Reflections from Rev. Ann Marie
|
I used to begin at the beginning of every new year with a list of resolutions. My list was not much different than many of my friend's. Lose weight. Work out more. Read more books. Be nicer. Really, really practice my spiritual practice! Only on very rare years did I make it very long with that list of what I had hoped to do in the new year in front of me. Most of the time the list seemed to just get lost or forgotten. But, if truth be told, it was more likely that I threw the list of resolutions away because staring at it meant that I kept being reminded of how much I had failed to keep even one resolution!
The resistance within me of even looking at that list was based on my not wanting to feel bad. My resolve to not feel bad became way more important than whatever changes I had wanted to make. Recognizing the power of my resistance to feeling bad, I now just try to find as many ways as possible to feel good about what I have done that's positive. I no longer make resolutions to stop doing whatever is not positive. Feeding the positive works for me.
I think it may be the same for church culture. It is not creating lists of "we will" or "we won't" that helps us move joyfully into the future, but rather appreciating and expressing all that we mean to each other in the present in the most positive way possible, as well as remembering all the positive that we've done in the past that will move us ever closer to who I know we all want to be.
Yours in faith,
Rev. Ann Marie

 One of the pleasures I've always enjoyed as an educator is trying something new, and seeing it take off, sometimes in an unexpected direction. And one of the luxuries I've also enjoyed as an educator is being given the latitude to admit when what I've tried hasn't worked, and then being able to find something different. Such is the situation for our class for children aged 3rd-6th grades. For "The Simpsons & UU," we had two strong curricula to draw from, as well as the episodes from the tv show, but it became clear that this was not a good fit for many of our kids at this time. So we are re-booting YRE for our 3rd-6th graders, using Katie Tweedie Erslev's curriculum, "Spirit of Adventure." Thanks as always for your input. I look forward to partnering with everyone in the new year. And I look forward to trying "The Simpsons & UU" again in the future!

From the Congregational Vice President Michelle Lee
|
 Reflections from the Floor I'm sitting on the floor in the sanctuary in the early hours of January 1, 2016. I'm wearing fluffy owl-covered pajama pants and a tinker belle blanket around my shoulders. My hair looks like I slept on the floor (which I did) and I'm starting my second cup of coffee. We've celebrated New Years at the UUCG Family Overnight around the labyrinth for 6 years now. Last night, in addition to eating, talking, crafting, and gaming, I did a lot of reflecting. In 2016, what are we letting go? What are we continuing? What are we beginning? Please contact Michelle Lee, vice-president, if you'd like to share a cup of coffee and conversation on the floor. ;-)

Adult Faith Formation
|
As a Religious Educator, one of my favorite books was Maria Harris's Fashion Me A People . She writes, "A church does not have an education program; a church is an education program." During the remainder of January, we will explore what she had to say, and how it can apply both to our congregation as a whole, and to our personal faith formation.
January 10: Exploring Community: Harris begins with a discussion of community, because, she says, without community none of the rest of it makes any sense. In this congregation, the word "community" came most often when people were asked to describe what they liked about our church, so clearly we have a good start! How are we educated by being in community in church? How are we educated by the church to be in community? How has being in this church community in particular contributed to your own spiritual development?
Watch the weekly announcements for details on what will be covered in the remaining Sundays in January, as I will be fashioning each week based, in part, on the preceding Sunday.
February 7: The Healthy Congregation Committee will continue to lead the Faith Formation class on the first Sunday of each month. The February class will be titled "Giving From the Heart", and we will explore how we can be genuine and take joy in both giving and receiving.
Child care is available if requested in advance.

2016 Annual Commitment Time
|
You must give yourself to love if love is what you're after;
Open up your hearts to the tears and laughter,
And give yourself to love, give yourself to love.
-Kate Wolf
Many years ago while attending a women's retreat, I learned this song. The lyrics have stuck with me through many life changes. When I began thinking about what to say about the 2016 ACT (Annual Commitment Time, also known as the pledge drive), this song came to mind. Every spring our church conducts its annual pledge campaign. The pledge campaign, on a very basic level, is how we fund our church's budget so we know how to plan for the following year. What we receive in pledges informs the Finance Committee how much they can use to fund each of our programs in the church.
But on a spiritual level, we are giving ourselves to love. I love our church and I love Unitarian Universalism. Everything I do for UUCG is from a place of love and I feel confident in saying that the Board of Trustees feels the same way. My financial contribution to UUCG, and the hours I put into volunteering, are from loving our church the way it is and from my dreams for our church into the future. I love who we are and I love who we are becoming.
As we move forward into the pledge campaign, and you begin to consider your pledge amount for the 2016-2017 church year, I encourage you to "give yourself to love." Give yourself to the love you feel for UUCG, both the church itself and the community you have found here. Consider the ways we have been there for each other and for our community. And remember that it's all about love.
--Karen Madrone

Workshop
|
POSTPONED! UUCG and the Mental Health Association of Greensboro will offer a workshop on QPR: Suicide Awareness Training.

Participants in the workshop will learn to recognize the signs of suicide crisis and how to use the three steps of Question, Persuade and Refer to direct the person to help. Tuition/donation of $15 is requested. A limited amount of financial assistance is available; those seeking it may contact Rev. Alderman in confidence. All proceeds go to the Mental Health Association. Say "Yes" to saving the life of a loved one.

Coffee Volunteers
| |
Volunteers are needed for Coffee Hour in January. It is a gift of a time and joy we can all share. Anyone can sign up; the sheet is on the bulletin board just outside the kitchen, next to the 'Flowers' sign-up. Serving coffee is easy, and we will be glad to go through it with anyone interested. 
We would like to express a sincere "Thank You!" to the great folks who have volunteered to provide coffee after Sunday service.

Justice Action Team Update | |
Monday Night Dinner at Urban Ministry
On Monday, November 2, 6 volunteers from our church and 4 from Hinshaw United Methodist church served a meal of chili, fruit salad, corn-bean salad and homemade cookies to an  appreciative group of residents of the Greensboro Urban Ministry night shelter. Thanks for your financial support and labor. Want to get involved on the first Monday of each month? Contact Ken Knight
Taking it T-UU Streets
On Sunday, Dec. 13, the children and youth in our YRE program (preschoolers thru high schoolers) assembled 40 carebags for the needy, as well as using their creativity to personalize messages of love. Through the generosity of our congregation-the carebags included individual peanut butters, a juicebox, bandaids, vitamin C lozenges, granola bars, peanut butter crackers, raisins & more. Within 2 weeks, those bags had been picked up by our members and friends to distribute to those who are in need. This Justice Action Project is a monthly hands-on activity that helps our youngsters think about those who stand on the side of the street with signs, and act in a tangible way to help us live our 1st & 2nd UU Principles. Your material and/or financial support of this ongoing project is most welcome. Carebags will be assembled again on Sunday, January 10 by our "Circle of Youth." For more information, please contact Cindy Dillard (uucgre@att.net).
Holiday Family Gifts
You are a generous congregation! Due to your donations, we gave $525 in gift cards to a family temporarily residing at Partnership Village. The family received the cards in time to use for purchasing Christmas gifts for their children after perhaps paying for some necessities. It was gratifying to be part of the gift effort. Some of you made sizable donations; notify Sara Bourquin at sbourquin@triad.rr.com if you would like a charaitable gift letter for your taxes.
Share Half for 2016 The Justice Action Team has selected these worthy organizations to receive the Share Half (Share the Plate) for 2016. Information on the new recipients, Mustard Seed and Family Support Network, follows. January Weaver House of Urban Ministry (First Monday meals) February Interactive Resource Center and Servant Center March Faith Action International House April Mustard Seed Community Health Clinic May Community Housing Solutions June Guilford Child Health and Triad Adult and Pediatric Medicine July Urban Ministry August Mental Health Association September Piedmont Interfaith Council and Family Support Network October Animal Rescue and Foster Program November Hospice and Palliative Care of Greensboro and High Point Hospice December Triad Health Project Mustard Seed Community Health Clinic The Mustard Seed Community Health Clinic, started by Beth Mulberry, M.D., is located within the Cottage Grove community in East Greensboro. Dr.Mulberry's ambition is to provide quality medical services to the people in the community who are uninsured and under-served. She has developed a large network of financial and volunteer support for this clinic, including Ken Knight of UUCG. In addition to providing access to quality health care, she hopes to promote community gardens and safe public places where people and their children can meet, play and exercise. Ken hopes that we will support this endeavor through the Share the Plate, or Share Half, practice. Family Support Network of Central Carolina This is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing support and resources for families of children with special needs. All of their services are free of charge. Julie Potts of UUCG volunteers with this organization and is appreciative of our support through the Share Half program.

You are greatly appreciated! --Becky Floyd

Healthy Congregation Committee
| |
Part of the charter to the Healthy Congregation Committee was to develop a Policy and a Procedure for responding to complaints. The Board approved a formal policy a few months ago, and this month the Committee finalized the procedures we will use if someone brings an issue to us. Generally, we anticipate that most issues will be resolved directly by the people involved, but sometimes someone may want to discuss options with one of us, or have us assist in dealing with a complaint. If you would like to see a copy of the Procedures, contact Marie Houck as chair of the committee. |

Strategic Planning

It is time for the next phase of Strategic Planning, the one in which you get to dream big!
Here are the 3 questions to ponder:
1. Who do we want to be as a church in 5 years?
2. What do we want to be known for?
3. How can UUCG meet congregants' needs in terms of personal growth/religion/spirituality?
When you are ready to answer please to to the form found here >>>>

A Ride to Church
Mariah is the young woman with Downs Syndrome who has recently started coming back to our church. She and her Mother, Liz Brown, were former members. Liz went on to become a UU minister and now has advanced dementia and is living in an excellent facility in Greensboro. Mariah has no family who can care for her and she is living in a nice group home in Southeast Greensboro.Several of our members have been bringing her to and from church on Sundays for several months. Mariah is very happy to be among us and she helps out with the children in our RE program.One of our drivers is finding it too difficult to commit to bringing her. If you want to help out talk to me at church or call me at 336/327-7214. Ken Knight
NICARAGUA ECOTOUR FOR 2016
When I was a member of the UU Fellowship of Raleigh, I led several fascinating trips to this wonderful project in San Ramon, Nicaragua. One of the members of the Raleigh church, Diann Irwin, is recruiting for a trip in late February. I hope some of our members can accompany her. See details below.
February 27 - March 5, 2016 Fact Sheet
Cost: $1400 plus airfare. The cost covers all in-country costs for the week-long tour. Airfare looks to be about $800/person. There are many options currently. In order to be in Managua by 2 pm for pick up, it is likely that participants will need to fly to Managua on February 26. But do not book a flight until we are sure there are enough participants to go.
Return flights must leave after 1 pm on March 5.
How to commit to the trip? Turn in a $200 deposit, reservation form and liability waiver. Although malaria has largely been eradicated in Nicaragua, it occurs infrequently. We are not going during the rainy season but insect repellent on the skin and clothing as well as closed shoes and long pants are encouraged. You may want to check at a travel clinic to be sure you have all immunizations and your medications in order.
The itinerary last year consisted of 4 nights at the eco-lodge (FEV) and 3 nights in San Ramon staying with a village family. Activities at the eco-lodge included hikes, visiting a tree nursery, cooking lessons, bird watching, visiting a school, visiting the coffee farm, butterfly trail, an activity with some students, and more. Time in the village included a tour of San Ramon, a dance performance, visits to local centers, hikes and swimming, jewelry making, craft market
