Hello, here is the ENews for this week.  
 
This is our latest attempt at publishing an electronic newsletter. We found the comments on our efforts so far very helpful so please pass on any difficulties (and joys)you experience.

If you wish to print a copy of this please go to http://www.cedarlane.org/enarch10/en041610.htmwhere it has been posted as a web page.

Thanks, Sara and Corinne, news@cedarlane.org.

The 2010 Spring B Brochure is now available
at www.cedarlane.org/SpringBBrochure.pdf

This 4 week, intergenerational program has something for everyone.

So plan to join us May 2 - May 23!

Service This Sunday: 9 & 11 a.m. April 18, 2010 

"When is a Branch a Snake?"
Rev. Roger Fritts

The sermon will explore risk assessment and the power of fear.

Forum: How Will the Merger of Walter Reed and Bethesda Naval Hospital Affect Us? As a result of the Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) process, Walter Reed will be closed, with most of its support for military personnel and dependents transferred to the Bethesda Naval Hospital. Visits to the Bethesda facility are projected to almost double. The transfer raises issues of traffic congestion, transit access, lodging for patients and visitors, and housing for additional medical staff. Phil Alperson, BRAC Coordinator for Montgomery County, will explore the impact of this change on Cedar Lane.

Music Notes: Our Children's Choir and Youth Choir join together for a very special surprise during this Worship Service.  You'll have to come and see it for yourselves because it's a secret (shh!).  

Welcome, Visitors to Cedar Lane. We invite you to stop by our Visitors Center in the Lounge before or after the service to say hello, find out more about Cedar Lane and Unitarian Universalism, sign up for our mailing list, and/or pick up pamphlets about our faith.

GREAT THINGS TO DO: 
 
This Saturday night April 17, 8:00 P.M. I will be at church to hear The Snark Ensembleplay and to watch old movies. I hope to see you there. 
 
A week later The Reverend Peter Morales, President of the Unitarian Universalist Association, invites us to join him Saturday, April 24, 2010 from 4:00 to 6:30 p.m. at the Unitarian Universalist Church of Annapolis 333 Dubois Road, Annapolis. Annapolis is beautiful this time of year. It will be a great way to spend a Saturday. (There will be a pitch for money. We will be asked to support Unitarian Universalist Legislative Ministry of Maryland.) Please RSVP by April 19 to
info@uulmmd.org or Call 410-266-8044, ext. 111.
 
Two weeks from now, Saturday, May 1 at 5:00P.M. I will be at the first Cedar Lane Derby Day party. This will be THE adult social event of the season at Cedar Lane Unitarian Universalist Church! The Finance Committee will serve Mint Juleps and appetizers before the race, which we will watch on the big screen.
 
Horse racing is one of my favorite sports because it requires me to pay attention for only about two minutes. "Post time," the moment the race starts, is about 6:15 P.M. By 6:20, the race is over and we can focus on food and socializing.
 
The food will include spiraled ham, angel biscuits, mushroom stroganoff, and other dishes prepared by members of the Finance Committee. Dessert will be Derby Pie (chocolate pecan), racing cookies and fruit. Sometime after 8:00 P.M., we will all work together to set up for church and spring B Sunday morning. 
 
If you wish to attend, contact Sara Deshler
sdeshler@cedarlane.org to arrange the ticket purchase. The cost is only $35.
 
So, in addition to Sunday morning, there are three opportunities on the weekends to be with other Unitarian Universalists: Music and movies, politics and Annapolis, horse racing and food-never a dull moment.

We Care 
The We Care program is a network led by volunteers who reach out to address short-term needs - food deliveries, rides to doctor's appointments, a listening ear in the event of a loss. The Cedar Lane congregation is organized geographically by "neighborhoods"; each neighborhood has at least one chairperson to coordinate support. Look at your nametag or the map in the church office to find your neighborhood.
 
Should you know of a member of our community in personal need, you are encouraged to reach out to them. If you learn that this person wishes to receive a response from the church, please contact Roger Fritts at
rfritts@cedarlane.org. All ministers offer pastoral care to our members so you are also encouraged to contact any member of the ministerial team.  

Music Notes from the Director of Music
Henry Sgrecci

April 18 - Our Children's Choir and Youth Choir join together for a very special surprise during this Worship Service.  You'll have to come and see it for yourselves because it's a secret (shh!).  
 
April 25-
We will celebrate Earth Day with songs that remind us of the beauty and sacredness of our planet. The Adult Choir leads the morning's music with a setting by contemporary composer Frank Tichelli titled EarthSong. The Congregation will sing "For the Earth Forever Turning."  
 
Don't forget to check out all the extracurricular music happenings at CLUUC this spring! "Round Singing"
is part of Adult Programs.  Spring B will include both a class called "Everything You Need to Know About Handbells (but were afraid to ask...)" and a Coffee House project led by Steve Jones. Check them all out on the website. 

From the Church Administrator 
B & B Anyone?

From time to time we receive requests for Cedar Laners to open their homes to UUs from other areas. They may be draw here with a need at NIH or the Bethesda Naval Hospital, to visit family nearby, or to attend a protest downtown. I am looking to establish a roster of folks willing to be asked ( you may, of course, decline if it is at an inconvenient time).  If you are interested please let me know.  Thanks, Sara Deshler sdeshler@cedarlane.org 

Education for All Ages

Last Regular Classes April 25
We'll conclude this year's regular class program on April 25, and dive into Spring B. We cannot adequately express our gratitude to our very dedicated, talented, and loving teachers who have given so much of themselves to be with our children and youth! It's been a great year!

Teacher Recruitment in Full Swing
Our ministry to children and youth takes place in many ways. Central to that is our regular September-April class program for Babies-High Schoolers. Teaching most always is a rewarding and satisfying experience (ask our teachers about this!). It is also critical to our commitment to our faith community. Please think about it! If you want to explore this a bit, to see if this would be a good fit for you, learn what is needed, what subject areas and age groups are available, please contact Susan Archer, our Minister of Religious Education. Without teachers, we cannot have classes! And, teaching may give you a surprising new window for your own life.

Spring B Almost Here!
This fun and relaxed intergenerational program is offered for all ages on Sunday mornings, May 2-May 23, with childcare available for ages 5 and younger. Registration begins THIS SUNDAY. The brochure describing class offerings is available on-line at www.cedarlane.org. Hard copy brochures will also be available at the registration table on Sundays, April 18 & 25, under the nametags, and the RE Admin table downstairs. Contact the RE office if you need a copy snail mailed.

All-Church Retreat Opening Registration
Our retreat, June 11-13,. will again this year, be at Camp Tockwogh, Retreating is a time to breathe and play or do nothing at all. The weekend is family centered in a beautiful setting by the bay. It will be extraordinarily relaxing, and a way to make new friends and deepen old relationships, find alone time and space or participate in lots of activities-waterfront (kayaks and other), pool, archery, hikes, campfire, . . . and more. For all ages, babies through 110!
Registration materials will be mailed to RE families this coming week, will be available on the website, and will be available in hard copy on the counter under the nametags!

The transfer raises issues of traffic congestion, transit access, lodging for patients and visitors, and housing for additional medical staff.

Upcoming Sundays   

April 25, 2010
"Greening Unitarian Universalism"

The Rev. Roger Fritts
An Earth Day sermon celebrating the ways we are learning to live in harmony with the enviornment.

May 2, 2010
Senior's Service
 
Our 12th graders will lead the service and share their unique perspectives on life and on their experiences at Cedar Lane. Organized by our Coordinator for Youth Ministry, Rev. Archene Turner.

Around the Church

Concerts at Cedar Lane presents the Snark Ensemble, Saturday evening, April 17, 8 p.m. View the silent films of Buster Keaton, Charlie Chase, and Harry Langdon while listening to the live, New Orleans style original music of The Snark Ensemble.   Great entertainment for the whole family.  We'll have popcorn, just like at the theatres.  Come early to get a good seat! See more details at cedarlane.org/Concerts.htm. 

So, What Is a Child Dedication?
Most religious traditions have a way to welcome young ones into the faith community. In Christian circles the rite of Baptism cleanses the child of sin and purifies. We do not have that meaning in our Unitarian Universalist ceremonies welcoming our babies and young children. We affirm that a baby arrives without sin or shame, as a whole and good person. Our service of "child dedication" allows us (parents, family, friends, church) to promise to the child and to each other that we will love and nurture her or him, that we will teach the best of what we know. We are not dedicating the child to any belief or cause, but are instead dedicating ourselves to this responsibility of raising a child.
On Sunday, June 6, we will take time to have a dedication ceremony within the regular worship service (10 a.m. summer schedule). If you wish to be part of this, please contact Rev. Susan Archer(301-493-8300 x 206 or
sarcher@cedarlane.org).

Upcoming Potluck Dinner
The Ethical Eating Study Group invites you to another Plant-Based Food Potluck Dinner on Sunday, May 2. The dinner starts at 6 p.m. At 7 Don Robertson, Director of Earthsave Baltimore, will challenge us to make smarter food choices. Don was scheduled to speak at our last potluck in February, but we cancelled him due to the weather. We went ahead with the dinner though and had a wonderful time with terrific food. Join us this time. RSVP to Joanne Evans, joanneevans@verizon.net, 301-881-2616. 

Music Committee 
The Music Committee needs some new committee members for next year to work with Henry Sgrecci to nurture and expand the CLUUC Music Program.  This is an opportunity to collaborate with a fun group, exercise your creative and forward thinking, and make real contributions to our church community.  We are looking for some new committee members who are not currently involved in any of our church choirs, as well as some new members from the adult choir.  We meet every 2 months or as needed.
 
Our mission: The Music Committee, in conjunction with the Director of Music, actively supports and facilitates the operation of all aspects of the CLUUC music program, as well as overseeing long-term goals and direction.  The Committee promotes communication among the congregation, choirs, ministers, and the Board of Trustees (BOT) regarding the role of music in our worship and congregational life.
 
If you are interested, or have any questions please contact Ariel Mora, committee chair - ariel_mora1@hotmail.com.

Now that winter finally seems to be on its way out, please consider bringing in clothes for all seasons (any condition) that you and your family no longer need? This is a project of the Session II 7th graders-we are working with Promicrofinance, a group that ships clothes to the Congo, where women (many of whom are trying to get out of violent or abusive situations) use them to begin their own businesses. The box is near the side door in the hallway leading to the chapel. We'll be collecting until RE classes end on April 25. Thank you!

Paper to Pearls Jewelry
The 7G Session 2 RE class will be selling Paper to Pearls jewelry in the lounge. Half the proceeds go to the women beaders in Uganda as a microfinance project, and the other half goes to the 2 social action projects selected by the class: Relief for women in the DR Congo (AMCAV) and Heifer International.

GREEN TIPS
Environmental Task Force
 

COMPOSTING FOODS WITH FATS/OILS CAUSES PROBLEMS
Since rats and other "smalls" such as squirrels love the smell of fats or oils, it is unwise to put foods prepared with fats or oils into a compost pile or bin such as we have at CLUUC. These bins have holes designed to circulate air but which also release attractive odors.  These rodents can and do chew through plastic bins to get at what they love to eat. Oils or fats smell wonderful to them; rotting, other composting things usually do not smell so good. Most compost bins (like ours) are not regularly monitored to chase such undesirables away.

Beyond Cedar Lane

From Beacon House
We have a chance to win $5,000 if we get more online votes for our "Young Women on the Rise" programs (i.e., young women's empowerment programs and the cheerleading team) than 9 other competitors.  At a minimum, please copy and paste the link below and vote for "Beacon House".  But please also be aggressive in getting anyone you can think of to vote for Beacon House as well.  Voting is open until April 22.  You can only vote once.
