“Oz, the Great and Powerful” – Rev. Sarah Person preaching
“Oz, the Great and Powerful” – Rev. Sarah Person preaching
Who was, or is, your fictional hero? Our current blockbuster movie pre-occupation with comic book characters features these icons laden with flaws. In fact, throughout human history we have humanized our mythic archetypes with great and often tragic imperfections. And yet, they are still our heroes. Special music will be provided by Owen Kidd.

Just This Sangha
Just This Sangha
Just This Sangha meets virtually (via Zoom) nearly every Friday evening from 6:00 to 7:30 for silent meditation and sharing of our practice experience. From a Buddhist, particularly Zen, perspective, we focus on bringing practice to daily life; exploring letting go of our usual habitual reactivity and opening to our selves and others as we actually are. Not a drop-in group, we do welcome potentially new members to join us for a few sessions to see if the group is a good fit. Contact Tom Tanguay at thisjustthis@gmail.com for more information.

“From Stranger to Guest: the Spiritual Truth of Living with Loss” – Rev. Sarah Person preaching
“From Stranger to Guest: the Spiritual Truth of Living with Loss” – Rev. Sarah Person preaching
There is a poem by Rumi entitled “The Guest House” in which he compares being human with having to welcome unexpected visitors every morning – be they joys or rage or sorrows. At first read, the philosophy seems impossible. Age and experience allow us to tell a different story. Special music will be provided by members of the Chalice Choir.

Body of Memory
Body of Memory
Rev. Sarah Person preaching Rabbi Edwin Friedman used to advise clergy that, when we encountered another person in the course of our calling, we were talking with not just them, but with the generations before them. It is also true that our bodies retain the genetic and emotional imprints, not only of our own lives, but also the lives of our forebears. It is an important reminder for our relationships with others, and with ourselves.
