For the past decade, the term “microaggression” has been featured more and more prominently in the media. The same can be said of “injustice collector.” Join us as we explore our perceptions of hurt and harm. Understanding is key to open hearts and work for a more fair and just society. Special music will be provided by Erik Lindgren, pianist.
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.
Film discussion: Columbus in America
Film discussion: Columbus in America
The Social Justice Team is beginning the church year with events in October to honor Indigenous Peoples’ Day. We will be offering a documentary film entitled COLUMBUS IN AMERICA, available for free on YouTube. It is a very well done film documenting the true history of Christopher Columbus’s voyages to the New World and tracing the far reaching effects of his voyage up until the present day in the lands that would come to be known as America. The film is rather long but can be viewed in increments during the week. We invite anyone interested to watch at their
Justice, Equality, and Peace Vigil
Justice, Equality, and Peace Vigil
We will continue scheduling weekly ½ hour vigils on Saturday mornings from 11:30 to 12:00 noon. In addition, we will be offering training to help us respond to folks with strong opinions. If you are interested in standing with us but would like the training first, please add your name, but put an X in the first column. Sign up for training and/or the vigil by visiting https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1bh50g1GJo86U_kwcs9k95_PaZTPNP7i8CugTK77hd6o/edit#gid=247885754
