World events e-discussion for Canadian UUs

November 14th, 2016 . by William Baylis

The CUC’s April Hope announced another teleconference at 3 PM on Wednesday, Nov. 16, 2016, for Canadian UUs wanting some reasoned community time after the world events of last week. She wrote:

“If you are still feeling the impact of recent world events, gather with other Canadian UU’s for reflection and support. After the US election results this week, we gathered as a community online, to share and listen to one another’s feelings and concerns. People appreciated this and have asked for another time to come together. CUC staff will once again provide questions and readings to facilitate this time of reflection.
“We will gather, next Wednesday, November 16 at 3pm Eastern, please see Zoom link below.  You do not need to have been on the previous call to join in this time. Please share widely.
“We share common principles, may they help ground us during this time of change.
Topic: Check-in for Canadian UU Community
