SUMMARY:EBWA's October Program: Vampires! An exploration with Professor Kristin Bidoshi
DESCRIPTION:“Vampires”—October 30\, 6:30-9pm\, in the church dining room \nSpeaker: Kristin Bidoshi\, Professor of Russian\, Director of Russian and East European Studies\nat Union College. \nProfessor Bidoshi has long been interested in how the vampire is a reflection of cultural fears and desires—from nineteenth century East European tales to postwar American science fiction and beyond.” At our upcoming meeting\, she will trace how the image of the vampire has transformed from a terrifying Eastern European peasant belief to a polished American icon—revealing not just its story\, but also the changing fears that shape our society. — All who identify as women are invited to come to EBWA (the Evening Branch of the Women’s Alliance) to hear about this fascinating subject. \nWe will serve coffee\, tea\, and dessert before the program.  We urge you to arrive by 6:30 pm for time to socialize before the program begins at 7 pm. Following the presentation\, there will be time for questions. Networking (when each person may share something of interest with the group) will begin around 8:15\, and the meeting will end no later than 9 pm. \nWhile reservations are not required\, in order to have some idea of how many people to expect\, it would be helpful if you would email Gabrielle Reals at ellegr3@gmail.com  by Tuesday\, October 28\, to let her know you are coming.  (If you forget to do this\, we urge you to come anyway!) \nAs a reminder\, in order for us to be able to pay our speakers an honorarium\, we need your help.  Please consider subscribing by bringing a $30 check made out to EBWA to the upcoming meeting (or contact Carol Furman at cfurm13@gmail.com to learn where to send your check).  Those who have subscribed may attend the in-person meetings for free.  All others will be asked to contribute $5 toward our costs\, at the door. \nTo see the full calendar of EBWA programs for 2025-2026\, click HERE. \nLooking ahead: Our November 20 th program will feature Wendy Miller\, mediator and conflict\ncoach\, speaking about “Communication for Connection.”

SUMMARY:Ingathering Water Communion: Get on Board! Then stay for the All Congregation Picnic!
DESCRIPTION:Join UUSS for the annual Unitarian Universalist Ingathering/Water Communion worship service. \nAfter the service\, all are welcome to stay for a potluck picnic. We’ll have tables in the dining room and on the patio\, and lawn games as weather permits. \nDetails:  \nWe’re going to have our annual Ingathering on the second Sunday of September\, Sept 14th. We will celebrate our community and the beginning of a new church year together\, including a Water Communion. \nEveryone is invited to bring a small bit of water from someplace that symbolizes your summer-perhaps a local pond\, a swimming pool\, the ocean\, your own faucet or hose. We will co-mingle the precious water that we collect\, honor the water for its nourishment\, and then purify and prepare the gathered waters to be used in other rituals throughout the year. \nAfter this multigenerational service celebrating Unitarian Universalism and our religious community\, we’ll have a shared meal. Bring a potluck dish to serve 8-12 people and a card with the ingredients as we have several folks with food allergies\, needs\, as well as preferences. We look forward to seeing you and to meeting some of you who have started attending this summer! -Rev. Lynn and Rev. Wendy
