What’s The Buzz? Tell Me What’s A Happenin’…..

Rev. Vanessa Southern Connecting with Members

 

Come join us for a new program of spiritual depth and maturity……..

Spirit in Practice is a year long program of Spiritual Maturity and Depth distinct in both goals and structure. The goal is to engage both individually and collectively in a process of spiritual discovery, depth and maturation. The course is a collective effort by the program staff, and encompasses small group ministries, membership and Adult Education.

Each group meets once a month at your preferred time of attendance. All members and friends of UCS are invited to participate. We want all of you to be there.

Moving through ten themes, Spirit in Practice, a Unitarian Universalist Tapestry of Faith curriculum, will connect our 2011-12 church year through worship, small group ministry, spiritual practice, personal and communal reflection, and justice work.
Spirit in Practice (SIP) Circles will be offered four times each month. While these will not be closed groups, you will be asked to covenant with all SIP participants to come with your full self physically, emotionally and spiritually. If you need to miss your typical time slot, you can make this up by joining another group in the same month.
Each SIP Circle will be co-led by a lay-leader and a member of the Program Staff. Participants are expected to attend one session a month.  We also hope you will attend or listen to the podcast of the theme sermon each month (almost always on the first Sunday of the month) and avail yourself of additional reflection and study resources that will be posted on the web as part of the program.

Participating in this year-long disciplined spiritual and educational journey will not only connect you more deeply to the members in your group, but also to a larger congregational conversation about spirituality.  In addition, it will give you the opportunity to answer to the call of our third and fourth Principles: Acceptance of one another and encouragement to spiritual growth in our congregations and the free and responsible search for truth and meaning.

Together, may we grow in Heart, Mind, Spirit and Community.  To sign up and register for your preferred time slot, click here.  We look forward to seeing you.
