the Life Span Education Committee According to William Ellery
Channing, “The great end in religious instruction is not to stamp our
minds upon the young, but to stir up their own.” Danielle will explore
with us how our RE program lives up to this statement, as well as how we
can we make it stronger. June 14 Islam Looks at Racism given by Wells Staley-Mays,
Mansour Ahmed, and El Fadel Arbab Islam honors all races and
admonishes Muslims to avoid attitudes of superiority based on race. This morning
three Muslims will assert, borrowing the title of a book from Imam
Abdul Rauf, that “what is right with Islam is right with America.” The
models of Medina and the U. S. Constitution affirm that we are all one
humankind and must work together to achieve equality and justice. Portland
resident Wells Staley-Mays, M.Div., became a Muslim in 2000 after years of
study and travel. Mansour Ahmed is the president of the Fur Cultural
Revival, a Portland organization that seeks to educate the public about the
genocide in Darfur and to assist individuals and institutions in divesting
from companies doing business with the government of Sudan. El Fadel Arbab is an
activist working in the Save Darfur Coalition, a national
alliance with a similar mission. June 21 Going to the Very Edge:
Where the old world ends and something new begins. given by our minister, Pam
Gross An edge is a place of
transition and transformation, a place both terrifying and inspiring. And thus an edge
is a place of spiritual deepening. Where are the “edges” of your life? June 28 Communing With Flowers led by UU gardeners All are invited to come at this
time of “blooming” to hear some of the gardeners among us speak about
their personal passion. The annual “Flower Communion” will also be
given to honor religious freedom and our first principle “The
inherent worth and dignity of every person.” Everyone is encouraged to bring
a flower for the communion baskets. July 5 How Can We Keep from
Singing? given by Sumner Roberts Do you feel a surge of gladness
when the next hymn turns out to be a beloved one? Do you love to
hear spontaneous harmonies arising from our congregation? Then join us for
Sumner’s “hymn sing,” one of the most spirited services of the year,
and be ready to request your favorites.
