A Long Handled Spoon for the Welcome Table |
| Rev. Margaret A. Beckman: “Sharing the table, is fundamental to our culture. It is also deeply embedded in most religious traditions – whether the Buddhist Tea Ceremony or the Christian Communion or the Jewish Passover Meal or the Muslim breaking of the Ramadan fast. Sharing the meal is an essential part of who we are and how we express our affection for each other. Now more than ever it is important that we expand our Welcome Table. There are powerful forces and people in our nation who are trying to figure out how to keep a great many people from being included at the table; the table they think they now control. We cannot, we must not, let this happen.” | |

“How Shall We Be Together?” with Rev. Edith Love |
|
There are things happening in the wider world that may have some of us feeling sad, angry, confused, scared, or worried. At the same time, there may be some among us who are holding joy or happiness, celebrating positive events in our personal lives. It is okay to feel whatever you feel, feelings are information. Acceptance is key. Whatever you may be feeling, believe what is most important is being self-compassionate, caring for our bodies in the process, and then choosing how we might express our Unitarian Universalist values through our words and actions. In the coming days how shall we know each other better, and seeing how we as a congregation may wish to respond to the call of conscience within ourselves, the congregation, and the larger world. Please join us on Feb. 16th as Reverend Love outlines how and when you can reach her, explores why relationships are so vital to our wellbeing, and shares her thoughts on being particularly thrilled to join the team at UUFBR in this exact time and place. |

“Inclusion Through Imperfection” with Ron Roth Jr. |
|
Explore how true belonging is found not in perfection, but in our willingness to embrace change, discomfort, and growth. Through storytelling, music, and reflection, we’ll examine how our desire to look just can sometimes keep us from being just—and how embracing imperfection can deepen our connections and our faith. Come as you are, bring your whole self, and discover how the cracks in our world and in ourselves are where the light gets in! |
