FUTURE SUNDAYS Horizon encourages you to attend weekly worship here within your community, on Sundays at 10:30AM
October 6, “The Ghost in our Genes” - Rev. Hamilton Just what kind of creature are we? Too often theologians begin with a premise that is based on antiquated scripture. They try to understand human nature through a lens of morality and measure the virtues and vices of Homo sapiens by how obedient, subservient and loyal we are to a patriarchal god.
October 13, “Changing the Dream?” - Lyssa Jenkens The Achuar, an indigenous people of the Amazon, believe their rainforest lands will not be safe until we change the dream of the modern world. They say that our dream has become a nightmare, haunting and threatening all of creation. They say that we are living in a trance. What is the dream of the modern world? Are we haunting all of creation? And, if we are, how can we change the dream to offer hope?
October 20, “Ghostbusters in the Basement” - Rev. Hamilton Do you know the ghosts in your basement? All of us have a past, but are we aware of its influence on our lives? We carry more than our own past. We carry generations of attitudes, values and customs, and often dysfunctional behavior that will persist until we look it in the eye and decide to exorcise it.
October 27, Halloween Service “Skeleton Woman” - Rev. Hamilton The story of Skeleton Woman comes from the Inuit tradition. Clarissa Pinkola Estes made it famous in Women Who Run with the Wolves. When we first meet her she is terrifying, but if we get to know her, we discover where the terror comes from. Everyone has a skeleton in their closet. We ask them to come out today.

A Message from Horizon Intern Minister * Lyssa Jenkens * internminister@horizonuu.org
I love by-laws. And governance. And strategic planning. And organizational change. I don’t know too many ministers who put these items at the top of their list of things to love, but there you are. I also love fund-raising. But, why? What is there to love about any of this? First, there is a huge qualifier to these statements. I love these things within the context of Unitarian Universalist institutions because I love this faith. People, this nation, our world all need the healing and liberating message of Unitarian Universalism. Certainly, we do not have the only important message but we hold a piece of the spirit that is unique and utterly essential. Poorly functioning institutions misallocate resources—our time, talent and treasure—towards constant, mundane problem-solving. Effective institutions have systems to manage the mundane but absolutely essential functions, so we can focus more energy on living our values within and beyond the walls of our institution. In other words, we can spend our time fixing coffee makers and scheduling classrooms or we can build systems to manage routine activities so we have the most resources possible to bring more freedom, more justice, more love into the world. Effective institutions demand appropriate infrastructures which are built on by-laws, governance, and strategic planning. But there is no one-size-fits-all. Horizon will need to revisit all of these things during this time of organizational change, this year and in the years to come. Systems that worked beautifully for this church in the past may not offer the best structures to support our hopes and plans for the future. I am delighted to participate in the early stages of this challenging work. More importantly, though, I want to encourage each of you to find the pieces of this puzzle that will engage your interests and talents. You have the opportunity, and the responsibility, to shape the future of one of the strongest congregations in our movement. Two events in October will provide some insights into the organizational changes already underway. The first is a Town Hall meeting on the evening of October 16 where the Rev. Susan Smith will discuss interim ministry, specifically. The second is on Sunday, October 27, when we will discuss organizational change more generally during Adult Religious Education. I will be at both and many more to follow. Join me! This stuff really can be fun. Faithfully, Lyssa

SAVE THE DATE: “Current State of Women’s Health Care in Texas” October 13, 2013
Kelly Hart Senior Director of Government Relations, Planned Parenthood of Greater Texas Will join us for the Potluck and present “Current State of Women’s Healthcare in Texas” Please plan to stay after the service and participate in the discussion! On Sunday, October 13, Kelly Hart, Senior Director of Government Relations for Planned Parenthood of Greater Texas, will join us for the Horizon Potluck and lead a discussion on the “Current State of Women’s Health Care in Texas.” The discussion is presented by the Social Justice Reproductive Task Force. If you’ve been following the political news in Texas over the summer, you are aware that Governor Rick Perry signed House Bill 2, the now infamous “abortion clinic-killing bill,” into law, and many Planned Parenthood clinics have begun to shut their doors. Among other things, the bill bans abortion after 20 weeks, requires licensed abortion clinics to transform into costly-to-build ambulatory surgical centers, and mandates that abortion-preforming doctors have hospital admitting privileges within 30 miles of each facility where abortions are performed. Most facilities will be unable to meet these requirements, leaving thousands of women without health care and reproductive services. Unfortunately, the assault on women’s reproductive rights and health goes beyond House Bill 2. Poor and uninsured Texas women have fewer options for care today, since state lawmakers have slashed spending for family planning by roughly two-thirds over the course of the last year. Planned Parenthood of Greater Texas, which covers the Dallas area, says it has no immediate plans to close clinics—at least not yet. Regardless, the future is looking grim for women’s health services in Texas. Please join us after the October 13 to hear Kelly Hart speak and learn what action you might take to halt this dangerous threat to women’s health and families in general. Brought to you by the Reproductive Justice Task Force Questions? contact Mary Morris at mmorris143@verizon.net

Artist on the Horizon * September 29 - November 3, 2013 * horizonart@horizonuu.org
Helen Minkes When Helen was eight years old, her father took her down to the harbor’s edge for a tutorial in Plein Aire and landscapes. He gave her professional paints on a palette and let her use his good brushes. Helen learned early on to see color and light, texture and form through his artistic eyes. Helen Minkes has studied under accomplished artists in Boston, St. Louis, New Orleans and Houston. Shortly after receiving her MBA degree, she became Chair of the Art Department at St. George’s school in New Orleans; a job that was eventually cut short when Hurricane Katrina’s aftermath set her family in a new direction. “It is precisely the discoveries and self-awareness that came out of that crisis that changed the prism through which I viewed the subjects or intentions of my paintings and photographs.” Still an abstract expressionist, Helen says that her work is at times a “joyful and meaningful dialogue of light and feeling combined with metaphors for transformation on spiritual, physical and emotional levels. Mostly, it is a process through which I explore my deeper search for truth and meaning; and express what words cannot always convey. Painting is a form of meditative practice for me and is essential to my spiritual health, identity and balance. I love to tap into that connection and creative energy that I feel when I am in a gorgeous place or listening to music. When I enter into a dialogue with my canvas and find its voice, I invite that energy to flow through me into my work, and ultimately the viewer.” Helen Minkes joined Horizon in 2011 and she lives in Frisco with her husband Rob, and their kids Alegra and Sam. Helen’s artwork is also on display at Orisons Art in McKinney as well as in solo and group exhibitions. It’s a great pleasure to exhibit Helen’s work. Regular art shows in our sanctuary are a way to reach out to the local community of artists who visually reflect the spirit of our church. We in return, reflect back to the community the spirit of our faith. Horizon receives twenty percent of each sold piece of art. To purchase an artwork, make payment at the church office (be sure to make notation about the piece of art you are buying) and mark the card below the piece of art “SOLD”. Horizon Art Coordinators, Linda Alred, Nikki Henderson and Marianna Seaton are happy to assist you.

Sunday mornings 9:00 – 10:10 am Horizon Library October 6, 2013
Christian Chalice Circle: “Saving Jesus Through the Ages” facilitated by Peggy Gill. Peggy will facilitate the class on “Kidnapped by the Christian Right, Discarded by the Secular Left, Jesus needs saving.”
October 13, 2013
John Wesley’s Personal Life and Hymns by Charles Wesley facilitated by Gordon Roe. John Wesley led the Evangelical Revival in 18th century England. One historian said “Wesley changes the face of England.” I think it’s more accurate to say: changed the heart of England.” In the midst if the Industrial Revolution he spent 50 years riding his horse, preaching wherever he could get a few people together, and organizing class meetings. In the meantime James Oglethorpe was organizing the colony in Georgia to get some debtors out of prison, and William Wilberforce was working to abolish slavery in England. Wesley’s movement provided some impetus for these efforts.
October 20, 2013
Forum facilitated by John Myers: a class discussion on “Returning”, the October Horizon UU theme. The Chalice Circle model for interactive learning will continue.
October 27, 2013
Change in the Air facilitated by Lyssa Jenkens. One scholar wrote that organizational change requires 300 people to have a conversion experience that will take them all to the same place. Clearly, he does not know much about Unitarian Universalist! With so much change afoot at Horizon, we will take time to discuss received wisdom about personal and institutional change, with time to reflect on our own experiences and expectations.
