Our Monthly Spiritual Themes guide our Chalice Circles, which are small, intentional groups of members and friends that gather for spiritual enrichment through personal sharing. For more information on Chalice Circles, please email Linda Benson at chalicecircles@uuprinceton.org.

Our Chalice Circle thoughts and questions around the theme of “Home” this month are:

“Home isn’t a place, it’s a feeling.” –Cecelia Ahern

Where do you feel most at home? What is it about that place/those places that feel(s) homey?

 

“You can have more than one home. You can carry your roots with you, and decide where they grow.” –Henning Mankell

Where are your roots—of childhood, of young adulthood, of today? Are there roots you are still discovering or deciding where next to grow?

 

“I think that when you invite people to your home, you invite them to yourself.” –Oprah Winfrey

How does your home reflect who you are? 

 

“Everybody has a home team: It’s the people you call when you get a flat tire or when something terrible happens. It’s the people who, near or far, know everything that’s wrong with you and love you anyways. These are the ones who tell you their secrets, who get themselves a glass of water without asking when they’re at your house. These are the people who cry when you cry. These are your people, your middle-of-the-night, no-matter-what people.” –Shauna Niequist

Whose “home team” are you on?
