I completed a Teacher Training Renaissance Module through the UUA just yesterday and picked up this quote through some of my required reading. I thought it spoke beautifully about exactly how Unitarian Universalists hold one another in community:
“The opposite of a correct statement is a false statement. But the opposite of a profound truth may well be another profound truth.” -Niels Bohr
May this month of welcoming remind us of the ways we not only strive to embrace and invite one another, but all we have to learn from others too.
What is happening, including some new things:
Children’s Faith Development
Children’s programming this Sunday will be provided by Macey and Deb, following our tale for all ages.
We are in need of a nursery caretaker to accompany Lee this week. Please contact Macey at cfddirector@uumankato.org if you are interested in volunteering this week or another time in the future.
If you have not registered your child or youth yet this year, please do so here:

Intergenerational Art Journaling
Deb and Macey will host an art journaling group at the UUFM Fellowship Hall on Wednesday, October 25th, from 6:30-8pm. If you’re confused and not sure what art journaling is exactly, you may consider peeking at this link that comes up on a quick Google search: How To Start An Art Journal: A Complete Beginner’s Guide – Artful Haven
The short answer is that an art journal is a visual diary for you to express yourself in whatever way suits you. It can be deeply emotional or light and fun, as you play and experiment with materials.
Some supplies will be available, but you are welcome to bring your own. I would also be grateful for donations of extra materials!
