Amanda Tarling “Unitarian Principles – wisdom to live by”
Feb 9 @ 6:00 pm – 7:00 pm

Our first and most challenging principle is; “The inherent worth and dignity of every person”. Is everyone inherently worthy?  Where is dignity lost? How can we follow our first Principle in difficult times?  The first in a series of seven homilies looking at our Unitarian Principles and Sources and our own spiritual practice.

Anna Isaacs “Different Like Me”
Feb 16 @ 6:00 pm – 7:00 pm

Being different from others is something we all have in common. It can make us feel valued or isolated, truly whole or deeply divided. What does “us being different together” make possible?

Anna Isaacs is nearing a decade as a fervent UU and is rapidly approaching retirement from young adult status. She is a member of both First Unitarian Church of Victoria and the small lay-lead Capital Unitarian Universalist Congregation in downtown Victoria.

Peter Scales “Polio, Science and Health”
Feb 23 @ 6:00 pm – 7:00 pm

Sixty years ago, on this date in 1954, the first mass inoculation of children against polio with the Salk vaccine began in the US. Victoria was among many Canadian cities which were struck by polio epidemics. Polio has been essentially eradicated. For many Unitarians, openness to science is a spiritual practice.
