Faith and Founders
Rev. Martha Hodges preaching
with Rev. Lucy Bunch and Mary Howard, Worship Associate
July Birthday Recognitions at the Chalice Lighting
When people talk about returning to the values of the Founding Fathers, what are they really talking about? What were those values actually? And what difference does it make? Rev. Martha will consider what is known about the diverse religious beliefs of the founders of the American republic, and will ask why the answers to such questions are relevant to us as liberally religious people and to modern Americans.
July 10
UU Principles in Perspective
Members of the UUSS Religious Services Committee
with
Special music by Rev. Lucy
Introduction of our intern, D. Scott Cooper
Candles of Joy and Sorrow
The seven principles that signify Unitarian-Universalism have special meaning to all of us. Our ministers and members of the Religious Services Committee think about them a lot. Hear some of their perspectives as Rev. Lucy Bunch and the Worship Associates swap roles in this special lay-lead service.
July 17
Ouch! Living with Micro-Aggressions in Our Midst
Rev. Roger Jones, preaching, with Linda Roth, Worship Associate
Special Music by Keith Atwater
Black Lives Matter forum after the service
Much better than a punch in the face, a micro-aggression is like a paper cut. It's an insult, a slight or a presumption that puts another person in a category-or plainly puts them down. It can happen to anyone and it does, all the time. Sometimes it's funny. But when it happens, over and over, to persons based on their gender, social role, religion or ethnicity, it's hurtful. Let's explore ways to bring more presence, grace and awareness to our very human interactions.
July 24
Eschatology and Star Trek
Rev. Lucy Bunch, preaching, with Christopher Jensen, Worship Associate
Milestones, Joys and Sorrows during the Service
What is the future of the human race? Eschatology is a branch of theology that is concerned with the final destiny of humankind. Can we imagine a destiny as described in the TV series Star Trek where, under the Federation of Planets, most beings live in cooperation and acceptance in a socialist utopia? Rev. Lucy ponders the possibilities for the human race from the perspectives of the twenty-first, twenty-second, and twenty-third centuries.
July 31
Celebrating the Summer Harvest
All Ages Service
Rev. Lucy Bunch with Worship Associates Molly Stuart, Linda Roth
and Jim Eastman
Special musical presentation by the RE singers!
Come celebrate the bounty of the summer harvest at this service for all ages. We will hear stories, songs and poems about gardening, and celebrate the bounty of the earth with a "tomato communion." What could be better than that! Bring something from your garden to share and take away a treat from someone else.
August 7
You Have Changed Us: Blessings and Farewell
Rev. Roger Jones, Rev. Lucy Bunch and UUSS High School Graduates
Charlotte Selton, Departing Worship Associate
Special Music
Congregational Vote after the service on Black Lives Matter
We will hear from several of our high school graduates as they make their way into young adulthood. Come to hear from them and be blessed by their words of wisdom and honesty. Come also to bless them on their journey.

Shared Offering Recipient in July
|
|
Every month we give half of the Sunday service offering to a local not-for-profit. UUSS members vote every year to choose 12 community partners that embody our values and our mission to be a healing force. In
April we sent $1,953 to the UU Justice Ministry of California; in May we sent $2,482 to Welcome Home Housing. Thank you! Our shared offering recipient in July is the Children's Receiving Home. This organization is committed to positively impacting the lives of children, youth, and families affected by abuse, neglect, behavioral health issues, and trauma.

Senior Minister's Message

Sabbatical News and Plans
By Rev. Roger Jones
"How soon do you leave?"
Folks have been asking me: "Are you ready for your sabbatical?"
"I thought you'd be gone by now!"
A clarification: My vacation weeks and General Assembly travel right now are not part of the sabbatical, but what I do every summer. An added bonus this summer is a 20th anniversary pilgrimage to the Unitarian Church in Hungary and the Transylvanian region of Romania, July 22-August 2. Consider going on such a trip next year. Click to learn more.
The Sabbatical
: The congregation generously grants sabbatical leave as part of my letter of agreement. I've confirmed with the Board that I will take my accumulated six months in the fall and into 2017. The sabbatical is a time of renewal, reflection and learning for a minister.
My Plans
: I'll take November and December to do research and to write my thesis. I'll be back at UUSS in January, and hope to defend my thesis at Pacific School of Religion. In late January I will begin a visit to the UU Church of the Philippines, and will serve as the pilgrimage minister for a 12-day trip by North American UUs to the Philippines in early February. Consider being one of those UU pilgrims while I'm there! E-mail me for more info.
I may travel to Korea, India, Mexico or Europe, depending on schedules and finances. I also hope to make one or more spiritual retreats and read one or more books cover to cover. I'll spend two April Sundays and the week in between them at the UU Congregation of Phoenix, covering for my stellar colleague, Rev. Susan Frederick-Gray, as she travels as part of her campaign to be elected president of the Unitarian Universalist Association in 2017.
I'll be back at UUSS by June 2017. For a congregation as well as the minister, a sabbatical is a time of renewal. Members, volunteers and staff colleagues see and remember what strength and generosity exist among them, and bring those gifts to the fore.
Here at UUSS
: Acting in the senior minister role, Rev. Lucy will be supervising our administrative staff as usual. She will add oversight of staff in our music and Religious Education ministries and will mentor our full-time seminary intern from September through May. She'll be preaching more, officiating at more weddings and funerals, and be doing all the other kinds of magic we have come to value, like Spiritual Deepening Circles. So she needs your help! We all do!
The Part You Play
: For starters, consider how you might do visits or phone calls to members with health challenges, and let me know if you're interested in training soon for that. Next, stay abreast of news in the newsletter, on www.uuss.org, and on our Facebook page.
Also, if you have not made a financial pledge for this new fiscal year, please get a 2016-17 Operating Budget Pledge Form and make a generous pledge. All your gifts of time, talent, money, presence and kindness will keep the momentum going. Thank you!
Yours in service,
Rev. Roger Jones, Senior Minister
P.S. Black Lives Matter forum:
Sunday, July 17, 12 noon to 1:30 p.m. Please come to learn and reflect on this movement and what our solidarity will mean in advance of the August 7 vote. There will be tables staffed after the service on July 10 to hear your questions and ideas. Volunteers also will receive donations to purchase a banner in expectation of a yes vote.
Where's Rev. Roger in July and August?
Office Hours July 11-July 20: Monday, Wednesday, Thursday 11 a.m.-6 p.m. Sabbath day is Tuesday. Writing on Friday and Saturday. Absences: Having visited family and friends in Indiana and New England after attending the General Assembly of the Unitarian Universalist Association, I'm back July 8. I leave July 21 for a religious pilgrimage with other UUs to Budapest and Hungarian-speaking Unitarian villages in Transylvania, returning August 3.
A personal note:
I cut my vacation short to attend the memorial service for John Shefelbine, a CSUS professor and a respected expert on teacher education, children's language learning, and literacy. John was a joyfully generous person, compassionate activist, avid cyclist, and member of the Friends Meeting. He was a gay father of three and a grandfather of five, and a dear friend to me and so many others, and I will miss him.

Assistant Minister's Message
|
|
|
Summertime feels languid to me. Longer days, warmer weather, slower pace ... sort of. I often feel that the pace of work and projects goes faster than it should for the season, faster than is healthy. We are both reviewing the last and planning for the next church year, so I often feel that I am living in both the past and the future, without a lot of awareness to the present. I have taken to using a mantra on my labyrinth walks that helps me to focus on the present moment, and takes me away from my whirling thoughts. "This path, this step, this moment", I say over and over with each step along the path to the center of the labyrinth, releasing, receiving, returning. Here and now. I look at the beautiful trees, the swaying grasses, hear the whirl of insects, "this path, this step, this moment."
This summertime practice of presence reminds me of a favorite Mary Oliver poem:
The Summer Day
Who made the world?
Who made the swan, and the black bear?
Who made the grasshopper?
This grasshopper, I mean-
the one who has flung herself out of the grass,
the one who is eating sugar out of my hand,
who is moving her jaws back and forth instead of up and down-
who is gazing around with her enormous and complicated eyes.
Now she lifts her pale forearms and thoroughly washes her face.
Now she snaps her wings open, and floats away.
I don't know exactly what a prayer is.
I do know how to pay attention, how to fall down
into the grass, how to kneel down in the grass,
how to be idle and blessed, how to stroll through the fields,
which is what I have been doing all day.
Tell me, what else should I have done?
Doesn't everything die at last, and too soon?
Tell me, what is it you plan to do
with your one wild and precious life?
May you find time this summer to pay attention, to be "idle and blessed."
Where is Rev Lucy in July?
My regular office hours are Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday afternoons. Please call or e-mail if you want to visit so I can be sure to be there when you come. I am leading a UU silent retreat in Santa Barbara the week of July 17-22. You can join me! Check out the information about UU Spiritrest: http://www.spiritrestretreat.com/.

A Visit by Our Ministerial Intern in July
|
|
D. Scott Cooper will serve with UUSS for nine months as a full time intern doing a variety of ministerial roles, starting in September. A longtime lay leader at First Unitarian Church of Dallas, he just graduated with an M.Div. from Brite Divinity School. His spouse and stepchildren will remain home but are likely to visit. Scott and Conrad will visit the first weekend in July to look for an apartment for Scott, and they will come to the service to meet us all on July 10.

"Da Capo to Camp Norge"
By Keith Atwater, Music Director
The Italian musical term da capo (literally "to the head") means to go back to the beginning and play it again, and I can't wait to go back to Camp Norge! Spending such quality time outdoors in the green wooded Sierras, singing around the campfire, watching the kids playing in the pool and launching water/air rockets with such joy, enjoying gourmet pancakes and eggs together, getting to know our UUSS family - folks of all ages with so much to share - this is a wonderful opportunity that many of us in increasing numbers will make an annual event. And I heard some enthusiastic singing by the fire, along with some serious theology/spirituality, too. We sang "Down by the Bay," and the kids asked an interesting question: "Did you ever see a UU in a Tu Tu?!" Maybe next June!
Come experience all that UUSS has to offer here "at home" and
in the mountains
appassionato
- with passion!

BUILD for Unity with UUSS and Habitat Sacramento
|
|
By Rev. Roger Jones
If you were at camp June 12 or otherwise away, you missed my introduction of our guest, the publisher of the S
acramento News and Review. You also missed my explanation of a project he is leading as a board member of Greater Sacramento Habitat for Humanity.
Build for Unity is an effort of a diversity of local religious institutions to promote cooperation across faiths, and solidarity with Muslim congregations. The motivation for this outreach was the desire to respond to anti-Muslim suspicions now plaguing our country. In particular, interfaith leaders were troubled by the recent escalation of anti-Muslim rhetoric in political campaigns. After the atrocity in Orlando, I can imagine this hostility will get worse.
The goal of this project is to demonstrate that Muslim families are not only our neighbors but also contributing and caring members of the community. Another goal is to build homes in this area for two families between August and December of this year. (Habitat has identified two families of Ukrainian immigrants for these homes.)
To promote fellowship and connections, BUILD for Unity events will be hosted by various congregations in this region, with food, of course, and activities for children. Leaders have designed and written an eight-page publication to raise awareness of this project and invite people to help.
Soon 200,000 copies of the publication will be distributed in the Sacramento Bee and in the News and Review. Additional copies will be delivered to congregations all over. The vision is to launch Build for Unity projects in over 100 cities around the country, but Sacramento is where it starts.
To have our name listed as a sponsor, the donation from UUSS would be $1,000 or more. The money goes toward publicity and the materials needed to start building the houses. Our Board of Trustees voted to add our name and to allow me to ask you to contribute. By June 15 we had received nearly $400!
If you can help us get over the $1,000 goal and get the UUSS name listed proudly as an interfaith partner in this widespread publication, thank you!
Make checks out to UUSS and note "Habitat" in the memo line. You may bring or mail it to the UUSS Bookkeeper or hand it to Lucy or me. If you're eager to put your hands to work in building a house or two, stay tuned! Click to see the Build for Unity video.

By Elizabeth Kolbert

Social Justice Theme for 2016-17: Confronting Economic Inequality
|
|
Economic Inequality is the current Congregational Study/Action Issue (CSAI) selected by delegates from Unitarian Universalist congregations for four years of study, reflection and action. This is an invitation for congregations to take a topic of concern and engage it, reflect on it, respond to it, comment on it, and take action - each in our own way. You can read more about this topic and the CSAI process by clicking here.
In the new program year we will engage with this theme in sermons, study groups, book groups, religious education activities for adults, children and youth - wherever our vision takes us. We will build on all the great work now being done at UUSS and in the Sacramento region. The theme of economic inequality touches on many issues that fill our open hearts and use our helping hands: poverty, homelessness, immigration, wage fairness, class disparities - and many more. One of our goals is to partner with one or more local organizations to put into practice our mission to "be a force for healing in the world."
Our first step will be to form a task force of folks who will strategize, plan and coordinate the theme activities for the coming year. Do you feel the call to help UUSS be engaged in important issues in our world? Do you have ideas, energy, planning skills to offer? Contact Rev. Lucy if you have interest in serving in this exciting role.

Doing so will pay commissions of 4.5 to 8 percent to UUSS for that particular book, as well as for any other books that you may order during that same Web session. You can buy any and all books you want and still generate commission payments for UUSS, as long as you start from a UUSS book link!
SMILE Purchasing
- Amazon contributes a half-percent rebate on all your Amazon purchases to your personally designated non-profit organization. Go to https://smile.amazon.com/ to do any Amazon shopping. The first time you use SMILE, you need to select UUSS as your non-profit recipient. Do this by simply logging into your regular Amazon account via https://smile.amazon.com/.

Feeding the Hungry in Our Community
|
|
Did you know? As many as 240,000 people in Sacramento County, many of them children, are "food insecure," not only the homeless, but working people who may not earn enough to make ends meet. The Food Bank and Family Services is dedicated to helping these people, and our church has a long history of giving to this important charity. Arnie Godmintz worked on the "Together We Share" project for many years.
Won't you support "Together We Share" by donating canned food, cereal, fresh fruit and vegetables? We can also take clothing and household items.
Please put your donations in the red shopping baske
t
at the main entrance on any Sunday and volunteers will deliver your donations to the Food Bank or one of the other pantries located in the Sacramento area. We hope you'll find this a convenient way to help others on a weekly or monthly basis.
For more information, see our page on the UUSS website by clicking here.

The Kids' Freedom Club Has Raised over $10,000
|
|
By Petra Stanton
As you might know, our most recent fundraiser was the bike-a-thon. Because of it and our past fundraisers, we just reached 10,000 dollars. One-hundred slaves are now free. This is a flabbergasting, stupendous, amazing, wonderful, encouraging moment that we couldn't have done without you. Thank you so much for your support and donations. It's hard to imagine that we have received this far.

Theater One Adopts Mission Statement
|
|
By Susan Madden
After 55 years of operation and in order to clearly state its goals and objectives, Theater One adopted the following Mission Statement at its
May meeting:
Theater One Mission Statement
We believe that the purpose and power of theater lies in its ability to stir our emotions, to invite us to action, and to explore our common humanity - to let us see the world while standing in someone
else's shoes.
Theater One's goal is to produce quality productions that do this, to embrace and welcome the talents of Sacramento, and to entertain across a broad spectrum, culturally and generationally. Our auditions and productions are open to all who wish to participate. Our play selections draw both from plays that have survived the passage of time and from the contemporary theater. We support new works through readings and small productions, offering a platform for
distinctive individual voices.
We seek finally to represent the values of
justice, compassion, integrity, and acceptance
that are core to the Unitarian Universalist Society that underwrites our work and gives us a
theatrical home.
To these ends we pledge our time, talents, and support.
At its June meeting, Theater One unanimously elected David Paul as its chair for the 2016-17 fiscal year. Susan Madden was reappointed co-chair for that period. They both are looking forward to the coming year.

Summer RE
 Stepping into a more casual RE program, Summer RE ArtWorks (continues through August) gives our children and youth the chance to explore various activities and artistic experiences. We started the summer out by creating God's Eyes, practicing yoga, and exploring theater. Summer SHYG kicked off by connecting via watercolor. The Senior High Youth Group meets again on July 10 and August 14. Many thanks to Jessica Katz, Cherie O'Boyle, Paige Labrie, and Sarah Barbulesco-Lamb for their time and talents. Your presence enriches our program.

Spirit Play for young children in Transitional Kinder through 2nd grade (Room 10), True Reflections for children in grades 3rd - 5th (Room 7/8), and our Junior High Youth Group (JHYG) for 6th, 7th, and 8th graders (Room 6). Youth in 9th, 10th, 11th, and 12th grades attend the Senior High Youth Group (SHYG) in Room 12, the last room of the education wing closest to the UUrth Song CommUUnity Garden.
