Need some help.
Best friend checked himself on suicide watch. (Great- Iβm proud of him!) Treatment restricts communication w friends (bad for me)
Another good friend passed away last year. (Horrible)
Single dad to special needs son (blessing, but challenge)
On uua.org many links for references to conference centers that host UU retreats, most are canceled due to covid.
Anyone of any upcoming retreats? Iβm needing help. Thanks

Epiphany is the moment we knew our lives would be the same. In a thousand huge and miniscule ways, we experienced epiphanyΒ all throughout 2021. Now we are in 2022, knowing differently. What did we realize and when? What might we know next?
This is purely out of curiosity from me. Please do not complain about another poll. Lol
I was raised in a Unitarian church, and while I still find the basic principles and values to be worthy, I haven't been a regular church attendee since my mid teens. I'm 64 now. I should state that I grew up in Silicon Valley, so that you understand that science was the focus of a lot of the people my family interfaced with. I have been atheist since a very tender age (maybe 6 or 7).
I recently started dating after a divorce, and came across a UU minister who was single. She explained the diversity of her church, including New Age spiritual people and pagans.
I always felt that the principle that we use Reason to interpret the world around us was one of the stronger components of the the Unitarian belief set. But I would consider New Age spiritualism and paganism to be too herpy-derpy to even apply Reason to figure out where they fit in the world.
Have Unitarians become too tolerant of silly things like this? What's next, astrology? I know we're supposed to be Tolerant of all, but when we compromise Reason in favor of Tolerance, we end up with mental mush.
What do you think?
"Kwanzaa" Sunday, December 26, 10:50 am, Worship Service
This Sunday we will celebrate and deepen our understanding of Kwanzaa, an African American and Pan-African cultural holiday observed by millions of people worldwide.

Hello, I'm a married man in my late 20s and expecting a baby. I used to be a devout evangelical Christian, but has grown more and more liberal over the past 5 years. I have studied buddhism and some new age-like (or should I say non-dual) traditions (such as A Course in Miracles and Seth) , and recently become more interested in psychedelics after several impactful experiences with psilocybin mushroom.
Both my wife and I are in the mental health field. We both find it hard to find local young adult friends that also have interest in progressive spirituality.
I live in Ontario, Canada. Our local UU church is mostly nice, elderly adults. The lack of people in 20s and 30s bothers me though. I really wonder why this is. Where are the spiritually-inclined younger people? Do people here have any advice for me?
Thanks.
Join us Christmas Eve for a night of classic Christmas readings, carols, and candlelight.Β
Whose holiday is it, anyway? Historians point out the pagan roots of Yule amidst voices calling for a more religious and less inclusive Christmas. In truth, the holiday has always been a melding of traditions, a pluralistic celebration of humanity and the world in which ... read more.
