Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Pottstown

Do You Hear What I Hear? Speaker: Emily Quarles-Mowrer

In her book, Twelve Steps to a Compassionate Life, British author and commentator Karen
Armstrong lays a roadmap for treating all sentient beings with loving kindness. One of her
chapters is titled, “How Should We Speak to One Another?” Join us as we consider ways to keep love at the center, even while having difficult conversations.
Our Third Sunday Potluck follows the service. Please bring something tasty to share.

Appreciation Sunday. Speaker: Mary Ryan

Today we would like to express how grateful we are to all those who have shared time, talent,
gifts, and participation of any sort with UUFP. We are a family and it is wonderful to be together. Think of things you value here and don’t hesitate to express your reflections.

Christian Nationalism: When Politics and Religion Get Too Close. Speaker: Cheryl Meinschein

What is it, how did we get here, and what can we do about it?

Being UU: The shared value of Interdependence ~ Speaker: Linda Kozitzky

This will be the sixth in a series of Sunday Services where we learn and discuss the new UU
Shared Values. This will be an interactive service where we will gain insights from each other and share perspectives on what the value of Interdependence means to an individual UU, to a
UU community and what does it really mean to be in covenant with this value. Interdependence: We honor the interdependent web of all existence. With reverence for the great web of life and with humility, we acknowledge our place in it.

Of Boys and Men ~ Speaker: Cheryl Meinschein

Are we leaving our boys and young men behind? That’s a question being raised in several places these days. Our discussion today will focus on Richard Reeves’ book Of Boys and Men: Why the Modern Male Is Struggling, Why It Matters, and What To Do About It.

We Are All the Stranger ~ Speaker: Emily Quarles-Mowrer

I wasn’t particularly raised with the Bible, but some quotes echo in my head. For example, Hebrews 3:2 says, “Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.” The things we hear in the news about the ways that people who are different are being treated make me think about that verse and about the poem by German Lutheran pastor Martin Niemöller, “First They Came.” Join us as we consider justice and our interdependent community.

Diane is a 3rd degree Initiate of the Assembly of the Sacred Wheel (ASW) and the High
