Connection, Resilience, and Mystery
Ann Sherwood

Creating a literal green sanctuary by connecting with each other and the wildlife around the Meetinghouse can build resilience against climate change and offer opportunities to experience awe and mystery. We will explore how we can deepen our connection to the Earth through Environmental Justice for the living world.

Music: Michael Rosin, Music Director

Ann Sherwood has been a member of UUCMC for nearly 40 years. She is currently the Chair of the Sunday Morning Dialog and champions the Green Sanctuary effort as part of the Social Justice Coalition.

Poetry as a Spiritual Practice
Gay Norton Edelman

Poetry as Spiritual Practice is a gentle hands-on workshop. After a brief introduction, we’ll read a number poems together, pausing after each to write a poem or other response of our own. Participants will have an opportunity share their work and ask questions of the workshop leader. We’ll wrap up with a few suggestions for how folks can continue the practice on their own.

Gay Norton Edelman is a writing coach and author of Just This, a book of haiku poetry, which she also illustrated. As a journalist, she specialized in psychology, spirituality and relationships, and now delights in offering writing workshops for folks exploring their inner and outer lives.

September Theme: BEGINNINGS

You don’t have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.

Martin Luther King Jr.

There is nothing more pathetic than caution, when headlong might save a life, even, possibly, your own.

Mary Oliver

Another world is not only possible, she’s on her way. Maybe many of us won’t be here to greet her, but on a quiet day, if I listen very carefully, I can hear her breathing.

Arundhati Roy

Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born.

Anais Nin

There is something deep in us that conspires with what wants to remain within safe boundaries and stay the same.

John O’Donohue

One can waste years this way, systematically postponing precisely the things one cares about the most.

Oliver Burkeman

It is never too late to be what you might have been.

Adelaide Anne Procter

All endings are also beginnings. We just don’t know it at the time.

Mitch Albom

The first step towards getting somewhere is to decide you’re not going to stay where you are.

John Pierpont “J.P.” Morgan

Let every moment be a reminder that you are more than the sum of your mistakes. A sunrise is still beautiful no matter how bad a day is. It’s allowed to start over. And so are you.
