Often Torn But Always Healing

Sometimes life sends us careening in a direction we didn’t choose and didn’t want.  How can we find our way back to joy?  Today we’ll look to the gentle, playful example of the Dalai Lama and the historical Buddha, who found ways to root and heal themselves and their communities again.

Shared Plate Recipient for October

Prophets of Hope

A program of Peace United Church of Christ, Prophets of Hope provides a compassionate presence to inmates at Santa Cruz County Jail facilities and their families. Along with regular weekly spiritual services, Prophets of Hope gives timely supplies to those it serves. Our donations will help pay for key items needed by women being released from jail, food items for families, plus special meals and goodie bags for inmates during the holidays. Holiday gifts like books, art supplies, games and sports equipment will go to the juvenile, men’s, and women’s jail facilities.

 

October's Worship Theme:  COURAGE

One of UU’s core spiritual and ethical values, courage fuels collective action, social justice, vulnerability and resilience in the face of systemic oppression.  We honor the courage it takes to live openly, and the joy and power that grows when we gather.  In the hopes and efforts of transforming the world and changing ourselves, courage can be called upon to help us step into our discomfort, even to be clumsy there, and to help us to be loving enough to forgive ourselves and others.
