Come, come, whoever you are! Please join us for the Dances of Universal Peace @ Concord UU, an alternative worship service, held the third Sundays of each month from 7 - 9 PM. Mark your calendar with the following dates for the Dances of Universal Peace: February 19, March 18, April 15, May 20 and June 17, 2012. 

The Dances of Universal Peace are based in mantras from many world religions. Walking practice, prayer, sound current vibration, and gentle full body movement create an atmosphere of heart centered peace. The Dances of Universal Peace are lead by Sarah-Elizabeth Whitcomb and Jane Jenaabi Finlay. We have musical support with guitar, harp, flute, recorder and drum. Bring your beginner self. All mantras and dance movements will be shared with interpretation. 

The Chapel will be open a half hour prior to beginning in order to allow for centering time for the leaders and musicians. All are welcome to join us as we connect and create space together. Bring yourself, an open heart and a friend to the circle!  

For more information please contact Sarah-Elizabeth Whitcomb at sarah_elizabeth@me.com or 603 365-0852 cell or Rev. Michael Leuchtenberger at michael@concorduu.org or 603 410-4830. 

All church members and friends are invited to attend our Annual Meeting in Fellowship Hall after the worship service.  Members are eligible to vote on our 2012-13 budget and other important issues.  Annual Meeting happens in lieu of our regular social hour, and a light lunch of bread, cheese and fruit will be served.  Childcare will be available in Room 8/9.

RE Annual Meeting during class time

“When We Listen,” Rev. Michael Leuchtenberger
When we listen, good things happen. Debates turn into dialog, conflicts are transformed, and the need for help will be noticed. Yet listening takes time. Listening takes practice. And listening requires kindness and compassion.
