November 1st: Touring the Five Great Lakes by Ship and Rail

Steve and Pat Miller

This past summer Steve and Pat saw a wide swath of the Midwest by sailing the five Great Lakes from Toronto to Chicago. They spent 9 nights on the ship, with port stops each day, and with hotel stays at each end. Transport to and from NJ was by train, and in a sleeper car on the way home. It was a fun, interesting, and environmentally friendly trip.

Steve and Pat Miller are Co-Chairs of UUCMC’s Climate Action Team. They also Co-Chair Electrification Committees in Sierra Club and Climate Reality Project and are founders and co-leaders of the NJ Electrification Coaching Network. They advocate for electrification of all home appliances, as well as EVs and solar energy.

November 15th: Finding America in South America

Tim Geiselman

Tim spent two years in Trujillo, Peru teaching English as a second language between 1986 and 1988. He will discuss what he learned about the USA through the
lens of the Peruvians as well as what he learned about South America and life in a third world country.

Tim Geiselman has been a congregant at UUCMC since 2016. He lives in Middletown with his wife Rosane and has a lifelong interest in music, books and history.
