SUMMARY:Sunday Nov 2\, The Hidden Books: Enoch and the Giants with Melanie McCrea
DESCRIPTION:The Book of Enoch is an ancient text that describes events said to take place before the Great Flood. Enoch was the father of Methuselah and the great-grandfather of Noah. He is mentioned only briefly in Genesis: “Enoch walked with God\, and he was not\, for God took him.”  Join Melanie McCrea this Sunday for this fascinating exploration! \nMelanie is a BA Graduate\, Mother and Death Survivor. \nPlongeons-nous dans le Livre d’Hénoch\, un texte ancien qui relate des événements censés s’être déroulés avant le Déluge. Hénoch était le père de Mathusalem et l’arrière-grand-père de Noé. Il est brièvement mentionné dans la Genèse : « Hénoch marcha avec Dieu ; puis il disparut\, car Dieu le prit. » Rejoignez Melanie McCrea ce dimanche pour cette exploration fascinante ! \nMélanie est diplômée d’une licence\, mère et survivante d’un deuil.

SUMMARY:Sunday Nov 9\, Faith\, Hope\, Charity: The Power and Beauty of Biblical Bob with Dr. Stuart McKelvie
DESCRIPTION:Throughout his career\, Bob Dylan’s songs have been suffused with Biblical imagery.

McKelvie taught psychology and conducted research at Bishop’s University from 1972 until 2013. \nStuart likes sport\, exercise\, photography\, reading\, haikus and limericks but\, since the early 1960s\, he has avidly listened to\, followed and read about Bob Dylan. Following Dylan’s 2016 award of the Nobel Prize in Literature\, he has given numerous presentations about Bob’s work. \n~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ \nTout au long de sa carrière\, les chansons de Bob Dylan ont été imprégnées d’imagerie biblique. S’appuyant sur les trois dons spirituels mentionnés dans 1 Corinthiens 13:13\, Stuart explorera ce thème et l’illustrera à l’aide d’extraits d’albums et de concerts de Bob. \nDiplômé des universités de Glasgow\, Stirling et McGill\, le Dr Stuart J. McKelvie a enseigné la psychologie et mené des recherches à l’Université Bishop’s de 1972 à 2013. \nStuart apprécie le sport\, l’exercice physique\, la photographie\, la lecture\, les haïkus et les limericks\, mais depuis le début des années 1960\, il écoute\, suit et lit avec passion Bob Dylan.

SUMMARY:Sunday Nov 23\, Transcendental Wisdom From Our Unitarian Ancestors La sagesse transcendantale de nos ancêtres unitariens with Amy Panetta\, MA - Lay Service Leader
DESCRIPTION:As November leans toward December and the world outside grows quieter\, we’ll turn to the Transcendentalists\, Emerson\, Thoreau\, and Margaret Fuller\, for guidance on the inner life. Together we’ll explore how their vision of intuition\, nature\, and the “Over-Soul” still speaks to our Unitarian Universalist hearts today\, especially in this reflective\, late-autumn season. This service will weave gentle humor\, story\, and contemplation\, inviting us to listen for the quiet wisdom within and around us as we move into winter. \nAmy Panetta\, MA has served as Lay Chaplain and Lay Service Leader at UU Estrie and is a trained music educator\, ethnomusicologist\, family historian\, and author.  As a 25-year Unitarian Universalist\, Amy brings an open and curious spirit to her work\, nurturing peace\, compassion\, and connection through a deep reverence for nature\, culture\, and community. \nAlors que novembre cède la place à décembre et que le monde extérieur s’apaise\, nous nous tournerons vers les transcendantalistes\, Emerson\, Thoreau et Margaret Fuller\, pour trouver des réponses à nos questions intérieures. Ensemble\, nous explorerons comment leur vision de l’intuition\, de la nature et de l’Âme universelle résonne encore aujourd’hui en nous\, unitariens universalistes\, particulièrement en cette fin d’automne propice à la réflexion. Ce temps de recueillement mêlera humour\, récits et contemplation\, nous invitant à écouter la sagesse silencieuse qui nous habite et nous entoure à l’approche de l’hiver. \nAmy Panetta\, MA\, a été aumônière laïque et responsable des services laïques à l’église unitarienne universaliste d’Estrie. Elle est également pédagogue musicale\, ethnomusicologue\, généalogiste et auteure. Membre de l’Église unitarienne universaliste depuis 25 ans\, Amy aborde son travail avec ouverture d’esprit et curiosité\, cultivant la paix\, la compassion et le lien social grâce à un profond respect pour la nature\, la culture et la communauté.
