Rev. Harold Babcock
"We Wait"


In Transylvania one often hears the expression, "We wait."  I used to think that this was just an endearing broken-English-ism, but it turns out that it's a common Romanian-ism, meaning something like, "We look forward to being together again. Things are better when you're with us. It will be nice when we're all together."  It's a roundabout way of saying, "Life is brief, to enjoy it with our friends is the most important thing we can do."  Whenever I plan to visit my friends in Transylvania, they say, "We waiting" or "We wait." 

My sermon will be a reflection on my recent visit with Unitarian friends in Transylvania, where as always I was greeted with open arms and hearts. My text will be, ". . . do not throw your pearls before swine."  Hope that whets your curiosity!  I look forward to seeing you in church.

- Harold Babcock

February 28, 10:30 a.m.
Association Sunday
Kay Montgomery, Unitarian Universalist Association Executive Vice President
"A Mysterious Exchange of Gifts"


The theme is loosely inspired by an essay by Pablo Neruda, in which he writes, " . . . to feel the affection that comes from those who we do not know, from those unknown to us, who are watching over our sleep and solitude, over our dangers and our weaknesses-that widens out the boundaries of our being and unites all living things."

Biography: Kathleen (Kay) Montgomery serves as the Executive Vice President of the Unitarian Universalist Association. In this capacity she is responsible for the day-to-day management of this religious denomination of 1050 congregations. The Association has a staff of approximately 200 and an annual budget of approximately $30,000,000.
Montgomery was appointed to this position in 1985. She manages and coordinates the programs of the Association and has, at one time or another, directly supervised each staff group. Her professional background is in fundraising, organizational development, and church management. She describes herself as a "religious feminist, deeply committed to issues of inclusiveness and justice."  She speaks and preaches in congregations and other organizations throughout the United States, has edited two books, contributed to a number of others, and is the recipient of an honorary doctorate from Meadville/Lombard Theological School.

Kay grew up as an Irish Roman Catholic in Detroit, lived in Atlanta for twenty years during which time she discovered Unitarian Universalism, and has been in the Boston area since 1983. Her family-two sons, two daughters-in-law, five grandchildren-is multi-racial. She has been Mid-South District President, Inter-district President, administrator of the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Atlanta. She has served on the Ministerial Fellowship Committee, a committee that made recommendations for changes in district structures, and pretty much every other imaginable committee in a congregation, district, or the UUA. She is currently a member of First Church in Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts.

Kay is a good friend of Harold Babcock's and a member of  the Stone House Study Group, which Harold attends.

Steeple Lighting: The steeple lighting for this week has been donated by Ray and Darlene Wilson in gratitude for the life of Ray's mother, Carol Doty Wilson.

Flowers: The flowers for today's service are donated by the Fairweather family in loving memory of Dorothy's aunt, Othelia Bansley.

Ushers: KC and Steve Swallow.

Coffee Hour Hosts: Amy Wallace, Tom and Susan Moses, KC and Steve Swallow, and Walter Mott.

Collection for Cause: As has been our practice in the past, this week our entire loose plate collection will be given to the UUA's "Now is the Time" fundraising campaign.

Red Molly

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

FINCH coffeehouse is pleased to present Red Molly in concert Friday, February 19, at 8:00 o'clock p.m., in the Parish Hall.

Doors open at 7:00 o'clock and coffee, desserts, soups and light fare are available. Tickets are $15.00 and are available at Dyno Records Middle Street, Newburyport or at the door. We have sold lots of tickets already so come early!

Red Molly's website mentions that Jake Armerding is joining them on fiddle. Bonus!!

Red Molly consistently brings concert-goers to their feet with stunning three-part harmonies, crisp musicianship and a warm, engaging stage presence. They have earned a devoted and ever-widening fan base, and have begun to tour nationally. Laurie MacAllister, Abbie Gardner and Carolann Solebello have a lot of fun on stage, and it's contagious.

The Boston Globe says: "Everything Red Molly sings is delivered with tick-tight arrangements, crystalline vocals, and caramel harmonies. But what is most striking is the ardor they bring to everything they do, whether snuggling into the sweet parochialism of an old spiritual, or the gritty pathos of a Gillian Welch tune. They come on less like stars strutting for their minions than pals sharing their favorite songs. In the friendly world of the coffeehouse, that remains a star-making quality."

 

Calling All Singers

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Candlelight Chorale Spring Concert:
Music of Randall Thompson
The Peaceable Kingdom and Frostiana


The Program
In 1936, Randall Thompson was commissioned to write "The Peaceable Kingdom," for performance by the Harvard Glee Club and Radcliffe Choral Society. Inspired by the painting of the same name by naturalist Edward Hicks-sometimes called the "preaching Quaker of Pennsylvania"-Thompson's work is a set of eight choruses from the book of Isaiah, the most famous of which is the popular and uplifting double chorus, "Ye shall have a song."

Many years later, in 1959, Thompson was commissioned to write a piece celebrating the bicentennial of the town of Amherst, Massachusetts. Thompson selected seven poems by Robert Frost, creating a kind of choral "suite." Two of these seven movements quickly became favorites in the choral literature: "The road not taken," and "Choose something like a star."

The Schedule
Rehearsals will be on Sunday afternoons from 2:00 to 4:00 in the FRS Lower Meeting Hall. We will begin on April 11 and continue through May 16; the concert will be Sunday evening, May 23rd, at 7:00 p.m. As of this writing, it looks like our dress rehearsal can be on Sunday, May 16, from 2:00 to 4:00, and we will not need to schedule a Saturday morning in addition. (If attendance is poor or if there is a problem with the accompanist's schedule, we may need to add the Saturday morning, so please keep this in mind.)  Also, since some movements of Frostiana are scored for women alone or men alone, one of our rehearsals will be for women only, and another for men only. Details to follow!

The Invitation

Please write and let me know if you can sing with us. Invite your friends!  Come and celebrate great American music and poetry!

CONTRASTING LIVELIHOODS IN THE EARLY NEWBURYS
Saturday, April 10
presented by the FRS Historical and Adult Education Committees

As a precursor to the FRS event, BY LAND OR BY SEA: CONTRASTING LIVELIHOODS IN THE EARLY NEWBURYS, on Saturday, April 10th, The Historical Committee presents another installment of seventeenth century vocabulary.

OUR EARLY HISTORY: VOCABULARY WORDS
"Covenant"        "Simony"        "Indulgences"


Each Sunday, we end our Affirmation of Faith with the words: "Thus do we covenant with each other and with God."  It is likely that the Puritans who settled Newbury spoke similar words at their first religious gathering, and the church congregation has continued to do so for 365 years.

Such a congregational covenant is the antithesis of a hierarchical church order.   One of the first covenants, from Salem, MA, in 1629, is as follows: "We Covenant with the Lord and one with an other; and doe bynd our selves in the presence of God, to walke together in all his waies, according as he is pleased to reveal himself unto us in his Blessed word of truth." (Unitarian Universalist Historical Society)

Importantly, this God reveals himself directly to individuals, not through a priest or a bishop or a pope or a king. As Ben Labaree notes in his rich book on this period, America's Nation-Time: 1607 - 1789,  " . . . In New England, where Puritans believed that each man should be able to interpret the Scriptures for himself, the ability to read had a religious significance."  For if you could read the Bible, you could read God's word for yourself; thus you could covenant with God, and with your co-congregants, rather than accepting the interpretation (in Latin, no less) -- and the implicit power and control -- of a velvet-robed, bejeweled Anglican or Catholic priest.

However, the desire for direct relationships with God and with each other, free of church hierarchy, was not the sole reason Puritans yearned for reform. In England as in the rest of Christian Europe, church positions were often bought or sold ("simony,") and jobs distributed to friends and relatives. Many priests were guilty of drunkenness, fornication, and not showing up for work. And worshipers who lived disorderly lives had only to buy "indulgences," declarations that their sins were pardoned.

By the time of Martin Luther, the Church in Rome had developed an informal sales force of traveling preachers who marketed indulgences. A portion of each payment went into the salesman's pocket -- a quiet commission -- and the rest made its way to various people or projects, including  the Basilica of St. Peter in Rome (completed in 1626), with room for 60,000 worshipers.

 

Introducing "The Tiny Gallery"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Tiny Gallery at the FRSUU is available to you!

As many of you have noticed, there is a small gallery space at the bottom of the 'swoosh' stairs leading from the vestibule into the lower meeting house which has been well used over the past few months.  Don't miss the current exhibit of paintings by Anne White and art by Patti Rae Miliotis coming in March! The Tiny Gallery is available to artists for monthly exhibits at no cost for church members. Guidelines and a request form are now available at the church office.

The First Religious Society encourages all kinds of artistic expression. In the past we have had paintings, photography, mixed media sculpture and drawings. There is room for more. We currently have a waiting list of several months, so get on the list!

 

You Got Books?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Don't throw them out. Don't give them away yet. Save them for the FRS summer book sale. You'll be able bring them into the church office in late June and early July for the book sale, which will be at the end of July. We need many, many books, records, CDs, DVDs, and tapes. More information later.

Congratulations to Tom Stites, who with his Banyan Project prevailed in the online balloting for the Game Changer Award to be presented at the WeMedia Conference next month in Miami. Tom thanks all the FRS people who cast votes for him and reached out to others to round up still more votes. Not only did the votes matter, he says, but the encouraging emails that FRS people sent him kept his spirits up during almost two weeks of campaigning when he got very little sleep.  Announcement on the web.

From the Winter 2009 - 2010 UU Partner Church News
REV. HAROLD BABCOCK NAMED
UUA AMBASSADOR TO TRANSYLVANIA UNITARIAN CHURCH


An increasingly essential element of the UUA's commitment to maintain and develop "Right Relationship" with Unitarian-Universalist judicatories around the world is the "International Ambassador Program." These Ambassadors help the UUA to be a good partner by promoting effective communication, spiritual communion, cooperative involvement in projects, and the development of interdependency in global relationships.

The UUA was deeply appreciative to the Reverend John Gibbons, who served as the UUA's Ambassador to the Transylvania Unitarian Church for nearly two years and completed his service in October, 2009.

And, the UUA is immensely grateful that the Reverend Harold Babcock agreed to be named by UUA President Peter Morales as the next Ambassador to the Transylvania Unitarian Church. Rev. Babcock began his service on October 27, 2009.

Reverend Babcock will serve along with Reverend Abhi Janamanchi, Ambassador to the Unitarian Union of Northeast India; and Reverend Fred Muir, Ambassador to the UU Church of the Philippines - who continue their profound service to UUism.

Rev. Morales wrote to Rev. Babcock on his appointment-"By virtue of your good offices, I trust that the faithful ties that exist between the UUA and the Transylvanian Unitarian Church will be strengthened, and that our institutional relationship will continue to develop." It's hard to imagine that another American UU could be better qualified for that important work than Rev. Babcock.

Isten vezéreljen! Es köszönöm szepen, Harold
