SUMMARY:Over 60s Sponsored Presentation:  Philosophical Religion: FUUSN’s Heritage
DESCRIPTION:January 26\, 2025\, 12-1:30 pm\nAlliance Room and Zoom\nLunch bites provided\nPresenter: Arthur Anderson\, JD\, author of The Transcendentalists and the Death and Rebirth of Western Philosophical Religion: Part 1\, Ancient Philosophy as a Religious Way of Life; Part 2\, Abrahamic Religion against Freedom of Thought\nIndependent Researcher\, Teacher \nIn a radical departure from Abrahamic faiths\, the Transcendentalist movement in 19th century Unitarianism saw the locus of religious authority as residing within the individual rather than a religious organization or sacred text. Transcendentalists were greatly influenced by ancient philosophy as a religious way of life which was based on the locus of religious authority within the individual. Arthur will discuss how the freedom of religious thought found at FUUSN and in contemporary UU is rooted in classical philosophical religion or ancient philosophy as a religious way of life. \nThis will be a wonderful opportunity to discuss and learn from Arthur who has an historical perspective providing an illuminating look at history\, our Concord/Boston inspiring figures/FUUSN founders in 1848 and our Unitarian roots. Do join us Sunday\, January 26\, 2025 for this Stimulating Presentation! \nSmall bites for lunch.\nZoom link sent out close to the event. \nInformation re: A. Anderson’ research and work can be found at https://arthur-anderson.com/

SUMMARY:Social Justice Action Presentation: Leadership Development in the Wake of the Recent Election Results
DESCRIPTION:Everyone is invited for our monthly free lunch at noon after coffee hour in the Alliance Room (RSVP required). UU Rev. Jo Murphy will speak about her work as executive director of the UU Mass Action organization coordinating with all the UU congregations in Massachusetts. She will emphasize leadership development in the wake of the recent election\nresults. \nUU Mass Action was founded by Lynn Holbein\, former Co-Chair of the FUUSN Social Action Council before she moved to North Carolina. Their mission is to organize and mobilize UUs in Massachusetts to confront oppression. They provide pathways towards justice and identify opportunities in which we can live our shared values. They build relationships with congregational leaders and work to develop their leadership and engage them in our statewide campaigns. These are campaigns on climate and economic justice\, immigrant justice\, housing justice\, youth engagement and more. Every year in April they lead all congregational teams to lobby their state representatives and senators about pending legislation that need sponsorships and support. Rev. Jo worked as a chaplain at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston for the past two years\, in addition to being a case manager supporting people living with brain injuries. She is a volunteer organizer with the Boston Immigration Justice Accompaniment Network and with the Boston chapter of Standing Up for Racial Justice. \nPlease RSVP (required).
