Welcome to Unitarian Universalism!

Upcoming Services
Sunday Oct. 11th, 10 am “Abundance vs. Scarcity: A mindset vs. the reality” Rev. Susan
Rev. Susan will talk about what accounts for different viewpoints about whether we live in abundance or scarcity. Do our mindsets in this regard match the reality we live with? What factors influence our mindset? Does spirituality play a role in how we perceive a life of abundance or scarcity?
Sunday Oct. 18th, 10 am – Poetic Medicine — John Fox
We are excited that poet John Fox will be returning to UUFP. John, the author of Poetic Medicine: The Healing Art of Poem-Making and other writings, is a pioneer in the Poetry Therapy and Expressive Arts fields, and founder of the Institute for Poetic Medicine. John will share how he found the healing power of words and poem-making early in the 1980’s, and developed it into an approach that is now practiced all over the world.
1. There will be a potluck brunch from 11 am to 12 pm following John’s service on Oct. 18th so people should start thinking about what they might bring.
2. John Fox will lead his after service workshop from 12 to 2 pm in the Sanctuary. It is free and open to the public (a good will offering will be taken).
3. Anyone who plans to attend the workshop needs to RSVP to either Barbara at barbee_h51@yahoo.com or to me at susanhodessky@gmail.com.
