PROGRAMS FOR
NOVEMBER 2011
Dec. 4.
Naming the Holy
Unitarian Universalists often feel challenged by the "language of reverence" and this includes words such as "sacred" and "holy."Our guest speaker, Rev. Julie Newhall, will help us to consider possible meanings of these words. She will use music and visuals that can take us into new understandings
and possibly a deeper appreciation of the ways in which we experience
the mystery of our world and the universe.
Dec. 11.
Presence
In writings from the three religions of the Book, "presence"is often described by using fantastic images or beautiful poetic language. What is presence? Where and how do we find it? Led by Mary Tiebout.
Dec. 18.
A Story or Two for the Long Winter.
For generations and generations, our ancestors have told stories at this time of year to coax, lure, urge or even trick the light into returning to their part of the world to bring new possibilities and new life. Lynn Sodora will tell a solstice story before the children go to their RE classes, we'll light a menorah,
and a story from a nearby or faraway land will be told by Mary Tiebout.
Thursday, Dec. 22, at 4 p.m.
A Service of Lessons, Carols and Candlelight
Fellowship members and friends in the community are invited to participate in
the traditional service of readings and songs for Christmas. Light refreshments
will be served following the one-hour program.
Dec. 25. A NOTE ABOUT CHRISTMAS DAY: On Christmas Day, we will not hold a service at the Fellowship. If you would like to attend a Christmas Day service, our neighboring churches will gladly welcome you, and if you are looking for a UU service, and the weather is good, a ride to the Morristown Fellowship might be just the thing to do. We will have a service on New Year's Day, and it will be a joy to begin 2012 with Fellowship friends.
