*******************************************************************************
From the Reproductive Justice Task Force The Texas Legislature is in full swing. Bills restoring the Medicaid funds for women's health have been introduced and are in committee. Bills have been introduced and are being debated that:
require abortion facilities meet ambulatory surgical center requirements (extremely expensive, would force most to close) require public school health curriculum to include info on contraception and prevention of STD as well as abstinence no entity or individual that performs abortions or an affiliate of such may provide human sexuality or family planning instruction in public schools and MORE!
The Taste of Horizon table will have a legislative update list and sample letters.

FUTURE SUNDAYS A wise man once wrote: “Small miracles occur at church every Sunday, and do not depend on the sermon.” Horizon encourages you to attend weekly worship here within your community, on Sundays at 10:30AM.
April 7 “Sacrifice Revisited” - Lyssa Jenkens, Intern Minister - Sacrifice
is not a word I hear very often in Unitarian Universalist gatherings. And, truly, it made me uncomfortable when I heard this was the topic for April. Even after I expunged the images of lambs and goats, the word still evoked a worrisome feeling. I have seen too many lives sacrificed on the alters of prejudice, propriety and power. No thank you! But, I was wrong. Sacrifice is not inherently good or bad. It is simply fundamental to all aspects of life, physical and spiritual. What happens in nature without some kind of sacrifice? What do we value in our lives that did not come with some measure of sacrifice? Join me as we revisit this word, this ancient concept, and consider its place in our lives today.
April 14 “What are You Willing to Die for?” - Rev. Dennis Hamilton - Sacrifice is not a word I hear very often in Unitarian Universalist gatherings. And, truly, it made me uncomfortable when I heard this was the topic for April. Even after I expunged the images of lambs and goats, the word still evoked a worrisome feeling. I have seen too many lives sacrificed on the alters of prejudice, propriety and power. No thank you! But, I was wrong. Sacrifice is not inherently good or bad.

April 14 Horizon Youth Service - Always a surprise.
Always fresh. Our youth present their annual
service with intelligence, with and humor. Not to be missed.
April 28 “What’s the Right Thing to Do?” - Rev. Dennis Hamilton - A.C. Noble bought this sermon at FIASCO, and he wants me to sort out the Middle East, specifically Syria. “No problem,” I said. (Actually I said, “Are you crazy?”) Well it is called “Stump the Minister” and this year I may have met my match. What IS the right thing to do in the Middle East? Do we attack Syria? Iran? Do we do nothing? Aid and abet? And, ahem, what about North Korea while we are at it.

Share the Plate for Sunday 21 April 2013 Horizon has a collection for non-profit organizations once a month during our worship service. This month's collection plate is for Texas Land Conservancy.
Over the last thirty years, the members of the Texas Land Conservancy have been able to conserve 85,000 acres of land all over Texas, through 109 conservation projects spanning diverse landscapes: from chalk mountains to pineywoods, salt flats to high deserts. Our Mission The mission of Texas Land Conservancy is to conserve natural areas in Texas and to protect the physical and ecological integrity of their wildlife habitat, native plant communities, and scenic landscapes for the benefit of present and future generations. Our Goals
To reduce the negative effects of land fragmentation and poorly planned development by protecting critical lands through ownership or permanent conservation easements. To maintain a substantial and diverse inventory of protected lands that reflect the biological diversity and significance of Texas' natural heritage. To responsibly steward our conservation easements and land holdings through monitoring, land management, and enforcement of restrictions. To restore and enhance native habitats on lands under TLC protection. To work with other organizations and individuals as appropriate to conserve and protect additional areas not protected by TLC. To educate the public about Texas' natural areas and provide opportunities for the public to enjoy TLC's protected properties. To establish and uphold a visible and respected presence in the state and to accomplish the broad goals of land conservation in Texas. To build and grow a substantial base of members, funding support, corporate and individual donors and partners. To obtain and manage funds to carry out TLC's mission in a fiscally responsible manner. To build and increase TLC's internal capacity to support its programs, including a professional staff, a strong and diverse Board of Directors, and committed volunteers.
1) All undesignated cash (not in envelope with instructions) will go to Share the Plate. 2) Checks MUST be designated Share-The-Plate or STP to be counted toward the donations for that day. 3) Undesignated checks without instructions are assumed to be donations to the church or to fulfill pledges. 4) This is our Horizon's primary source of funds for outreach into the world.

New Volunteer Opportunity Metrocrest Family Night! Metrocrest had such an over-whelming request for family opportunities to volunteer, we have created a Family Volunteer Night each month! Here are details:
the
Date: First Thursday of each month Age: Each month we will focus on a different age group so we can plan an appropriate activity. If you have children that do not fall into that age category in your family they may volunteer, but may need extra assistance. For April and May, we will focus on 9-12 year olds. During the summer, when younger children can stay up later, we will have opportunities for the younger age group. Time: Will be in the evening and will be determined by age group. Younger groups will likely have earlier times and shorter shifts. Location: Unless otherwise noted, it will be held at the Metrocrest office at 13801 Hutton Drive, Suite 150, Farmers Branch, TX 75234 Activity: Each month the activity will vary based on age and season. Items required: Each participant will be ask to bring something related to the activity and something for the pantry. It is important that every participant brings the required items. Without those items we not be able to do the activity. Parent Information: One parent is required for every two children. The parent needs to be engaged in the activity and instruct their own child. Metrocrest volunteers will oversee the activity and instruct children, but it will be the parents’ responsibility to instruct their own child. Group Information: This opportunity is geared towards families, but groups will be allowed under special circumstances. Please email nnewkham@metrocrestsocialservices.org for more information.
April Information Date: April 4th Age: 9-12 year olds Time: 7pm – 8:30pm Location: Metrocrest office at 13801 Hutton Drive, Suite 150, Farmers Branch, TX 75234 Activity: We will be stocking the food shelves and bagging additional food for families Items required: This month, each participant will need to bring a box of gallon size Ziploc bags and a cleaning item for the food pantry. Examples of cleaning items include: Dawn, laundry detergent, comet, scrub pads, etc. To sign up, please email Nicole Newkham at nnewkham@metrocrestsocialservices.org and please include the following information: Parent’s Name * Phone Number * Email address * Total number in family that will be attending. Thank you for your support this holiday season! In November and December, Metrocrest distributed over 1,600 boxes of food and gifts to over 1,100 families.
