SUMMARY:Water Communion /  Communion de l'eau - in person at the church
DESCRIPTION:Our first in-person service since March 15\, 2020 is sure to be a special one. To mark this occasion we will be holding our annual water communion service. Please see the Covid-19 guidelines at the bottom of this post to learn about the precautions we are taking to protect our community. \nEveryone is invited to bring a little water and pour it into a large communal bowl and tell where it is from\, or what it means to them\, or whatever. Water will be available for those who fail or forget to bring some of their own. The Water Communion is a ritual that allows us to share the meaning of significant happenings that we have experienced. \n~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ \nTout le monde est invité à apporter un peu d’eau et à la verser dans un grand bol commun et à dire d’où elle vient\, ou ce que cela signifie pour eux\, ou peu importe. L’eau sera disponible pour ceux qui échouent ou oublient d’apporter une partie de leur part. La communion de l’eau est un rituel qui nous permet de partager le sens d’événements significatifs que nous avons vécus. \n\nUUEstrie Covid-19 Guidelines\nThe following guidelines are intended to ensure the safety of members\, friends and visitors of UUEstrie at UUEstrie-hosted in-person events. \n\nYou may attend an in-person event if you are fully vaccinated for Covid-19 according to the definition set by the Government of Quebec (at least 2 weeks following the second dose). \nMasks must be worn at all times indoors\, including during the service\, with the exception of the service leader or primary presenter.\nHand sanitizer will be provided at the entrance and exit.\nSocial distancing will be encouraged inside the church building. Some of the pews will not be available for seating to help maintain distancing.\nServices will not include congregational singing.\nServices will not include coffee hour.\n\nNote: UUEstrie cannot guarantee the vaccination status of all members and visitors so each individual must assess the risk for themselves when deciding whether to attend in-person events.

SUMMARY:Lessons from My Year of Living Spiritually: A secular quest for a more soulful life / Leçons de mon année de vivre spirituellement : Une quête séculaire pour une vie plus profond - with Anne Bokma
DESCRIPTION:“The soul should always stand ajar\, ready to welcome the ecstatic experience\,” wrote the poet Emily Dickinson. Anne shares her difficult journey of leaving a fundamentalist religion as well as insights from her whirlwind year of experimenting with two dozen spiritual practices—from singing to solitude to going to a witch camp and heading out on a pilgrimage—and how they taught her to live more attentively and authentically in the world. All of us are on a spiritual journey\, yet so often we neglect this essential aspect of our lives. \n\n« L’âme doit toujours rester entrouverte\, prête à accueillir l’expérience extatique »\, a écrit la poète Emily Dickinson. Anne partage son parcours difficile de quitter une religion fondamentaliste ainsi que les aperçus de son année tourbillonnante d’expérimentation de deux douzaines de pratiques spirituelles – du chant à la solitude\, aller dans un camp de sorcières et partir en pèlerinage – et comment ils lui ont appris à vivre plus attentivement et authentiquement dans le monde. Nous sommes tous sur un chemin spirituel et pourtant si souvent nous négligeons cet aspect essentiel de notre vie. \n

SUMMARY:Embracing the Snakes / Embracing the Snakes\, with Amy Panetta
DESCRIPTION:St. Patrick has been upheld as the patron saint of Ireland\, but he has also been said to have “driven out the snakes\,” including a possible abrupt and violent overthrowing of earlier religious and spiritual practices in Ireland. Was this story even true? And\, is it possible to instead “embrace the snakes\,” in a life-affirming\, inclusive way? Come to the Sunday service on Zoom for an engaging exploration\, featuring Irish music\, readings\, and reflections with Amy Panetta and her musician friends joining us from Ireland\, the US\, and Canada. \n\nSt. Patrick est reconnu comme le saint patron de l’Irlande\, mais il aurait également « chassé les serpents\, » y compris un possible renversement brutal et violent des pratiques religieuses et spirituelles antérieures en Irlande. Cette histoire était-elle même vraie? Et\, est-il possible à la place « d’embrasser les serpents »\, d’une manière inclusive et affirmant la vie? Venez au service du dimanche sur Zoom pour une exploration engageante\, mettant en vedette de la musique irlandaise\, des lectures et des réflexions avec Amy Panetta et ses amis musiciens venus d’Irlande\, des États-Unis et du Canada. \n

SUMMARY:What does love have to do with it? / Qu'est ce que l'amour a à voir avec ça? - with Rev. Carole Martignacco
DESCRIPTION:George Sand wrote: “There is only one happiness in life: to love and be loved.” Quick now\, on this last day of February\, let’s take another careful look at this intriguing concept. Central to world religious traditions\, in contemporary culture\, it’s often misunderstood as a commodity. Yet at the heart of all life\, this longing to give and receive love can either illuminate the very corners of our being with belonging\, or by it’s absence unleash unimaginable chaos and suffering. What is this thing called LOVE? \n\nGeorge Sand a écrit: “Il n’y a qu’un seul bonheur dans la vie: aimer et être aimé.” Vite maintenant\, en ce dernier jour de février\, jetons un autre regard attentif sur ce concept intrigant. Au cœur des traditions religieuses mondiales\, dans la culture contemporaine\, il est souvent mal compris comme une marchandise. Pourtant\, au cœur de toute vie\, ce désir de donner et de recevoir de l’amour peut soit éclairer les recoins de notre être avec l’appartenance\, soit déclencher par son absence un chaos et une souffrance inimaginables. Quelle est cette chose appelée AMOUR? \n

SUMMARY:Sharing Our Faith National Service: A Faith Worth Failing For / Une foi qui vaut la peine d’échouer
DESCRIPTION:We often talk about Unitarian Universalism as a transformational faith – and yet to be transformed means to take a risk. How is it that we are averse to taking such risks when it comes to widening the circle of who we are as a community? Join Revs. Shana Lynngood and Samaya Oakley for a service that explores mistakes we’ve made and how we can learn from them to become the transformational faith we aspire to be. \n\nNous parlons souvent de l’universalisme unitaire comme d’une foi transformationnelle – et pourtant\, être transformé signifie prendre un risque. Comment sommes-nous réticents à prendre de tels risques lorsqu’il s’agit d’élargir le cercle de qui nous sommes en tant que communauté? Rejoignez Revs. Shana Lynngood et Samaya Oakley pour un service qui explore les erreurs que nous avons commises et comment nous pouvons en tirer des leçons pour devenir la foi transformationnelle à laquelle nous aspirons.
