October 2025 Services and Events

Sunday, Nov. 9 – Service w/Dennis Peters, “Exceptional: Are You?”
We’ve heard the word “Exceptional,” or “Exceptionalism,” for a long time now. Usually it is in the context of the United States, and tries to explain why we’re so much better than the rest of the world. A political message.
That is not the conversation today. This time we’re taking a look at ourselves. Am I exceptional? Do I have something in me that defines me as exceptional? If so, compared to what, or to whom? How did (or do) we become exceptional? Is it inherent? A gift of our birth? Is it something we earn?
Sunday, Nov. 16 – Joe Plouff, is a Menomonie resident and former Wisconsin state assemblyman for the 29th Assembly District. He served in the Assembly from 1997 to 2005. His presentation will focus on Politics and Civil Discourse.
Sunday, Nov. 23 – Service w/Dennis Peters, “Let’s Talk About Giving Thanks”
At least once a year we should consider what it means to be thankful. And what better time than the Thanksgiving holiday? For many of us it means getting together with friends and/or family. Sitting down to a large meal. Engaging in pleasant conversation (or our best effort at it!).
For other folks that doesn’t always happen, either because we choose a day of solitude, or because life puts us in that position. Let’s discuss it, and come participate in this our annual day of thanks!
Sunday, Nov. 30 – No Service. Happy Thanksgiving!
