August 1 ~ Lincoln Memorial Garden Through the Seasons

As Lincoln Memorial Garden approaches its 75th anniversary, Jim Matheis, Executive Director, will give us a look at the Garden’s founding, history and current programs.

August 8 ~ Unitarian Universalist Philosophical Science & Scientific Philosophy Joseph Priestly, Hosea Ballou, and Bertrand Russell”, with Jeff Bennett and Berkley Moore as presenters.

Not a debate, but a conversation between Jeff and Berkley regarding three great pioneers of the dialogue between science and philosophy from the perspective of free religion.

August 15 ~ Edvard Grieg and Béla Bartók: What ties them together? Karen Lynn Deal, Illinois Symphony Orchestra Conductor

Karen Lynn Deal, Illinois Symphony Orchestra Conductor, will introduce us to the lives of these two (Unitarian Universalist) composers who often blended the folk tunes of their countries into their music.

August 22 ~ Our Principles and Values Bring Us Together - Carol Floyd

Unitarian Universalists can agree on seven principles more easily than on any specific belief. These principles are what bring UU’s together with liberal Christians and also with many non-religious people. Carol Floyd will provide some UU history, “Good without God” billboard stories, and bits of pop culture.

August 29 ~ What Will We Stand For … Next? Rev. Martin Woulfe

Nearly fifty years ago, the Unitarians and the Universalists merged into a new denomination. What have been some of the milestones of the last half century, and what may we infer about our future as a religious movement?

September 5 ~ A Tale of Two Women: Beatrix Potter (1866-1943) and Sophia Lyon Fahs (1876-1978) Cathy McKamey

Cathy McKamey presents how love of and respect for children and family life was at the heart of the lives of these two very different women. As they struggled to utilize their talents, their beliefs and interests led them both to defy the conventions of their time regarding the “proper place” of women and children.

We are a Welcoming Congregation.       Standing on the Side of Love project
