Sunday Platform – Remembrance Sunday (Online)
December 26, 2021 @ 11:00 am - 12:30 pm
Notice: this week’s Sunday Platform will be online only.
On this last Sunday of the year, we set aside time to reflect and to honor the loved ones of the past for whose gifts we are grateful. We immortalize them by bearing witness and by carrying on their spirit in our own lives. We face tomorrow with hope made stronger by the lessons we have learned and the love we have shared.

Shared Charity: Hope for Haiti
Sunday Platform is our most important and long-standing community event. These gatherings educate, stimulate personal growth, inspire reflection and action, and strengthen our community. Sunday meetings usually begin with music, followed by greetings and a talk given by a Society Leader, member, or guest. Platforms cover a variety of topics that reflect current events, pressing social issues, and Ethical Culture philosophy. A collection basket is passed and money is shared between the Society and a charity selected for that day. While contributions are always appreciated, Sunday meetings are free and open to the public. Each Sunday meeting is followed by a luncheon and social hour.
