Events for week of November 30, 2025

with Rev. Tracy Sprowls. We explore what is normal for our lives and for the nation. We’ll look at what normal means- is there a “normal” or is that just a setting on the dryer? Also, we keep hearing the term “normalizing” in the news. What does that look like in today’s context?

Each week our kids gather to explore our world in light of our UU values. Pre-K/K friends will engage in guided exploration of various topics with their wonderful teachers, Sue Smith and Rocky Landers, downstairs in Room D.

1st through 5th grade kids are learning our values through the monthly congregational themes, and have a bi-monthly social justice book project and activity. In services led by Rev. Tracy Sprowls, children remain in the Sanctuary until the Wisdom Lesson, then go downstairs to class. In multigenerational services, they stay for the entire service.

For elementary ages, led by Karen Maynard.

Experience communal drumming, learn various African rhythms and have fun. Drums are provided but bring your own if you wish!

The Justice Singers of Centre County are an open community gathering for those who find power, healing, and connection through song in the face of injustice. The group sings songs of protest, resilience, and hope, drawing from resources like Rise Up Singing. Participants are encouraged to bring themselves, a friend, and an instrument if they like, but no experience is required—just a willingness to lift your voice. The circle also explores opportunities to sing at local actions and events, such as the May Day Strong Day of Action, Pride, and other protests.

There will be a celebration of life for Valerie Nisbet at the Foxdale Meeting room on the second floor across from the Library. Her obituary can be read here.

Meet at UUFCC to then caravan to a tree farm for the kids to pick out a tree and set it up in the sanctuary! Followed by pizza and fellowship.
