Sunday, December 2: “Ingredients for transformation: Reflections and insights from stories, poems and science”

Posted on by

Presenter: Collete Hoglund

This Sunday, we will explore what it means to change and transform, what prompts us to begin and stay on the journey of transformation and what are some of the key ingredients facilitating change.

Illustrations from the book/movie “Wonder” poetry by Mary Oliver and Anais Nin and the neuroscience of Dr. Joe Dispenza will be used to assist in this exploration of transformation. How transformation applies to us all personally and to our spiritual community will also be addressed.

Please remember our non-perishable food collection for the Idaho Food Pantry continues all this month.

Unitarian-Universalism honors the differing paths we each travel. Our congregations are places where we celebrate, support, and challenge one another as we continue on our spiritual journeys.

Unitarian-Universalists covenant to affirm and promote the inherent worth and dignity of every person; justice, equality and compassion in human relations; and acceptance of one another.

Newcomers of all religious paths or none at all are always welcome. We are handicapped accessible. Please park in the rear of the building. Child care is available.

November 25: “Who would meet us at the table?” Rev. Jenny Peek

Posted on by

Join us this Sunday as Rev. Jenny Peek, visiting Unitarian Universalist minister from Pocatello, shares a post-Thanksgiving message of breaking bread together.

How do we decide when and where to share a meal, and who do we invite? Let’s expand that invitation, in love and with fierce commitment to building a better world, one neighborhood at a time.

November 11, “All My Memories of Love”

Posted on by

Presented by: Rev. Elizabeth Greene

Memory is a little like a ship’s log. It lists all that has been done and experienced; from it, we can make decisions about what need not be repeated and what principles lie under the good that we may hope to repeat in some form. November holds both Veteran’s Day and Transgender Day of Remembrance.

Rev. Greene will reflect on how we look back, and on how looking with love transforms both our memories and our current lives. If you are able, please bring a memento to place on our “Memory Altar” as part of this special service. The item can be a photo, toy, dish, drawing, writing, whatever—just something that evokes an important memory for you. Please don’t forget!

Following the service will be a potluck meal. Thank you in advance for bringing a food item to share; however, if you are unable to do so, no problem. We thank you for bringing yourself!

This Sunday will be our Second Sunday Donation to a local charity. This Sunday’s collection (unless you designate pledge on your check or envelope) will go to Hospice Visions in Twin Falls.
