Location: Big Classroom (Emerson/Thoreau) Join us for a heartfelt and informative presentation on the life-saving power of organ and tissue donation. With over 104,000 people across the U.S., including more than 4,000 in North Carolina, waiting for a transplant, the need has never been greater. We’ll explore what can be donated, how these gifts heal and save lives, and address a few common misconceptions. You’ll also learn how easy it is to register your decision, either online or when renewing your driver’s license. While choosing to be a donor is a profoundly personal decision, it can bring lasting hope to others, and it all starts with a simple conversation.

Location: Fellowship Hall Today we hear the story of a family who all mourn in different ways, and experience a beautiful ritual to honor emotions of grief. Join us today to find the solace and comfort that comes when we have stories, images and practices to hold grief, together. Service led by Lianne McCray, who grew up at UUFWS and is now professionally a chaplain and facilitator of healing rituals and workshops on grief, recovery from eating disorders, birthing and personal growth at large.
Location: Big Classroom (Emerson/Thoreau) Digital scams are flooding our phones, computers, and even mailboxes—yes, the old-school scammers are still at it. Fueled by massive data breaches and AI-driven deception, these schemes are becoming more sophisticated and harder to detect. However cautious you think you are, it’s probably not cautious enough. In this session, we’ll explore why scams are so rampant, dissect their timeless anatomy, and uncover how little the tactics have changed over the past century. Most importantly, we’ll discuss how to protect your money—because, unfortunately, banks and government agencies won’t always do it for you.

Location: Fellowship Hall The start of the winter holiday season can be hard. Prepare by making space for some music to soothe our souls, as we debut the UUFWS band.
Location: Big Classroom (Emerson/Thoreau) This presentation explores the quiet disappearance of fireflies from our summer nights and why it matters—for our ecosystems, our sense of wonder, and future generations. We’ll uncover the scientific causes of their decline and discover simple but powerful actions we can take in our homes, yards, and communities to help restore their glow. Together, we’ll learn how protecting fireflies is about more than saving insects—it’s about rekindling the nostalgic magic of our childhood nights and honoring our place in the web of life.
