Sunday Services start at 10:30 a.m.
Hosea Ballou, who inspired the first Universalists in Nova Scotia, believed in a complete and loving forgiveness for all wrongdoing - but only after just retribution. His cousin Adin Ballou, who inspired Leo Tolstoy (and then Gandhi) believed instead in an immediate forgiveness. What do you yourself need, in order to feel a satisfactory reconciliation?
The topic we will be chewing on, from a humanist point of view, is the pluses and minuses of Artificial Intelligence. AI affects our lives in so many ways. All are welcome to join in the discussion. 3rd Sunday of the month, after the service.
Bring-Your-Own Bag Lunch get-togethers are planned for Wednesdays from 12:15 to 1:30. No agenda, just ‘how’s your spirit today’ check-ins and a conversation topic. We’ll start with weekly gatherings and see how that schedule works for the group.
Depending on the interests of those who come, we will write, draw, sing or dance. Perhaps it will open our hearts and minds; connect us with ourselves, each other and something larger; and awaken awe at something just beyond reach.
From white lies to keeping nuanced opinions to ourselves, we might find that the masks we wear have become too much. We'll honour the human condition of partial transparency and partial estrangement, and we'll consider when it is worth the risk to keep it real.
Led by Marilyn Shinyei and Ben Robins, the first in a series of 6 sessions. Spoiler Alert: There will be dark humour and lots of laughs. Tentative dates are: Nov 24, Dec 8, Jan 12 & 26 and Feb 9 & 23 We have an End-of-Life planner available that you can purchase for $12 (optional)....
Dogs welcome

With a musical service featuring the Pick-Up Choir and the Afterchoir, we enter into what for some of us is a season of hope - for ourselves and our loved ones, for the region and our country, for the world.
