![]() Sermon by Rev. Jay Wolin and Interweave
Recently a county in Florida rejected a proclamation to acknowledge October as LGBTQ History Month. Since the “Don’t Say Gay” and “Stop Woke Act” legislation, many teachers are fearful of losing their jobs if they even mention LGBTQ or Race issues. Our Principles call for the Free and Responsible Search for Truth and Meaning. Let us promote the exploration of ideas and share experiences from multiple perspectives to gain a better understanding of the world we live in, instead of trying to erase the history of oppressed groups in this country.

![]() Saving Democracy /
Corporate Involvement In February 1933, three weeks after Adolf Hitler was appointed Chancellor, twenty-four of Germany’s elite business leaders met with Adolf Hitler. Following Hitler’s pledge to end Germany’s democracy, quash the unions and jail Bolsheviks, the businessmen pledged millions of reichsmarks for the financially depleted Nazi Party. Now in 2023, will corporate America make the same mistake and fund a fascist party intent on ending our democracy? Our presenter will address this question and explore ways citizens can respond. Presenter, Dale Anderson; Moderator, Mary Anne Bowie; Zoom Host, Dick Stammer. Intergenerational Beach Potluck at 5 to 7:30 pm:
