Thursday, February 9, 2012  Dinner at 6:30 PM , Speaker at 7:00 PM

Our speaker will be long-time member and philosopher Waldo Asp. Waldo’s topic will be nous contrasted to phenos. The concept of nous is that there is an essence (inherent quality of and by and for itself) that is the fundamental nature of everything. In contrast, the phenos is what we can see, hear, taste, sensually experience and scientifically test. What many do not appreciate is the enormous amount that we don't know about either the human body or the universe.

All men of the fellowship are invited to attend. If you wish to attend for dinner sign up in the basement. If you simply wish to hear the speaker, come at 7:00. Questions contact Bill McMartin or John Peloquin.

The Wilder Foundation is nationally recognized for the work they do in this area. All men and WOMEN of the Fellowship are invited to attend. If you wish to attend for the dinner at 6:15 sign up in the basement. If you only wish to hear the speaker come at 7:00. Questions contact Bill McMartin or John Peloquin.

  • Should the government ever subsidize art?
  • Should government ever censor art?

Annual Guest at Your Table Luncheon for the Unitarian Universalist Service Committee (UUSC).

This year we will be serving sub sandwiches, salad and cookies – all put together by the children and youth to raise money for the UUSC.  The children and youth work hard to get the food ready so you can eat right after church.  Come on downstairs and support our youth in this great service project.  In this service project the children and youth actually do something themselves to help raise this money.  They set the tables, put together the salad and sandwiches. If you need to hurry off we can pack your lunch to go.

The money goes to tangible products to enhance human rights.   We can only raise  the needed money if you come down and support our luncheon. 

At this luncheon we also kick off the Guest at Your Table project.  Fnd out more about training and education in nonviolent and civic engagement for youth

SPECIAL FRIENDS
Jan Fitzgerald, Director of Religious Education
January & February, 2012,  Adults and children write letters to each other
Sunday,  February 19, 2012,  Special Friends Breakfast

Sign up for Special Friends is open downstairs in the Religious Education section. Special friends will start in January 2012. We need both adults and children.

This long-standing tradition provides an excellent opportunity for the adults and the children of the fellowship to get to know one another.  Adults and children write letters to each other using secret names.  Children love getting to learn about another adult and adults learn about a specific child and his/her interests.

There is a wonderful breakfast on Sunday, February 19th when the secret friends meet each other. It is important that both the children and adults can be there that morning.

Please sign up downstairs. I will need one or two adults to help out with the delivery and sorting of letters.  Contact Jan Fitzgerald at 952 836-6001.

RUMMAGE SALE 2012
Karen Olson, Janet Stevens,  Sale Coordinators
Leslie Swenson, Volunteer Coordinator
Rummage Sale Reminder

The 2012 Rummage Sale is only a few, short months away!

(The sale takes place in August.  OK, “a few” is maybe a slight exaggeration.)

However, if you have resolved to:
  • reduce clutter
  • go greener
  • clean out the attic, basement, garage, spare room, store room or storage shed -
Please keep the rummage sale in mind when looking for a place to donate your stuff. Unfortunately, there is no place at MVUUF to store rummage before June, so you’ll have to stash the boxes and bags for a while longer. After the last service in June, however, we’ll start collecting for the next sale.

Our sale has developed quite a following and we hear over and over how people wait and watch for it. People love how much variety we have and that, of course, depends on your donations! Last year’s sale raised close to $7,000 and we’d like to keep that number growing year by year. So - if at all possible, box up and store your discards for those few, short months and in June you can get it out of the house!

SUMMER GOLF
Darrell Eager, Kathy Eager, Coordinators
Sundays, June, 2012 - Sunday, September, 2013
Golf will resume in June, 2012.

Summer golf was chock full of highlights this year.  Birdies, bogies, lost balls, heat and a few very humid days were par for the course.

George Fairman lost a two weeks due to a foot  injury on nine.  We all witnessed Jerry Gilliand’s “happy dance” a few times.
Harri Wisser dusted off her clubs and joined us for the first time in years.

Once again, we were warmly welcomed by the staff at Birnamwood and we all savored the constant improvements made to the beautiful course.

Our season ended with our annual awards breakfast banquet at Perkins.  We reminisced of rounds gone by and read silly golf quotes and laughed a lot.

MVUUF golf is not for summer (or golfers) only.  Join us on the “First Wednesday” in December for “putt putt” golf around the inside of the building. 

Next summer we look forward to NEW golfers – all skill levels welcome.

FAMILY HALLOWEEN PARTY
Jan Fitzgerald, Director of Religious Education
Sunday, October 30, 2011, 3:00 - 5:00 PM
We meet to carve pumpkins, play games, have snacks and visit the Haunted House. 

Every year the Junior High gathers and puts together a Haunted House with several levels of scariness: hardly any scariness for the youngest ones to a good spook fest for the older children.

We like to know how many people will want pumpkins to carve so we’ll have a sign-up for the Halloween Party with slots for people to help out. (We always need help with clean up.)

We need people to help with games and crafts for the party. Please sign up for a slot on the signup board downstairs on the counter.

Please have 7-12 youth bring in art work from home to be displayed. Thank you.

Wednesday, February 1, 2012, 6:00-7:30 PM
(Regularly meets the first Wednesday of the month)
Welcoming Congregation Committee
  will be sponsoring this First Wednesday event.  There will be pizza at 6:00 and the usual Current Events discussion for adults at 6:30 and a craft project for the younger ages as well as a video for those who want to attend.

The 24 minute video is titled No Dumb Questions.  This is a documentary about a family with three daughters ages 6, 9, and 11 whose Uncle Bill is becoming a woman.  They struggle to understand how and why Uncle Bill is becoming Aunt Barbara.  Their reactions are funny, touching and distinctly different. This film offers a fresh perspective on a complex situation from a family that insists there are no dumb questions. 

This film has been used with Our Whole Lives UUA program grades K-1/Grades 4-6.  For parents help in deciding if they want their children to see this video, refer to No Dumb Questions.    ---Carolyn Halverson, Welcoming Congregation Committee

ALL CONGREGATION BOOK READ
Ruth Keely, Adult Education Coordinator

Read during Summer 2011; discuss in September.
Last spring we started an all Fellowship read called The Latehomecomer: A Hmong Family Memoir by Kao Kalia Yang. It is a non-fiction account of a Hmong woman’s journey from the war-torn jungles of Laos to a new life in St. Paul.

On September 18th our Sunday program will be a speaker from the Hmong community talking about her experiences.

The following Sunday morning, September 25th, we will have a book discussion at 9:15 about both the book and the speaker.

It is not too late to read The Latehomecomer. If you have the book and are willing to share, please bring it to our first gathering and pass it on.

We chose this book because it ties in well with the Unitarian Universalist Association of Congregations study issue on immigration and because the book was written by a local author.

REV. MARK KIYIMBA ON GLBT RIGHTS
Carolyn Halverson, Coordinator, Welcoming Congregation Committee
Sunday, December 11, 2011,7:00 PM
Ugandan Unitarian Universalist minister Rev. Mark Kiyimba,  is the founder of the Unitarian Universalist church in Kampala Uganda.

Following the passage of the ANTI-GAY legislation in Uganda,  Rev. Kiyimba spoke out against this bill at great personal risk and mobilized Ugandans to support GLBT rights. This bill was spearheaded and funded by American Evangelists during an Anti Gay conference in 2009, led by Scott Lively.

Rev Kiyimba was exposed in the evangelical news and his life was threatened. The magazine Rolling Stone (no relation to the U.S. magazine) wrote an article entitled  “Hang  Them : They are After Our Kids”. Rev. Kiyimba is now a refugee, touring the U.S. to spread his message.

This program  is sponsored by the Minnesota Valley Unitarian Universalist Fellowship and the Oak Grove Presbyterian Church in Bloomington.  Both  churches  are  Welcoming Churches, open and affirming to persons of all sexual orientations.
