Sunday, March 19th:
Note: Our new budget year is coming, and your pledges of expected giving will help us plan our future! See below or contact our treasurer, Bob Antweiler.
This morning, shortly following St. Patrick's Day, George Grimm-Howell used his first service with us to talk about the rich tradition in Irish culture of the lament, and its purpose in giving expression to grief, both on a personal level, and collectively, in the face of injustice. Aubrey Gogel and Lisa Sanning performed poetic readings of laments, and we heard traditional recordings that in some cases, showed that these melodies also gave rise to familiar UU hymns. (Summary by Rich Burdge)
For those who would like to keep up with our neighbors at the UU Church of Columbia, their service from this morning is available to view online:

Community Events this week:
Next Sunday, March 26th at 2 pm in their Art Gallery, Missouri River Regional Library presents an Author Talk with Patrick Murphy: "Places to Pray: Holy Sites in Catholic Missouri." Patrick Murphy has spent the past 40 years telling stories of the American heartland. A five-time Emmy Award winner, he has produced television programs for PBS< both locally and nationally, as well as documentaries and weekly series. He took a year to visit every corner of Missouri, exploring its Roman Catholic history and culture. From the grand basilicas of Missouri’s big cities to small churches in every corner of the state, the stories of generations of Catholic immigrants are set in stone. These churches endure today as monuments to the struggles and the faith of those new Americans and their descendants. In Places to Pray, Murphy’s new book, he takes readers to churches, c=shrines, convents, and monasteries throughout Missouri. He explores the architectural marvels of St. Louis and Kansas City and visits neighborhood parishes that proudly hold on to the ethnic flavors of their founders. His book is intended for readers of all faiths and walks of life who might venture into some of these places to experience realms beyond those offered by daily life. Contact Madeline Matson.
