OBSERVING THE 10TH

ANNIVERSARY OF 9/11

Do you think as do many commentators do that the world changed for America on that fateful day we simplycall 9/11? Did we lose our innocence, our sense of invulnerability? Did we suddenly become a victim in need offinding a new normal?

Ten years later we are negotiating all of that and facing the moral hazards that are incumbent. We are not apowerless, voiceless or marginalized victim says one commentator. . (1)We managed to quickly give into thetemptation to mix lethality with a righteous anger and unflinching power. The temptation is a moral challenge touse victimization as a shield to deflect moral questions, a false permissiveness to say never again, or to dowhatever it takes. The question after 10 years: Are we harvesting the bitter fruit of that decision?

Jesus calls us to the Wilderness test of our own actions and faithfulness to notice the log in our own eye even

when we have been wronged. We are called to be a moral people under all circumstances, willing to imaginealternatives to violence that lead us to forgive those who trespass against us as we have been forgiven ourtrespasses.

The church has taught the gospel of patience, love, kindness, compassion and forgiveness; but can we say thatwe passed the minimum achievement test?

I have read that the 9/11 Memorial project at ground zero will be Olympian in size with two pools, covering anacre each, symbolizing the foot print of the twin towers into which four-sided waterfalls will cascade 30 feet. Amuseum will occupy the space in between the pools with a forest of trees, including the lone survivor tree; andthe 2, 983 names etched in stone. Apparently, those rubber wristbands are available that read 9/ll Memorial United by Hope.

Memorials help us to remember just like our Memorial Garden at church helps our own people remember,mourn and live. Too often we are united by hate and anger. So, how shall we observe the 10th anniversary of9/11? The wristband says it best; let us be united by hope on this anniversary. The 9/11 Memorial is meant torecall the spirit of the exceptional unity in the nation and the world in those precious days following the tragedy.There will be a brief moment in our worship that day to bear witness to the all too brief experience of a nationsand a worlds collective capacity to come together.

I pray for those moments.

Faithfully,Craig (1) Michael Lindvall, Christian Century, August 18, 2011

Services of Healing(Following the Order of St. Luke)

The Last Wednesday of Each Month at 7:00 pm

(The Chancel of the Sanctuary)

The pastor is offering Services of Healing. Spiritual Healing is about engaging the Spirit of God and bringingour whole being, mind, body, and soul, into relationship with the Holy which can indeed, result in healing.

This is an ancient ministry of the church which began with the Apostles, first recorded in the Gospel of Mark

6:13 when Jesus sent out the twelve who anointed many who were sick and cured them. In the letter of

James 5:14 the community is instructed to call upon the elders of the church to pray over the sick, to forgivesins, and to anoint with oil in the name of the Lord. Healing is not restricted to a time, place or form as God

provides for our need. The service is quite simple and intimate with candlelight, music, prayer, scripture,

and a brief message, preparing one to come before God and receive personal prayer, laying on of hands andanointing with Holy Oil by the pastor. The service ends with Holy Communion. You are invited to attend

just to see and listen, come for a friend or family member or let them come with you, come for your own

healing or for the simple need to be reconciled with God and others.

The Search Committee continues to meet on a weekly basis and we are well under way. We met with KarenZiel, Minister of Christian Education with the UCC at our first meeting back in July and have made great

progress. Our committee has spent time getting to know one another, praying together and discussing how

we will move forward with small focus groups. We have decided to ask a sampling of Congregationmembers to meet with us in a small group format to answer various questions. We will follow the

Appreciative Inquiry process which is a collaborative and participatory method for seeking, identifying

and enhancing the life giving forces and potential of a congregation and building a future based on these

insights and practices. Our goal after meeting with each group is to present to the Congregation ourrecommendation for filling the Children & Families Ministry position. Invitations to the small groups will

be going out in the mail very soon. If you receive an invitation, we are hoping you will take an hour out of

your week to meet with us and share your thoughts. If you didnt receive an invitation, please dont worry.We want to hear from you! Our final group will be open to everyone who would like to talk with us. Our

groups will meet at Rick Allens home and childcare will be provided. Thank you for joining in our efforts

to determine the future of Children & Families Ministry at First Church.

MEMBER CARE MISSION GROUPMEMBER CARE MISSION GROUPMEMBER CARE MISSION GROUPMEMBER CARE MISSION GROUP

As you probably know, the ministry teams of the Member Care Group encompass a wide array of goals and

activities, and teams also vary in the commitment of time required of its team members. We offer a brief

recap here for those who may wish to play an additional role in the life of our church.

Greeters

We welcome members and visitors alike on Sunday mornings, and also help visitors find their way around;

team members are called upon to serve every 4 or 5 weeks, and arrive by 9:30 on those Sundays. After our

initial meeting last year, weve been self-organizing with a simple sign-up sheet.

Hospitality

Coffee hour is our most prominent role. Each Sunday a trio of team members set out donated snacks, serve

coffee and juice, and tidy up afterwards. Baked goods and other snacks are provided each week by others,who may be team members or simply be anyone who cares to contribute on an occasional basis; the sign-up

sheet for baking is in the Connector. This team also takes responsibility for helping families and caterers

with receptions. We are always looking for bakers and pourers for coffee hour.

New Member Team

We organize gatherings for visitors who may be interested in joining our church; these take place a few times

a year, meeting after church for two consecutive Sundays. We also get together as a team once or twice ayear to discuss programs, ideas and news, but otherwise communicate by email or on-the-fly at church.

Parish Care

The name says it allwe represent God and the church by offering care to parishioners who are ill, orgrieving, or are otherwise in need of loving support. We meet as needed to exchange ideas, hear from experts

in the field, and to update information on those in their care.

PrayerShawl

Our team dedicates itself to knitting shawls as a symbol of Christian comfort and support, and also to offer

prayers for those in need and for each other. Gatherings also offer an opportunity to spend some quiet social

time together.

PrayerTeam

Our circle gathers to offer prayers for those in need.

If youd like to find out more about any of these ministry teams, let us know.

Due to the storm, Susan Consoli of Family and Children Services tells us there is a desperate

need for replacement food, shoes, clothing and school supplies for children. If you would

like to help by purchasing Wal-Mart and Stop & Shop cards, this would enable them to buy

all of these items for the families hard hit by the hurricane. Please bring cards to the church

office and we will deliver them to Susan Consoli.

Please call Susan Consoli, the Social Services Coordinator, at 860-395-3188 if you have any

CROP Walk Team

I wish to again thank all those from First Church who participated in crop walk in so many ways. Especially,

team members -- Karen Vradenburgh, Liz Lawlor, Paul Liberty, Stuart Haines, and Lajla Haines. Don't

know about anyone else, but I look forward to doing it again. Will be posting a sign up sheet to join theCROP Walk 2012 Team soon. Would like to have an informal gathering with Team 2011 and those

interested in joining for 2012 in early October so we can discuss what we did right and wrong and how to

improve the next CROP Walk.

TRTRTRTRUSTEES GROUPUSTEES GROUPUSTEES GROUPUSTEES GROUP

The Annual Church Meeting will be held on Sunday, September 18. The agenda for this year will includeseveral important items.

The one-year trial period of a new church structure is coming to a close. The congregation must now chooseto extend the trial period, adopt the temporary structure as a permanent addition, or elect to move in some

other direction. The Board of Trustees encourages everyone to attend this meeting. Your voice and opinion

are important.

Additionally, The Board of Trustees has approved a new Legacy Fund Policy replacing the outdated 1996

version prepared when the Legacy Fund was begun. The Board intends to bring this policy to the

congregation for approval as a church policy regarding how we handle the Legacy Fund. The policymakes clear that the fund is not intended to be used for normal yearly operation of the church those regular

expenses are paid for by our annual pledges, and other regular income (and Seward Fund supplements).

Each year, the Trustees will propose a use for the annual earnings of the Legacy Fund, subject to review and

approval by the congregation. The earnings used will normally be held to a level that can be sustained

indefinitely without depleting the principal of the Fund. The earnings can be used for almost anything thatthe congregation feels supports the ministry and mission of First Church. The only real restriction is that no

more than 25% can be allocated to the church annual budget, and then only by approval of a 2/3 majority.

The policy also addresses investment guidelines and lists the responsibilities of the Legacy Committee and

the Board of Trustees. The policy formalizes the procedures currently being followed to invest and

safeguard the Fund. The policy is available in the church office for review. The Trustees and Legacy

Committee members would be happy to answer questions or discuss the policy with you.

And with this meeting comes the end of my term with the Board of Trustees. I am honored and grateful for

the many years of support and confidence in me, but I am most grateful for your friendship. My sincere andheartfelt thanks to you and your families for all you have done. May the love of the Holy Spirit stay with

you always.

Pastors Note

In Preparation The Church Meeting Sunday, Sept. 18

WHY TEAM MINISTRY AND GOVERNANCE CHANGE *

Craig Whitcher, Pastor

Visitors from other religions or planets might be forgiven for misclassifying board and committee meetings

among the sacred rites of the Christian religion. Meetings, with their dry liturgy of motions, seconds,minutes, and reports, give comfort and security to some, because thats what they are used to, while driving

others crazyparticularly those who expect results and action more than extended conversations about pros

and cons of possible approaches to activities that may or may not one day become actions.

It is not actually meetings that drive people nutsmost of us enjoy productive meetings and the

fellowshipit is the perpetual lack of clarity in many congregations about who makes what decision. Layleaders burn out like old brake pads from the start-and-stop decision-making tempo. People who have

regular jobs and carry assigned projects from start to finish find it hard to understand why relatively small

decisions require long discussion, often at not one but several meeting tables. Indeed, sometimes the churchis not unlike Congress in its inability to something constructive and responsive to it stated purpose to follow

the Way of Christ.

Leaders burn out and disappear, but do not necessarily complain. Goodhearted folk excuse or even justify

tedious decision-making methods, calling them the congregational way. In many congregations, it is more

comfortable to raise doubts about religious doctrine than to question the board and committee system.

Questioning the Unquestionable

This is changing in churches as you may have learned. For a variety of reasons, leaders in congregations of

all kinds have begun to question the unquestionable. Sometimes the departure of too many governing boardmembers triggers this rethinking. Sometimes a strategic planning process launches an imaginative plan that

quickly founders in the sandy shoals of governance. Sometimes an exceptionally vital, growingcongregation notices that its most innovative programs have emerged only when someone, in despair ofworking though the formal structure, worked around it. That is what members of First Church said in theirfocus groups and was included in your Church Profile that brought me to First Church. As you know, I am

an advocate of such needed change called Team Ministry. I have been working on this concept since 2002,

first created by Church Development Consultants, Easum & Bandy, and then refined by the Alban Institutein Washington D.C.

This has not been easy work, having taken us two years to come to this place of finally voting whether wekeep Team Ministry after just a years trial or return to Boards and Committees. Churches naturally resist

changenot because the people in them are especially conservative, but because conserving is what

institutions like the church do. They codify and repeat patterns of behaviorbuilding trust by repetition,growing in proficiency by practice, building a clear brand through consistent and predictable performance.

Of course all institutions resist change. But communities of faith resist it for a special reason: almost

anything they do regularly quickly becomes part of the religion. The oddest things turn sacredfurniture

and flower arrangements, organizational charts and stacks of minutes, even dead or dying groups. People

cling to such symbolic objects, not because they love them, but because they love the congregation and thegood they have experienced from its influence, and worry that if surface symbols change too much, they

might lose the reality beneath.


15/17

People do not resist change, per se. People resist loss. Resisting change can be a good thing when it

helps people to hang on to what is truly precious. A congregation with no change-resistance might worshipon a different day and in a different place each week. That makes it difficult to find it or know whether to

support something in constant motion, because stands nowhere.

However sometimes only innovationwhich requires letting go of symbolslets us hold on to what we

truly value. Congregations have begun to realize that comfortable ways no longer produce comfortable

outcomes. Change, no longer a threat, becomes our best hope for avoiding deeper loss. When old modes ofgovernance threaten to strangle what is precious in the congregations life, governance change becomes more

thinkable.

Means for the Sake of the Ends

The most foremost advocate of rethinking how we do church, Lyle Schaller, writing back in the 80s,observed that liberal churches, which are so often ready to tell the world how it should change, especially

resist changes to their own internal workings. Liberals, so this thinking goes, are so open-minded they are

not always quite sure what they believe or where they are headed, and so they come to treat the way we dothings here as if it were the end-all of the church. By contrast, a church with a clear, focused purpose that

say we are about bringing people to Christ will try new worship styles, change its committee structure, or

rebalance its staffwhatever worksbecause the end is more important than the means.

Some congregations may be slower to reform their structures of decision-making, because they care so much

about what Luther called the priesthood of all believers, which makes governance a more complexchallenge. Building a structure that is serious both about congregational participation in decision-making

and enlisting every person in discerning Gods will for the congregation makes governance an important but

complicated business.

No structure guarantees success or promises life free of problems. T.S. Eliot warned against dreaming of

systems so perfect that no one will need to be good. Luckily congregations are full of people who are goodalready. The work of governance change can be simply a matter of enabling the congregation to be as good

as they are.

* Special acknowledgment goes to Dan Hotchkiss who is a church consultant on this subject and writes forthe Alban Institute
