October 6, 2024Oct 6 – Finding Resilience Rev. Allen Harden
In September, I spoke about ‘acceptance’ of things we cannot change as a life strategy that can be helpful. But acceptance does not imply rolling over and giving up. We also need to retain our core values and sense of self, and be ready to resist unwanted changes and overcome adversity. Just as “a ship is safe in harbor, but that’s not what ships are for”, each of us must develop ways to restore ourselves when our earlier hopes and plans are thwarted by real exigencies.
We'll be meeting in person AND streaming live on Zoom.

October 20, 2024Oct 20 – We had Martyrs and Kings Rev. Allen Harden
Modern Unitarianism (and Universalism) have many precursors, especially during the early times of Reformation in Europe. Some of the story is positive – Unitarianism became a state-sanctioned religion in Transylvania under King John Sigismund, and Unitarian churches persist there 450 years later. Other parts are not as happy – as liberal religious thinkers like Michael Servetus and Francis David became martyrs to their beliefs. I will visit some of our older history and consider its connection to today’s UU church.
We'll be meeting in person AND streaming live on Zoom.

Orientation for New Participants at Beverly Unitarian Church Sunday, October 20, 12:00 – 1:30 pm
A session aimed at visitors and potential members, but one that is open to all. This is a brief introduction to Unitarian/Universalism through our history and theology, and an introduction to how we live the UU faith here at Beverly Unitarian Church. This session will only touch the surface of the many possible topics, and we will decide as a group whether there is call for further study.SanctuaryOrientation to Unitarian UniversalismOrientation to Unitarian Universalism

October 27, 2024Oct 27 – The Quiet Activism of Grace Pat Hofmann
Our world is broken. But how can we as individuals even hope to repair it? Calling all conflict-averse crusaders, reluctant reformers and almost-hopeless healers. Don’t give up – sign up! Activism may be simpler and more spiritual than you think…and more powerful than you imagine.
