This morning, we are delighted to welcome Kate Archer Kent — News Producer for Red River Radio — as our guest in the pulpit to kick off Celebration of Women Week in Shreveport and Bossier City.

Please join us on Sunday (15 February 2015) at 11:00 AM for “One Light, Many Windows” with the children, youth, and adults of All Souls.

This service is a celebration of our third source — “Wisdom from the world’s religions which inspires us in our ethical and spiritual life.”

We are Unitarian Universalists — raising our children and educating our adults to be Unitarian Universalists — so why focus on world religions in our religious education?

As our third source says, we draw wisdom and sustenance from many of the stories and teachings of different faiths, and we gain a greater understanding of those who share this planet with us when we explore their faith traditions.

Come and learn more about where we find common ground, and where we engage and celebrate the differences.

Please join us on Sunday (8 February 2015) at 11:00 AM for “Seeking the Philosopher’s Stone” by Ron Hagar.

Originating within the book The Emerald Tablet by D. W. Hauck, we will explore a centuries-old path involving both Eastern and Western alchemical traditions which cleanses the pilgrim of impurities to allow their attainment of the Philosopher’s Stone.

Come and learn about the kind of alchemy that turns “the lead of self” into the “the gold of spirit.”

Religious Education classes for Children and Youth are offered during the 11:00 AM service. Children and youth attend the first 15-20 minutes of the service, then are dismissed to their classes.

Please join us on Sunday (11 January 2015) at 11:00 AM for “Your Brain on Peace” by Rev. Susan M. Smith.

“Inner peace and a life of peace are extremely challenging in our 21st century environment where technology stimulates our brains in negative ways and the pace of life keeps our hearts racing. Still, inner peace is the root of world peace.”

We are delighted to welcome back Rev. Susan M. Smith, a member of the Congregational Life Staff of the Southern Region of the Unitarian Universalist Association (holding the portfolio of Stewardship and Administration).
