2/28 – Toward the One, World Community – Rev. Phil Schulman
Morning service at 10:30: UUs deeply value efforts to promote world community with liberty and justice for all. Is this religious concern or simply political? Religion has so often been the cause of division, oppression and strife. Yet the major traditions have also beckoned humanity to a compassionate awareness of its unity. In what ways does UU faith inform and challenge us to be members of a world community? What does it mean for us practically and personally?

2/14 – Love Makes a Family (Thrive) – Rev. Phil Schulman
Morning service at 10:30: This Valentine's Day we'll celebrate that families come in all shapes and sizes. Come hear why the changing picture of our family systems can be a really wonderful thing.
I would also like to hear any thoughts you want to share or questions you want to raise regarding the changing picture of family life in the 21st century. My title and blurb are intended to present an challenge to the fundamentalist and conservative assumption that diverging from the norm is bad. I would like us to make visible the positive changes that have happened, are happening and can happen. I'd be grateful to any who would care to respond and answer these questions:
What does your family look like? Especially if it's something other than 1 man, 1 woman, & 2.5 kids, I'd love you to educate me about what that has been like for you. What's been good about it? What's been difficult about it? What do you wish everyone would know about the changing picture of families? PLEASE reflect, comment, and most of all do seek to educate me, share your stories, conclusions, questions, concerns. You are welcome to email me or call me to share anything that you would prefer to share privately rather than publicly.
That said, I know that not all aspects of the changes are delightful. I trust that we can present our doubts and concerns respectfully, and engage in compassionate dialogue so that we can all continue to open our minds and hearts and be supported to continue learning and growing spiritually.

2/7 – The Reasons for Reason. The Reasons for God. The Reasons for Church. – Henry Halff

1/24 – Transforming Pain to Power and Peace – Rev. Phil Schulman
Morning Service at 10:30: Often we arrange our world to try to avoid things that trigger our pain. It ends up blocking us from embracing live's deep joy and fulfillment.

When we come home to ourselves, we will find freedom and unleash our creative power.
