Welcome to the adult development programs of the Unitarian Universalist Church of Midland. These small groups provide opportunities for growth and are a reflection of the congregation’s diverse interests.



Building Your Own Philosophy (BYOP)

1st and 3rd Wednesdays, 7:30 p.m.
Unitarian Universalist Church of Midland

Building your own Philosophy reads and discusses diverse authors and subjects, from philosophy to ecology, from religion to history and art. Reading a book with others which we might not pick on our own can lead to broader and deeper insight. The pace is unhurried; the discussion is lively.

Quantum Dream Studies

Unitarian Universalist Church of Midland
Meets Saturdays, 2:00 – 4:00 p.m. See calendar for dates.

We all dream at night. Some say they never dream, but they do. Some dreams we remember, some we do not. What does it all mean and how important is dreaming to our physical, spiritual and mental well-being? Can we remember more, even all of our dreams? Dream Study group has merged with the Bleep Consciousness Group to consider the possibilities and many levels of existence. These two approaches actually are synergistic, enabling us to become the being we were meant to be. We read and discuss a variety of books toward this end.
