February 17 - Luminescence celebrates that which makes Unitarian Universalism distinctive.   
In this holiday, we celebrate the light that shines within each of us. We honor our Unitarian Universalist faith for allowing us to pursue spirit with reason.  We express our commitment to the principles that guide us and to actions that transform the world.  And we celebrate the freedom our faith provides toward seeking our own personal truths.  Led by Sadie Jay-Edwards.

March 3 - Singing for Our Lives led by Anna Bush.  During this gathering we will sing our way through most of our song book. 

March 17 - Everything All of the Time -  We are related to all objects and life-forms in so many ways, that the whole realm of existence can be seen as a tangled, chaotic web.  The more we look at the interconnections between all things, the more we can appreciate how an individual life can be without boundaries, and without limits. Led by John Snodgrass.

April 7 - Small and Mighty Congregation - several of us are attending a workshop at UUCJ on April 6th and we will share what we learned and all discuss what might apply to our congregation. Led by Anna Bush.

April 21 - TED TALK & Discussion  We will listen to a short TED TALK and then discuss. Led by Anna Bush.

May 5 - MAY DAY  A look at ancient ritualistic celebrations for welcoming May, and how some of these traditions have been pushed to the margins of society. We'll find some clues about old May games in the story of Robin Hood and the merry gang in Sherwood Forest. Led by John Snodgrass.

Note: We will be moving our chairs out today and there is a Board meeting (open to all) at Broken Wings afterwards.
