January Theme: Balance
Jan 6 – Service – Our Unitarian Roots
Guest Speaker: Arthur Thexton
This will be the first service, in a three-part series, that Arthur will be sharing with us on the history of Unitarian Universalism. ALL are welcome.
Jan 13 – Coffee Talk Discussion – Living With Contradictions
Moderator: Janis Anton
Janis will lead us in a respectful discussion on the topic of contradiction. Come with an open mind and feel free to share your thoughts, ideas, and perspectives on the subject.
Jan 20 – Service – Equanimity
Special Guest Speaker: Bhante Bhaddiya*
Bhante Bhaddiya, a Buddhist monk from the Blue Lotus Temple in Woodstock, IL will be here to join us for service. He will be speaking on "Equanimity", which is one of the four Buddhist "Divine Abodes”, (the others being Loving-kindness, Compassion, and Empathetic Joy). He may also be sharing his lovely chanting voice with us. ALL are welcome. (*See events page for more info.)
Jan 27 – Community Service Project – Clean, Clear, and Organize Our Church
To keep up with the month’s theme of Balance, it makes sense to be sure we are supporting our own community here at UUCL, namely our church, which has been a bit neglected lately. We will be cleaning things up, sorting, and purging to free up some space and have a fresh look for the new year ahead. If there is something you have left at the church (especially dish-ware), it would be wise to come pick it up by this date so it does not get ousted during the purge.

Feb 10 – Coffee Talk Discussion – Congregational review of Our New Service Schedule
Moderator: Sunday Services Committee Chair, Jody Pogorzelski
If there is something you’d like to say about our new service schedule: 1st and 3rd Sunday Services, 2nd Sunday Discussions, and 3rd Sunday Community service Projects, now is the time to say it. February marks the five-month review of this (which was agreed upon at the 2018 Annual Meeting), to determine whether to continue forward with the new schedule, or not. Jody will lead us in a respectful discussion on this topic. Come with an open mind and feel free to share your thoughts, ideas, and perspectives on the subject.
