The Adult Religious Education program provides an ongoing core curriculum of classes, forums, discussion groups, and experiential learning opportunities that strengthen UU spiritual and ethical identity, increase understanding of world religions, educate about the environment and other social justice issues, strengthen family life and individual mental and physical health and well being, and train UU leaders for the church and the community.
November Second Sunday Social-Making Music!- All are invited to gather in the Chapel at 10:00am on Sunday, November 13th, for a fun music making event. Mark Bruns and Molly Koebbe, members of the Family Activities Committee, are planning a fun time of instrument making and sing along. The Second Sunday socials are designed to give families from both services a time to come together in community. All are invited – you do not have to have children to come join the fun!
Guest at Your Table, November 20th - During the service on this morning you will receive your Guest at Your Table box. Guest at Your Table supports the work of the Unitarian Universalist Service Committee. The UUSC is an independent human rights organization whose work is guided by our Unitarian Universalist values. The UUSC focuses their attention on protecting human rights and protecting groups in times of disaster and armed conflict.
You can support the UUSC by bringing home a Guest At Your Table box. Place your GAYT box on your table where you share your meals. Every time you have a meal or snack make a monetary contribution to the box. IN this way, you share the blessing and bounty of your meal and home with others around the world. Boxes will be collected on Sunday, January 15th.
