Services for February 2004
February 1
Black History Month: Absent Friends Rev. Dave Lutz
At Allegheny we will be remembering friends and neighbors who are absent. Even those of us who care can be part of white cutoff; bridging efforts lead to complications. What is our response?
February 8
Being A Good Neighbor Janice Parks
Friend and neighbor Janice Parks wants us to think about what we can do in our neighborhoods to help those who don’t have—what programs and initiatives can be developed and sustained, and how this work can be informed by our neighbors themselves.
February 15
Communion Service 10:00 am Reader: Donald Zeilman
Monthly gathering that celebrates our community of faith in action—please join us.
When Democracy Makes Us Antsy 11:00 am Rev. Dave Lutz
Often democratic institutions, whether government or churches,get restless with this messy, inefficient process, and regularly move to curtail it. How do we take our community stands without running over our minority voices?
February 22
Negotiating with Religion, Searching for Myth Lawrence Wray
The religious function of mythology, Joseph Campbell says, represents our recognition of the mystery of being. Many of us travel from one religion to another looking for a deepened experience of this mystery, having tried to come to terms with the old practices and received truths. What does this traveling and searching mean about our sense of spiritual truth?
February 25
Ash Wednesday Service 7:30 pm Rev. Dave Lutz
Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of Lent, of being “in the wilderness”—never a popular place to be, yet perhaps a place of new possibilities. Come join us for this brief Service of reflection.
February 29
Remembering Art Rev. Dave Lutz
Part of preparing for a new chapter in the life of Allegheny is celebrating the past, especially the past pastor. Come and share a favorite story, photo or memento about Art McDonald, as we celebrate the past in anticipation of our future.
Sunday Service at Allegheny
Unitarian Universalist Church begins at 11 o'clock.
