UU Lent – Day 18 – Music

CZ

“Music once admitted to the soul becomes a sort of spirit and never dies.” – Edward Bulwer Lytton

“Music was my refuge. I could crawl into the space between the notes and curl my back to loneliness.”  ― Maya Angelou

“Music is like a dream. One that I cannot hear.” ―  Ludwig van Beethoven

“Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything.” ― Plato

“Music has always been a matter of Energy to me, a question of Fuel. Sentimental people call it Inspiration, but what they really mean is Fuel. I have always needed Fuel. I am a serious consumer. On some nights I still believe that a car with the gas needle on empty can run about fifty more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio.” ― Hunter S. Thompson

Why They Sing by Carie J Johnsen

UU Lent – Day 17 – Doubt

CZ

“The freedom to doubt, to question, to be content to live in Mystery is central to the liberal religious tradition. Like the process of evolution itself, the path that we follow—our practice—is not easy or simple. It isn’t without its dead ends or its disappointments. It doesn’t guarantee that all of our conclusions will be final or that we will ever find an answer to all of our questions. But also like the process of evolution, it is filled with great expressions of beauty and awe that are sometimes born of great struggle and at other times come as unexpected grace.” – Paul Stephan Dodenhoff

Making Space for our Doubts by Becky Brooks

CZ

According to the dictionary wisdom is 1) the soundness of an action or decision with regard to the application of experience, knowledge, and good judgment and 2) the quality of having experience, knowledge, and good judgment; the quality of being wise.

Join us for Worship: This week John Hall will present a service titled, “The Power of Spiritual Mash-Ups: Innovate and Celebrate!”

Our services are Sundays at 11 a.m. at the Progressive Women’s Association Event Center, 305 Washington Ave. in downtown Clarksburg, behind the Courthouse. There are classes for children and adults 10 to 10:45 am, and a coffee gathering before the service. More about us.

Classes and worship are replaced by Spiritual Outings on the first Sunday of each month during the summer, with brief worship, a potluck picnic, and outdoor activities. The schedule is in the sidebar.

We would love to have you come worship with us.

Children are welcome.  There is childcare and an activity for young children during the service.
