Newest Pandemic Guidelines from NEST, as of April 25
The UU NEST (Next Steps in Transition) working group met on Monday, April 25, 2022. Based on the most recent CDC recommendations, the low COVID case rate in Monroe County, the high rate of vaccination among church members, and the high-quality air filtration system we have in the church, we now believe that it is safe for us to relax the requirement that attendees wear masks at all times. With this change, we encourage everyone to make their own decisions about whether or not to wear a mask based on their personal levels of risk. Our revised guidelines are as follows:
Sunday Worship Guidelines for In-person Attendees:
- The Meeting Room has been restored to full seating capacity.
- We expect all who are able to be vaccinated.
-
Masks are no longer required. However, because of the higher transmission risks associated with singing, we ask that those who choose to sing wear a mask while doing so.
- We encourage all attendees to be mindful that different people have different levels of comfort with physical contact.
- Pre-registration for worship services is not required.
- We will hold coffee hour in Fellowship Hall between the services. Whenever the weather allows, we will open the Fellowship Hall doors and encourage people to gather outside.
Choir members will continue to wear their special singers’ masks when they participate in worship services. These masks are the same as those used by the Jacobs School of Music; their long beaks increase their effectiveness at reducing COVID transmission.
We will continue to live stream services for those who prefer to participate in services virtually.
As always, each individual must decide what is right for them and whether or not to attend activities in person. We reserve the right to revise these guidelines in response to changes in COVID risk levels.
Warmest regards,
The NEST Working Group: Jane McLeod, Abby Gitlitz, Michele Grove, Judy Klein, Ann LeDuc, Dan Lodge-Rigal, Sarah Sanchez, Melinda Swenson and Rev. Bill Breeden.

Arise! A Graduation Celebration and Mother’s Day Exploration
Time for All Ages: Baby Dedication
Reverend Mary Ann Macklin
Reverend Emily Manvel Leite
“Arise, all women who have hearts,” Julia Ward Howe wrote in her 1870’s Mother's Day Proclamation to establish Mother’s Peace Day, an anti-war declaration. Join us for a journey of beauty and memory as we explore the many meanings of Mother’s Day in our lives. We will also be addressing recent news about leaked documents from the U.S. Supreme Court.
This will be a service rich in ritual, as we offer one of our cherished rites of passage during the time for all ages, Our Baby Dedication. We will also recognize and celebrate anyone who is graduating from an institution of higher education in May, and offer a final time of reflection with our Covid Memorial Installation (see details in ministers' column, below.) Special music will be provided by our Children's Choir.

Our Covid Memorial -
From Our Ministers
Dear friends,
As Reverend Emily shared in last week's Friday update and Reverend Mary Ann mentioned on Sunday, this month of May is a time of transition for us and for our Covid 19 Memorial Installation. We are sending deep thanks to the many of you who have co-created the installation and have made possible this way of contemplating all that we have been living through in these pandemic years.
Throughout this month, as we explore our congregational theme of Beauty and Memory, we will be offering time to thoughtfully bear witness to the changes we are experiencing in our relationship with Covid through a transformation of our Installation. This will be a congregation-wide process, with several opportunities for engagement. We hope you will join in wherever these events may be meaningful or helpful to you.
May 3-8: Gathering in final scrolls--we hope to record as many numbers as possible as we remember the many beloved individuals represented by these numbers. Scrolls can be picked up and dropped off outside the portico entrance anytime this week.
Friday, May 6, 4pm: Last drop off time for scrolls to be included in the sanctuary on Sunday morning.
Sunday, May 8: Final worship service with the Covid Memorial. We will offer time for witness and time to reflect together upon how we hope to move into the next phase of living with Covid. Scrolls brought to the services will be included in the evening visitation hours. We will offer a final time for writing numbers in community between services.
Sunday, May 8 and Tuesday, May 10, 7:00-9:00pm: The installation will be open for visitors to bear witness and to reflect on their own experiences of living with Covid. This visitation time will have lighting by Steve Krahnke and Mary Allen Lynch will offer reflective piano music from 7-8pm. There will be a time of silent vigil from 8-9pm. Ministers will be present.
Thursday, May 12 or Friday, May 13: The scrolls will be gathered in and removed from the sanctuary in preparation for burning. Please contact Reverend Emily (leite(at)uubloomington.org) if you'd like to be a part of the ritual gathering in of the scrolls. We will choose a mutually convenient time together.
Sunday, May 22, evening: The scrolls will be burned at the lake near Reverend Breeden's home. Witnesses are welcomed--watch for an announcement of the exact time. We hope that, like a funeral pyre, the burning will allow all of the prayers and wishes we have been holding (for all of the people who have died of Covid and for all of their loved ones) to rise, and also that, like a forest fire, this fire will make room for new things to emerge from the ashes.
Sunday, May 29: We will bring the ashes from the scrolls to our worship services and will offer a time to explore beauty and memory, endings and beginnings.
Please watch the Prologue and Sunday announcements for more updates on these events as we enter this transition phase together. And please do get in touch if you have questions or concerns.
With love and appreciation for your witness through these many months,
Emily, Mary Ann, and Bill
Reverend Emily Manvel Leite
Reverend Mary Ann Macklin

MAM’s Musings
In our worship service this past Sunday, I explored the topic of honorable closure with the moon as our guide. I am grateful for our guest pianist, Sally Todd, for her beautiful spirit and sparkling skills. Throughout my twenty years of ministry here, we have been so blessed with gifted pianists. May our Ray of Sunshine, The Gift, (formerlyknownasRayFellman) bless us and you all for many moons to come. Such gratitude for all.
MEET WITH MAM IN MAY
As mentioned in the worship service, I will be offering meeting times to reminisce and engage personal farewells in my office—for one-one-one meetings or with several of you if you choose. Please contact our church office, admin (at) uubloomington.org or 812-287-9615 to schedule a 15 minute, 30 minute, or 50 minute meeting time to stop by my office and participate in some honorable closure. Times available on Mondays and Thursdays, May 9-26. Please do not wait for a blue moon to do this.
Hey! Lunar Eclipse Alert. I just learned that a total eclipse of the moon lasting 85 minutes will be the highlight of May for skywatchers. In the Midwest, the full moon will rise on the evening of May 15-16 with the eclipse already beginning. Observers on the East Coast will see the entire eclipse in a dark sky. Starting at 10:28 p.m. EDT May 15, the lunar surface will slowly turn dusky gray, and then an orange coloring will become noticeable, especially with a telescope. Totality will last from 11:29 p.m. to 12:54 a.m.
Remember. Read Your Newsletter!
AND It’s May 3rd -- Vote!
Peace and Love,
MAM

An Invitation from Rev. Bill
This past Sunday I attended Mikey’s Concert, produced by Kit Boulding to honor her partner Mikey Brooks, who was killed in a tragic accident three years ago. It was one of the most powerful explorations of love and grief I have ever witnessed, and by coincidence, I was accompanied by a friend from my teenage years who was in town to attend a memorial for her cousin who died of Covid. The wife of the deceased cousin was also in attendance, and she found the concert and the presence of our Covid memorial to be a healing experience. It was her first visit to a Unitarian Universalist Church, and one she will never forget. She and I shared an emotional moment because we both have a number on a strip in our sanctuary that represents the name of someone we loved dearly. I give thanks to Kit Boulding for the concert, and to Reverend Emily Manvel Leite and many of you for the creation of such a stunning visual representation of our love and grief.
This week is the last week of our Covid Memorial presence in the sanctuary. I plan to continue writing numbers, representing the loved ones in our nation lost to this pandemic. I invite you to join me in adding as many as we possibly can during this month of May. Strips are available for pick up and drop off near the Portico Entrance this week.
—peace, Rev. Bill
Reverend Bill Breeden
Minister Emeritus

Emily’s Post
Dear Ones,
Our Covid Memorial Installation is coming down. The timing is short--we will have it up through next Sunday, May 8, then visitation evenings on Sunday (8th) and Tuesday (10th), and then it will be gone in its current form. There is so much to take in and so much to let go. It will be a challenging month for some of us as we process all that has happened and all that we could not witness.
I am personally feeling sad that it will be gone so soon. It is hard to let it go, especially unfinished and especially since it has offered me such peace and spaciousness to be with ALL that I have been feeling through this pandemic: a place to remember both the preciousness and precariousness of life and the overwhelming loss.
AND there is a slowly growing pull towards moving into something new--it is time to begin taking baby steps into what life looks like when living with Covid as an ongoing reality, not a temporary, though extended, crisis. I know that for some, this is a process that began long ago, and for some, it is a process barely begun.
In community, it is hard to get the balance point exactly right and to choose the moment to plunge ahead into change for our memorial. There will be many of us who are sad and many who will be relieved. Many who will be surprised, many who will feel lost, and many who will be joyful. There is a spaciousness that we will have again in the sanctuary that may be a little dizzying, but that will offer a feeling of possibility for some and a moment to process all of this loss all over again for others. Choosing now has its pluses and its minuses, but I trust that we will get through it all together.
I'm with you for the journey, whichever one you are on.
With love,
Emily

Minister of Story and Ritual

From Michele Grove
In July 2021, I met a child I had not seen since prior to the pandemic shutdown. When I last saw them in March 2020, they were in the second half of preschool. When I saw them in July, they were getting ready to start 1st grade. This beautiful young child had not aged in my mind during the pandemic. My imagination had frozen them in time. But that is not the reality. This beautiful young child continued to grow in mind, body, and spirit during the pandemic. I was in awe of this new, yet familiar person!
This has probably happened to you. During the time we were not able to gather ritually in community, we continued to grow and develop into the person we are today. As we start to gather in person more regularly, we are meeting each other-as we are now- for the first time. And each new ‘you’’ is a part of the new ‘us.’. No wonder everything feels strange! My hope for this congregation is that you will find ways to embrace the familiar and the new. The new ‘you’ and the new ‘us’ has the potential to be magical and amazing!

If you would like to help make this an ongoing project in our congregation, please sign up to staff the table during coffee hour this summer.

YOU CAN COUNT ON THIS
DRUUMM’s Annual Public Worship - May 4, 8:30 p.m.
A Message from Reverend Joseph Santos-Lyons: Faith can be both a guiding light and sustaining force throughout the course of one’s life. Yet in a world that is all too cruel and harsh, faith can be twisted, becoming instead a tool that fosters both isolation and a sense of underwhelm. What do we do when this happens for us as Unitarian Universalists? Come, let us gather in the fortifying spirit of love made known in community as we re-member ourselves, for ourselves, in the presence of all that we choose to name as Holy. DRUUMM (druumm.org) is Diverse Revolutionary UU Multicultural Ministries, a collective of people who identify as People of Color.
(We are one of the sponsoring congregations for this event. --Ed.)
