Date with Death Club
February 22, 2025 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
Conference Room & Zoom at https://tinyurl.com/488xwtjdDate with Death Club Sat., Feb. 22, 10am-Noon
Conference Room & Zoom at https://tinyurl.com/ayw3cu5z
Do you hope to face our human mortality with less fear and more curiosity? With less euphemism and more reality? With less conformity and more creativity? If that sounds like you or who you hope to become, welcome to Date with Death Club, where we explore topics of aging, death, and dying. Attend one, some, or all sessions.
This month’s topic is “Writing Your Own Obituary.” Just like planning your own memorial service, you can spend time now putting together your obituary. We’ll explore both traditional obituaries (the kind you’re likely to find in a newspaper) and more story-based obituaries that can help us connect with our own deeper purpose in whatever time we have left on this earth. We’ll use a specially developed worksheet to guide us that you can take home.

Sacred Rest ~ Virtual
February 23, 2025 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm
On ZoomSacred Rest
In person Sun., Feb. 9, 4pm
Zoom Sun., Feb. 23, 4pm
You were not just born to center your entire existence on work and labor. You were born to heal, to grow, to be of service to yourself and community, to practice, to experiment, to create, to have space, to dream, and to connect.
~ Tricia Hersey in Rest Is Resistance
You deserve time to rest. Come and practice in community. In-person Sacred Rest on Feb. 9 will be in the Senior High Youth Room. Bring water, a journal, and/or blanket if you wish. On fourth Sundays (next on Feb. 23), the Central IL Religious Educators will facilitate a guided rest experience on Zoom for our four congregations in Bloomington-Normal, Champaign-Urbana, Peoria, and Springfield. Create a comfortable nest with a blanket or pillow, grab some water, and bring a journal if you wish. We’ll draw from the work of Tricia Hersey. To receive the link, email Jesi at DLRE@PeoriaUUChurch.org or sign up here https://uuchurch.flocknote.com/signup/192803.
