SUMMARY:Adult Ed - The Wi$dom Path:  Money\, Spirit & Life
DESCRIPTION:Third Tuesdays – The Wi$dom Path: Money\, Spirit & Life \nThe Many Meanings of Money \nWe can tell our values by looking at our checkbook stubs.  — Gloria Steinem \nThis workshop considers the many ways money influences our choices and relationships at home and in our congregation. While we sometimes view money as a straightforward medium of exchange\, at other times we attach social\, relational\, or political significance to money or designate certain monies for specific purposes. Participants learn specific communication practices for healthy money talk and reflect how these practices might contribute positively to family and congregational life.

SUMMARY:Adult Ed - Hindsight\, Humor & Hope: Who\, Me\, An elder?
DESCRIPTION:Second Tuesdays – Hindsight\, Humor & Hope: Who\, Me\, An elder? \nElderhood in the twenty-first century brings a golden gift of time that earlier generations may not have received. It offers moments to rethink and revalue one’s expertise and interests. Increased self-understanding makes it possible to expand one’s ability to create something new or build a new way of being\, even while dealing with physical and mental challenges\, losses\, and financial concerns that sometimes come with aging. \nThe focus for this workshop is deepening participants’ understanding of the grounding of their lives.  \n*Note  This workshop requires some work to be done ahead of time at home.  If you would like to attend this workshop but have not attended previous workshops please contact Rev. Aija to get the necessary materials.

SUMMARY:Book Groups October Pick
DESCRIPTION:  \n\nJoin us on Sunday\, October 23\, 2016 at 6:30 PM in the Board Room to discuss Gretta Vosper’s book\, With or Without God: Why the Way We Live Is More Important Than What We Believe.  Gretta Vosper\, an a-theist minister in the United Church of Canada\, writes that for the Christian church to survive “it must shift from its time-bound biblical and doctrinal base to a broader base of timeless\, life-enhancing values—a base that would include all peoples of the world who embrace humanitarian and ecologically sound ideals.” Does any of this sound familiar? UUs have already made this shift\, but it is an ongoing process. Growth and change are never easy. Vosper’s clear articulation of the issues and difficulties offers us another perspective on what it means to be spiritually awake.  Muriel and Richard Bronakoski will lead the discussion. Questions: contact richardbronakoski@gmail.com.

SUMMARY:Adult Ed - The Wi$dom Path:  Money\, Spirit & Life
DESCRIPTION:Third Tuesdays – The Wi$dom Path: Money\, Spirit & Life \nThe Meaning of Money In our Lives \nBeginning in childhood and throughout our adult lives\, we receive many messages about money from family members\, friends\, co-workers\, popular culture\, and our faith community. These messages are often conflicting. How money is managed and spent can be a source of confusion and conflict in our close relationships. Understanding one’s personal story and the values that are at the root of one’s relationship with money is an important step in creating a spiritually healthy relationship with money. For this reason\, the central stories in this workshop will be participants’ money autobiographies. \nIn this workshop\, participants will also be introduced to the idea that there are generational differences in how we understand money and finances\, dynamics that might come into play in our personal\, familial\, and congregational interactions around money. After reflecting on their own stories and on the broader context for those stories\, participants will have an opportunity to reflect on how their money habits align with their personal values and the shared values of their Unitarian Universalist faith.

SUMMARY:Adult Ed - Hindsight\, Humor & Hope: Who\, Me\, An elder?
DESCRIPTION:Second Tuesdays – Hindsight\, Humor & Hope: Who\, Me\, An elder? \nThis workshop encourages us not to stay distant from painful memories and/or grudges but rather to begin to see them with fresh eyes and learn from them. Confronting difficult memories in the present with the wisdom and insight of the present helps individuals become spiritually stronger. Instead of dwelling in the past\, we can use the past as a text of lived experience and learn from it. In so doing\, we meaningfully weave the fabric of our lifetime. \nThis workshop offers a variety of practices and activities that support the spiritual work to be done\, including stretching exercises\, guided meditation\, small group discussion\, and creating a visual life map or landscape. \n*Note  This workshop requires some work to be done ahead of time at home.  If you would like to attend this workshop but have not attended previous workshops please contact Rev. Aija to get the necessary materials.

SUMMARY:Adult Ed - Spirit of Life
DESCRIPTION:  \nFourth Tuesdays – Spirit of Life \nSpirit of Life workshops offer participants space\, time\, and community to explore their Unitarian Universalist spirituality. Each focuses on a different aspect of the spiritual life\, framed by the lyrics of Carolyn McDade’s song “Spirit of Life.” Like the song\, the workshops are designed to be welcoming to Unitarian Universalists of many spiritual and theological persuasions. Participants are invited to claim an inclusive definition of spirituality and recognize the spiritual aspects of their lives. Reflecting\, speaking\, and listening are core activities in each workshop. \nThis introductory workshop gets participants in touch with spiritual moments in their lives. Rather than offering opportunities to discuss or debate the existence of something external called “spirit\,” the activities help participants recognize and claim their own internal experiences of wonder\, awe\, and connection.

SUMMARY:Adult Ed - The Wi$dom Path:  Money\, Spirit & Life
DESCRIPTION:Third Tuesdays – The Wi$dom Path: Money\, Spirit & Life \nThe Wi$dom Path: Money\, Spirit\, and Life is a program that gos far beyond “Financial Literacy 101” to include such topics as personal and cultural money stories\, economic justice\, classism\, and the impact of our financial decision making on our ability to live lives of meaning and purpose. Their hope was that such a program would free congregations\, families\, and individuals to speak openly about a subject that is often fraught with unstated presumptions and unacknowledged tensions and would allow the creation of spiritually healthy approaches to money\, generosity\, economic justice\, investment\, and stewardship. \nWhy is it important to talk about money? We will think about the meaning of money and the ways one’s personal money issues can be a factor in living a fulfilling life. We consider the variety and complexity of individual and social dimensions of our relationships with money. Join Rev. Aija as we begin to develop a productive way of being together to explore money issues.

SUMMARY:Book Groups May Pick
DESCRIPTION:Join us  in our Yuuth Room Sunday\, May 22 at 6:30 pm to discuss James McBride’s book\, The Color of Water: A Black Man’s Tribute to His White Mother.  As a young boy\, one of 12 brothers and sisters\, growing up in Brooklyn’s Red Hook projects in the 1960’s\, James asked his mother if he was black or white. She answered\, “You’re a human being\, educate yourself or you’ll be a nobody!”  In this very moving and well written narrative James tells his mother’s story and his own with honesty and humor.  It is an extraordinary story how a rabbi’s daughter\, born in Poland and raised in the South\, moved to Harlem\, married a black man and put all 12 of her children through college. Brian McPherson will lead the discussion.  Questions: Contact Richard Bronakoski at richardbronakoski@gmail.com.

SUMMARY:UUCV Book Group
DESCRIPTION:Join us in our Yuuth Room to discuss Orphan 8 by Kim van Alkemade.  “A stunning debut novel of historical fiction set in the forgotten world of New York City’s Jewish orphanages.”  It is a story of a young woman\, Rachel\, who becomes a nurse and then meets the doctor who performed dangerous medical experiments on her as a child in a Jewish orphanage.  In 1919 medical experimentation on children in orphanages was a common practice. Through the compelling narrative story of her life we come to know Rachel and the choice she must make:  forgiveness or revenge. Kim will be with us for the discussion.  Question: Contact Richard Bronakoski at richardbronakoski@gmail.com

SUMMARY:UUCV Book Group
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Sunday\, March 20\, 2016 at 6:30 PM in our Yuuth Room to discuss Marcus Borg’s book\, Reading the Bible for the First Time Again: Taking the Bible Seriously But Not Literally. Note the word “again” in the title.  Borg wants us to read the bible again\, not as a literal-factual text\, but as a source of meaning and guidance.  Borg argues that it is not necessary to give up our scientific and critical ways of thinking when we read the bible.  Using current biblical scholarship and exceptionally lucid writing\, he reintroduces stories and biblical texts that we thought we knew and shows that the wisdom offered is still relevant today.  Dot Everhart will lead the discussion.  Questions: Contact Richard Bronakoski at richbro@ix.netcom.com.
