"Raising the Roof Beams!"

May 4, 2014

Calling one and all (that's YOU!)

to the first celebration of participation at UUCM in at least 5 years!

Please join us on this Sunday May 4th to celebrate all that we currently are doing. Come learn about ongoing committees and activities. Get inspired to join the activities, committee work and numerous other places where you can contribute. Bring your passions and calendars so you can consider where you might best fit into our efforts to grow and strengthen our community.

And while we are engaged in this all important volunteer planning, we will also be singing a passel of good old songs which will spur our creative spirits and passions. There are activities we need to develop as well, so come join in the fun and song and find a place to make a commitment to our common future! Let us keep our faith strong and vital, trust in the grace among us and raise the roof beams of our liberal religious community to new heights!  Onward and upward...

Children's Seder April 6th: A delightful ritual celebration of freedom: All children ages first grade and up are invited to join UUCM's Paul Steinman in a children's celebration of Passover. We start in the sanctuary as usual, then go to the Wright room after being sung out. Parents welcome too.

Our Nursery Care Provider Heidi Eberle is leaving us to spend more time with family. Sunday April 6th is her last Sunday. We will have a thank you party for her down in the Nursery after the service. Please come celebrate Heidi's work with us for the past year and a half. Heidi says,

"I have enjoyed getting to know you and your wonderful children.  I will miss them very much.  As you may have heard I will be spending more time with my family on Sundays. Seems to be the only day free for them. Thank you all for your kindness and trust. As Roy Rogers would say, 'Happy Trails!'"

April 13, 2014 Social Justice Luncheon

Speaker: Mark Bachelder - of Pachamama Alliance, will give us an overview of this collaborative organization which is dedicated to transforming the systems and structures that separate us. The alliance is actually generating a critical mass of conscious commitment to a thriving, just and sustainable way of life on earth! Mark is an environmental activist and general contractor. He is literally committed to making a difference in the world.

The Social Justice (and catering) Committee will prepare the luncheon. However, pot luck offerings will be greatly appreciated.

Please join the group to see the Mountain Play presentation of South Pacific on June 7. Carpool from the Smith Ranch Park n Ride at noon. Bring a water bottle and lunch. We will drive to Tam High in Mill Valley to board buses to the theater. The play starts at 2 pm. Open seating in an open air amphitheater with rock benches. You may want to bring a seating pad. A hat and sunglasses is also recommended. Please email thomas.ervin@comcast.net if you want to attend. Based on the numbers, we may qualify for a discount. The early bird price is $35.00.

Easter/Spring Bonnets: This year let's all break out our most festive bonnets for our Easter Sunday Flower Communion service on April 20th.  Creativity and fun is highly encouraged. For both adults and children.

For inspiration and perhaps a few supplies, stop by the special craft table in the courtyard following the service on the next two Sundays. Have an extra hat or any Springlike craft supplies you'd like to donate for others to use?  Drop them off at the table. Monique Webster

Our next meeting is April 16 at 7:30 in the Clara Barton Room.  Our selection is Blonde by Joyce Carol Oates. This is a fictional account of the legend of Marilyn Monroe which "comes provocatively alive in this powerful tale of Hollywood myth and heartbreaking reality. Marilyn Monroe lives-reborn to tell her untold history . . .  of the intricate inner life of the idolized and desired movie star as only the inimitable Joyce Carol Oates could paint it." (Amazon)

All members and visitors are welcome to join our discussions.
