January 16, 2022 at 10:00 am Judy Crain Judy Crain will reflect on where we find ourselves in this unique time and how we look to the future. Judy Crain has lived in Green Bay for many years and has been active in our community and the state, including the Green Bay Board of Education, the UW Board or Regents, and the United Way, She has a UW degree in American History and a Master’s Degree in Theology from Garrett Seminary. Children’s RE Focus: It takes passion to live with intention. We explore how passion takes our inner steering wheel and drives us toward what is most important to us. This way our passions steer our values and our actions, not just social pressures and messages from society.

January 9, 2022 at 10:00 am Katina Daanen Henry David Thoreau wrote: “I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.” The words of this important American philosopher resonant with many UUs as well as myself. What does Thoreau teach us about living with intention and the ideals expressed in Transcendentalism, and what have my immersive solo adventures taught me about the importance of solitude? Katina hiked the Appalachian Trail in 2016-2017 and has through-paddled the 740-mile long Northern Forest Canoe Trail twice, completing her most recent solo trip in 2021. She is also the author of the Northern Forest Canoe Trail Through-Paddler’s Companion, a guidebook for paddling the water trail in its full west to east direction. Katina is a member of the Sunday Service Team at the Green Bay Area Unitarian Universalist Fellowship and is currently working toward a Masters degree in Liberal Studies at St. Norbert College. Children’s RE Focus: It takes persistence to live with intention. We will focus on the persistence Unitarian Henry David Thoreau must have had when he undertook his famous canoe trip through Maine?

January 2, 2022 at 10:00 am Rev. Jim Coakley Tis the annual season of hopeful resolve followed quickly by disappointment. Phillip Moffitt, a renowned vipassana (insight) meditation teacher helps us better comprehend the difference between goals and intentions. Ironically, maybe we should be setting new year’s goals to become more intentional? Children’s RE Focus: It takes empathy to live with intention. When it comes to intentionally going about social change, one of the key things needed is empathy. When we are able to empathize with and have a personal experience around a social inequality, it activates our intention and our desire to change things.

December 12, 2021 at 10:00 am Rev. Jim Coakley Brene Brown reminds us that twinkling holiday lights are a great metaphor for how joy works. We may expect it to come as a flood light, but rather it comes in small seemingly random moments. Remaining open to these moments is the key to being open to joy. Children’s RE Focus: We create joy by celebrating the power of silly and the work of whimsy guide our way!
