August 24: “Restorative Justice”
Coordinators: Tom Thomas and Larry Menkes
Laura Rush, MSW, Conferencing Program Coordinator for
the Community Service Foundation & Buxmont Academy,
will speak to us about the practice of Restorative Practices.
The restorative practices concept has its roots in "restorative
justice," a new way of looking at criminal justice that
focuses on repairing the harm done to people and
relationships rather than on punishing offenders. This is a
new approach to our first UU principle in the criminal
justice field. Plan to come and be inspired.

August 10: "Free and Responsible"
Speaker: Rev. Daniel S. Schatz
Unitarian Universalists often talk about the free and
responsible search for truth and meaning as being at the
center of our religion. Much of the "responsibility" that
makes this shared search possible takes place in our
religious community, as we find ways to love and nurture
the community which makes this collective journey a
possibility.

July 20: “Hymn Sing”
Coordinators: M. Carol Cotton and John Hook

Our annual hymn sing is a wonderful opportunity to explore our hymnals.  The congregation will help select old favorites as well as less familiar hymns that look like they’d be fun to try.   Somehow in exploring these songs and hymns we learn more about each other and find a spiritual connection as the music flows through us.

Speaker: Rev. Daniel S. Schatz

At no time have people been more aware of our responsibility to the environment than today.  Yet the practice of ecological responsibility is one with an ancient history, closely tied in with the spirituality of many world religions.  How can environmental responsibility become a spiritual path for us?
