IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENTS!
|
|
Endowment Trust Announces Annual Granting Capacity
Each calendar year the endowment trustees use a prescribed formula based on income from its investments to calculate the amount of money available for special project grants. The 2021 granting capacity is $20,000.
If you have an idea for a special project consistent with the congregation’s mission please apply. Applications may be submitted through the Albany UU website:
The total value of the endowments as of February 28 is $1,064,953 which includes a no interest building loan to the congregation of $575,000.
Last year the Board of Trustees established a second endowment, the income from which will be used to support the ongoing operations of the congregation. The Operations Trust may be large enough to generate some investment income to contribute to the 2022-23 budget.
Members and friends donate to the endowments to commemorate life’s milestones and memories, joys and sorrows. You may also support either (or both) of the endowments with planned giving by a bequest in your Will.
Food Pantry Donation Drive and Easter Hunt in Washington Park April 3
Help us put some food on pantry shelves and provide some fun for the children. This year the RE program is asking congregants to donate packaged, non-perishable food to give to local food pantries. Here are the guidelines and suggestions for donations. We’re planning a “Pantry Food Hunt” in Washington Park on the morning of Saturday, April 3 where instead of hunting for Easter Eggs, kids will hunt for the hidden food panty items. In return for their efforts, they’ll receive some fun springtime surprises to take home. Please bring your food panty donations to the bin outside Leah Purcell’s house, 218 Ormond St, Albany 12208. No worries about parking; you can use her semi-circle driveway. Her house is easy to get to from Albany or via Rte. 85.
Volunteers Needed at Sheridan Prep
Sheridan Prep holds a monthly farmers’ market to benefit students and their families. They need volunteers for two tasks:
- To assist with driving cartons of food from the Regional Food Bank at 965 Albany Shaker Road in Latham to the school and
- To help organize the food in the school gym.
The farmers’ market is held on the last Wednesday of each month. The March date is the 31st. Volunteer drivers will meet at the Regional Food Bank at 10 am to move cartons from the dock to their cars. They will then drive to the school where two school staff will help unload and deliver the food to the gym. It is helpful if the drivers have vehicles large enough to carry multiple cartons. Volunteers will be finished around 11:30 am.
Volunteers in the gym will meet at Sheridan Prep at 12:30 pm. No more than five or six people--Sheridan staff and UU volunteers--wearing masks will help in the gym. Volunteers will open cartons and arrange food on available tables. Some staff and families will have pre-ordered food and volunteers will sort the ordered food into boxes. Volunteers will be finished around 2 pm, before families arrive to collect their food.
This is an opportunity to help Sheridan kids without making a long-term commitment. If you would like to volunteer or have questions, please contact Martha Musser by phone (518-313-9674) or email (mussermartha@gmail.com).
Donations of warmth for the shelter
Jan McCracken, Nancy Willie-Schiff and Carol Butt have agreed to receive donations at their homes of blankets, sleeping bags, warm coats, hats and gloves, etc. to go to the shelter. Jan is in the Pine Hills area of Albany, Nancy is in the Loudonville area and Carol is in the Delmar, Slingerlands, Glenmont area. If you bring them to us, we will get them to the shelter. If you are in another area of the Capital District, we are still looking for volunteers to receive donations of items for transfer to the shelter. Please contact Carol Butt at (518) 275-7497 or catzen1944@gmail.com. Thanks to all who continue to contribute items much needed to warm our homeless population which has expanded with the hardships of the pandemic.

FROM OUR INCLUSIVITY TEAM
8th Principle
|
|
Let's Take Some Time to Consider the 8th Principle of Unitarian Universalism
“We, the member congregations of the Unitarian Universalist Association, covenant to affirm and promote: journeying toward spiritual wholeness by working to build a diverse multicultural Beloved Community by our actions that accountably dismantle racism and other oppressions in ourselves and our institutions.”
This proposed 8th Principle of Unitarian Universalism has been adopted by more than 40 congregations and another 40 in process. It was created in 2013 by Paula Cole Jones and Bruce Pollack-Johnson, out of the belief that after many decades of fighting racism in our congregations and in society, we needed something to renew our commitment to this work, to hold us accountable, and to fulfill the potential of our existing Seven Principles.
Having recently experienced the United States moving quickly and dangerously in the wrong direction, police violence against BIPOC, Supreme Court decisions on voting rights, and the resurgence of violent white supremacist groups, among other events, the Inclusivity Team felt that now was well past time to introduce the 8th Principle to Albany UU for consideration and adoption. The Inclusivity Team formed an 8th Principle subteam, members include Dick Dana, Linda Hunt, Lee Newberg, and Annika Pfluger.
The subteam began by contacting a number of congregations, from Virginia to Hawaii, who have already adopted the 8th Principle. We asked them about their experience of the process. All saw it as a major, positive step in their congregation’s anti-racism journey, serving as a guide while they continue to shape the life of their congregation both internally, in welcoming and including people of diverse backgrounds; and externally, in their relationships outside the congregation’s walls.
One stated flatly, "If you don’t deal with the 8th Principle, everything you tell me about the other 7 doesn’t ring true." She mentioned it gives her congregation a framework to talk about the issue, and in a sense, it has given her a whole new congregation. One BIPOC member stated that adopting the 8th Principle was a tangible expression of her congregation’s love for her.
There is more to come. We will all have a chance to discuss the implications of adoption. Let's all take some time to consider the 8th Principle of Unitarian Universalism. Feel free to text, email, or call any one of us on the subteam with any questions, comments, or concerns.
