Four Agreements Series
Jan. 8 – Pt. 1 Be Impeccable With Your Word
Being impeccable means “without sin.” “A sin is anything that you do which goes against yourself. When you are impeccable, you take responsibility for your actions, but you do not judge or blame yourself.” Being impeccable with your word is much more than "Be honest." This is more like "be thoughtful about your speech, use your speech to build love and community rather than to tear it down, do not gossip, and do not speak negatively about yourself.
Jan. 15 – Pt. 2 Don't Take Anything Personally
In the words of Ruiz "Speak with integrity. Say only what you mean. Avoid using the word to speak against yourself or to gossip about others."
Jan. 22 – Pt. 3 Don't Make Assumptions
To have clear communication, we are called to move through our fear and stop making assumptions. Imagine what your life would be like if you started communicating from “I don’t know.” and started saying "I don’t understand. Can you help me get more clarity?" or "What do you mean by that?" or "How do you feel about that? What do you think?"
Jan. 29 - Always Do Your Best
Under any circumstance, always do your best, no more and no less. But keep in mind that your best is never going to be the same from one moment to the next. Everything is alive and changing all the time, so your best will sometimes be high quality, and other time it will not be as good.

Living Life in Love ~ February Series with Rev. Jude
In February we are going to practice living life in love. The Sufi poet Rumi has written volumes on this topic, so each week his writing will inspire us. Wherever you are in your love affair with life, there will be something for you here this month.
Feb. 12 – “Learning to Love”
Many of Rumi’s poems were directed to the Ultimate Beloved, God, and that will be our focus today. Here is his poem that inspires us: “In your light I learn how to love. In your beauty, how to make poems. You dance inside my chest where no one sees you, but sometimes I do, and that sight becomes this art.”
Feb. 19 - “Inside Out Loving”
Rumi wrote, “You were born with potential. You were born with goodness and trust. You were born with ideals and dreams. You were born with greatness. You were born with wings. You are not meant for crawling, so don't. You have wings. Learn to use them and fly.” Today, we learn how to use our wings and, in that, we find Love within!
February 26- “Getting Wise to Love”
As we bring our month’s theme to a close, we have two Rumi quotes: “Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.” “Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself.”
This is some deep wisdom from Rumi. What stands in your way of falling in love with Life, totally and completely? We will make that discovery, release the barriers, and activate our innate wisdom.
Masks are optional in our building.
Placards for seats around you are available to allow you to social distance while in our sanctuary.
Thank you for keeping each other safe!
