Florence Caplow will explore these questions and others in our first service in June.\nFor Youtube livestream please visit the Two Rivers Unitarian Universalist page in Youtube.\n \n\n\n Related URL:https://truu.org/event/sunday-worship-on-the-practice-of-flourishing-together-with-reverend-florence-caplow/ LOCATION:Third Street Center\, 520 S. 3rd Street\, Carbondale\, CO\, 81621\, United States CATEGORIES:Sunday Worship ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://truu.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/Unknown.png ORGANIZER;CN="Two Rivers Unitarian Universalist":MAILTO:truu@truu.org GEO:39.3950659;-107.2099521 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Third Street Center 520 S. 3rd Street Carbondale CO 81621 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=520 S. 3rd Street:geo:-107.2099521,39.3950659 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20260603T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20260603T203000 DTSTAMP:20260514T213530Z CREATED:20260514T213530Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260514T213530Z UID:10002115-1780513200-1780518600@truu.org SUMMARY:A Long\, Strange Trip -- Adult Education DESCRIPTION:Please join Mike\, Jan\, Thelma and Andrew to learn about the history of Unitarian Universalism through watching the six-part Ron Cordes DVD series “Long Strange Trip”.  We will meet consecutive Wednesdays from seven until eight-thirty in the evening\, in the TRUU room.  Each video is about an hour\, so we will have some time to review and discuss. \n\n\n Related URL:https://truu.org/event/a-long-strange-trip-adult-education/2026-06-03/ LOCATION:Third Street Center\, 520 S. 3rd Street\, Carbondale\, CO\, 81621\, United States CATEGORIES:Community Event ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://truu.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/unnamed-2.png ORGANIZER;CN="Two Rivers Unitarian Universalist":MAILTO:truu@truu.org GEO:39.3950659;-107.2099521 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Third Street Center 520 S. 3rd Street Carbondale CO 81621 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=520 S. 3rd Street:geo:-107.2099521,39.3950659 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20260531T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20260531T120000 DTSTAMP:20260427T210226Z CREATED:20260427T210226Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260427T210226Z UID:10002112-1780221600-1780228800@truu.org SUMMARY:Social Justice Service on the topic of "Preserving Home" DESCRIPTION:What does housing justice look like when home itself is under threat? On Sunday\, May 31\, TRUU’s Social Justice Fellowship will explore the growing crisis of displacement as wealthy investors purchase mobile home parks and put long-standing residents at risk. Centering the voices of neighbors from Cavern Springs Mobile Home Park — including local organizer Judith Alvarez — this service will invite us into the lived reality of people fighting to remain rooted in community and to pursue resident ownership. Together\, we will learn about the situation\, hear how local residents are responding\, and consider meaningful ways to offer support\, solidarity\, and practical help. Grounded in reflection\, connection\, and the shared human need for safety and belonging\, this service will offer both information and inspiration. \n \n\n\n Related URL:https://truu.org/event/social-justice-service-on-the-topic-of-preserving-home/ LOCATION:Third Street Center\, 520 S. 3rd Street\, Carbondale\, CO\, 81621\, United States CATEGORIES:Sunday Worship ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://truu.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/2026-05-31_SJ-Preserving-Home.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Two Rivers Unitarian Universalist":MAILTO:truu@truu.org GEO:39.3950659;-107.2099521 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Third Street Center 520 S. 3rd Street Carbondale CO 81621 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=520 S. 3rd Street:geo:-107.2099521,39.3950659 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20260524T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20260524T120000 DTSTAMP:20260427T205504Z CREATED:20260427T205504Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260427T205504Z UID:10002111-1779616800-1779624000@truu.org SUMMARY:Fellowship Service on the topic of "Awakening Curiosity" by Dede Osborn DESCRIPTION:This Sunday is a Fellowship Service\, founded in the Unitarian Universalist philosophy of Small Group ministry.

Wayne Teasdale and four other renowned global interfaith pioneers. Marking this anniversary is a new two volume thematic and chronological history of Interspirituality with contributions by over 120 global interfaith leaders– opening message by His Holiness the Dalai Lama\, Foreword by Matthew Fox (one of the namers of the paradigm) and Afterword by Colorado’s own Ken Wilber. The paradigm is also so familiar to Coloradoans because of the central role of Fr. Thomas Keating\, host of the decades long Snowmass Dialogues from his Snowmass Abbey which resulted in the Nine Points of Agreement Among the World’s Religions. In my sharing we’ll explore what the original interspiritual pioneers envisioned and how things have turned out a bit differently. We’ll also look at the four areas of emphasis for the future that the over 120 contributors to these two new historic volumes suggest is the direction things must go for our world to have a thriving global future. Our discussion will be right in line with your theme for May: Awakening Curiosity – Exploring New Perspectives \nBIO: Kurt Johnson. Rev.

In his book Zen Mind Beginner’s Mind\, Suzuki Roshi writes\, “In the beginner’s mind\, there are many possibilities\, in the expert’s mind\, there are few. The mind of the beginner is empty\, free of the habit of the expert. Ready to accept and open to all the possibilities.” \nWhat this May 10th practice is offering is a really simple and very easy to forget. It is very possible that in the middle of our busy lives we can pause and enter the senses\, when we can do that
then who knows what’s true? \nBio:  Lisa Goddard is the founding teacher of Roaring Fork Insight offers meditation instruction through online group practice\, classes and retreats\, in-person and in nature in the Roaring Fork Valley and beyond. She has been practicing meditation since 1997 and has been facilitating these practices since 2002. \nInspired by the teachings of Suzuki Roshi and Ajahn Chah\, Lisa received training through Green Gulch Farm Zen Center\, Spirit Rock Meditation Center\, Jack Kornfield and Tara Brach\, Zen Hospice Project\, Mindful Schools and the Sati Center for Buddhist Studies. She is a Certified Mindfulness Facilitator through UCLA’s Semel Institute for Neuroscience & Human Behavior\, trained in Eco-Chaplaincy and is a member of the International Mindfulness Teachers Association.

May Day!" by Rev. Zenshin Florence Caplow DESCRIPTION:May Day has many layers of meaning – it is the great pagan fire festival of Beltane; it is “International Workers Day”; it is a distress call (mayday! mayday!); and\, this year\, “May Day Strong\,” a call from labor organizations for “no work\, no school\, no shopping” on May 1st\, in response to what is happening in our country.

She will discuss the Force\, universal consciousness\, meditation\, manifestation\, and how the philosophy of the Jedi applies to everyday life. \nBio:  Dr. Krista Noble is the author of One with the Force: 18 Universal Truths in Star Wars\, published by Bloomsbury in 2024. She is a professor at Maharishi International University\, where she earned her PhD and MA in Consciousness & Human Potential. Dr. Noble has also taught at the Holmes Institute and the University of Philosophical Research. She has presented at international conferences\, universities\, Nerd Nite\, spiritual centers\, meditation centers\, and on various podcasts. \nAdditional information that may be useful: \nMedia links: \nMy website: https://www.kristanoble.com \nMy Amazon author page: https://www.amazon.com/author/kristanoble \nMy Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/krista.noble.92 \nMy LinkedIn page: https://www.linkedin.com/in/krista-noble-ph-d-6a263799/ \nMy YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@kristanoblephd \nSummary of my book:  Why are the Star Wars films so popular? Of course\, viewers love the characters\, the plot\, the music\, and the special effects. However\, there is a deeper reason why these films resonate with audiences: Star Wars contains universal truths—principles that are “true for all time\, all places and all people.” The same principles can be found in religions and philosophies throughout the world\, including the Vedic tradition of ancient India\, Buddhism\, Taoism\, Sikhism\, Judaism\, Christianity\, Islam\, and Native American/First Nations beliefs.  \nIn One with the Force: 18 Universal Truths in Star Wars\, Dr. Krista Noble explores these principles. She delves into a rich array of topics\, from the Force to collective consciousness\, and from enlightenment to immortality. Readers will see that the philosophy of the Jedi doesn’t only apply “in a galaxy far\, far away”; it is also highly relevant to everyday living. Like Luke Skywalker\, we should all look within to discover the deepest truths of life\, pursue our individual destinies\, and strive to reach our full potential as human beings. In these ways\, we can embody the wisdom of the Jedi. \nAdvance praise for my book \n\n “An intriguing addition to Star Wars scholarship\, which reveals the timeless substructure underpinning the space-age saga. If you watched the Star Wars movies with a feeling in your bones that you were seeing something unfold that was not merely the product of modern creative storytellers but something ancient and powerful\, this book will tell you why.”\n\n—Joe Holland\, Instructor of Consciousness & Human Potential\, Maharishi International University \n\n “One with the Force reveals why Star Wars touches the souls of its fans\, showing that this iconic film series has much more to it than meets the eye. Noble’s book expounds on the universal principles in Star Wars that inspire us and sustain the cosmos.”\n\n—Marci Shimoff\, #1 NY Times bestselling author of Happy for No Reason and Chicken Soup for the Woman’s Soul \n\n “This lucid study takes up a topic dear to my heart—the uses of fiction as a wisdom path—and traces essential principles from South Eastern and other traditions of wisdom and spirit appearing in Star Wars. The parallels mentioned by the author are evocative and even archetypal. The image of a path of spirituality emphasizing balance\, experience\, mindful action\, and unity found in difference speaks strongly to our time of culture wars and increased questioning of traditional creeds.”\n\n—Craig Chalquist\, PhD\, author of Soulmapper \n\n “Krista Noble’s insightful presentation of the Star Wars trilogy highlights and magnifies the inherent nobility of this blockbuster film series\, as she unearths and identifies age-old universal principles of life and living embedded in the story. Noble’s book provides a happy hunting ground for exploring the profound truths of the world’s cultural\, spiritual\, and religious traditions. A magnificent read!”\n\n—Dr. Judy Booth\, retired faculty member and current advisor at Maharishi International University \n \n\n\n Related URL:https://truu.org/event/the-spirituality-of-star-wars-by-dr-krista-noble/ LOCATION:Third Street Center\, 520 S. 3rd Street\, Carbondale\, CO\, 81621\, United States CATEGORIES:Sunday Worship ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://truu.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/2026-04-26_Star-Wars.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Two Rivers Unitarian Universalist":MAILTO:truu@truu.org GEO:39.3950659;-107.2099521 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Third Street Center 520 S. 3rd Street Carbondale CO 81621 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=520 S. 3rd Street:geo:-107.2099521,39.3950659 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20260419T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20260419T120000 DTSTAMP:20260323T161545Z CREATED:20260323T161545Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260323T161545Z UID:10002106-1776592800-1776600000@truu.org SUMMARY:"Embracing Possibility" by Rabbi Shereen Sarick DESCRIPTION:What becomes possible when we loosen our grip on certainty — and get curious about what else might be true?

It happens in the spaces where we feel safe\, unchallenged\, and certain we’re “the good ones.” In this Social Justice service\, we’ll explore a bracing (and strangely freeing) question: who are we becoming when nobody’s watching? Not as a guilt trip\, and not as a performance—more like honest spiritual training for the moments that shape our character: how we speak when it’s comfortable to be sloppy\, how we respond when feedback stings\, how we notice the systems that keep benefiting us even when we don’t “mean” to. \nTogether we’ll practice the shift from defensiveness to accountability\, from optics to integrity\, from “I’m not like those people” to “What am I willing to change—and what am I willing to risk?” Expect a service that is candid\, compassionate\, and practical: more listening than posturing\, more formation than finger-pointing\, and an invitation to grow a sturdier kind of solidarity—one that shows up in real rooms\, on real Tuesdays\, with real choices. \n \n\n\n Related URL:https://truu.org/event/who-we-become-when-its-just-us/ LOCATION:Third Street Center\, 520 S. 3rd Street\, Carbondale\, CO\, 81621\, United States CATEGORIES:Sunday Worship ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://truu.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/2026-03-22_SJ-Just-Us.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Two Rivers Unitarian Universalist":MAILTO:truu@truu.org GEO:39.3950659;-107.2099521 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Third Street Center 520 S. 3rd Street Carbondale CO 81621 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=520 S. 3rd Street:geo:-107.2099521,39.3950659 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20260315T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20260315T120000 DTSTAMP:20260223T174615Z CREATED:20260223T174545Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260223T174615Z UID:10002098-1773568800-1773576000@truu.org SUMMARY:"Less: In Praise of Slowing Down" by Rev.

This service reflects on the necessity of contrast—light and dark\, ease and tension\, belonging and separation—as essential to growth and meaning. Inspired by forests\, ancient wisdom\, and a brief history of textiles\, we’ll explore the idea that conflict and failure are not aberrations to be avoided\, but crucial strands in the fabric of existence. Rather than seeking escape or resolution\, we’ll consider how living with curiosity\, compassion\, and resilience–as well as with grief\, frustration\, and outrage–may be the richest invitation of our shared human journey. \n \n\n\n Related URL:https://truu.org/event/woof-and-warp-the-weave-of-whats-to-come-by-aaron-brown/ LOCATION:Third Street Center\, 520 S. 3rd Street\, Carbondale\, CO\, 81621\, United States CATEGORIES:Sunday Worship ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://truu.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/2026-03-08_Woof-Warp.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Two Rivers Unitarian Universalist":MAILTO:truu@truu.org GEO:39.3950659;-107.2099521 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Third Street Center 520 S. 3rd Street Carbondale CO 81621 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=520 S. 3rd Street:geo:-107.2099521,39.3950659 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20260301T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20260301T120000 DTSTAMP:20260223T174014Z CREATED:20260223T174014Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260223T174014Z UID:10002096-1772359200-1772366400@truu.org SUMMARY:"Wool and Wolf - The Power of Truth in Tempestuous Times" by Aaron Brown DESCRIPTION:What does it mean to live in truth? When Mark Carney addressed the World Economic Forum in Davos earlier this year\, he challenged the world’s leaders to face the future with clear sight\, to not let the wool be pulled over their eyes any longer about the state of the world. He referenced one of the most powerful political manifestos written in the last century–The Power of the Powerless by VĂĄclav Havel. Havel\, a playwright\, became one of Czechoslovakia’s leading dissidents under the “post-totalitarian” rule of its socialist government. In an environment of suppressed speech and secret police\, Havel told the truth about life under dictatorship. He also warned that the West might need to hear his words at some point. Now seems like an opportune time to explore Havel’s work\, seeking in it both political wisdom and spiritual wisdom to help guide us through uncertain times. \n \n\n\n Related URL:https://truu.org/event/wool-and-wolf-the-power-of-truth-in-tempestuous-times-by-aaron-brown/ LOCATION:Third Street Center\, 520 S. 3rd Street\, Carbondale\, CO\, 81621\, United States CATEGORIES:Sunday Worship ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://truu.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/2026-03-01_Wool-Wolf.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Two Rivers Unitarian Universalist":MAILTO:truu@truu.org GEO:39.3950659;-107.2099521 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Third Street Center 520 S. 3rd Street Carbondale CO 81621 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=520 S. 3rd Street:geo:-107.2099521,39.3950659 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20260222T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20260222T120000 DTSTAMP:20260124T223411Z CREATED:20260124T223411Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260124T223411Z UID:10001907-1771754400-1771761600@truu.org SUMMARY:"Returning to Ourselves: Recovering Spirit After Stress and Trauma" by Sean Jeung DESCRIPTION:When stress or trauma knocks us off-center\, it can feel like our inner life goes quiet—or goes into overdrive. In this reflection\, you explore what “recovery of spirit” can look like after we’ve been overwhelmed: how we begin to reweave a sense of steadiness\, meaning\, and wholeness. Rather than rushing toward a tidy resolution\, the focus is on compassionate realism—honoring what happened\, noticing what we carry\, and making space for the small steps that support healing. Listeners can expect a gentle\, grounded exploration of how we return to ourselves\, and how community and care can be part of that return. \n \n\n\n Related URL:https://truu.org/event/returning-to-ourselves-recovering-spirit-after-stress-and-trauma-by-sean-jeung/ LOCATION:Third Street Center\, 520 S. 3rd Street\, Carbondale\, CO\, 81621\, United States CATEGORIES:Sunday Worship ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://truu.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/2026-02-22_Spirit-Returns.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Two Rivers Unitarian Universalist":MAILTO:truu@truu.org GEO:39.3950659;-107.2099521 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Third Street Center 520 S. 3rd Street Carbondale CO 81621 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=520 S. 3rd Street:geo:-107.2099521,39.3950659 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20260221T173000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20260221T203000 DTSTAMP:20260114T180059Z CREATED:20260114T180059Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260114T180059Z UID:10001890-1771695000-1771705800@truu.org SUMMARY:TRUU Potluck & Congregational Dinner DESCRIPTION:Join us for an evening of good food and good company!

Dacher\, M.D. DESCRIPTION:What if I told you a hardy resilience was already and always available to you? You may then ask\, “How do I access this?” Let me explain. There are two distinct forms of resilience – psychological and spiritual. These correspond to the two aims of meditation. The first is fostering a healthy human life\, psychological resilience. The second is leaping beyond to a larger fully conscious life\, spiritual resilience.   \nThis program will focus on the second aim of meditation – spiritual realization and the revelation of our innate and unchanging resilience. This requires an awareness-based meditation practice – a traditional approach that is simple\, direct\, effortless\, and yet profound. The great sages say – “how amazing we cannot see what is right there\, right now\, full and complete.” Join me for this discussion and practice that points us towards a true and stable resilience. \nElliott S. Dacher\, M.D. practiced internal medicine for 20 years before redirecting his focus to the inner dimensions of health and healing. He embarked on a second medical education\, studying the philosophies and practices of Eastern healing under the guidance of wise elders in Asia. Dr. Dacher teaches a profound yet effortless non-dual meditation practice. He is the author of five books\, including Aware\, Awake\, Alive and Meditation and Beyond. \n \n\n\n Related URL:https://truu.org/event/awareness-based-meditation-by-elliott-s-dacher-m-d/ LOCATION:Third Street Center\, 520 S. 3rd Street\, Carbondale\, CO\, 81621\, United States CATEGORIES:Sunday Worship ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://truu.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/2026-02-08_Awareness-Meditation.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Two Rivers Unitarian Universalist":MAILTO:truu@truu.org GEO:39.3950659;-107.2099521 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Third Street Center 520 S. 3rd Street Carbondale CO 81621 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=520 S. 3rd Street:geo:-107.2099521,39.3950659 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20260201T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20260201T120000 DTSTAMP:20260128T004224Z CREATED:20260124T222609Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260128T004224Z UID:10001904-1769940000-1769947200@truu.org SUMMARY:Fellowship Service on the topic of "Embodying Resilience" by Liza Ferrier DESCRIPTION:This Sunday is a Fellowship Service\, founded in the Unitarian Universalist philosophy of Small Group ministry.

Drawing on vivid local history\, global perspective\, and his own lifelong engagement with Aspen’s evolving “Idea\,” he will weave story and reflection into a conversation about moral courage\, empathy\, and what it means to build a life—and a town—rooted in service. Come meet one of the valley’s most thoughtful voices and rediscover why Schweitzer’s message still has the power to unsettle\, inspire\, and lovingly call us back to our best selves. \n \n\n\n Related URL:https://truu.org/event/why-albert-schweitzer-matters-today-by-paul-andersen/ LOCATION:Third Street Center\, 520 S. 3rd Street\, Carbondale\, CO\, 81621\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://truu.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/2026-01-25_Schweitzer-Matters.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Two Rivers Unitarian Universalist":MAILTO:truu@truu.org GEO:39.3950659;-107.2099521 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Third Street Center 520 S. 3rd Street Carbondale CO 81621 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=520 S. 3rd Street:geo:-107.2099521,39.3950659 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20260118T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20260118T120000 DTSTAMP:20251228T211231Z CREATED:20251228T211231Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251228T211231Z UID:10001887-1768730400-1768737600@truu.org SUMMARY:"What Rev. Dr. King Can Teach Us Now" by Rev. Zenshin Florence Caplow DESCRIPTION:In 1966\, Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. addressed hundreds of mostly white Unitarian Universalists. In his speech he said to them\, “There is nothing more tragic than to sleep through a revolution.” What did he mean? And what does this mean for us today\, in a country where those in power are dismantling rights for so many Americans\, rights that were won through decades of courage and sacrifice? \n \n\n\n Related URL:https://truu.org/event/what-rev-dr-king-can-teach-us-now-by-rev-zenshin-florence-caplow/ LOCATION:Third Street Center\, 520 S. 3rd Street\, Carbondale\, CO\, 81621\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://truu.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/2026-01-18_King-Teach.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Two Rivers Unitarian Universalist":MAILTO:truu@truu.org GEO:39.3950659;-107.2099521 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Third Street Center 520 S. 3rd Street Carbondale CO 81621 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=520 S. 3rd Street:geo:-107.2099521,39.3950659 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20260111T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20260111T120000 DTSTAMP:20251228T211301Z CREATED:20251228T210955Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251228T211301Z UID:10001886-1768125600-1768132800@truu.org SUMMARY:"Just Because You're Older
" by Rev. Zenshin Florence Caplow DESCRIPTION:Sometimes people look around a room and say\, disparagingly\, “Everyone here has gray hair.” Or someone attends a demonstration and says\, with discouragement\, “Where are the young people?” Does it matter how old we are? Why? Let’s explore (and deconstruct) ageism in our culture and also ageism in our own hearts and minds. \n \n\n\n Related URL:https://truu.org/event/just-because-youre-older-by-rev-zenshin-florence-caplow/ LOCATION:Third Street Center\, 520 S. 3rd Street\, Carbondale\, CO\, 81621\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://truu.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/2026-01-11_Because-Older.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Two Rivers Unitarian Universalist":MAILTO:truu@truu.org GEO:39.3950659;-107.2099521 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Third Street Center 520 S. 3rd Street Carbondale CO 81621 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=520 S. 3rd Street:geo:-107.2099521,39.3950659 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20260109T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20260109T200000 DTSTAMP:20250901T222431Z CREATED:20250901T222431Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250901T222431Z UID:10001784-1767985200-1767988800@truu.org SUMMARY:Soak & Connect: Monthly Dip with AspenOUT 🌈💩 DESCRIPTION:Come join your Queer fam for an evening of bubbles\, laughter\, and community at Glenwood Hot Springs!
