THE MEETINGHOUSE NEWS
First Parish in Cambridge, Unitarian Universalist
April 2015
Reflections from Senior Minister, Rev. Fred Small
“I am going to notice the lights of the earth, the sun and the moon and the
stars, the lights of our candles as we march, the lights with which spring teases
us, the light that is already present.”
Until I read these words of Anne Lamott, I never realized how the tiny flames
of candles reflect the stars in the night sky.
Every Sunday, we invite worshipers “to light a candle or drop a pebble in the sand at the front of
the Meetinghouse as you hold in your heart a joy or sorrow.”
Every Sunday, dozens of people file forward, waiting patiently in long lines.
This practice has a long history and some detractors.
Fire has been an element of worship since before recorded time. Many religions light candles to
honor ancestors and saints. There is something mystical and magical in a flickering flame.
In smaller Unitarian Universalist churches, individuals are often invited during worship to share
their joys and sorrows orally. This practice can be powerful when people speak their truth from
the heart or mark turning points in their lives, less so when they use the opportunity to
announce an upcoming event or opine on politics. Sometimes the same people speak every
Sunday, while others never do.
As congregations grow and the speaking of joys and sorrows demands more and more worship
time, they tend to leave this practice behind. If not, they don’t grow.
Silent candles of joy and sorrow offer the chance to connect with one’s internal life through a
simple ritual act. Like Christian communion, Muslim prayer, and Buddhist prostration, lighting a
candle is an embodied act of worship shared with others in community. Anyone who has
difficulty moving to the front of the sanctuary can ask an usher or another worshiper to light a
candle for them. Many who remain seated appreciate the contemplative music and a few
moments of meditation and reflection.
Of course, candles cost money. Lighting them takes time and burns carbon. So far, their
benefit seems to exceed their cost, but that’s a question the Worship Associates and I will
continue to ponder.
We now have three tables of candles and one sand tray with stones. If you’re standing in a
candle line and you notice a significantly shorter queue at another candle table, please move to
the shorter queue to lessen waiting time.
If you have thoughts or questions about candles you’d like to share with the Worship Associates,
or if you’d like a Worship Associate to light a candle on your behalf, please email
worship@firstparishcambridge.org.
We’ll be glad to hear from you.
Blessings,
Fred

Descending into Heaven
Many religions assume that heaven is above
us somewhere, and we must strive to ascend
there. But what if heaven is below us, and
all we have to do is let go—and fall?
Multigenerational Easter service interpreted
in American Sign Language.
Rev. Fred Small preaches.
April 12
Horizon Wireless
What is on the horizon? From the social
justice movements of the last 60 years to
rapid technological advances that touch
nearly every aspect of our lives, there has
been much positive progress, but there is
also still much left to change. First Parish
Cambridge’s Youth Group offers reflections on
the past, present, and visions for the future.
April 19
The Necessity of Hope
Despite all the bad news about climate—or
perhaps because of it—hope isn't wishful
thinking. It's an essential strategy—and a
spiritual practice. In this special worship
service honoring Earth Day, Rev. Fred
Small preaches.
April 26
Hard to Ride a Bike That’s Not Moving
As spiritual people, we often value slowing
down, taking our time, and being intentional.
And - there are also power in following the
impulse of spirit and the bold call of action.
Rev. Elizabeth Nguyen preaches about
dirt biking, among other things.

It’s the Annual
Easter Egg Hunt!
Please join us for our traditional
children’s Easter Egg Hunt, hosted by
the Youth Group, immediately following
the worship service on April 5. They
and the Easter Bunny need your help!
Please donate candy in the marked
bins on Sunday, April 5 so the youth
can stuff and hide eggs! Small,
individually wrapped candy is preferred.
Thanks for your generosity!
Following the service on April 5, children
should bring baskets and gather in the
Library for directions. The Youth Group
will decide by April 4 whether the Egg
Hunt will take place indoors or in the
Old Burying Ground.
Children of different ages will have
separate areas to hunt for eggs, and the
youngest children will have their chance
first. Parents and guardians, please
help your child(ren) pay attention to
their location and timing.
During the hunt, childrren are asekd to
be mindful of our Covenant and our
orange promist to each other to “Be
kind in all you do”. Childremn agreed
to do their best to have fun and help
the other children have fun! This
means being mindful of how many of us
are participating and taking only your
fair share.
If your child has food sensitivities or
allergies, please see Director of
Religious Education Mandy Neff to trade
your candy in for allergen-free candy at
the end of the Egg Hunt.
Thanks and Hoppy Hunting!

RELIGIOUS EDUCATION CORNER by Mandy Neff
With the advent of spring, many of our efforts in RE this year are blossoming! Our 7
Principles Puppets are almost ready for their debut, our 6th graders have shown incredible
leadership, and our Youth Group is preparing to lead worship on April 12. Keep reading for
more about the children’s exciting accomplishments.
Immigration Quiz Show and Potluck
The 6th graders' Immigration Quiz Show was a smash success! Participants feasted
on Chinese dumplings, Yorkshire pudding and chicken paprikas, and admired the people
decorations from our 2-3rd graders.
Our 6th graders created a Jeopardy board and led us through the questions they have been
learning about this year in RE. Six teams competed in the Quiz Show on categories like
History, the US citizenship test, and Immigration Today. We even got to see a real Green
Card - they're actually beige! Everyone from kindergarten to adult had a great time, and
our canned food drive netted over 200 pounds of food for Chelsea Collaborative.
Thank you all for your generosity!
7 Principles Puppets
Our children have finished painting their 7 Principles Puppets. This year they
decided which animals matched each of the 7 Principles, then built giant papier
mache animals. In March we finished painting them to match the rainbow!
Each color stands for one of our 7 Principles. Here’s our Yellow Unicorn!
We also have the red butterfly, symbol of migration, to show that each and
every person is important… the orange penguin, playful and gentle, to
remind us to be kind in all we do… the yellow unicorn, wild and pure symbol
of freedom to learn together… the green wolf searching and hunting for what
is true… the roaring blue lion reminding us that all people need a voice… the indigo stegosaurus,
a gentle giant vegetarian to remind us to build a fair and peaceful world… and a purple bee, the
pollinator that shows us how to care for our planet Earth.
The children and many volunteer adults have been working on the animals all year and they are
almost ready for their grand appearance! Over the next two months we will help them come to
life with some fabric details and a return visit from Bruce Orr of Mudeye Puppets who will help us
engineer some flapping wings, moving parts, and wearable backpacks.
Look for the children's 7 Principles Puppets on parade, June 14th during the RE Sunday worship.
In faith,
Mandy

Youth Housing Project Approved by the Congregation!
At the Special Congregational meeting on March 29, we voted, 65-2, in favor of leasing the
auditorium to the Phillips Brooks House Association (PSHA/Harvard University) and Youth on
Fire(YOF)/AIDS Action Committee for the purpose of housing a youth drop-in center and youth
homeless shelter subject to the successful completion of lease negotiations that are currently
underway.
The project and the general terms of the proposed lease were presented by Susan Shepherd,
Sylvia Wheeler and Cade Murray who are working on the lease negotiations for First Parish. Mike
Wiggins has been providing legal services.
When the lease is complete and signed, construction on the auditorium will begin. PBHA is
funding the entire renovation with an intended completion date of October.
We had a great discussion about the project, our mission, our finances and the other challenges
facing us. We look forward to the renovation of the auditorium, but more importantly to
partnering with two fine organizations providing needed services to homeless young people,
particularly BGLTQ youth. For more information about this project, go to our website

April Shared Offering
The April recipient of our Shared Offering is The Louis D. Brown Peace Institute, founded in 1994
after the murder of Louis D. Brown. The Peace Institute is a non-profit organization dedicated to
educating young people and the community about the value of peace and assisting survivors of
homicide victims with immediate crisis management services and ongoing support to continue to
make Louis’ vision a reality.
The Peace Institute rapidly grew into an agency reflecting best practices in offering a safe space
for guidance and support to families during the most difficult times of their lives and also
became a model for peace education to the city that Louis D. Brown called home.
The Peace Institute works with the community as well as government agencies and NGO’s to
promote education, collaboration, and policy advocacy at local, regional, state, and national
levels. As an organization founded and staffed by families impacted by violence, the Peace
Institute understands the many obstacles and barriers that families of homicide victims and
families of prisoners must address, and then move beyond the shame, pain and trauma
associated with their experience in order to begin to advocate for themselves and others.

Annual Fund Drive Update
Each year we commit anew to supporting First Parish in Cambridge through our annual fund
drive, which makes possible the work of the church. This drive is for the fiscal year July, 2015June, 2016. Your pledge helps First Parish plan its annual budget, make salary and expense
commitments, and in general make good decisions. You need not be a member to pledge; if
you find value in this community and wish to help sustain it, your financial commitment is much
appreciated!
This year’s fund drive was a little different—thank you for trying something new. 32 of you took
the role of Visiting Stewards and are meeting one-to-one with many in our congregation. The
Stewardship committee decided as many members as possible should be invited into one-toone meetings because we wanted not just to raise money but also to broaden and deepen
relationships among us. Unfortunately we did not have enough volunteers to meet with
everyone. Another difference this year is to highlight the UUA Fair Share Giving Guidelines.
How are we doing?
The results so far are inspiring. Thank you for your generosity.
The pledges received so far show a significant increase from last year:
110 pledges that total $251,891, an increase over the same pledge units last
year of $28,651.
We expect more pledges to come in over the next few weeks. The Stewardship Committee
believes we can reach $295,000-$300,000.
If you intend to pledge but haven’t done so yet, please do it today! You’ll save our leaders’ time
and energy so we can all continue to focus on the mission of First Parish. There are several
ways you can do this:

Pledge online at firstparishcambridge.org/pledge

Call or email Carol Lewis at the church office:
617-876-7772
office@firstparishcambridge.org

Contact anyone on the Stewardship Committee or email us:
stewardship@firstparishcambridge.org
Thank you for your support for First Parish. Thank you for participating in a different kind of
annual fund drive. Much of what we’ve tried this year is new to us as well—we hope to learn
from our mistakes, and we’d appreciate your feedback so that we can do better next year.
Please share your feelings and suggestions. You can reach out to any of us on the committee or
email us at stewardship@firstparishcambridge.org
Thank you,
Stewardship Committee

Circle Dance Meditation
Thursdays, April 2 and April 16
7:45 PM – 9:00 PM in the Barn Room
Circle Dance is a moving meditation done to
beautiful world music in a supportive circle of
community. Moving in unison with others
creates a visceral experience of Oneness. The
dances are fairly simple and straightforward,
often involving just a few steps, and are
taught anew every time. When the body is
engaged in these simple, repetitive motions
and resonating to powerful music, the mind
slips into a meditative state, stress falls away,
and peace and joy well up effortlessly. CDM is
a free offering. Please arrive early and bring
water. It's best to dance barefoot, but clean
street shoes may be used. Questions to

Cracking the Codes:
The System of Inequity
Film Screening and Dialogue
Event Sunday, April 12
Join us for a special film screening and
discussion on the causes and
consequences of systemic inequity in
America. Widely acclaimed as both
challenging and uplifting, Cracking the
Codes will help us to disentangle internal
beliefs, attitudes and pre-judgements
within, and to build skills to address the
structural drivers of social and economic
inequities. We will deepen and shift the
framing of racial disparities from focus on
individuals to institutional and structural
injustices. We will discuss how we can
apply what we learn to relationships at
First Parish.
This event, brought to you by the
Transformation Team, will be facilitated
by Susan Shepherd and Ministerial
Intern, Seanan Fong.
Sunday, April 12 in the Chapel from
12:30 pm to 1:30 pm.
Snacks will be provided.

Middle East Education Group News
The Middle East Education Group invites you to an illustrated lecture by Dr. Beatrice St. Laurent
on Sunday April 19 at 12:30 in the Chapel. The event is free and open to the public. Please feel
free to invite your friends.
THE DOME OF THE ROCK: SYMBOL OF JERUSALEM
Throughout the centuries the Dome of Rock
has been and continues to be the symbol of
Jerusalem for all with its golden dome
dominating the Old City. Built between 660
and 692CE, the Dome of the Rock is a
commemorative structure constructed over a
rock and located on the Haram Al-Sharif or
the Temple Mount in the Old City of
Jerusalem. It was part of a grander urban
scheme planned for early Islamic Jerusalem,
which included a large mosque constructed
between 639 and 660 in time for the
investiture of the first Umayyad caliph. The
many changes and restorations of the Dome
of the Rock document and reflect the political
and historical transformation of both the
Haram al-Sharif and the city of Jerusalem.
Dr. Beatrice St. Laurent holds a PhD in
Islamic Art and Architecture from Harvard
University and is Professor of Art History at
Bridgewater State University. Between 1990
and 1995, her research focused on the
Ottoman period restorations completed
between 1545 and 1917. Since 2008, she
and her co-author Isam Awwad, who was
the Chief Architect and Conservator of the
monuments of the Haram al-Sharif for 32
years, have been researching and preparing
for publication a volume on the 20th and 21st
century restorations of the Aqsa Mosque and
the Dome of the Rock. Currently, she and
Awwad are co-authoring a book on the first
Umayyad caliph Mu’awiya’s urban
development of Jerusalem in the 7th century,
which included the city’s first mosque, his
palace, and an administrative district.
Two Exciting Climate Events
April brings two opportunities for action--UU Mass Action’s annual lobby day and Harvard Heat
Week, a week of events to persuade Harvard trustees to divest from fossil fuels.
Bill McKibben, the writer and activist who
inspired the fossil fuel divestment
movement, will kick off Harvard Heat Week
on Sunday, April 11, at 6:00 PM at First
Parish. Wednesday, April 14, will be
interfaith action day on campus, with a rally
at 8:30 PM, and Saturday, April 17, will be
the culminating Heat Week rally. Come to
as many events as you can to support this
campaign; EJTF will have details at coffee
hours. Lesley College has decided to divest.
If Harvard follows suit, it will profoundly
affect the national conversation on climate
change. For details, see
http://harvardheatweek.org/schedule/
April 14 is also UU Mass Action’s annual
lobby day at the State House. The day will
begin at 9:30 AM at the Arlington Street
Church with presentations on key legislation
on economic justice, immigration rights, and
ending mass incarceration, as well as fossil
fuel divestment and other key climate
legislation. This is an excellent chance for
Unitarian Universalists to make themselves
heard on these connected issues. Details

Congregational Conversation on Music
On March 1, 2015, about 40 people gathered for the first Congregational Conversation to reflect
and share our personal experiences of music at First Parish and discuss how we might improve
our efforts to welcome diversity and make music a transformative experience on both a
personal level and for First Parish as a whole. The discussions were lively and reflected a deep
commitment to our mission of diversity and inclusion.
Many acknowledged that music is a wonderful way to experience another culture and
intentionally inclusive. But what kind of music should we include? There were many suggestions
including: more Gospel, more non-Gospel, more variety that is not Christian, more organ, more
drums, more instrumental music, and more “popular culture” songs with spiritual messages.
Others provided feedback on the challenge of learning new songs – both in English and other
languages. Some recommended that we repeat songs more frequently so that they become
more familiar. Some suggested that printed words for some songs would be helpful. Others
felt the opposite, stating that printouts of lyrics and translation make things too complicated
and prevents us from singing facing each other. One size does not fit all, but we're excited to
stretch together to bring each of our full and beautiful selves into community.
Being open to the diversity of our musical likes and dislikes opens us to a wonderful opportunity for
community building. Several suggested that we host family friendly potlucks and songfests
because they want to learn more diverse music and the familiarity helps us feel more comfortable.
It would also give us an opportunity to learn more about other cultures and traditions.
Even with just these highlights of the conversation, it is clear that musical diversity is a key
piece of living our mission and our transformation to be a multicultural, multiracial, justice
seeking congregation. The conversation will continue. Transformation Team, Music and
Worship Committees are planning next steps so please stay tuned!
The 2nd Congregational Conversation will be on May 31 and will focus on Religious Education,
multigenerational events, and our ministry to families at First Parish. All are warmly welcomed
and invited to attend!

Fighting for Immigration Justice: A vigil in Boston
by Rashid Shaikh
The vigil is almost over. Does anybody else want to speak? Yes – someone shouts from the
back. A petite woman charges forward. She takes the microphone: her voice hoarse, her body
trembling, her eyes full of tears. You cannot ignore her voice even if you are deaf. Never mind
if you – like me – don’t know Spanish. Her pain and exasperation are flowing out of every pore
of her body. She switches to English: “Jesus; I love you. I love you for you.” “No more
deportations,” we all chant. “No more deportations.”
We are facing a big, imposing building, the Suffolk County Correctional Facility. There are some
50 of us – including several from First Parish in Cambridge -- gathered outside on a beautiful
spring Sunday in 2012. There are more than 250 detainees inside there!
Two kids – a girl about 12 and a boy about 9 – have come forward and are hugging their mom.
They are crying inconsolably.
Julie comes forward; she knows Spanish. Jesus was picked up two weeks ago by the
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) people. He is not in good health; Jesus has heart
and kidney problems! Has he seen a doctor? No, next week; they’ve promised him. Hope his
health does not deteriorate, I silently pray. I ask Julie if she has a lawyer; yes, says the woman.
Does she need any help; in any way, can any of us do anything? No, thank you; she is just very
grateful that we have come out in support of the detainees. She does not need anything.
We chant, we sing, we pray. We read the names of more than a hundred who have died in
detention; the last one in this very facility. Their only crime: they did not have their “papers.”
Nor did the pilgrims!
Some inside the building have gathered at their windows. Waving, pounding, they are looking
out. We can barely make out their faces, but we can see their hands and arms. And make out
human forms. It is all blurry, except for the inhumanity of the incarceration!
Cars drive by on the road. A few honk. Others pay no attention. Across the street, in one of the
windows, they have put up a sign, one letter at a time: FREE US.
We disperse. I drive back with friends. I keep wondering, though: how is she coping with this
situation? How would I cope? And, how long will this insanity go on? How long will we – all of
us – let it go on?
The next Boston New Sanctuary Movement vigil at the Suffolk County South Bay House of
Corrections is Sunday, April 19, at 2:00 pm. The jail is located at 20 Bradston St, Boston, MA
02118. Members of First Parish who plan to go will be meeting during Social Hour that day.
Please come with us. The more people join us, the louder our voice will be. For more

IYAD BURNAT: Non-Violent Resistance in Palestine
Iyad Burnat, born in 1973 in Bil`in, Palestine, heads the Bil`in Popular Committee. Since 2005,
citizens of Bil`in, joined by Israeli and international peace activists, have held weekly non-violent
demonstrations against the Israeli separation wall and the encroachment of illegal settlements.
The protesters have maintained a commitment to non-violent resistance in the face of armed
military opposition. The demonstrations are the subject of the 2012 Oscar-nominated
documentary film 5 Broken Cameras, which was made by Iyad¹s brother, Emad Burnat. Iyad
discusses strategies for non-violent popular resistance with social justice activist Trina Jackson.
How has he brought potential adversaries to share his goal of peace and prosperity for all people?

The Health of Democracy: Voter Suppression and Disenfranchisement
Political scientist Erin O'Brien explores current efforts to restrict access to the ballot, through
both legislative and judicial changes in states across the nation. Journalist Phillip Martin
responds with examples from the Civil Rights Movement of citizen actions, including civil
disobedience, that opened ballot access to previously disenfranchised African Americans. How
can citizens respond when the ideals of democracy come into conflict with the policies of
government?

Research Center, discusses this ground-breaking study and its implications for the health of our
democracy. What can citizens do to create and support effective community dialogues aimed at
strengthening social bonds?
