Sunday, August 30, 2015: Why Are We Infatuated with Zombies?

This Sunday, our service will be drawn from a sermon by Rev. Thom Belote, minister of the Community Church of Chapel Hill, Unitarian Universalist, Chapel Hill, NC. We will explore troubling aspects of American life using America’s current interest in zombies.

Why are we as a people are so zombie crazy? Everywhere we look we see zombies. Zombies appear in movies, in books, in comic books, and on TV and of course they will be in our streets this Halloween asking for candy.

We will reflect on what this might mean in light of the direction our society is going. Why are zombies so popular? What do they represent to us? Are we being conditioned to respond in a desired way by unseen forces in our society?

Are we all turning into zombies?

Sunday, August 23, 2015: “Cultivating Gratitude”

Host/Presenter: Kacee O’Conner

Based on research from The Greater Good Science Center we will explore gratitude. We will discover as we may already know gratitude does not always come naturally.

Negatives in our lives: disappointments, resentments, and fears sometimes occupy more of our attention than the positives.

Sunday, August 16, 2015: “Building Our Own Theology: Part 3”

Host/Presenter: Chad Minteer

Our Magic Valley Unitarian Universalist Fellowship has been exploring aspects of what a free and responsible search for truth means in our individual lives as we reflect on our own experience of building our own theology. In keeping with our year’s theme of “Telling Our Stories” everyone is invited to come and share a favorite poem (or excerpt from one) that has special meaning.

After opening comments, we will hear from members of our congregation to learn of their favorite poems that have spiritual meaning to them.

Sunday, August 9, 2015: “Building Our Own Theology: Part 2”

Host/Presenter: Don Morishita

Our spiritual paths can take many turns throughout our lives. As Unitarian Universalists we have talked about the importance of building our own theology to meet our spiritual needs. Sunday, we will hear the story from four people and their journeys as they have each built their own theologies.

Please join us this Sunday to learn more about these four individuals’ spiritual paths.
