Beacon Deadline
We are making changes to the Beacon schedule to help it better match our work schedule. The current mismatch has resulted in repeated delays, so changes are being made to make the deadline after Ministry Sunday. Please send information for the next issue by Thursday January 26th.. Please include all activities through March 7th. Be sure to see the full details, including the deadlines for the rest of the year, at this link.

7pm Common GroUUnds Event
Come join our exclusive opening for a new year of Common GroUUnds. This is exclusive to UUCL members and those outside our congregation willing to work in order to provide our local singer/songwriters and artists a place to call home.
I want those who will bring ideas, are not afraid of change, or getting their hands dirty, and who think they can make CG a local sensation. This is a trial event with music, food and drinks (BYOB) to spark the beginning of a new CG. It's been too long, and I, for one, am ready to bring the revolution back to original artists of all genres. Please join us. For more info, please contact Daniel Whitt @Dwhitt83@gmail.com

10am Religious Exploration for kids This year our students are exploring "Timeless Themes", about stories from the Bible and how, or maybe even if, they fit into their lives as contemporary UnitarianUniversalists in America.
10am Adult Discussion Group Why is there such a gap between “moral”behavior and human nature?
11am Worship Service "Imbolc Potential and the Charming of the Plow" Any month with five Sundays (like this one!) our fifth Sunday service is offered by our EarthFamilies chapter of the Covenant of Unitarian Universalist Pagans. Please join us as they present a service welcoming spring into our hearths and homes. Many of us do a physical spring cleaning during this time, let's not forget our spiritual and emotional spring cleaning.
12:15pm Executive Session The Board of Trustees will meet in a special Executive Session after service. Executive Sessions concern employment and other confidential issues, and are not open to the membership. However, this venue is for discussion only, and any action to be taken will be recorded as part of the minutes at the next meeting of the Board.
Chalice Circles
Would you like to participate in a Chalice Circle? You can sign up after service on Sunday. An open session will be offered after potluck on February 12th in the Library for those wanting a sample or unable to participate in the ongoing circles. You can find more information at this link.
