Please join us on Sunday (3 January 2021) at 9:30 AM for our adult religious education class (please note that we are changing back to our regular time for this class).
What is Sikhism? — We begin the New Year with this unit exploring our third source (“Wisdom of the world’s religions which inspires us in our ethical and spiritual life”).
We’ll begin with Sikhism.
There are more Sikhs in the USA than Unitarian Universalists but what do we know of this tradition that originated in 15th century India?

Please join us on Sunday (27 December 2020) at 11:00 AM for “A Little Wisdom Along the Way” by Rev. Barbara Jarrell with Eric First, Kathy Osuch, Bennett Upton, Diana Teeters, and Susan Caldwell.
As we enter the New Year, we will hear bits of wisdom that have sustained some of our members as well as some wisdom from one of the best sources around — children’s literature.
Our family religious education Zoom class is taking a holiday break as well, but watch this space and other communication on Facebook and Slack from All Souls for news on the winter holiday edition of the kids play day on Zoom.
The tentative date for our next kids play date is Saturday (2 January 2021) time TBA.
Regular family religious education sessions will resume after the first of the year on Sundays at 1:00 PM unless we find a time that works better for more people.
Again, watch this space and all other online places for religious education updates for any upcoming changes.
We are taking a bit of a break from structed class and curriculum for the next two weeks but not a break from our time with each other.
In order not to go two whole weeks without visiting each other and seeing each other’s faces, we will get together during the holiday weekend Sundays at 9:30 AM (a slightly later time for check-in only and of whatever free-form discussion might evolve in the time we have).
Even if you’re not one of the regular class participants, you are more than welcome to join us and become a part of this kind, funny, supportive and positively brilliant group.
Think of it as a virtual coffee hour before church or a youth group for adults — join us at the link provided above.
