I love money. I love everything about it. I bought some pretty good stuff. Got me a $300 pair of socks. Got a fur sink. An electric dog polisher. A gasoline powered turtleneck sweater. And, of course, I bought some dumb stuff, too. ~ Steve Martin
A nickel ain't worth a dime anymore. ~ Yogi Berra
Do you think about money all of the time? Wondering how to make more of it, spend it or save it? Do you worry about having enough? Do you even worry about what to do with too much of it? Often money and worry take up a lot of space inside of us. But we would rather not talk about it!
If there is a phrase or word that describes your feelings about money, reply to this email with it. Your words might just end up in this Sunday's sermon! And the conversation will begin.
Join us this Sunday at 10:30 am!
The Wisdom Path Part I: Money and Me
Rev. Virginia Jarocha-Ernst
This year's sermon series revolves around our attitudes about money. Today, we start with the personal. What are your patterns with earning, spending, needs and wants? We are likely to find out that money is more emotional than the numbers would suggest.
A discussion circle will gather in the East Room at
Noon after the service.
Music by Elaine Held, Liz Tortorella, Dan and Louise Chernosky.
Then join us for...
The Wi$dom Path: Money, Spirit and Life
led by
Joan Farkas, Stacey Abate
&
Rev. Virginia Jarocha-Ernst
Saturdays 10am - Noon at UUCMC
In the workshops, participants will build awareness of their own "money story" and explore their own attitudes and experiences with money and the ways in which money connects us with others, including issues of classism and economic justice. We'll examine money issues in congregational life, delving into ways to align our faith and values with our financial ways of being.
