Fellowship member Joanie Andras, will be our guide into a vast, possibly unexplored territory—ourselves. “This isn’t exactly a talk,” she says. Rather, it will be a journey of discovery into what for you has “heart and meaning.” Her presentation will include guided meditation, contemplation and writing.
Sunday services begin at 11 a.m., but join us early for coffee and conversation. Visitors are always welcome at our liberal, progressive Fellowship. Services also include music and optional opportunities to share your thoughts.
Joanie Andras is the founder and frequent leader of our Saturday morning meditation group. She’s also been teaching mindfulness since 1997, and she’s been studying Buddhist meditation, philosophy, and psychology since 1984. In 2005 she was ordained as a Buddhist nun. Joanie also teaches Buddhist studies at the Fellowship.
If you come Sunday, be prepared for something different. Unitarian Universalism is an unusual religion. For example, we don’t share a creed. Our Fellowship includes Christians, Jews, Buddhists and subscribers to earth-centered traditions. Members also include humanists, agnostics, atheists and people who resist labels. What we do share are commitments to respect the dignity of all people, to care for the planet and to support each other in our free, responsible and unique searches for truth and meaning.
See us Sunday for details. If you’ve been unsatisfied with other religions, you might find a home here.
