    Sunday Service – “Committing to Community”

    UUFCC - Sanctuary 780 Waupelani Drive, State College, PA, United States

    Join us for Pledge Sunday - March 24, 2024.  This year we are "Committing to Community."  Our home at UUFCC makes it possible for this to happen, because we know that together we can do more than what we can do alone!  What does commitment look like?  What does where we put our money say about us?  Why do we have to pledge anyway?  Rev. Tracy Sprowls will lead us for this very special service.

    Sunday Service – “Finding Focus”

    UUFCC - Sanctuary 780 Waupelani Drive, State College, PA, United States

    ...with Rev. Tracy Sprowls.  Attention spans are shorter, young children exposed to screens are less verbal, and teenagers struggle with mental illness or isolation. Is technology and social media the culprit? How does technology change our brains? How does it affect our ability to relate as humans? What about our spiritual lives? This sermon idea comes from Peter Kemper who bought the sermon at the 2023 Service Auction.

    UUFCC - Sanctuary 780 Waupelani Drive, State College, PA, United States

    ...with Penny Eifrig. Scams are becoming more and more prevalent, yet people are still often too embarrassed to talk about it. But a scam is a violent crime, not unlike getting mugged. What can we learn about ourselves when we begin to learn about how your reptile brain functions, than when manipulated, can make you (and others) do things that seem inconceivable? Penny Eifrig shares her recent experience with amygdala hijack, and how it can explain many behaviors in today’s world.
