SUMMARY:Confirmation Class
DESCRIPTION:Sundays 11:15-12:30 in the Church of Youth \n\n\n\nConfirmation is a vital ministry where youth are supported throughout their spiritual  \n\n\n\njourney. The program encourages students to connect with God\, the Bible\, the Church\, and caring adults.  Participants may join a confirmation class anytime between their 8th grade year and their senior year of high school.  \n\n\n\nStudent learning will center around classroom time\, hands-on service activities\, field trips\, and yearly summer mission trips. Students are expected to attend regularly\, participate in worship\, complete service hours and meet with mentors. Their final activity will be the creation of their own faith statement prior to the rite of confirmation in worship. For more info\, email Lynne Carroll (lynne@haumc.org).

SUMMARY:Beyond Land Acknowledgement: Repairing Relationships with Indigenous People
DESCRIPTION:Ann Carlson will be leading a Lenten discussion class that begins on Wednesday evenings starting on February 25. Join the six-week class to learn how the Christian-crafted Doctrine of Discovery shaped the development of the United States\, promoting the theft of indigenous lands\, the destruction of Indigenous cultures\, and killing of people. \n\n\n\nLearn how writing a land acknowledgement can help begin the process of repairing relationships with indigenous people through a process of decolonization. While it’s not required\, participants interested in joining are strongly encouraged to attend the first discussion session and continue attending each week throughout the six-week class. The discussions taking place through this series are designed to build on one another\, so joining partway through is not recommended. \n\n\n\nWe are politely asking for your registration for this class! If you are interested in joining\, please RSVP by emailing Ann Carlson (carlsonaj99@gmail.com).

SUMMARY:Friday Coffee and Connection with Pastor Elizabeth 
DESCRIPTION:Join the Zoom Meeting\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin Pastor Elizabeth for a weekly time of sharing conversation\, coffee\, and topical study. \n\n\n\nCome join us for an opportunity to find your unique path to spiritual growth led by Pastor Elizabeth.  \n\n\n\nFriday mornings we meet in the Longfellow Room from 10:00 – 11:15. There is coffee and a fine group of humans to enjoy. \n\n\n\nJoin Zoom Meetinghttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/88019904564?pwd=14KrqqzBCcIU0i60dbtqpI5N9z4dae.1 \n\n\n\nMeeting ID: 880 1990 4564Passcode: 344849 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOriginal Blessing by Matthew Fox  \n\n\n\nIn this book Matthew Fox lays out a whole new direction for Christianity—a direction that is in fact very ancient and very grounded in Jewish thinking (the fact that Jesus was a Jew is often neglected by Christian theology). Fox believes that the teaching of original sin—which Jesus never heard of (no Jew has) has served empire-builders very well but that original blessing—the awareness of the goodness of creation—must take precedence.  The implications are profound for psychological as well as sociological and ecological transformation.  Oppressed people everywhere will recognize the difference.   \n\n\n\nFox lays out the ancient but often neglected (and sometimes condemned) creation spiritual tradition in Original Blessing.  The sacredness of creation and of our role in it is a starting point—what the mystical tradition calls the Via Positiva\, the path of joy and delight\, awe and gratitude.  The Via Negativa is the path of darkness and silence and also of suffering and of letting go and letting be.  The Via Creativa is the path of creativity.  And the Via Transformativa is the path of justice and compassion.  All four paths constitute an adult spiritual journey.  Each feeds the others.   \n\n\n\nFox also lays out 27 themes that interweave among the Four Paths.  For Fox\, all of us are mystics and all are prophets\, and he shows the journey of both in this groundbreaking and revolutionary book that deliberately rejects the 3 paths of purgation\, illumination and union that fail to put justice or creativity at the heart of the spiritual journey.  In this revolutionary work\, Fox shows how Christianity once celebrated beauty\, compassion\, justice\, and creativity and provided a path of ecstatic connection with all creation.

SUMMARY:Coffee with Christy
DESCRIPTION:Longfellow Room \n\n\n\nEnjoy coffee\, connections\, and contemplation with Rev. Christy Key our new Executive Pastor! \n\n\n\nThis monthly gathering offers a quiet\, grounded space to pause\, listen\, and reconnect with God and one another. Each session will introduce a gentle spiritual practice drawn from Sacred Rhythms by Ruth Haley Barton—such as reflection\, guided silence\, or Lectio Divina—creating room to notice our longings and attend to God’s presence. No prior experience is needed; all are welcome. \n\n\n\nStructure & Flow: Each gathering stands on its own\, so participants are welcome to drop in at any point\, though regular attendance may deepen the experience over time. Sessions are lightly guided rather than discussion-heavy\, centered on scripture and contemplative prayer practices rather than open conversation or debate. Expect a calm\, reflective atmosphere with space for silence\, personal reflection\, and prayer.
