We are collecting household goods for The Road Home, which

discussing other topics.
Our current art display features selected photos from previous
Prairie Retreats.
Benefit Allied Neighborhood: Photo note cards are back! Check

Partners.
MOSES Movie Night at Prairie: Please join MOSES for the film
"Untouchable" by David Feige at Prairie's Meeting House on the
evening of Friday, November 16. From IMDB: "After discovering his
daughter has been sexually abused, the most powerful lobbyist in
Florida pushes the toughest sex offender laws in the county, with
surprising and troublesome consequences." This film takes the
viewer to an uncomfortable place with stories from abuse survivors,
as well as stories from those who have been labeled as
offenders.
Prairie UU Society Bond of Union
We, the members of Prairie, wish to associate ourselves together
in a religious community which affirms that we
share a common humanity, that we need one another, and that our
futures are inescapably bound together. Together
we would expand our intellectual horizons, enrich our sensory
experiences, and deepen our emotional sensitivities.
We would sharpen our ethical awareness and broaden our sense of
social responsibility. We would stand tall in our
quest for integrity of life, yet not at others' expense. As the
prairie stretches out until it becomes one with the sky, let us
reach out to touch and be one with the natural world, and with
one another.
