What do The Holidays mean to you?
For some, they herald family reunions, religious exaltation, good food, and festive outings. For many, this time of year amplifies an existing sense of loneliness, alienation from Christian beliefs and rituals, disenchantment with commercialism, and/ or generalized stress. However you feel, you are invited to a facilitated dialogue with the Healthy Congregation Council on Tuesday, December 3, at 6:30 pm in Forbes Hall. In gratitude for the gathered community of caring, we will hold space for each other to voice our thoughts and feelings, and to listen, with reverence, compassion, and humility, to each other’s deep expressions of self.
We are pleased to announce that Reverend Jeremiah will provide a pastoral frame for the conversation. Treats will be provided, and if you wish you are welcome to share some of your own.
For further information, please contact rightrelations@uusm.org, or speak to any Council member.
Healthy Congregation Council: Vilma Ortiz and Audrey Lyness (co-chairs), Aubrey Sassoon, Linda van Ligten, Cassie Winters
