The Right Stuff: What we own, Who we are and What it All Means

The things we own tell us a lot about ourselves. What does our stuff say about us? What can we learn from what we keep or discard? What spiritual and moral issues are connected to the boxes in our closets? Our UU principles can guide us as we collect, downsize, move, and manage our possessions.

 

On March 24, 2020, Gov Kat Brown issues Executive Order 20-12, prohibiting all non-essential public gatherings. In order to remain in compliance with both the spirit and letter of the law, for the foreseeable future, UUFM will be presenting our services on-line using the extremely popular teleconferencing service know as Zoom. For more information and to register for this upcoming service, send an email to zoom-guest@macuuf.org.

Speaker Bio

Kathleen LaFlamme has been a Unitarian Universalist since 2014. Her lifelong Wiccan spiritual practice draws from many of the same sources as Unitarian Universalism, including mythology, Jungian archetypes, ancient and modern philosophy, and respect for the interdependent web of life. At the Unitarian Universalist Community Church of Washington County in Hillsboro, she volunteers on the Worship Team and helps to lead their UU Pagans group. When she’s not contemplating life’s mysteries, she works as a technical writer and moonlights as a costume designer and seamstress. In her spare time, she reads voraciously and swims as often as she can.
