We have fifteen years before the results of climate change will alter everything about our lives. The IPCC delivered this horrifying news a few weeks ago. Where do we go from here? Can we still make a difference. Is it worth even trying? Join us for this in depth look at walking with grief while still making a difference.
It is sometimes good for us to be filled with laughter and as we move into the dark time of the year I find that ‘UU Humour’ which is usually self deprecatory is useful to counteract the gloom. The service will not be politically correct, definitely not pious and as frivolous as I can make it, so put away those black stockings and have fun.
Most of us bring our memories of earlier faith traditions, and memories of celebrations both Unitarian and otherwise. How do those memories inform us in our daily lives and in the portion of our lives which we might call “UU time”?
Karen Christie, of the Membership Committee, is delighted to announce that our Capital UU Congregation has four new members. They are Jurgen Harding, Stefa Katamay, Diana Clift, and Catherine Cardinal. Please consider acknowledging their decisions in this regard. As a congregation, we will all have an opportunity to welcome them formally to Capital at a New Members Ceremony, which will take place during our regular service on December 9. Our own lay chaplain, Amanda Tarling, will do the honours of introducing the new members, through reading a short biography for each person. We will all then participate by reading scripts for our parts. This will bring our number of members to XX. In addition, Capital is fortunate enough to count XX friends of our congregation, for a total of XX active participants.
If you too are considering membership and would like to also participate in this new member ceremony, please be in touch before Dec 1st. Anyone who is interested in becoming a member of Capital, please talk to either Karen or any Board member for information. New Member Ceremonies are held whenever we have new members to celebrate.
Let’s share some memories from our religious backgrounds. What is spiritually meaningful to us now? What engages us about Unitarian Universalism?
Come join us in song and celebration as we welcome the light that is born from darkness! With a passing nod to our Pagan roots, Dana Lynn Seaborn will facilitate a joyful celebration of the season.
When is the last time you “changed your mind”? Your public library invites you to do just that by exploring, self-improving, listening, watching, imagining, and connecting. Find out about GVPL’s exciting “Change your Mind” campaign, and how Serious Coffee has partnered with us to spread the news.
There is a power and connection that music can make with us that is unique. Sometimes when words fail us, music expresses what we seem unable to access in any other way. This morning we will explore the power of musical art form by listening deeply to the resonance and message in several different styles and forms of music. What genres of music move you? How does the listening that music evokes translate into other parts of your life?
