May 7: “What a Paine... Thomas Paine that is!”
 
Was he an American Patriot or was he a Philosopher/Theologian?
Our speaker will hope to shed light upon this most interesting of questions. This promises to be an interesting and stimulating reflection.

May 21: "Is it Woo-wooism or Spirituality?"
 
There are many ways to look at spirituality that are not connected with formal religion. Some new age practices that are considered spiritual draw people in, but they can also be a little sketchy. We want to keep ourselves open to spiritual experiences, but we also want to walk safely on the sidewalk so that we miss the cracks that can trip us up. Spiritual life, like regular life, should offer us new opportunities, but we still need a solid foundation of religious experience  to help us see the differences between "Woo-wooism" and new life affirming spiritual practices that will serve us well for the future. 
  
 
May 28:  "I Like Where I Live"   
 
Often when we travel, we come away with an appreciation of where we live. The same can happen when we visit different churches.  When we take time to experience different rituals or orders of service, it can help to affirm our appreciation of our church home where we live. We will talk about why I like where I live.

The church's driveway lined with items for the homeless to take.  We couldn't find an agency to help so we decided to do this.  Someone is taking them and we're hoping it will make them more comfortable in our cold snowy climate.
