September 9th Ingathering: We are Beautiful Threads Interwoven -Rev Pat Haresch Our inextricable connections with each other are precious and complete us, making our congregation and the world better and stronger. Each of us has unique gifts to bring to the greater circle. September 16 We Need Not Think Alike to Love Alike -Rev Pat Haresch Although often misattributed to a Unitarian, John Wesley, the English cleric who founded Methodism and was eventually ordained an Anglican priest, raised the questions “Though we cannot think alike, may we not love alike? May we not be of one heart, though we are not of one opinion? Rev. Pat will explore these questions this morning. September 23 Laughing as a Spiritual Discipline -Rev Pat Haresch From an outsider's perspective, Buddhism may seem very solemn with its focius on suffering, solitude and the giving up of attachments. Rev. Pat considers the questions, why does the Laughing Buddha laugh? September 30 House of Hope -Rev Pat Haresch Have you ever needed to deliver "the elevator speech" on Untarianism? You know, when someone on the first floor asks you, "What do Unitarians believe?" and you try to give a clear and concise response by, let's say, floor 14. Perhaps this morning's message will be of some help, based on the ideas that went into the development of the book of the same name by former Unitarian Universalist Association President, the Rev. John Buerhens and former President of the UU Starr King School of Ministry, the Rev. Dr. Rebecca Parker. October 7 Breaking Bread Together -Rev Pat Haresch We are companions/compaignons on life's journey together here at First U. The Latin roots of the word "companion" come from "com-" for "together with" and "panis" for "bread." At one time, companion meant someone you would break bread with. On this Sunday before Thanksgiving, let us break bread together and reflect on the meaning of bread for us and our families. We are a fully Accessible Facility. We are a Welcoming Congregation, a UU-UNO Blue Ribbon Congregation,
and a Designated Lifespan Learning Congregation. |
