Sunday Service ROOTS OF UNITARIAN UNIVERSALISM - Dr. Becker Unitarian Universalism did not spring up suddenly in modern times, but has its deepest roots in the period of the first centuries of the common era. Nurtured through twenty centuries of religious debate and controversy, the faith we inherit today is rich in both abiding beliefs and continuing change. You, as a Unitarian Universalist, are part of a movement that has been less defined by specific beliefs and more by a specific position and process in the spectrum of religious options. .

Imbolc Celebration Join us at the church firepit (weather permitting) for a celebration of the pagan holiday Imbolc. In Celtic and northern European traditions,Imbolc is a time when the Goddess is large with her pregnancy, preparing to give birth again to the god and bring Spring back to the world. It is the time traditionally associated with the goddess Brigid. Brigid is the patron goddess of blacksmiths, poets, singers and at this time of year she offers us her fires of creativity. As such, we ask that anyone attending the ritual should come dressed in colors of fire, and wear clothing that will enable you to move about outside. Also, please bring a candle and a potluck dish to share. The ritual and subsequent eating/partying should last a couple of hours. All are welcome. In case of inclement weather, the ritual will be held in the Sanctuary of the church. Rain or shine, we'll be there.	Sat, Feb. 2, 2002	7:00 pm		David Doersch and Elizabeth Wiley

Sunday Service QUANTUM THEOLOGY Diarmid O'Murchu's book of the same name is a departure point for an exploration of some of the religious implications of the new physics. "WHAT?" you say! Fear Not!!

Consider what insights from another discipline can illumine your life and faith. The Choir will sing.	Sun, Feb. 24, 2002	11:00 am	Sanctuary
