Easter: When Things Are Not As They Seem
2025-04-20 10:30 - 12:30 | West Room and Zoom
Presented by Rev. Lee Anne Washington

Rampant partisanship in every aspect of our communal lives makes it difficult to determine what’s really going on. Similarly, the Easter story is rife with misunderstandings, misidentifications, and miscommunications. As a religious community, what should we do when things are not as they appear? Join us as Rev. Lee Anne explores the Easter story with this question in mind and invites us to consider the gifts that come with a new perspective.
The Break Forth Ensemble will lead us in song and the children will hunt for Easter eggs during the service.

What's the Big Deal About Methane?
2025-04-27 10:30 - 12:30 | West Room and Zoom
Methane is a powerful greenhouse gas and a major driver of climate change. In fact, reducing methane emissions can have a much greater impact on slowing global warming than reducing carbon dioxide.
What makes methane especially urgent is that it’s all around us—from agriculture and landfills to energy production—making this issue deeply personal and impossible to ignore.
The Green Sanctuary team is sharing the facts about methane and practical action ideas you’re sure to use.

————————————-
The UUCNH Meditation Group will explore the contemplative practice of meditation. Together we will learn and practice various types of meditation, including meditation on breath, mindfulness meditation, and loving-kindness meditation. Sessions will last between 45-60 minutes, 30 of which will consist of guided meditation, with the remaining time reserved for questions and discussion. Please join us; no registration required.
Meditation is an ancient contemplative practice that permeates cultural and religious boundaries, with roots in most faith traditions. It can also be a totally secular practice. While our group will primarily explore meditation practices that are prominent in the Buddhist tradition, these teachings will be applicable to individuals of all backgrounds and beliefs, aligning with our Unitarian Universalist principles of acceptance of one another and encouragement to spiritual growth in our congregations.
To begin, we will use guided meditation recordings from the Insight Meditation Center, specifically their Introduction to Mindfulness series. Each recording provides context and basic instruction, with additional guidance throughout the session. A gentle bell will signal the conclusion of the meditation, after which we can take a few minutes to reflect and share our experiences. We may also incorporate a brief loving-kindness meditation at the beginning to help settle and gladden the mind, making it more conducive to mindfulness meditation. Our program will evolve over time, and we welcome feedback and suggestions.
Our group embraces this timeless spiritual practice to foster a deeper connection with ourselves and the world around us. Whether you seek insight, relaxation, or a sense of community sitting together in silence, we welcome you to join us on a journey of mindfulness, concentration, and compassion.

E - Ukulele Group
2025-04-28 19:00 - 20:00 | East Room
Bring your ukulele, music and a table stand if you have one. If not come anyway. We are good at sharing and often have an extra uke or two. If you are not sure that you are interested in joining the group, come and see what it’s like and then decide. Beginners welcome. It’s a lot of fun. Looking forward to seeing your smiling faces. There’s something about ukulele that just makes me smile!
