ZOOM – “Who Do We Choose to Be” seminar led by Rev. Manish

 The world around us has changed dramatically over the past decade-plus. We have witnessed the spiraling impacts of climate devastation, increasingly deep divisions in the political-civic life of the United States, endemic and harmful social and economic injustices, climate and economic-based population migration, wars of greed and conquest, the rise of authoritarianism and anti-democratic trends, the threat and reality of genocide, the mass extinction of flora and fauna, and so on. In the midst of all these very real and competing needs – what are we to do…?? It can feel like anything that one of us can personally do is small compared to the massive needs of the time we are living in.

If you have felt this way, YOU ARE NOT ALONE.

Join Rev. Manish in a congregational year-long monthly seminar dedicated to creating community and reflection around the needs of our time. Inspired by Margaret J. Wheatley’s framing, we will explore together the question “Who Do We Choose to Be?” during this time of uncertainty and societal breakdown. What do we choose to build up, nurture, and dedicate ourselves to in the midst of all that is happening?

DATES/TIMINGS:
All sessions are on Wednesday evenings from 6:30pm-8:30pm (Eastern) on zoom.
