Seeking God Sharing LoveServing Others

Volume 43, Issue 30

If you have been part of the congregational survey, attended the congregational breakfast, or volunteered for one of our South Hall outreach ministries you know that the programs housed there are making a huge impact on lives but have also outgrown the building. The Nashville Food Project serves over 600 meals a week to Nashville’s poor and homeless in seven neighborhoods.  Every  Tuesday  and  Thursday  night 75 or more gather for AA meetings, and every Friday night from November through March dedicated Woodmonters host 12 homeless guests for three meals and a warm bed through Room in the Inn. In addition, every Monday the Nashville Pipes and Drums hold band practice while other groups also use the building for a variety of purposes. These ministries, and others, ranked just behind worship in importance in our congregational survey. At the congregational breakfast, the idea of a modest expansion to the building was presented and a committee enlisted to explore the possibilities.  A plan was developed which benefited all South Hall ministries by providing the vital additional space needed to accommodate the groups.  However, when the pricing came in, it became an estimated $400,000 project, much higher than anyone had imagined. One of the most significant expenses was a requirement by metro codes to make significant improvements to the entire building. This amounted to over $130,000 of the total cost. By way of comparison, if we were to simply tear down and replace the existing square footage and add the modest amount proposed,  the cost would  be at least $1,500,000. If we were to redesign and replace the existing building for these programs it would be larger, increasing the cost even more. At a called board meeting on November 3rd, after almost two hours of discussion, the board voted to table the project. It was felt that, although the addition and renovations would be highly beneficial, the $400,000

price tag was too much to tackle at this time. Without up-front pledges and gifts, it is not a responsible move. Although we are tabling the expansion for now, the board is continuing to wrestle with solutions to our space challenges; David Conrad and Thom Schuyler are convening teams to identify specific limited alternatives that significantly improve the facility and enhance our outreach ministries.   We appreciate all the serious planning and work that has gone into this process. Although the initial outcome is disappointing, we will continue to provide space for these ministries and care for those Christ calls us to serve. If anyone has questions about the project, please don’t hesitate to call or e-mail me.

Yours in Christ,

South Hall Expansion Tabled

by Roy Stauffer

One of the exciting things about being a Christian is that it always opens you to new ideas, new ways of thinking, and new ways of experiencing God and God’s love in this world.  Today, after more than forty years in ministry, I am very excited and passionate about something new I’m discovering. It’s called Celtic Spirituality. ....My wife Anne has been familiar with (and into) Celtic Spirituality for a long time. In fact,

our relationship got started when I was showing her my cross collection from all over the world. I noticed a box that had another cross in it and I said, “Let’s see what this is.” It turned out to be a Celtic Cross and when she saw it, she exclaimed, “That’s my very favorite cross!” I asked her if she wanted it, and as they say “the rest is history.” Little did I know that three years later the Celtic Cross would come to have such great meaning to me. The Celtic Cross has both a cross symbol and a circle symbol pointing to the way of Christ and the interrelatedness of all things. The cross and the circle share the same center pointing to the fact that Christ and creation spring forth from the same Source, which is the heart of God. In 2015 I plan to offer a Wednesday night class on Celtic Spirituality. This class will use as a main source a book by John Philip Newell entitled The Rebirthing of God. We will have copies of this book available in the book store after the beginning of the New Year. In a time when dramatic changes are taking place in Western Christianity, Celtic Spirituality offers

a fresh stirring of the Spirit among us and a deeper understanding of God for us. The chapters of this book, which will be the topic for many of the class sessions, are:• Reconnecting with the Earth

Coming back into relationship with the sacredness of the earth.• Reconnecting with Compassion

The courage to see, feel, and act compassionately.• Reconnecting with the Light

Looking for the Light of God which is at the heart of all life.• Reconnecting with the Journey

Traveling beyond the bounds of our own religious inheritance.• Reconnecting with Spiritual Practice

Learning to experience the Sacred, rather than just believe in the Sacred.• Reconnecting with Nonviolence

Learning “soul-force” in a world of violence and “brute-force.”• Reconnecting with the Unconscious

Learning to access the depths of the unconscious, especially through dreams, myth, and the imagination.

• Reconnecting with Love Learning how to truly connect with God, ourselves, and others.

....Watch for further announcements about this upcoming class after Christmas. I look forward to spending time with those who are truly interested in deeper Spirituality. - Roy

This summer and fall have been busy for me. I’ve been traveling a lot, bringing songs and stories and carrying my guitar from Southern California to northeastern Delaware, from south Texas up to Lake Michigan. It’s been quite an exciting few months. Yesterday, I was with Stephen in the Sonoran Desert, admiring the saguaro cactus forests. Today, I’m in a Tennessee thunderstorm, our sugar maple tree dropping leaves like rainfall. The world is full of all kinds of beauty, isn’t it? And yet, too often, I think, we act like we want everyone to share the same definition of what makes us beautiful. The desert landscape couldn’t be more different from a thunderstorm, but both are stunningly beautiful. Friends, don’t be fooled by the narrow definition of beauty that marketers are selling us. Beauty comes in all shapes and sizes, in smells and sensations - all of this big, beautiful world waiting for us to discover it, to enjoy it, and to add to it with our own efforts to make the world more beautiful, more available for everyone to enjoy.

Be good to one another. See the good in one another. See everyone as beautiful, precious, and worthy of being treasured. Look, too, for bleak places that are in need of beauty-bringing. God made each one of us to be both beautiful and beauty-filling in the world. This is sacred work. Let’s do it together! - Andra

What is it?  A system which sends a signal to hearing aids for clearer sound, especially making speech more intelligible.How does it work?  An antenna (Loop) surrounding the main floor pews sends an “induction” signal to your hearing aids.Will my aids work?  Yes, if they have a telephone program.  Unless they are antiques, they will.What do I do?  Your aids will have either telephone circuit with a switch or it may work by digital program.  To find out how yours works and if it needs to be reprogrammed, check with your audiologist.  Then, just sit in the pews on the main floor, and turn them to the correct mode.  And don’t forget to switch them back to normal as you leave, or your aids will impede normal conversation.When do we start?  If all goes as planned, You can start using this on Sunday, November 23.                               Whom do we thank?  Ellen Dillon initiated interest in this and saw it through with the Property Committee.

NEW CHECK-IN SYSTEM The system features a perforated sticker like the yellow one to the left. One portion is for your child’s name and important info. The other acts as a stub for you to turn-in when your child is picked-up. Each Sunday, complete the information, and place the sticker on your child’s back. Sometimes, as they say, "low tech is the best tech." To prevent congestion, they will be available at several points of entry – the Narthex, Kids Commons, Gathering Hall, and side doors to the sanctuary. Staff will be available to assist you or answer questions. On behalf of all who work with children, thank you very much for your patience, good cheer, and cooperation as we keep them safe and accounted for.
