Our dialog series provides a forum for intellectual pursuit and rational thought as integral to our spiritual journeys at UUCMC. Dialogs are planned on the first and third Sundays of the month at 9 am from September to May.

We welcome suggestions for speakers and topics. Please email uucmc@uucmc.org.

Upcoming Sunday Dialogs, 9:00am, Community Room

December 15th: Ten Days in Thailand

Woody Ross, UUCMC Member

Thailand is a kingdom in South East Asia which has never been dominated by any colonial powers. The population is 93% Buddhist and deeply committed. It’s beautiful, where habitually sweet and serene people walk their talk even in this era of almost overwhelming tourism, foreign investment, and surrounded by totalitarian neighbors. The ancient beauty shines through all the modernization. A 10-day tour did not by any means make Woody an authority on Thailand or Buddhism. Those of who have made the trek or practice Buddhism are invited to weigh in with their knowledge as appropriate and appropriately.

Woody has been an active member of UUCMC for over 35 years and has been retired of 21 of them. Among other things, he has been a member of the Sunday Morning Dialog Committee since 2010. In the past few years he has taken to traveling about the world while still physically and mentally able. An avid photographer, he enjoys photo journaling his travels.
