The Five Big Theological Questions for Everyone

UU Sheridan member and UUA Mountain District Board President Victor Ashear summarizes and shares his personal beliefs about the five big theological questions “…as a way to evaluate where many UU’s stand now theologically compared to other faiths…”: 1. Who am I? 2. How do I know (what I know)? 3. Who or what is in charge (of the universe)? 4. What is my purpose in life (or How am I saved)? and 5. What does my death mean?

Annual Burning Bowl Service

Don Benson will lead the annual UU Casper Burning Bowl service, a ritual to bid farewell to the old year, and welcome the new: reflecting on and releasing the areas of our lives that no longer serve our highest good: we look forward, creating goals that will advance our journey in the coming year.

During this ritual, all are invited to write down on a piece of paper what they wish to release from the past year. They then come forward to burn the paper as an act of symbolic farewell. Participants will then write down their wishes for their lives in the new year, and place wishes in sealed, self-addressed envelopes, which will be kept private, then mailed to everyone during the summer of 2018.
