STOP IN THE NAME OF LOVE!
How busy are we all? We seem to cram so much busyness into the days, weeks, months and years! The concept of a “year,” is roughly one journey of our planet round the sun. As the great wheel has been turning once more, what did you leave behind as the revolution starts again? What did you begin again over the last 28 days? What dream, what conviction, what love travels forward into 2016 with you?
We begin the second month of 2016. Now is a great time to take a measurement of how you are starting this new year. How do we make decisions about the precious time that we have? I am borrowing here from an article about the top regrets of the dying - see if any of these ring true for you...
1. I wish I'd had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me.
2. I wish I hadn't worked so hard.
3. I wish I'd had the courage to express my feelings.
4. I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends.
5. I wish that I had let myself be happier.
As February opens, Pacific Unitarian Church has a lot of great things for you to experience beyond our amazing Sunday morning service and brunch. If we view love as something larger than romantic partner love, we have LOTS of LOVING things in store for you! Join us—connect with PUC people, your friends who have never been to PUC, connect with children… IN THE NAME OF LOVE!
The Black and White Concert is Saturday, Feb. 13th at 7:30 pm. and the RE Committee is providing “Parents Night Out” on the same night!
Secret Pals will also be running until Valentine's Day! Forge new friendships as you are paired with a big or little person through the exchange of weekly letters and a lunch together at the end.
To open our hearts even deeper, we also have meditation groups - every Tuesday night and a new First Thursday Zen Meditation and Talk Thursday evening the 4th of February, facilitated by interim minister James Ford.
As the musical RENT measures it - 525,600 minutes - are but an eye-blink, really, but within a year there’s more than ample time for love. So, STOP IN THE NAME OF LOVE with us!
