"The Really Big Word is Trust" — led by the Rev. Charles Loflin. In this service Rev. Charles discusses the word, trust. Trust can be dangerous because trust always involves risk. A theology of trust invites us to ask not what do we believe but rather in what or in whom do we place our trust?
"Where Your Heart Is" — led by the Rev. Charles Loflin, sabbatical minister. Our service today invites us into the practice of generosity. Help sustain this congregation with pledges to pay for staff, maintain this beautiful building, and support our amazing programs. TOGETHER WE CAN!
"Have I Got a Story For You," — led by the Rev. Charles Loflin, sabbatical minister. Storytelling is a powerful means of gathering and communicating information, literally helping us make sense of the world. Stories are wondrous things. However, author and lecturer Thomas King reminds us that they are also dangerous, as he warns, "Don't say in the years to come that you would have lived your life differently if only you had heard this story. You've heard it now."
"We Can Do Hard Things"— led by the Rev. Charles Loflin. We can do hard things. We CAN do hard things. WE can do hard things! Join Rev. Charles from UU Faith Action NJ and UUCM to find out how.
"Sustaining the Call" — led by the Rev. Charles Loflin, affiliated community minister. In 2006, UU FaithAction was founded as a collaborative effort of New Jersey UU congregations to confront systemic injustice through Education, Mobilization and Advocacy. The call to faith based activism is energizing but also carries with it the risk of burnout. How do we sustain the call to social justice work without being driven to exhaustion?
“Liberating Education” — led by the Rev. Charles Loflin, affiliated community minister. Our service will flow between two areas of focus: the commitment to liberate education from a partisan agenda, and the commitment of our congregation to offer a liberating education to all ages.
