to support the annual pledge campaign in your congregation.
Teams of five or more from each congregation who will support and run the pledge campaign will spend the day:
- Exploring generosity as a spiritual practice
- Imagining what their congregation would look like if it was truly generous
- Examining obstacles to creating the culture of generosity in their congregation
- Creating ways to enable members to experience the joys and rewards of being generous
- Learning about the vital link between mission and generosity
It is crucial that the teams be large enough to ensure success in bringing their experiences and knowledge home, hence the requirement of 5 or more. It is also very important that a key staff member - either minister or another professional staff member - be part of the team, since staff involvement in creating the culture of generosity is essential.
In addition to members of our congregation, UU congregations from around the MidAmerica UU Region are invited. Registration is $15 and is required. Click for More info

Power to the People! Solar Panels Save Energy and Dollars 
In 2014 our church used 48,143 kWh of electricity, which was 13,397.7kWh less than what we used 2010. This savings is due to upgrades to our facility and equipment due to our Green Spaces Initiative campaign and the resulting Green Maintenance Fund, our new sanctuary lighting, and to the thermostat setbacks that reduced both our heating and cooling of unoccupied spaces.
Our solar panels generated 30,012 kWh of electricity in 2014, two-thirds of which was sent to the grid, and the rest of which was directly used by the church, saving the loss of power along the power lines. So we created 62% of our electricity in 2014!
Dollar savings 2014 vs 2010:
$2,771.15 = 2014 Annual Electric Bill ($3,879.80 less than our 2010 bill).
$2,972 of the savings was due to the solar panel electricity production. (Net meter credit of $1842.08 + an estimated $1,129.95 saved by PV power we used directly.)

Maria Mitchell,
First Female Astronomer in the United States
Maria Mitchell (1818-1889) was born on Nantucket Island into a Quaker household. Her father was an amateur astronomer and principal of a local school. He encouraged young Maria (she preferred muh-RYE-uh as its pronunciation) to assist him during his astronomical observations and she became enthralled with making navigational and astronomical computations.
She became a teacher in 1835 and then librarian of the Nantucket Athenaeum. She read all its books on astronomy. In 1847 she discovered a new comet and her descriptions and promotion of her discovery made her internationally known among astronomers. She found doubts about Quaker beliefs which were then hostile to science, and she was expelled as a Quaker and shifted to attending Unitarian services. In 1865 she was hired by Vassar College to be a professor of astronomy. She taught there until 1888 and published articles on the movement of sunspots and the transit of Venus across the surface of the sun.
Mitchell told her female students "No matter where you are, nor what you do, you are a power. Your influence is incalculable." She was friends with Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Lucy Stone, and Susan B. Anthony and attended their women's rights conventions. She also was co-founder of the American Association for the Advancement of Women. Mitchell never married and lived a private life, mostly with members of her family. --Elof Axel Carlson, Congregational Historian

A Bill in the Indiana State House That Could Kill Private Rooftop Solar Power Development
ACTION ALERT: SB 1320
Dear friends,
This Wednesday, Feb 4, the House utilities committee will most likely have their hearing on SB 1320. As written, HB1320 would effectively kill private rooftop solar by allowing the utilities to credit solar or wind customers at about 75% less than what they pay for electricity.
The hearing is 1:30-4:30 on Wednesday. People attending who oppose the bill are asked to wear red, so that our numbers are clearly visible.
If you sign up here I believe you will receive updates about last-minute schedule changes:
http://hipl.nationbuilder.com/indiana_state_house_hearing_on_hb_1320?utm_campaign=hb1320hearing&utm_medium=email&utm_source=hipl
I will also try to have updates posted on the UU Facebook page.
Finally, if you'd like to carpool to Indy, contact me and I will try to put you in touch with others.
