THE ART COMMITTEE INVITES YOU TO ATTEND AN ARTIST RECEPTION Sunday, September 26 1 to 3 pm Keith Artz will be showing brightly colored still-life watercolors, featuring cut crystal, flowers, fruit, marbles, and Ukrainian Easter eggs. Keith infuses his “optical treasures” with vibrant color and close attention to the play of light and shadow. Hannah Voss's show, “Terra Infirma,” features something new for our galleries: wall pieces made from vitreous enamel, an ancient technique of fusing glass and metal together. Hannah loves the color, brilliance, and transparency of the enamel and the expressive quality of the wire that she also uses in her work. Refreshments will be served at the reception. A portion of the sale of each art work benefits the church. Everyone is welcome. Start: 1:00 pm
End: 2:30 pm

BUILDING COMMUNITY RESILIENCE Do the complexities of climate change issues promote feelings of inadequacy? Does peak oil produce images of returning to a more primitive existence? Through readings and group discussions, participants in this class will learn about the interaction between Peak Oil and Climate Change and then envision a resilient community approach to resource depletion, financial downsizing and climate instability. Using The Transition Handbook by Rob Hopkins as a resource, class members will combine their own thoughts and experiences with information from reading to explore discussion questions with a trained facilitator. Prior to class, participants must purchase the book The Transition Hand Book at the UUC Bookstore. If purchase of the book is problematic please consult with the facilitator about a scholarship or book loan. Sessions: 6 Wednesdays Dates: September 29, October 6, 13, 20,27 and November 3 | ||

It is a religious orientation to life that encompasses three spheres of human experience: an interpretive sphere of human experience, which describes our responses to the Big Questions about our place in the cosmos; a moral sphere of human experience which describes how we interact with our earthly companions; and a spiritual sphere of human experience which describes our inward personal responses to existence. Religious naturalism has deep roots in the Unitarian | ||
