SUMMARY:Sunday Service: Risking Belief
DESCRIPTION:There’s a great old science fiction book in which the existence of God is proven by science. The struggle of setting aside unbelief when it’s no longer serving us is as real as the struggle to believe something that doesn’t feel true. How do we wrestle with belief\, doubt\, skepticism\, and faith? \n“If you stumble about believability\, what are you living for? Love is hard to believe\, ask any lover. Life is hard to believe\, ask any scientist. God is hard to believe\, ask any believer. What is your problem with hard to believe?” ― Yann Martel\, Life of Pi \nMonthly Theme: Risking \nAttend in person or watch live or recorded on our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@roguevalleyunitarianuniver8871 \nhttps://rvuuf.org/

SUMMARY:Beekman Bank Museum tours
DESCRIPTION:You are invited to “Step Behind the Counter” of the oldest financial institution in the Pacific Northwest—Jacksonville’s 1863 Beekman Bank Museum—when Historic Jacksonville\, Inc. opens the museum for summer tours. \nEstablished as a “gold dust” office in 1856\, it was the first “bank” north of San Francisco. \nScheduled 2025 “banking hours” are 11am to 3 pm\, Saturdays and Sundays\, from May 24 through August 31. The Beekman Bank Museum is located at 110 W. California Street (the corner of California and North 3rd streets) in Jacksonville. Guests can interact with costumed docents sharing stories of late 19th Century banking practices\, gold shipping\, and handshake deals; step behind the counter and peer in drawers containing old checks\, stage schedules\, and paperwork; and enter the vault that stored millions in gold! \nVisitors can spend as much or as little time as they like—although we suggest they allow at least 30 minutes. Tours are FREE\, but donations are encouraged since all monies go towards the preservation and maintenance of this historic legacy! \nThe original bank was established in 1856 as a “gold dust” office. (If we’re factual\, it was a safe.) Cornelius Beekman had come to Jacksonville in 1854 as an express rider between Yreka and Jacksonville carrying newspaper\, mail\, parcels\, and gold over the Siskiyous. When his employer’s firm failed\, he established Jacksonville’s Beekman’s Express and his gold dust office. In 1863 he became Jacksonville’s Wells Fargo agent and constructed the Beekman Bank. \nDuring Jacksonville’s heyday as the governmental\, commercial\, and social hub of Southern Oregon in the late 1800s\, the Beekman’s Bank saw over $40 million in gold cross its counters—equivalent to over $1 billion today! The current 1863 structure is the only commercial wooden building on California Streeet to survive Jacksonville’s many fires. It has been preserved intact as a museum since Cornelius Beekman\, the wealthiest and most prominent of Jacksonville’s pioneers\, locked the doors in 1915. \nAdditional information is available at 541-245-3650; info@historicjacksonville.org; and www.historicjacksonville.org/behind-the-counter/.

SUMMARY:Hillary Tiefer discusses her new novel The Secret Ranch
DESCRIPTION:After a journalist takes an interest in eighty-five-year-old Jean Warner’s experience as an enemy code interceptor during World War II\, Jean reflects upon her past\, which was often challenging and painful. \nJean relives her experiences during the war when she was in the Women’s Army Corps and did grueling secret work deciphering enemy Morse Code at Two Rock Ranch Station\, near Petaluma\, California. During this time\, she has a challenging friendship with another WAC\, pursues a rocky relationship with a soldier\, and constantly fears for the lives of her two brothers who are fighting in the war. As difficult as it has been to dwell on her past\, Jean eventually realizes that she has acquired insights that have helped her understand herself and strengthened her relationship with her troubled daughter\, who has assumed that her mother conducted her life perfectly. \nHillary Tiefer has a PhD in English and has taught at Southern Oregon University and other colleges in the Pacific Northwest. Her short stories have been published in Descant\, Red Rock Review\, Mission at Tenth\, Blue Moon Literary Review\, Gray Sparrow Journal\, Poetica Magazine\, Poydras Review\, Crack the Spine Literary Magazine\, JuxtaProse\, The Literary Nest\, Smoky Blue Literature and Art Magazine\, Five on the Fifth\, The Opiate\, The Manifest-Station\, Pennsylvania Literary Journal\, and Minerva Rising Press’s The Keeping Room

SUMMARY:RVML presents : Maturing Our Relationship to Technology with Beni Oren
DESCRIPTION:“Finding attentional sovereignty in an age of digital distraction.” \nThis is the tale of our time. As implied by the name of the presentation\, we currently have an immature relationship to technology that is guided by naivete\, selfishness\, and addiction. Whether it’s weapons of mass destruction or distraction\, they are expressions of our collective lack of wisdom. \nTechnology is an inextricable part of humanity\, and we must learn to have a healthier relationship with it. We are being tested to see if we deserve continuance in the Universe. We can only save the world and pass one down worth living in if we cultivate the love and wisdom needed to be responsible stewards of our godlike technology. \nCome and learn about what technology is and what its optimal role in human civilization could look like. We need as many people as possible to have these conversations. \nWhat are the origins of technology/ why do we have tech\, and all the other species don’t?\nHow technology affects society in complex and unseen ways\nThe rise of the internet\, the iPhone\, and social media\nThe intricacies of how our phones damage our mental and physical health\nWhat conditions make us susceptible to addiction\, vs what conditions make us more sovereign?\nWhat role should technology play in a healthy and harmonious civilization?\nSome tips for how to find technological balance\n“We have paleolithic emotions\, medieval institutions\, and godlike technology.” – E.O. Wilson. \nBeni Oren is a writer\, speaker\, and facilitator. His facilitation skills range from meditation to qigong to intentional communication practices. He is a systems theorist and social philosopher concerned with designing a regenerative civilization. He is a culture architect interested in seeing a world where we collectively and harmoniously reach our highest potential. \nHe grew up on the beautiful beaches of Southern California. His journey began with a transformative meditation retreat at 19 years old\, which opened his eyes to the great mystery and inherent beauty within all of life. Since then\, he has lived his life seeking to understand global suffering and how we can create the more beautiful world our hearts know is possible.

SUMMARY:Climate Action Workshop Series – Composting
DESCRIPTION:Some ten years ago\, spurred into action by students at Ashland High School\, among others\, Mayor John Stromberg and the Ashland City Council establishment of a citizen committee assigned to develop a climate plan for the city. \nUltimately titled the Ashland Climate and Energy Action Plan (CEAP)\, this was passed unanimously by the city council in 2017. The goals of the plan were to reduce community greenhouse gas emissions and prepare the city to be more resilient to climate change impacts. As the Ashland Climate Collaborative notes on their website: “Eight years in\, the CEAP is still a great foundation for reaching our climate goals.” \nAs the CEAP itself states: “This Climate and Energy Action Plan is only the beginning of an ongoing process.” Regrettably\, over the intervening years\, as families relocate\, residential awareness of the CEAP seems to have dwindled to the point that many are completely unaware of its existence. \nIn order to address this lack of awareness\, Southern Oregon Climate Action Now Executive Director Danial Scotton\, assisted by members of the SOCAN Ashland Climate Action Team\, have established a series of open public workshops during which aspects of the CEAP are discussed in relation to CEAP goals\, the current status of action\, and what needs to be done. \nThis will be held in the Gresham Room of Ashland Public Library on September 24 from 6:00 – 7:30 in the Gresham Room of the Ashland Public Library.
