As we did last year (for the first time), this year, we will again use the Canadian UU source for our monthly themes called “Meaning Making.”
This year’s themes are:
- Agency and Acceptance (October)
- Change and Stability (November)
- Humility and Pride (December)
- Responsibility and Integrity (January)
- Power and Powerlessness (February)
- Expectations and Surprises (March)
- Forgiveness and Repair (April)
- Community and Individuality (May)
And once again, due to popular demand, we will be offering small groups to engage with the material –
- Receive the packet – with questions for reflection and suggested spiritual exercises
- Attend your small group once/month to do a deep check-in and share your experiences and reflections on the material.
Folks who were in groups last year appreciated that these groups were a good way to deepen connection with others in the congregation and to give yourself time to intentionally reflect on things that matter.
We have 4 groups to offer. Choose the time, date, and location that works best for you.
