Upcoming Sunday Services
January 8, 2012: Compassion and Connection
Julie Nelson and Julie Nuttleman
“At any given time today in America,” says American writer, artist and activist Robert Alan Silverstein, “there are about half a million people who are ‘homeless’ — they don’t have a ‘permanent, safe, decent, affordable place to live,’ . . . and many of them are women and children.” Julie Nelson and Julie Nuttleman will address the prevalence of homelessness in La Crosse and programs designed to address the needs of homeless individuals and families.
Julie Nelson is public relations and development director at the Salvation Army in La Crosse. She recently “survived” her second Christmas with the organization. Julie Nuttleman is a social worker with the Aging and Disabilities Resource Center of Western Wisconsin. She is currently a co-chair of the La Crosse County Homeless Coalition and a board member with the La Crosse Warming Center.
January 15, 2012: Moral Vision and Courage for This Moment in History
Michael Brown and Curtis Miller, La Crosse Leaders of Advocating, Mobilizing, Organizing in Solidarity (AMOS)
In honor of the birthday of the Reverend Martin Luther King Jr., AMOS leaders, president Michael Brown and organizer Rev. Curtis Miller will apply King’s vision to the contemporary “Occupy Movement.”
AMOS is a powerful coalition of faith communities working to deepen relationships within and among congregations and empower people to act together to build a more just and healthy society.
January 22, 2012: Long Term Care: A Personal. Family and Societal Issue
Pat Killeen member of the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of La Crosse
Killeen will discuss the growing social and personal concern about caring for the frail elderly and persons with disabilities in light of the growing population to be served, the prospective shrinking workforce, and government financial pressures, as well as the tremendous stress on family relations and family caregivers related to the care of elderly and disabled loved ones. Killeen has worked on the development of long term care and hospice programs since the 1970s in the automobile industry and in Wisconsin.
January 29, 2012: UU Journeys in Servant Leadership
Kim Cobb and Jenny King, members of the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of La Crosse
What drew a couple of Unitarian Universalists to study Servant Leadership? What is it? What have they gotten out of it, and where is it going? Is Servant Leadership the model for a successful, holistic economy where everyone is served? Jenny King received a master’s degree in Servant Leadership at Viterbo University. Kim Cobb is a student in the program now. They’ll share their reflections on the Servant Leadership philosophy.
Street parking near the fellowship is available one block south (on Madison) and across West Avenue (on Cameron, one way east-bound).
