Sunday, Dec 17: Islam’s Message for Dark Times Speaker: Imam Irshad Osman Music: Guest musician – Natalie Fasheh
Dates: Every Sunday - Oct 8, 15, 29 /November 5, 12, 19, 26/ Dec 3 & 17 & Jan 14 Based on the assumption that everyone is their own theologian, this classic UU adult education program invites us to develop our own personal credos, the fundamental religious beliefs, values and convictions that inform and direct the living of our lives. Join Rev. Pat for eight workshops that explore the developmental tasks required to become a mature religious being. You’ll search for what is true in your life. Through a combination of reflection, group discussion, study, and writing, you’ll examine your own spiritual history and articulate your own credo. How does your life experience inform your faith? Please note – this is not a “drop-in” class. It’s important to attend as regularly as possible, since they build on one another.
Co-facilitated by Jane Lewis and Susanne Maziarz. All are welcome to this improvised singing circle. A creative opportunity for listening, being in the moment, sharing your voice, and laughing! Contact Susanne at music@nuuc.ca for more info.
