Dennis invites us to explore the science of how humans perceive the world differently from animals and from other humans. We participate in a fun chemistry experiment and find many examples from a new book called “An Immense World” by Ed Yong (2022) to discover that what we thought we knew from our senses just ain’t necessarily so! The implications are vast and amazing as we progress through the mathematics of infinity, examples of perception among animals, and challenges to popular beliefs. From this new perspective we get fresh insights of the principles of Unitarian Universalism: search for Truth, worthiness of each of us, and justice without judgement.
We’ll meet in Adams Hall to learn about Michigan initiatives to protect our right to vote and to write letters and postcards to get out the vote. Our letters and postcards will encourage reluctant or new voters to use their voice and will count toward our Good Trouble Congregation designation.
Welcoming our new March Soul Matters theme of Trust, this multigenerational service will explore how we can build confidence in relationships with the community around us, and how that community can support us through times of hardships.
Breaking unhealthy patterns and cycles in our lives can feel impossible sometimes. Join us as we explore how we can find the courage to do the impossible and trust that something better will emerge on the other side.
