Love the Flower and You Its Seed
In Bette Midler’s song “The Rose,” love gets compared to a flooding river, a sharpened razor, and an aching hunger. Then the singer digs deeper. She recognizes that if love is actually to bloom, we must be its seed. Love asks us to take a chance, to risk the journey, to face our fears of all kinds of dying, in order to be fully alive. In what surprising places have you discovered love? What combination of light and darkness allows love to bloom for us Unitarian Universalists? Come share our many stories of love as we launch a month focused on this theme.
El Amor es la Flor y Tú su Semilla
En la canción "La Rosa" de Bette Midler, el amor es comparado a un río desbordante, a una navaja afilada y a un hambre dolorosa. Luego la cantante excava más profundo. Ella reconoce que si de hecho el amor florece, nosotros debemos ser sus semillas. El amor nos pide tomar una oportunidad, a arriesgar la jornada, para hacer frente a nuestros temores de todo tipo de muerte, a fin de estar plenamente vivos. ¿En qué lugares sorprendentes han descubierto el amor? ¿Qué combinación de luz y oscuridad permite que el amor florezca para nosotros los Unitarios Universalistas? Vengan a compartir nuestras muchas historias de amor mientras iniciamos un mes centrado en este tema. |
 
Spiritual Growth & Learning Programs
February 5, 2012
Nursery (birth -3 years)
Our paid staff provide a loving presence and engage children in games, stories and crafts with seasonal and holiday themes.
Pre-Kindergarten-1st Grade Love Surrounds Us Caring for the Earth
The theme of this session is "We can do many things to show love for the earth." When we do act to benefit our planet, we are living the seventh Unitarian Universalist Principle, affirmation of the interdependent web of life.
2nd-5th Grade Faithful Journeys Ask Questions
This session affirms that our faith not only allows but also supports us to question, to seek answers, and to reevaluate our answers by posing new questions. The children will learn about Clyde Tombaugh, the Unitarian Universalist man who discovered Pluto, and the decision in 2006 to change Pluto's status from planet to dwarf planet.
6th-8th Grade Heeding the Call: Qualities of a JusticeMaker Heeding the Call: Qualities of a Justicemaker
Youth are encouraged to view themselves as agents of change in the world as they develop qualities crucial to justice work. They reflect on their own lives while making connections to the lives lived by others, building self-awareness while growing as leaders.
9th-12th Grade A Chorus of Faiths It Matters What We Believe
This workshop provides an opportunity to think about the practices and beliefs of other faith traditions and the Unitarian Universalist commitment to antiracism, anti-oppression and multiculturalism.
