Special “Workship” Sunday
Today is a Special “Workship” Sunday, with UUA guest speaker, lunch (provided), and additional discussion session after lunch. Please plan to join us for some or (preferably) all! This workshop will be led by Dr. Melissa James, Congregational Life Field Staff in the UUA Pacific Western Region. This will be an opportunity for UUFLG and our minister Shams Cohen to strengthen our grounding, deepen relationships, and clarify mutual expectations about ministry, as we continue our journey together, building on the good work that we’ve done together over the past nine months. The service will be from 11 to 12:15ish. Lunch will be from 12:15 to 1ish, and the closing workshop will be from 1 to 2:30ish. This is a great day to show up with your considered opinions, historical knowledge of UUFLG, and hopes and dreams for our future together!

Motherhood: A Journey to Self-Discovery
This Sunday, we’ll explore the inner transformation that can unfold through the experience of motherhood. Drawing inspiration from Lisa Marchiano’s book Motherhood, we’ll look at how the challenges and joys of raising children can serve as a powerful path toward self-discovery and spiritual growth. Using a Jungian perspective and rich archetypal imagery from fairytales, we’ll reflect on how the role of mother can awaken deeper parts of the self and guide us toward individuation. Whether you are a mother, have one, or simply seek a deeper understanding of this sacred role, all are welcome to join this meaningful conversation. –Jamie Heisch, Service Lay Leader

Stronger Together
To make our world better, each of us must celebrate and share our unique gifts to nurture our planet. As curious, spiritually independent people, our Fellowship strives to provide an open and supportive environment to explore the creativity, strength, and wisdom within the diverse experiences and aspirations of each of us. We find joy and meaning in such a community. And by working together, we strengthen our connections.
