Fall 2009

Sacred Play:
Creating Justice for Women

October 14-18, 2009

After Spiraling into The Center and claiming our Power, now is the time for UUWomenSpirit members to embrace Sacred Play, step out into the world and empower women of all walks of life as they in turn enrich and empower us!

We know "She Changes Everything She Touches and Everything She Touches Changes." How do we go about sharing that with the larger community?

To paraphrase Arlo Guthrie, "If one person a day, just one person a day, walks in and says, 'She Changes Everything She Touches, Everything She Touches Changes' and walks out. You know, if one person, just one person does it they may think (s)he's really sick . . .

(If) three people do it, three, can you imagine, three people walking in, singing a bar of 'She Changes Everything She Touches' and walking out? They may think it's an organization.

And can you, can you imagine fifty (Women) a day, I said fifty ... a day walking in singing a bar of 'She Changes Everything She Touches' and walking out. . . .

Friends, they may think it's a movement!

Gathering - October 16-18, 2009
The Gathering begins on Friday evening as our numbers and energy swell to as many as 120 women. For Saturday, you may choose either an all-day, or two half-day workshops covering a spectrum of subjects. We will again gather for meals, worship rituals, and a wide variety of evening activities. The Gathering registration begins at 3:00pm on Friday afternoon, followed by Social Hour at 5:00 to give the 100 plus women a chance to introduce themselves to one another. One of our most popular Saturday evening activities is the traditional Saturday night Womenspirit Cabaret. Provide entertainment or just join in the applause. Be it poetry, song, music, dance, or performance art, all are welcome in this safe, fun, supportive environment.
