July 12:  The Quest for Inner Equilibrium
Service Leader: Karin Quinn
"Life is like riding a bicycle, in order to stay balanced we have to keep moving" (Albert Einstein). So often in the face of life's challenges, we exhaust ourselves struggling to maintain an illusion of solidity and control, in a universe where nothing is fixed. The alternative is to embark on a quest for inner equilibrium.

Board Chat

Sunday, July 12, at 11:30 AM
In June, the Board decided that UUCP would no longer operate the UU Early Education Cooperative (UUEEC) preschool as of June 2016. UUCP and the preschool have established transition teams focused on a smooth, effective transition to an independent preschool. If you would like to learn more about the transition plan or about the decision, please join us for the Board Chat.

July 19:  Embracing Our Deepest Fear
Service Leader: Sam Kirkland
In her poem, "Our Deepest Fear," Marianne Williamson writes, "Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure!" There is a balancing act between what we hide and what we reveal and by embracing our power, we can unleash a force for greatness in the world.
