"The Hero and the Shaman: Without the Dark There Is No Light"
We usher the community through the vernal equinox--the portal to springtime at which darkness and light are poised in balance--with a rite of balanced polarities drawn from Mesoamerican religious thought. Plumed Serpent and Smoking Mirror, embody the forces of civility and disruption that make individuals and societies alive in all ways. Growing into each other and out of each other, these two Aspects--the Culture Hero and the Shaman--channel indispensible power for both social change and mystical growth.
Sunday 28 March 10:30 am Justice Sunday
Speaker: Natalia Rudiak
"The Courage to Demand a Great Society"
“Unfortunately, many Americans live on the outskirts of hope." Those words were spoken by Lyndon B. Johnson in his 1964 State of the Union address. At that time, we saw what was arguably the most aggressive legislative program to combat poverty in the history of our country. Gains were made, but have eroded as our economic and political climate changed. If we are to commit ourselves to fighting with the poor, we have to be courageous, stand up for what we believe in, and be willing to change ourselves. Natalia Rudiak is a first-term Pittsburgh City Councilwoman representing several southern neighborhoods.

The Ortner-Roberts Duo
Thank God, It's Spring
Saturday, March 20th
6:30 pm Reception / 7:30 pm Concert
Please join in celebrating Allegheny Unitarian Universalist Church's 100th year! The local Ortner-Roberts Duo is offering their Hot World Chamber Music in a "Thank God It's Spring" concert fundraiser for the 100 year-old building on the corner of W. North Ave. and Resaca Place, on Saturday, March 20, at 7:30PM. Tickets are pre-sold for $15 at Buena Vista coffee on Buena Vista and Jacksonia Streets, at KS Kennedy flowers on Western Ave., and of course through the church by calling 412/322-4261. There are door prizes for pre-sold tickets, and tickets at the door are $18.
The church has hosted, promoted, or been part of establishing such North Side service providers as the North Side Coalition for Fair Housing, North Side Common Ministries, Pittsburgh Interfaith Impact Network, and the Young Men's and Women's African Heritage Association. Even the Central North Side Neighborhood Council was founded on church property when it was conceived as an ombudsman for neighborhood residents and service providers.
With no support from endowments or denominational resources, we need the support of our neighbors! Please show some love to this venerable old institution that continues to show this neighborhood so much love--even after 100 years.
