Dear Hedding Family,
10:00 a.m.
There’s a remarkable method for sharing biblical stories with children
called Godly Play. It combines story-telling and wondering questions as well
as offering the children a chance to explore the stories through play and art.
The storyteller creates a sacred setting for sharing the story. A candle is lit
with the words “let us enjoy the light.”

I find myself thinking about enjoying the light this Advent. There have
been Christmas displays in stores since October and we’re in the midst of the
annual battle over whether stores should be open on Thanksgiving Day.
While our culture rushes the season, the Church invites us to spend our time
enjoying the light this Advent. This is our season of waiting. But this is no
baby shower—we’re not just waiting for a baby to be born in Bethlehem,
we’re waiting for Christ to break into the world again. I hope you will join us
for worship throughout Advent as we wait. Come and find a quiet center in
the busy life you lead.
Each Sunday at 10 am, we’ll light another candle. There’s something
about candles, isn’t there? We haven’t needed them since the advent of
electric lighting, but almost all of us have candles. We use them for
celebrations, for romantic dinners, in our spiritual practices, and just to help
us relax. Candlelight softens what we see. It calms and quiets our souls as we
enjoy the light.
This Advent, do something counter-cultural. Instead of rushing
around in the frenzy of the world, take time to light a candle and be in the
presence of Christ. Join us for a Taize service on Tuesday December 9 at 7 PM
to enjoy the light. And of course, our Christmas Eve service on December 24
at 7 and 9 PM which will include singing Silent Night by candlelight.
Come, let us enjoy the light.
Blessings,
Pastor Kim

Outreach Ministry News
Greetings to all Hedding Family,
Turkey day has come and gone and we are almost into Christmas, this year has flown by. Many thanks
to all that contributed to stuffing the turkey. This was a huge help for the food shelf. As Christmas Day
approaches please keep in mind those who have less, and if you feel led to helping in any way for the
Hedding Christmas Day meal, please free to contact Sonya Spaulding at 802-476-5569.
Ema Moreau, the Barre City Police community outreach specialist, is looking for a few volunteers to take
folks who are returning from incarceration to the Department of Motor Vehicles for their Vermont ID card.
The police department will cover all cost. If you are interested, you may call Ema at 802-476-6613. These
are people who need identification cards in order to get employment and housing. Please consider if this is
where God is leading you. Ema told me that no one will be paired with a violent or unstable person.
Winter is a rough time to make ends meet when you have a limited income…please remember to keep
the food shelf in mind when you go grocery shopping. Thank you all for your continued support with our
ministries at church.
Grace and Peace; Rev. Renny

Hedding United Methodist Women – November 10, 2014
(Draft Minutes, subject to approval at next meeting)
The November meeting of the HUMW was held at the church at 6:15. Meeting time has been changed to 6:15 to
give all who would like to attend time to arrive. Those in attendance were Charlene Calcagni-Boisvert, Charlene
Helman, Marie MacDougall, Melanie Magwire, Pastor Kim Kie, Mary Ann Ritchie and Donna Fuller.
Charlene Helman led the discussion of Giving God Your All chapters 8 and 9. It was decided that we would do
chapters 10-12 at our next UMW meeting in January. In place of our December meeting, we will plan on doing
visitations on Dec. 3. More details to follow.
Marie MacDougall gave a brief overview of things that took place at the annual meeting of UMW. She said that
the Mission Trees is the newsletter that is mailed out to all Unit Presidents, Treasurers, District Officers, Conference
Team members, District members and/or contact people, and that anyone who was interested in receiving an email
copy could request it. It was suggested that Donna Fuller email Carla Ganter and give her the email addresses of the
ladies in HUMW so that we could subscribe to it. Donna emailed Carla and received an acknowledgement that our
names had been placed on the email list.
We discussed visitation for November and December. We need to get an updated list of names. Pastor Kim
went over the names with Mary Ann and it looks like we have approximately 25-30 people who are in the local area.
We will try to work in groups of 2 to 3 to visit. Ginny McNamara is working on a trinket to bring to the shut-ins and
HUMW will look into purchasing small poinsettias as well.
Marie mentioned that we are in need of prayer shawls. Anyone who is interested in knitting or crocheting them
can contact Marie for directions or any questions.
Paper products are still needed at the Circle Shelter. Items such as tissues, paper towels, toilet paper are always
in demand. These can be brought to the next meeting or left at Women and Children First.
Charlene Calcagni-Boisvert will send out a donation to Red Bird from the HUMW this week.
Marie M. said that we need to think about how we would like to service HUMW this year. This would include
taking part with pledges, book study and offices. The officers that are primarily needed are President, Treasurer, and
Secretary. Charlene Helman and Marie MacDougall will co-chair the President’s position this year, Charlene
Calcagni-Boisvert will service another year as Treasurer and Donna Fuller another year as Secretary. Charlene
Helman will continue to lead the book study. For next year we are going to order the book Continuous Joy. January
meeting will be our Pledge Service.
Dorothy Neve is still in charge of the card ministry. She sends cards out in celebrations of birthdays, and the
birth of the babies as well as condolences for sympathy cards. The HUMW would like to support this worthy
ministry.
We would like to thank Dr. George & Koch Dental Association for the gift of toothbrushes, and Dr. Crumbaker
for toothbrushes and toothpaste that they supplied for the wash cloth kits. These kits were completed at the end of
our November meeting and will be given to the Haven, as well as a few to be kept on hand for the over flow of
housing at the church. Donna will send out thank you notes to the dentist offices.
The meeting was adjourned at approximately 8:00.

November 2014 Final Trustee Meeting for 2014
(Draft Minutes, subject to approval at next meeting)
Chairperson Scott H. opened meeting with Mary Ann R., Karen Z., Tim H., Jim A., Jon K., Rev. Renny A., Pastor Kim
K., and Martha S. present.
Absent: Ken S.
Hans Aseora presented a summary of Reynolds Trust and other various investments. We mostly have protected the
endowment from Dr. Reynolds with keen investment objectives with Hans' advice. We are taking a responsible rate of
withdrawal to cover mission and capitol improvements, as needed. The United Methodist Foundation requests that we
pay off our loan with Ed Jones at this time. We are recommending to the Church Conference a plan to retire the line
of credit (loan) and proceed with a smaller draw down on earnings - 3 percent - a month of the new principal
amount. Seconded by Tim.
The budget committee for Trustees (Karen, Renny and Jon) will meet again, based on our discussion with Hans and put
together a reasonable recommendation for monthly withdrawals for capitol improvements and missions split. Ideally, this
amount will give us the ability to pay Trustee bills/improvements needed in 2015, as well as the ability of Missions to
support their work in our building.
PA system was discussed by Scott. Ongoing issues and need for fixing/replacing?
Rev. Renny presented a report of ongoing parsonage and church "fixes" that will continue to be worked on into
2015. We did complete our paving project in the parking lot, with a little help even from the City of Barre!
Tim and Mary Ann will conduct our annual Parsonage inspection.
Mary Ann will go to Northfield Savings Bank and open a safety deposit box for our collectibles for the ages.
Easter Seals room usage granted. They may use the church 3 hours a day, 3 days a week but the times may vary by
the week. A good mission for us.
Discussed acquiring a new commercial carpet cleaner and asking our congregation to help defray the cost. More to
follow!
Ongoing discussions about the speakers for the left hand side of the sanctuary. We may move the speakers so they
point more down and give our audience a better listening experience.
The Trustees will continue to discuss a possible Capitol Campaign for work that needs to be done on our steeple, which
will be a huge endeavor. We will be gathering quotes and discuss who may be able to help us launch a campaign of this
size.
Request for room use by Steve Gentile, music lessons and the such. Renny will contact him with our recommendations
for usage.
Martha gave a brief overview of Reynolds Community Development Corporation annual meeting to be held December 9
at 7:30 pm. They did receive their 501 C3 certification, which is great news! Now they are able to apply to grants and
help fund their mission work. They continue to work on by-laws and will be electing a new chairperson at that meeting.
Jim adjourned meeting at 8:45 pm

Good Samaritan Haven
Submitted by Pastor Kim Kie
Hedding has a long-standing collaboration with Good Samaritan Haven, central Vermont’s only homeless
shelter. Once again, Hedding is offering space for emergency overflow shelter this winter on nights the shelter
is full. The overflow is set up in the Boy Scout Room with 14 cots from 9 PM to 7 AM. GSH does all the guest
intake at their 105 North Seminary Street location where guests receive dinner and a shower before coming to
Hedding. At least one volunteer is present overnight to assist guests and monitor the building. If you are
interested in volunteering for an overnight, please contact Tanya or Kelli at Good Samaritan Haven 479-2294.
Our Friday Night Community Supper is the Friday night supper for Good Samaritan Haven. Other nights,
volunteers prepare and serve meals at the shelter. Breakfasts are provided at other local churches—Monday
and Thursday at Good Shepherd, Tuesday and Saturday at Barre Congregational, Wednesday at First
Presbyterian, and Friday at First Church Barre UU. Lunches are served at Enough Ministries on Tuesday and
Thursday and the Salvation Army on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Our community works together to be
sure our neighbors have food to eat and a place to sleep. You are welcome (and encouraged) to help with any
of these meals.
Hedding also provides financial support to Good Samaritan Haven. We pay the milk bill, donate money to
defray the costs of the overflow shelter and donate the space and utilities expense for the overflow space. What
a blessing to be part of this important community ministry!
If you have questions or wish to become more involved in this ministry, please see Pastor Kim or Rev. Renny.

Participating in Life as Servants
Submitted by Phyllis Azotea
Hello Hedding Family. I wanted to share some community news with all. My employer Vermont Creamery
recently earned it’s B Corp certification, joining nearly 1,000 other corporations around the world and
including l7 others here in Vermont. What this means is that these corporations have met standards which
measure a company’s impact on its employees, suppliers, environment and their community. Knowing
that I had a bit of experience with community issues I was approached and asked to lead in the outreach
programs for the community.
In September, the company provided funding to allow me to purchase backpacks and miscellaneous
school supplies. These backpacks were distributed to area children in need.
On Friday, November 14th, the office staff from the creamery, consisting of 8 adults and one
particularly energetic 4 year old volunteered. The company bought, prepared and served the Friday night
supper that evening, in addition to staying for clean up afterwards. The fact that this company came
forward and purchased the supplies was a tremendous boast to our ability to provide. What we saved this
particular evening enables us to save money for future meals. It was a great time, the creamery staff
worked side by side with our regular volunteers of Norwich cadets and the ever faithful few who show up
every Friday evening.
My purpose in sharing this experience with the Church as a whole is that I have hopes that we can
spread the word about the opportunities for service here at Hedding. Perhaps you have co-workers, who
attend other area churches, or perhaps you have a club you regularly attend, weight loss program, gym
etc. where you can let people know how easy and wonderful it is to give back to the community they live
or work in.
It’s very low impact for anyone to volunteer and can be done in several ways.
l. Just showing up individually on any given Friday between 4:30 and 5:30 to participate.
2. Contribute the necessary food items needed to prepare a meal
3. Organize a team to prepare, serve and aid in cleanup
4. All the above!
Let’s spread the word and see where it leads. The challenge is on. For further information, please feel
free to contact myself, Phyllis Azotea or my husband Rev. Renny.

Ladies Intergenerational Breakfast
November 15, 2014
Despite the number of crafts shows and sales in the area 11 ladies gathered for breakfast on November 15. Pastor
Kim dropped by to see everyone and gave the blessing before heading out. During our time of fellowship we enjoyed
a breakfast of fruit salad, homemade muffins, and in particular a new cranberry eggnog muffin. Thank you to all who
contributed!
It was nice to take a moment with the fast approaching holidays to sit and visit with each other. At each table,
friends — old and new — were talking of travel plans, sharing family updates and discussing Thanksgiving
dinners. Our project this breakfast assists in bringing Hedding’s Food Shelf and the need for donations to the church
family. As we crafted we talked of how each of us can make a difference in the lives of others. One way is to bring a
can of soup in for the food shelf such as chicken noodle or chicken and rice. Other items needed – pasta, pasta
sauce, applesauce, peanut butter – small jars, oatmeal packets, tuna fish, just add water pancake mix, and cereal.
Be on the lookout for the opportunity to be a food shelf “angel” or a Christmas “star” and share from
your “heart” this Christmas! Please join us in supporting this vital community service.
Wishing you and your family a joyous Christmas!

From the Nov. 8 edition of the UMCatalyst:
Bishops call United Methodists to prayer in human sexuality
statement
Oklahoma City, Okla.: The Council of Bishops issued a statement concerning human sexuality, addressing their diverse
perspectives and calling the people of The United Methodist Church to be in prayer, both for their leaders and for one
another.
The statement reads:
As bishops of The United Methodist Church, our hearts break because of the divisions that exist within the church. We
have been in constant prayer and conversation and affirm our consecration vow “to guard the faith, to seek the unity and
to exercise the discipline of the whole church.” We recognize that we are one church in a variety of contexts around the
world and that bishops and the church are not of one mind about human sexuality. Despite our differences, we are united
in our commitment to be in ministry for and with all people. We are also united in our resolve to lead the church together
to fulfill its mandate—to make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world. As we do so, we call on all
United Methodists to pray for us and for one another.
The bishops worked together on the statement during several executive sessions during their weeklong meeting in
Oklahoma City.
The statement came near the close of the Council's meeting, which opened on Monday with the bishops reaffirming the
commitments they made when they were consecrated. During the president’s address, Bishop Warner H. Brown, Jr. of
the San Francisco Episcopal Area asked the bishops if they would stand with him to reaffirm their vows as he prayed.
Bishop Brown called for unity within the church and encouraged finding “places where we can agree to work together and
find common ground.”
“Leading a church, such as ours, with a diversity of perspectives means we must let people know we hear them, and that
we are listening both to those voices that are in the majority and those that are in the minority so that all know they’re
heard,” said Bishop Brown.
In November 2013, the Council voted to form a task force which would lead conversations about human sexuality, race
and gender with the goal of coming to a shared theological understanding amid differing perspectives and cultures. The
task force will continue its work.
“The Council of Bishops is charged to lead the church in a time of prayer and discernment. The task force will seek to
work for the council as the conversation continues,” said Bishop Rosemarie Wenner, who chairs the task force. "In a
worldwide church serving in very diverse contexts and composed of faithful Christians who have different opinions, we,
the bishops, are committed to pastoral care for all our people as we continue to find a way forward.”

HUMC STEWARDSHIP/FINANCE MEETING
November 24, 2014
(Draft Minutes, subject to approval at next meeting)
Submitted by Martha Sanborn
Attending: Charlene Helman, Mary Ann Ritchie, Melanie Magwire, Tim Hudson, Pastor Kim Kie and Martha Sanborn
Charlene opened with devotions – Give Thanks!
Reports from Marie MacDougall, treasurer and Kelly DeFelice, financial secretary were reviewed. It is too early to
know the results of our Pledge campaign. Martha will get info from Kelly at the end of next week to put in the budget,
then print the new budget for Kelly to include for the December 1st Church Conference.
All agreed we will send out several different letters to keep the Hedding Church family and friends informed, including
stories and testimonies of how Hedding is changing lives. We discussed four different letters……. one letter to thank
those who have already pledged, another for those who have pledged in the past but we have not heard from yet and
another for those we haven’t heard from for awhile. Mary Ann offered, as Hedding Membership Secretary, to send a
letter to those we can think of that might not even be on our mailing list at this time but have been or have a family
connection. Pledge cards might include gifts for 2014 and/or 2015 to support specific ministries (Friday night suppers,
Food shelf, Rocking Horse, Boy Scouts, TOPS, Good Samaritan Haven or Covenant Hills). Christmas Giving is something
separate, but a Power Point for Christmas Eve Service with our many ministries would be good.
Charlene shared suggestions to help increase Sunday morning Worship attendance and therefore increase
commitment to Christ and to Hedding. Strong churches = strong worship. How can we enhance worship? More
meditative Communion with instrumental music every 3rd week instead of once a month and maybe skits for the
scripture reading.
Pastor Kim closed with prayer.
God’s Kids Do & Say
the Funniest Things!
A Sunday School teacher smiled at her primary class
and said, “All right children, all those who want to go
to heaven, raise your hands.”
Everyone responded except one little boy.
“What’s the matter, Shawn? Don’t you want to go to
heaven?” the teacher asked.
“I can’t, teacher. My Mom said that I had to come
straight home.”

Hedding is operating a food shelf twice a week on
Wednesdays and Thursdays from 3-5 pm and with the
down turn in the economy we have been serving
more and more families. If everyone could bring in
at least one canned food item a week it won't take
long to fill our shelves. Spaghetti sauce, tuna, peanut
butter and canned fruit are some of the things we
need most. So as you shop for yourself, please pick
up an extra can for our food shelf. Remember every
little bit helps.
Thank you and God Bless,
