Our Theme for January: Possibility
Happy New Year 2015!
Ofallourtopicsthisyear,possibilityisarguablymostcentraltoourfaith.It
hasdistinguishedUnitarianUniversalistsfromthestart.Whereasothers
sawdepravityandsinatthecoreofhumanidentity,wesawpotential–
sometimeswithhardlyanyboundaries.Whenmanywerepreachingthat
thisworldwasfallenandweshouldlookinsteadtothehopeofanafterlife,
wefoundourselvesfallinginlovewiththepossibilityofheavenonearth.
Theologically,youmightsaythatwewerethepeoplethatbelievedthat
Godhadn’tgivenuponanyofusandsoweshouldn’tgiveuponlife.Ioften
liketothinkofusasthereligionof“Whynot?!”Butwhataboutus
personally?Howopenhaveyoubeento“Whynot?”
How’syourfaithinpossibilitydoing?Thesearethequestionsour
discussionthemeisaskingthismonth.Consideringpossibilitycanhelpus
thinkofthings,people,andopportunities,onwhichwemightotherwise
haveclosedthedoor,automatically.Suchas,“Iwillneverseeeyetoeye
withmysister.”“Icouldn'tpossiblyleavethisjobtostartmyown
business.”“Iwillneverhaveclosefriendslike...”“Iwillneverreallymakea
difference,sowhybother?”“UU’swillalwaysbeasmallselectfaith,why
evenconsiderthatwecouldchangetheworld?"
Wetellourselvessomanysmallthingsaboutwhoweareandwhatwe

BREAKFAST FORUM
January 4
January Worship Theme: Possibility
Rev. Don Garrett, Facilitator
There will be a brief presentation, followed by a
small-group discussion format and a reuniting later
to share what we’ve learned on the topic of
“Possibility.” Join in this adventure in speaking,
listening, thinking, reflecting and sharing together in
a new way; another way to live our values of
compassion, nurture, and justice in our beloved
community.

The Biology of Memory
Frank Stone, Presenter
As unreliable as it often is, memory is what makes
us who we are and it is what enables us to navigate
the world without continuously having to start from
scratch. Let’s look at what we know and be
surprised at how far we have gotten and be
amazed at how much more we need to learn.
January 18
Sacrifice and Bliss
Dan Hazleton, Facilitator
In his fourth interview with Bill Moyers in the
acclaimed PBS series “Joseph Campbell and The
Power of Myth” Campbell discusses the role of
sacrifice in myth, which symbolizes the necessity of
rebirth. He stresses the need for every one of us to
find our sacred place in the midst of today’s fastpaced technological world. – DVD
January 25
Deism: The Religion of Tom Paine
Victor Madeson, Presenter
