Sister Congregations
Once, congregations in our traditionwere closer. Congregations in NewEngland knew their neighboring con-gregations well, met together oftenand relied upon one another forcounsel and resources. When transportation was shoeleather and the horse, new congregations were formedwhen the distance to them exceeded a healthy walk.Once formed, these congregations became sister congre-gations, connected by tradition and necessity.
Today, distance is less of an obstacle but congregationshave not maintained the closeness that was alive in ourhistory. Recently, this trend began its reverse with the for-mation of local clusters: nearby U.U. congregations gath-ering to share support, collaborating on training, andlearning what each is undertaking in its community. Clus-ters, still in their infancy, hold much promise for our UUfuture.
Our congregation has been active in forming our new Tide-water Cluster but it has also been active in many levels ofUnitarian Universalist connection and beyond. Two yearsago we shared ideas with the First Church of Milton, MA,on their visit here, to learn about our practice. Last Year’sOWL class was a composite of students from our congre-gation and the Glen Allen Congregation (and Friends fromthe local Quaker Meeting). Our communications amongReligious Education Directors, Leaders and Ministers are

This December we will join with our nearest like-sized neighbor…the Eno RiverUnitarian Universalist Fellowship of Durham, NC to share learnings, longings andleadership ideas. They’ll visit here and then we’ll visit there, with the idea that wewill discover common challenges and discuss our solutions and our dreams. Wehope you will find time to welcome Eno River’s delegation on Dec. 8th & 9th. Itwill connect us a bit more to how things can be among sister congregations. Sometraditions are worth renewing.

We meet for meditation on Sundays at 9 am and formeditation and teachings on Thursdays at 7 pm. You arewelcome to any meeting. There is no commitment required.
At each gathering, we will include both sitting and walkingmeditations.

Wefinish in time for the 10 am service.
On Thursdays, we gather for more than meditation and usually stay until 8:30 orso. We sit for 20 minutes, walk for 10 and then sit for 20 minutes again. Aftermeditation, we may chant for a short time (instruction provided) or move directlytea and conversation. Often we spend about 30 minutes reading and discussingreadings. Please feel free to join us or leave after the meditation.
If you are new to meditation and would like an introduction, please join us15-minutes early at 8:45 am on Sundays or 6:45 pm on Thursdays.
You don't have to be Buddhist to join us.

Visions and Planning
Where are we going, and how are we going to get there, and what will we need to getthere? Do any of these questions sound familiar? I would venture many of us gothrough this process informally in many ways in our daily lives, whether it is a trip tothe grocery store, planning a vacation, or a project in our work or school environment.Asking and answering these questions results in planning.
A major responsibility of your Church Board is planning and we have set goals this year to begin the develop-ment of a three-to-five year strategic plan for our church. We are at an exciting point with a capital campaignproject and it is a good time to step back and ask some questions. Where will we be three to five years fromnow in space and building usage and what impact will this have on our church, membership, programming andoutreach? These are all important questions.
Foundation work for good strategic planning has taken place in the past few years. Our congregation engagedin very deliberate inclusive processes to define our mission (our purpose) and our covenant (how we will bewith one another). The next step in good planning is to address the vision of an organization.
A vision is a carefully defined picture of the congregation’s future. It is not the current reality of the congrega-tion, but it is a dream of what the congregation wants to make of itself. The vision answers the following ques-tion: What do we want the congregation to look like in five or ten years as a result of its efforts in ministry,programing and outreach? With this direction from a vision we can develop long term-goals and begin askingquestions and planning for our future.
A joint committee of the Board and the COM has convened as a Vision Team, and, during the months of Janu-ary and February, members of the team will be seeking input from the congregation in various ways. We areplanning workshops or Forums open to all, as well as opportunities to provide input through small groups andvarious other organizations within First UU. Our approach will include questions to ask ourselves what wewant to be known for in the Richmond community. We can also think about what we want to be known for inthe UUA. If you have thoughts about the vision for First UU that you would like to share, feel free to email any
member of the Board. Otherwise, we hope you will take advantage of the opportunities that will be available early next
year. Stay tuned!
In Peace,
Dorothy Hollahan
Holidays! Festivities! Special Activities! Special Meals! Planning! Prepara-tion! Oops, a disaster! What do we do now?
Most of us have celebrated enough holidays by now that we have had something go wrong somewherealong the way. Otherwise, there would not be that age-old saying that begins, "You know the best laidplans...". Whenever those times arise, how we choose to respond determines how we will ultimatelymove through and incorporate the experience into memory. I recall one holiday when my mom, who typically turnedout homemade rolls of the highest reputation, put something on the table that more resembled hockey pucks. At first her faceseemed as though it would dissolve into tears, but as one of my brothers thanked her for the new sports equipment, we all instead,dissolved into laughter. After all, what's better after a good meal than a game of hockey-more family time, right?
Whatever holiday tradition you are looking forward to enjoying, may it contain a good dose of the unexpected and warm,satisfying memories. In hope ~ Rhonda

Religious Education Teachers for Winter/Spring
A vital ministry in the life of this church is the teaching of religious education. If you are prepared to offer three hours amonth to serve the children and families of the congregation, I want to talk with you! Teaching regularly allows you todevelop a satisfying rapport and understanding with the students. It sends the message to them that they are importanthere. It is also a magnificent way to meet other teachers, families, and welcome visitors to join us! The curriculum and allmaterials will be provided to you. Call or drop me an email – [email protected], 804-355-0777.
My little corner of the world. . .
This recent diagram came out from the Office of Youth and Young Adult Ministries of the UUA entitled “Coffee Hour Cau-tion” – Advice for older adults greeting young adults in Unitarian Universalist churches. I decided to include it in thenewsletter with one strong word of caution – I’m not calling out our older adults. I include it because I think it is good forALL of us to consider how we greet people and how the language we use can be used for powers of good. Sometimes,innocent questions can make others feel uncomfortable and unwelcomed.
I’ll invite each of us to look over the diagram and pay particular attention to the “say instead” suggestions. These aregreat conversation starters when you greet people anytime you are here at First UU, or when you are anywhere doinganything for that matter!
We have many visitors coming through our doors, and those visitors assess very quickly whether or not they are comfort-able. That feeling is less connected with material things, i.e., packets and papers and pamphlets and programs than it isto personal things, i.e., being acknowledged in a genuine way. We are each called to build beloved community, and ourfriendly (and genuine) greetings can very possibly be a doorway for someone looking for a spiritual home.
I invite all of us to percolate over the diagram (a larger printed version is in the coffee area), and brew some new ways ofgreeting folks in our community! Peace y’all,
Pat
How’s Post Racial America Workin’ for Ya?
Chinese [not the People’s Republic of China] are trade cheats and currency manipulators.The Food Stamp president.No one ever asked to see my birth certificate.Take our country back.I wish this president would learn how to be an American.
So here we are. We’ve reelected an African American president, warts and all, after 4 years of successes andfailures. We should be proud, right? We’ve turned a corner, haven’t we? But have we really vanquished ra-cialized dog-whistle politics?
If we took a step – an important step – in 2008, and if we have taken another step in 2012, what can we doto build on these and other steps to move toward a post racial America? Understanding the operation ofracialized thinking and structural racism will help a great deal. We are coming to understand how racehas informed the development of an American culture and ideology. Two recent examples:
Master of the Mountain by Henry Wiencek argues that President Jefferson’s racial attitudes weren’t aberrations but were integral to his politics and wealth creation.
Rev. Ben Campbell’s Richmond’s Unhealed History details ways that structural racism has constructed the political, economic, and social, as well as racial, geography of metropolitan Richmond.
The First Unitarian Universalist Church of Richmond will offer an opportunity to deepen our understandingof the ways racism and racialized thinking influence us, our congregations and our communities, and ofways we have available to overcome racism and move toward Beloved Community. On January 11th, 12th
and 13th, the church will sponsor Jubilee, the Unitarian Universalist Association’s antiracism curriculum.Our very experienced trainers, Jyaphia Christos-Rodgers of New Orleans, LA, and Leon Spencer of States-boro, GA, have conducted our training in prior years and are familiar with our congregation and our commu-nity.
I have spoken with people concerned that coming to an antiracism training weekend means that they will becalled a racist. I have attended 10 Jubilee weekends. Each one has been very different and I have learnednew things about being a White antiracist Unitarian Universalist each time. And I have never, never beencalled a racist. I found myself challenged every time and I have come to grips with broader and broader waysin which race has influenced me and my attitudes. I have discovered steps I can take to help dismantle rac-ism in my life, in my church, in my community and in my nation. I have always found these demandingweekends to be opportunities for growing and for becoming a better member of my faith community.
We are now registering for Jubilee to be held on January 11th, 12th and 13th. The church will subsidize halfof the costs for the training for our members and friends, and the registration fee is $75. We will make schol-arships available so no one interested in participating in Jubilee will be turned away due to the fee. Duringthe weekend, we will feed you very well with delicious meals prepared by local chefs from around the world.Anyone is welcome to join us for this weekend. Registration for those not associated with our church is$150. A limited number of places are available for the weekend so if you are interested in investing in thisvital work, register at the Jubilee table at church on Sundays, or contact Jim Armstrong [email protected]. We’re on our way and we won’t turn back, so come to Jubilee and get on board.

Meet-Ups start in mid-January
Already looking forward to the new year, the membership committee is beginning a series of meet-ups in January. Ourplans this year include two a month and we do hope you find them of interest. A brief re-cap of what meet-ups are: justcome if the topic interests you. There is no registration, fee or commitment. Those who show up set the agenda. Somemeet-ups from last year are still meeting; some met only once. That is entirely up to the energy and interest level of thosewho were present. The membership committee’s hope is that we can provide a forum to introduce members to others oflike interests.
Our January Meet-Ups are:
Tuesday, January 15, 7:00pm: Poverty
Adele MacLean, one of the church’s experts on social issues, will be present to guide a discussion where we see the pos-sibilities including poverty and ethics, the effects of poverty on those not living in poverty, the institutionalization of pover-ty, what can impact the food deserts that are found in Richmond and should we talk or should we take action?
Thursday, January 17, 7:00pm: Birding
We know we have experts on this topic in our church and we have many more on the road to becoming experts. Won’tyou share? There is so much to learn.

World AIDS Day has been observed on December 1 every year since 1988 to raise awareness about HIV and AIDS along
with commemorating those who have died from the disease. Although many advances have been made with medica-
tions and education, there are still too many people living with and dying from this deadly virus. In 2010, an estimated 34
million people were living with HIV/AIDS worldwide, including 3.4 million children. The theme this year for World AIDS
Day is “Getting to Zero: Zero new HIV infections. Zero discrimination. Zero AIDS-related deaths". The LGBTQ – Straight
Alliance will hold a Friday Witness for World AIDS Day on November 30. We will meet at the corner of Douglasdale and
Blanton at 5pm to show our support and continued awareness for HIV/AIDS. As always, these events are open to every-
one and we hope you will join us.
We would like to thank all the people in our congregation who have made the LGBTQ - Straight Alliance programming so
successful in the first half of the church year. Our projects included Richmond PRIDE, a Pizza Discussion Group, Transgen-
der Day of Remembrance, and the Witness for World AIDS Day. From volunteering to participate, to donating food, to
these other activities, we could not be as successful without you. We appreciate your support and willingness to partici-
pate in social justice with us. We look forward to 2013; if you have any suggestions for programming, please contact us
at [email protected]. Our meetings are held on the third Sunday of the month after second service.

Thanks to everyone who came to help rebuild the old garden beds, plant bulbs, har-vest and put the vegetable gardens to rest for the winter, and plant blueberry bushes. Growing Greene will have one moreCommunity Gardening Day this calendar year. On Saturday, December 1, we will complete the rebuilding of the older gar-dens in preparation for spring gardens. This is a great opportunity for gardeners and non-gardeners alike. ESH Greene islocated at 1745 Catalina Drive.

You can bring in your donations anytime, not just on Sunday morn-ings. Just put your items in the closet to the left of the Great Hall and we’ll see to it that they get to the Central VirginiaFoodBank. Volunteer opportunities at the food bank abound.

DIDJA KNOW….
When someone refers to a pamphlet today, we may think of the small tri-folds published by the U.U. Association, in-
formation attached to a prescription or the manufacturer’s directions enclosed with a purchase. By definition, “a
pamphlet is an unbound publication that is not a periodical and contains no fewer than 5 and no more than 48 pages,
exclusive of any cover.”
Pamphlets were among the first printed materials, inspired by the great religious controversies, in the 16th century.
Martin Luther was one of the earliest and most effective pamphleteers and promoters of the Protestant Reformation
used them to enflame popular opinion against the Pope and the Roman Catholic Church.
In England, they were used by propagandists to gain influence during the political and religious controversies of the
17th century. They played an important role in the debates between Anglican and Puritan and between the King and
Parliament during and after the English Civil Wars.
American pamphlet writers in the 18th century were influenced by the English stylistic modes of irony, parody and sar-
casm to express scorn, anger or indignation. Most of them were not authors but, for the most part, lawyers, ministers,
merchants, or planters. Satire was most commonly associated with the complete freedom of expression provided by
using pseudonymous authorship. Pamphlets include a large variety of topics but they share one distinctive character-
istic: to provide explanation. They were written to reveal a position taken and the reasons why the position was taken.
The pamphlet was a powerful influence in the 18th century in North America, providing the means to spread the politi-
cal agitation of such writers as Thomas Paine. The contributions of Alexander Hamilton, John Jay and James Madison
emerged as the Federalist Papers, marking the end of the pamphleteer’s era, as the 19th century arena of political dia-
logue moved into newspapers, periodicals, and bound books.
20th and 21st century pamphleteers use television ads and debate to promote party platforms. Anyone can set up a
website and write Blogs to express opinions on social issues, religious and political ideas, and civil rights. WHAT’S
NEXT???
