Oberlin Unitarian Universalist Fellowship

Our Chalice

Welcome to the Oberlin Unitarian Universalist Fellowship! We are glad that you have found your way to our website. It is our hope that you will not only find it easy to navigate, but that the information it contains enriches your spirit. While the website is a organ of the Fellowship, please know that the congregation for whom it speaks is a living, breathing group of spiritually alive individuals who are in love with life and dedicated to pursuing our individual quests for truth, while working for social justice and environmental responsibility. On this website you will read about what binds us together as a worshipping and working faith community, when and where we meet, and ways in which your own spiritual life can be nurtured.

We encourage you to visit our website frequently, because new information is added each month that may be of interest to you. But, we also extend an invitation for you to visit us in person. We would like to introduce ourselves to you and share how our passions for religious freedom with responsibility, mutual support, and peace and justice are not only important to our members and friends, but how they are impacting Oberlin, Ohio and Lorain county. Looking forward to seeing you soon! --Rev. Cynthia Heilman

What's New This Month?

DRUMMING JOURNEYERS

meets monthly to journey and share insights. Although the Drummer, Carol Wilde, has moved, the group is continuing. They will gather the first Friday of the month, April 3, at 181 W. College St. Shamanic journeying is a time-honored tool for accessing an altered state of consciousness, much like a dream state, for spiritual guidance and healing. The altered state is achieved by listening to a rapid drumbeat, approximately 4 beats per second, which induces theta waves in the brain.

The UU SKEPTICS DISCUSSION GROUP

is a new OUUF Adult Religious Education Activity. The group grows out of the small group ministry approach, but has a clear focus. Participants will share their philosophical paths, and specific topics will be discussed, such as the effect on our thinking of Darwin's theory of natural selection. Meetings are held the second and fourth Wednesdays of the month, at 4:00 PM. For location and more information, contact Barbara Fuchsman.
