Think Like a Stoic: Ancient Wisdom for Today’s World (September 01, 2026)

Tue, 01 Sep 2026 23:00:00 GMT

On September 1 at 7:00 p.m., the Comparative Religions class starts a twenty-five week course - Think Like a Stoic: Ancient Wisdom for Today’s World, taught by Professor Massimo Pigliucci at the City University of New York. Distilled to its essence, the ancient Greco-Roman philosophy known as Stoicism is a philosophy of personal betterment.

This course endeavors to be an enlightening introduction to the basics of Stoic philosophy and ways to incorporate its lessons into your own life.
For example, the Stoic understanding of ethics was far broader than the study of right and wrong, encompassing questions concerning one’s goals and one’s relationship to other people.
Also, the Stoics felt that logic was another requirement of a well-lived life, because good thinking helps protect us from living according to nonsensical notions.

This course includes plenty of exercises you can use to retrain your mind to take on a more Stoic view of your life and the world around you. You’ll come away with an incredible wealth of knowledge about the history and principles of one of the most enduring philosophies of life—but you’ll also be on your way to a more meaningful life for yourself.

Join us for one or many sessions. For more details and for the Zoom link, look in the weekly Bulletin or use our Contact Us form.

Friendly Conversations during Potluck (September 20, 2026)

Sun, 20 Sep 2026 16:15:00 GMT

The Change Group invites you to participate in “Friendly Conversations” during some of our monthly potlucks.

The aim is to foster deeper connections and strengthen our community's ability to engage in difficult conversations in a safe and intimate setting.
We are bringing together small groups of Friends that will meet during our monthly potlucks with this essential goal: to enhance our skills in dialogue and deepen our relationships as a Meeting.
By creating an intimate space, Friends can deepen relationships and strengthen the sense of community while practicing and applying essential conversation skills.

Join us at today's potluck lunch. Each month, there will be simple queries to guide our conversation.

If you are interested in participating or would like to know more, please contact Michael W. (see your Directory) or use our Contact Us Form. We look forward to embarking on this journey of deeper connection and stronger community dialogue with you!

Think Like a Stoic: Ancient Wisdom for Today’s World (November 03, 2026)

Wed, 04 Nov 2026 00:00:00 GMT

This course endeavors to be an enlightening introduction to the basics of Stoic philosophy and ways to incorporate its lessons into your own life.
For example, the Stoic understanding of ethics was far broader than the study of right and wrong, encompassing questions concerning one’s goals and one’s relationship to other people.
Also, the Stoics felt that logic was another requirement of a well-lived life, because good thinking helps protect us from living according to nonsensical notions.

By creating an intimate space, Friends can deepen relationships and strengthen the sense of community while practicing and applying essential conversation skills.

Join us at today's potluck lunch. Each month, there will be simple queries to guide our conversation.

BFM Christmas Pageant & Celebration (December 13, 2026)

Sun, 13 Dec 2026 17:00:00 GMT

The annual BFM Christmas Pageant will be held at the rise of meeting (noon). This wonderful holiday tradition features performances by our First Day School students and a visiting orchestra. Religious Education will also host a toy drive. Please join in our efforts by bringing unwrapped toys, games, or books to the Pageant to be distributed to children in need.

Refreshments will follow the Christmas Program, and the Fellowship & Hospitality committee would greatly appreciate your contributions! We are expecting a large turnout, so savory finger foods, holiday cookies, and other snacks will be warmly welcomed. Please bring your offerings to the Groome building by 11am on December 13.

Since we will not have access to the kitchen, please prepare food at home to be in ready-to-serve, bite-sized portions. For ease of setup, square & rectangular serving containers work best, as table space will be limited. We have some trays available to rearrange the food if needed. Fellowship & Hospitality also welcomes help with setting up the food and beverages.
