Feb 21, “Beloved Community in Practice,” Rev. Sam Trumbore
The ideals of community make it sound delightful. Yet individuals imperfectly fit themselves into communities and can be in tension with it. How do we resolve the never-ending conflicts between individual interests and the good of the community?

Feb 28, “The Price of Community,”
Rev. Sam Trumbore
Every community makes claims upon its members. It may ask for shared values and commitments. It may ask for shared behavioral norms. All communities ask for loyalty in some form. And all of them depend on mutual financial support.
Music provided by our Albany UU Virtual Choir, Elena Karpoff, Chris Jensen, Randy Rosette, Parody by Bob Franklin
New Sunday Service Element: Community Message!
On a regular basis, we’ll have a member of the congregation bring you a short, inspirational, personal message about some aspect of our congregational life. In February we’ll have two messages about inclusivity. In March the focus will be personal reflections on generosity and stewardship. These messages will be a way to connect more deeply with our community and our members. Let Rev. Sam know what you think about this addition!
Joys and Concerns for Online Services
We have three ways that you can share your joys and concerns.
-
One: Use the online form. If you use this form, you can indicate if you would like to have your joys and concerns shared at the Sunday service, and you can leave contact info if you would like a Pastoral Care Associate to follow up with you.
-
Two: Email your joy or sorrow to joysandsorrows@albanyuu.org before Sunday morning to have them read aloud during the service
- Three: We will be giving you instructions during the Sunday service about how to share your joys and concerns then.

Call for Stewardship Volunteers
We Need YOU!
Lifting Hearts, Broadening Minds, Doing Justice…Together
It’s that time again! We’re about to start our Stewardship Campaign, Lifting Hearts, Broadening Minds, Doing Justice…Together, and we’ll need some volunteers to help make it happen. Each year during Sunday services in the campaign, we feature the testimonials of members and friends who share with us why they are committed to supporting Albany UU with a financial pledge. We need four people to give these three to five minute testimonials. And starting in April, we’ll need volunteers to make follow-up calls to members and friends to encourage them to complete their pledges. You can indicate your interest using this form. Thank you for considering this important contribution to the Stewardship Campaign! Every little bit helps!
It's not too late to Send HUUGS, (Huge UU Greetings) to our Fledgling Young Adults
Each year the Religious Education Council asks the congregation for donations to send packages of goodies and cards with our good wishes to our recently bridged youth (those who have moved on from our high school group). We know that they dearly appreciate these packages!
This year, because of COVID, the REC is purchasing, packing up and mailing packages of goodies. Even young adults living at home this year need a little love from us!
We’re asking congregants to mail cards, letters, and valentines directly to these fledgling young adults. Here is a google doc with their postal addresses. You may know these young adults and tell them that you’re thinking of them; and if you don’t know them, you could send a note and simply sign it with your name and say that you’re from Albany UU.
Our commUUnity rocks!
Warmth for those in need
The Interfaith Shelter for the homeless could still use our blankets, sleeping bags, jackets, and other warming items. Because the church is not a suitable place to gather these at this time, Carol Butt is looking for Albany UU volunteers in different areas around the capital district to be collection points for these items. Please e-mail Carol at catzen1944@gmail.com or call or text (518) 275-7497 if you'd like to help.
