“What We Choose: Ethics for Unitarian Universalists” Class Continues

Please join this ongoing class — “What We Choose: Ethics for Unitarian Universalists” facilitated by Bennett Upton (All Souls Board President).

This class will meet at 12:00 Noon on Saturday 16 May 2020.

Check Slack or email Bennett for the Zoom link information to join this class.

This course from UU authors Amber Beland and Manish Mishra-Marzetti offers an intentional process of engagement with others in examining ethical concepts, dilemmas, and questions to help us clarify and expand our ethical understanding.

Participants examine how they have arrived at ethical positions that they hold dear.

They explore new perspectives, identify areas for further questions and exploration, and perhaps more fully embrace ethical positions they reach through careful discernment.

This program will deepen and expand participants’ knowledge and skills for a process of ethical reflection that is central to living our Unitarian Universalist faith.

Online Adult Religious Education — 12 April 2020

Please join us on Sunday (12 April 2020) at 9:15 AM for our online adult religious education class “Human Rights in the Time of COVID-19 – Part 2” with facilitator Susan Caldwell (we will be meeting online via Zoom using this link).

We all need to stay in our homes to flatten the curve of the spreading COVID-19 (Coronavirus) and yet our activism is needed now more than ever.

We’ll look at updates from the Unitarian Universalist Service Committee, Amnesty International, the Poor People’s Campaign, and the Industrial Areas Foundation for ways to stay engaged even as we stay home.

And we’ll check in to see how everyone is doing this week.

Please note this is a new link for the adult religious education class.

Because of security concerns, Zoom is now requiring a meeting ID and password for meetings.  If you are a regular (or even semi-regular) class participant, please use this link to join the adult religious education class.
