2022-02-20 11:00 - 12:00 | MqtUU Meeting House, 1510 M-28 East, Marquette, MI, 49855, United States
It’s February, the month of Valentine’s Day. At this time we hear a lot about the heart-pounding, brain-draining excitement of new love. But some lovers are blessed, when the romantic stage passes, with a love that grows in depth and complexity until they become almost like one person simultaneously inhabiting two different bodies. Yes, that can sound a little scary, as people worry about losing themselves in that other person, but the truth is that this type of love can put us more in touch with who we really are than new love ever dreams of. Masks are required for in-person attendance.

Bring Back the Snakes! An Alternative Look At St. Patrick's Day with February Sky
2022-03-20 11:00 - 12:00 | MqtUU Meeting House, 1510 M-28 East, Marquette, MI, 49855, United States
The “snakes” that St. Patrick drove out of Ireland were actually the Druidic, Pagan and Celtic ways that the people there had followed for centuries. Whether he drove them out by violence or assimilation, St. Patrick destroyed religious practices and beliefs that were very much life-affirming – among other things, the idea of living in harmony with the natural world and thinking for oneself instead of following authority! Hmmm…..sounds kinda Unitarian, doesn’t it… Let’s bring back the snakes! Masks will be required to attend in person.
Order of Service available here.

The path of immigrants in America has not been all easy money and streets paved with gold. Besides leaving behind family and beloved homelands, immigrants have often been subjected to discrimination, overwork, low wages and substandard living conditions. We will look at the treatment of various immigrant groups when they first arrived in the U.S., and consider how we, as Unitarian Universalists, can help to welcome our new neighbors from other lands.
