An Ending Makes New Beginnings!
We will celebrate the ending of Rev. Steve’s ministry for his retirement. And we

Minister’s Musings
“Don’t stop, thinking about tomorrow,
Don’t stop, it’ll soon be here,
It’ll be better than before,
Yesterday’s gone, yesterday’s gone!
Ooo… Don’t you look back!”
How many of us can remember the sounds of Fleetwood Mac at the Inaugural Ball of a new President in 1993? The
joyous anticipation of change was palpable in the crowds and across the nation. And people were open to all kinds
of dynamic discoveries.
Our congregation is now itself challenged to explore new avenues and make visionary decisions for its future. This
congregation has both survived and thrived with the ministry of many ministers in its illustrious existence. Now is
the opportunity for both in-depth reflection and exciting forward thinking. Our Mission venture these last years
has created a unique culture of renewal and expansion. I leave you with all my best thoughts that you can capitalize
on it and integrate it into the vision of a new minister.
I, too, have an exciting journey before me. I have served others and devoted myself to the wellbeing of my
congregations all these years. And now I look forward to replenishing myself and devoting time to my family.
When the time is right, I will seek out new experiences in creating changes in new arenas of my life. Actually, I
look forward to “re-inventing myself”! As I wrote for the Erie Times-News last month, “I will be leaving Erie, but Erie
will never leave me.” You all have helped make these the ten most fulfilling years of my entire ministry.
Departure has given me deep feelings after almost ten years of mutual ministry. My transition in September, 2005,
from a mainline Christian tradition to UUCE required a steep learning curve. I am finding that leaving UUCE
and 34 years of ordained professional ministry is no less arduous. In a sustained relationship as we have had, there
are many emotions of grief, and of celebration, and of mutual good wishes. Personal friendships will be continuously honored. However, my professional ministerial and professional responsibilities will end on January 19.
There is a tradition of non-involvement by former ministers usually for two years and thereafter only with permission by any successor. This is to afford the next minister unencumbered investment in all aspects of our congregational life without interference or influence from a previous minister.
My gratitude and grateful thanksgiving are extended to all the people of our congregation both past and present. I
know I would not still be here without the direct and sustained support of our congregational secretaries, Christine
Koehle and Joanne Davis. I have never had such a creative and unstinting co-worker and friend as Joanne! Each
President and all the Board members over the years have supported my progress in ministry in so many wonderful
ways. I thank those DREs that have served with me: Liz Augustine, Ginny Sabol, and Willow Hurlburt. I applaud
our Mission Directors, Mary Desmone and Lynne Stephens for their creative guidance for us all. I have also had
the joy to be ministered to by the music of Jackson Froman!
In the course of these years of intensely fulfilling ministry, I have been invited into the lives and family celebrations
and crises of so many within our congregation and beyond. To have seen the likes of Danieh Foltz grow up with all
the other children in our congregation, is the most heartfelt delight of my ministry. There are so many endless
names of people, gone and present, that have made my sojourn here an utter joy. I do apologize for my
shortcomings and stumbles in my time here. And I look forward to hearing about the future fruits of my
conscientious labor here.
With this, I extend my fondest hopes for a wholesome fulfilling future for a Congregation that extends to me and
others such unique understandings of life and religion.
Sharing the Abundance,
Rev. Steve

President’s Ponderings
When Rev. Aschmann retires, everything changes. While we have known this day was coming for quite a while, it
has not really sunk in. This isn’t like other people’s retirements. We won’t run into him at the grocery store. He
won’t be dropping in once in a while to see to how we are doing. Rev. Aschmann’s leaving will be abrupt and final.
The retirement of a minister has to involve a clean break with the congregation. We need time to grieve our loss
and figure out who we are without him. For many of us, this will be difficult because Rev. Aschmann is the only
Unitarian Universalist minister we have ever known or experienced. It will take a while to figure out how much of
our being UUs is tied to his way of doing things and to his views.
We have decided to take care of ourselves during the first few months. We know we can do this because we did it
when Rev. Aschmann took his sabbatical in 2012 and when he was ill in 2013. The Sunday Services Committee is
working hard on the schedule for the next few months. The sermons scheduled so far will be from our members,
our Mission Teams, local guests, and from CERG (Central East Regional Group) staff members. We are searching
for someone to help with functions we can’t do on our own such as funerals, weddings, and personal counseling.
The plan is to hire an interim minister to start at the UUCE over the summer. While we will have someone on site
for Sunday services and pastoral care, it still won’t be like having a settled minister. It will be a time of reflection and
housekeeping. According to the Transitional Ministry Handbook: A guide for congregations and ministers by the
Transitions Office of the Unitarian Universalist Association, “The interim period following the end of one
relationship and preceding the beginning of another offers such an opportunity, providing the breathing space
during which a congregation can review its goals, assess its programs, consider the quality of its life in common, and
“tune up” for a new era.”
We need to hold down the fort until a new settled minister is found. Sunday services are required each Sunday. We
must keep the momentum of the Mission Teams going. We are obliged to get the work of the committees done.
But, we must also look ahead so that we know who we are and what kind of minister and ministry we want. We
need make sure we are healthy and happy in order to attract the best match for us. We can and must do this.
~Heather Steinbrink
Continuity gives us roots; change gives us branches, letting us stretch and grow and reach new heights.
~Pauline R. Kezer
Please mark your calendar and plan to attend Rev. Steve Aschmann’s final Sunday service at the Unitarian
Universalist Congregation of Erie on January 18. We will take the time to say good-bye to him during the service
and at a reception following the service. The Board is currently planning the reception; details will follow.

Marketplace of the Mind—Exploration of Morals
Marketplace of the Mind has set up a group for those who are interested in exploring your morals through an on-line
site setup for that purpose by professional psychologists.
If you are interested, first become oriented to the site by logging into yourmorals.org. There you can read about the
purpose of the studies being conducted and the credentials of the psychologists running the studies.
If you want to participate and have your data become part of the UU Marketplace group data, log into:
http://www.yourmorals.org/?grp=8930e53f440ca31dad65ad1e9578e5d
You will be required to register.
Then, take the following four morals survey quizzes:
What is your moral decision type?
Do you ever feel like you care about some moral values more (or less) compared to most other people?
Group Member Judgments
What are your attitudes toward individuals from different groups?
Evaluations of Self and Society
Answer questions about yourself and make judgments about what people deserve in society.
Moral Foundations Questionnaire
Why do you care about some virtues and issues more than others? This survey gives you a broad overview of your
morals.
At 9 a.m. on January 11, the marketplace group will look at the group results for these quizzes and discuss them.
We can then decide if we want to take further quizzes for later Marketplace sessions.
If you have problems with the technology, call Jim Wise, 796-3115.

Caring News
I hope you are enjoying the Our Neighbor’s Place’s Little Minion in the Olympia Brown Room. We thank Joanne
Davis and her son, Ian, for sharing their little minion box with us. Here’s how it works: Just put your donations in an
envelope, put your name on the envelope, and feed the minion. The food we make and serve for Our Neighbor’s
House costs about $100 a meal. The January dates for the meals are Jan.1, 15, and 29, all on Thursday. Thank you for
any money you are able to contribute.
A special thank you to Judy Morley, Wendy Ormond, Joanne Davis, Annette Krusewicz, Howard and Janet Krack, Brian
Hed, Rev. Steve, Rebecca Schauffele her son, Wes, Deb DiPlacido, Joan August, and Regis. All of you make this
program work.
Millcreek Food Pantry
January 4 is pot luck after the Sunday Service. As you prepare food for pot luck, please remember those less fortunate
than you. Bring something for the food pantry. Recently, the Times-News had an article on the number of people who
need a little extra help from the pantry or food bank. The number was staggering. One third of the population of Erie
uses these facilities. Many of these people have jobs and are considered the working poor. So please consider bringing
something for this worthy cause.
New Year’s Resolutions
Our congregation has many people who can’t attend the Sunday Service for one reason and another. Make a New
Year’s resolution to volunteer to visit, phone, or send a card to one of the people who need a little extra attention. I
have a list if anyone is interested.
Along the same line, we have many congregants who have stopped attending our congregation. We need to contact
them and welcome them back to the fold. Let’s be pro-active!
If you have any questions or suggestions, please give me a call at 454-3015 or an e-mail at regeginny@gmail.com
Thanks. Ginny Sabol.

INSPIRE Team Update:
In honor of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., on January 4, we will reflect on the source: Words and deeds of prophetic women
and men which challenge us to confront powers and structures of evil with justice, compassion and the transforming power of love.
Steve Sullivan and Diana Ziemniak will reflect on the impact that their favorite prophetic women and men have had
on their Unitarian Universalism. Please plan to attend and start the New Year with these reflections.
A big thank you goes to Howard Lincoln and Leigh Kostis, who spoke on their Jewish and Christian traditions in
December. If you missed it, it has been audio and video taped.
“Are My Beliefs Welcome Here?” is a common question that visitors to Unitarian Universalism ask. The UUA
website explores this question. In December, our congregation explored the UUA’s answer to the question for those
raised in Christian and Jewish traditions. This month, we will look at the UUA’s response to those with atheist and
agnostic philosophies.
Agnostics and Atheists Welcome
Those with atheist and agnostic views are welcome in Unitarian Universalism and find a supportive community in our
congregations. Although both groups are often defined by what they do not believe, agnostics and atheists can be at
home in Unitarian Universalism because of what we do believe. Rev. Dr. William F. Schulz, human rights activist and
President-CEO of the Unitarian Universalist (UU) Service Committee, writes of these beliefs we share:
“We believe that human beings are responsible for the future; that history is in our hands, not those of an angry God or inexorable
fate. We believe that life's blessings are available to everyone, not just those who can recite a certain catechism,
And we believe that those blessings are made manifest to us not just in the "miraculous" or extraordinary but in the simple pleasures of
the everyday.”
To explore more resources on this topic go to www.uua.org. Click on the Beliefs and Principles tab and then the tab Are
My Beliefs Welcome? Then click on the link for Atheist and Agnostic People Welcome.
New “FAITH” pamphlets can be found in the Olympia Brown room with the titles:
The Faith of Unitarian Universalist: Pagans, Humanists, Theist, Christian, Buddhist.
You will find them very interesting!
Hospitality News
We have Little Dinners scheduled for January 9, January 30 or 31 and in March. Check out the list on the board in
Olympia Brown Room, and sign up!
We are encouraging the use of aprons in the kitchen. Using them helps prevent contamination of food, and gives you
a place to easily wipe your hands - hah! - . If you have an apron you would like to donate to our UU kitchen, please do.
Social Hour sign-ups are ongoing. Please sign up! Ask an old or new friend, or someone you don't know well, to help
you. It will be interesting!
Any questions or comments, ask Mary Zuck 504 6247.

New Audio-Visual System
The new, state-of-the-art Audio/Visual system was installed in our sanctuary on Dec. 15. Two 80-inch LED flatscreens on front walls of the sanctuary will display whatever is displayed on the screen of a laptop computer (or
equivalent). It's wireless once you've installed "ClickShare" software in your computer! The new A/V system also
has an input jack for connecting to a DVD or Blu-Ray player via HDMI cable.
Special thanks to Doug Russell for his know-how and untold hours spent researching and negotiating with Grisé
for this equipment. Also thanks to Howard Krack and Doug for the money-saving work they did to expedite
installation.
The cost of the final package was $9,700. A $3,000 expense for the new system is in the current UUCE annual
budget. We received $3,500 from an OMD Chalice Lighters' grant. Many thanks to the following congregants
who donated (paid or pledged) a total of $4,000: Joan August, John & Susan Galle-Boyko, Deb Cable, Edie Cultu,
Herta Danowski, Bob & Diane Guthrie, Mary Desmone, Brian Hed, Janet & Howard Krack, Mary & Howard
Lincoln, Irene Morley, Dick & Judy Morley, Dixie Morrow, Al & Peggy Richardson, Michele Rupp, Tom
Schlaudecker, Heather Steinbrink, Lynne Stephens, and Liz Yount.
The new A/V system will be used in all aspects of the life of the congregation. The text of readings and/or
scanned music not found in our hymnals can be displayed during Sunday Services. A sermon from a distant minister could be played on the TV screens. Committees such as Adult or Children's RE, Social Responsibility, and
Membership can use it for presentations.
The UUCE Board hopes to utilize OMD and UUA resources to help with training leaders, to keep us updated on
current issues, and to participate from Erie in the annual General Assembly. With Ohio-Meadville joining the St.
Lawrence District, Erie is a central location; our new A/V system may attract their leaders to UUCE for various
meetings.
Also, we can market our space for rentals to local agencies and community organizations that want to show videos
or present multi-media messages. We can use it to educate ourselves and the community. The possibilities are
endless!
~Al Richardson
Audio-Visual System Training Planned
There will be sound system training sessions in January, February, and March. If you are interested in learning the
system, please attend a one-hour session in any of the months. Times and dates will be arranged.
