I love the term “Spiritual Practice” because it is a great reminder that reaching our spiritual goals takes effort and hard work, its not easy for anyone. Zen Buddhist Master and UU Minister Rev. James Ishamel Ford has claimed that there are three essential components to creating an authentic spiritual practice. Come learn what they are and give your spiritual life a little boost.
Caring for each other is something we can all do, but not everyone is a natural. So come learn a few essential tricks of the trade from our Ministers and lay Pastoral Care team.
As we learned from the 2015 smash hit childrens movie Inside Out, the stories we hold on to are essential to who we are. Come explore the stories you cherish (and some you may be ready to move on from) in this fun and meaningful intergenerational service.
Rev. Jeremy will share a message about the experience of getting his DNA results from 23 and me. What will this European and Jewish mutt learn about his ancestors and how will it change the way he thinks of himself and others?
We are blessed to live in a community awash in religious diversity. Come celebrate all that we can learn from each other as we begin a week of UN Interfaith Harmony celebrations, culminating with Harmony Day at Niles Discovery Church on Saturday, February 4 from 1-3 PM.
I was born with the biological parts that assigned me to the male gender, but I was taught from birth (at times brutually) what it means to be a man. It has taken me years to unlearn much of what culture and society wanted me to believe being a man meant, so I could live as the human being I felt called to be, and this morning I hope to share some of those lessons with you.
Many people through history (although certainly not enough) have marveled at Mary’s grace under pressure. This Sunday we too will draw inspiration from the story of this young woman that gave birth to God. Come explore all that is yearning to be born in you, and celebrate another Sunday with your Mission peak UU family!
Today were were pleased to hear from both Reverend Emeritus Chris Shriner and Rev. Jeremy on the topic of our hidden selves.
