SUMMARY:Rothko Chapel's MLK Birthday Celebration
DESCRIPTION:Coinciding with the Chapel’s annual observance of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King\, Jr.’s birthday on January 15\, 2022\, the program opens with a performance of and discussion about music central to the US Civil Rights Movement. The Community Music Center of Houston Scott Joplin Chamber Orchestra conducted by Dr. Anne Lundy will share a selection of music central to Dr. King’s transformative leadership and Black Americans’ historic and contemporary protests for equity. Dr. Shana L. Redmond\, scholar of music\, race and politics\, will discuss the broader history surrounding the role of music in activism in the U.S.\, the importance of music in Rev. King’s life\, and the strategic use of music within the Civil Rights Movement.\n\nThe Rothko Chapel started the annual MLK Birthday Celebration in 1979 to connect the contemporary implications of Dr. King’s legacy to the ongoing struggle for civil and human rights\, captured by artist Barnett Newman’s Broken Obelisk. This sculpture\, located on the plaza adjacent to the Chapel\, is dedicated to Dr. King.

SUMMARY:Faithful Resilience: A Study on Climate Resilience for Faith Communities
DESCRIPTION:Faithful Resilience is a six-part weekly study on climate resilience for faith communities. The climate crisis has arrived. Faith communities must not only react\, but also prepare. Over the last decade\, hurricanes have intensified\, wildfires have burnt stronger\, and heat waves have baked our cities. These events can only be expected to get worse in the next decades. Most of our faith communities are not ready for these climate-driven disasters. Yet\, the communities who will be most threatened by climate change also have an opportunity to play a pivotal role in building resilience in their towns and cities. Whether a faith community has a large facility\, land\, social capital\, or something else\, those assets can be channeled into building climate resilience in preparation for the coming physical and spiritual storms of the climate crisis. Join us for a six-week exploration on Thursday evenings of how your house of worship/faith community can become a force for climate resilience for your community. To learn more/register\, see: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/faithful-resilience-a-study-on-climate-resilience-for-faith-communities-tickets-215046809797.

SUMMARY:All Creation Waits Weekly Book Discussion Group for Advent
DESCRIPTION:Avoid the consumer hype of the “holiday season” with daily readings of intimate\, beautifully-written portraits of wild animals and their adaptations to the cold and dark of winter.  The author sees in these creatures lessons for adapting to the “winters” in our own lives.  The book\, although intended as a devotional for the Christian season of Advent\, is very unusual in that the stories contain no overtly religious content\, making it suitable for people of all faiths\, or no faith at all. So\, Christians\, environmentalists\, animal lovers & others will be captivated and inspired by these stories.  And\, the stories can be read with children & enjoyed by the entire family.  Join a weekly book discussion group on Wednesdays\, online\, to reflect together on All Creation Waits.  Register for the weekly discussion on www.eventbrite.com at: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/all-creation-waits-book-discussion-group-for-advent-tickets-192586951757.

SUMMARY:Quaker Barter Fair
DESCRIPTION:Black Friday offers the challenge to BUY NOTHING!  The Quaker testimonies of Simplicity\, Community and Stewardship encourage Friends to find creative ways to care for the earth and each other\, and we want to extend this opportunity to others in the community.  Creating a space to practice thinking together in a new way about how we place value on objects and services within our community seems like a worthwhile way to observe the day after Thanksgiving.\nAnd it is a Fair\, with crafts\, games and other activities for families and chldren\, including\, but not limited to Holiday Potpourri\, Stone Art\, Origami\, Milkweed for Monarchs AND Music by Jim Presley: Blues and Native American Music\nTo get involved\, just come!   Bring a table\, shelf\, rug or blanket to display your goods or a sign that describes your service(s).   CHILDREN ARE WELCOME!  Children are often the best models of how this can work.  They have the ability to add value to an item by describing potential uses\, and the creativity to negotiate three-way trades.\nThere will be a designated area for “free” items that you are willing to give to whomever wants them.  Visitors may then use such items to barter and trade with if they wish.   At the end of the day all items remaining at the “Free Table” will be donated to a local charity.\nSchedule: \n12:30 PM – Open for table setup\n1:00 PM – Open to everyone – Games \, Crafts\, all day\n1:30 PM – Children’s Storytime:\n2:00 PM – 3:00 PM Concert-Jim Presley will play Traditional Blues\, Original Blues\, and Native American Music\n3:15 PM – Children’s Story Time: Milkweed & Monarchs\n\nWe will be observing Covid-19 precautions–event takes place outdoors with social distancing \nPlease bring your mask to wear when/if social distancing is not possible.
