Rosemary Morrison “Living Wholeheartedly”
Jul 21 @ 10:00 am – 11:00 am

Rosemary will present a TED Talk by Brené Brown.  Brené is a research professor at the University of Houston Graduate College of Social Work.  She studies vulnerability, courage, authenticity and shame.  The questions she answers through this talk are: How do we learn to embrace our vulnerabilities and imperfections so that we can engage in our lives from a place of authenticity and worthiness?  How do we cultivate the courage, compassion, and connection that we need to recognize that we are enough – that we are worth of love, belonging, and joy?

Our congregation was formed and maintained by people from the Silent Generation (those born between 1925 and 1942). Like many congregations across North America we have a significant number of Baby Boomers but few who were born since 1964. Who will carry the flame?

Ben Dolf “Building the Story”
Aug 25 @ 10:00 am – 11:00 am

We continue our efforts to help write a better story for our future. Some senior members and friends of our congregation will talk about the good things in the lives of their parents and grand parents. What made life healthy and satisfying? What traditions can we revive to adjust to a new economy? We will also ask attendants to send us their own stories of life in times and places where people made things, told stories and worked as a community.
