fUUsion - Interfaith Visit at the LA Baha'i Center
fUUsion welcomes members of UUSM to join us on a trip to learn about our neighboring faith communities. We hope to promote cultural understanding, encourage interfaith dialogue, and increase spiritual awareness.
This month we are visiting the Los Angeles Bahá’i Center. Founded more than a century ago by Bahál’u’lláh, the essential Bahá’i message is unity: the unity of God, the unity of religion, and the unity of human family. Bahá’is understand humanity to be in the process of collective evolution, with the goal of gradually establishing peace, justice, and unity on a global scale.
Today, members of the Bahá’i Faith live in more than 100,000 localities and come from nearly every nation, ethnic group, culture, profession, and social or economic background.
We will meet @ UUSM at 4:00pm for a brief conversation, and to organize carpools to the Los Angeles Baha'i Center, located at:
5575 Rodeo Road, Los Angeles, CA 90016.
We will be received by our hosts at the Bahá'i Center at 5:00pm.
What to Expect:
* a conversation about the Bahá’i Faith & interfaith sensitivity
* a Q & A with a few members of the Bahá’i Faith
* a few light snacks and refreshments
* an optional spiritual discussion that begins at 6:30pm
"To be a Bahá'i simply means to love all the world; to love humanity and try to serve it; to work for universal peace and universal brotherhood."

Sarah Hage
Sarah Hage brings her special vision of the world to our January Art Wall. Displaying a mixture of oil on canvas, pastel portraits, mixed media masks and sculptures, charcoals and acrylics, Hage presents her “functional and dysfunctional art [to] capture a sense of joy that casts some dark shadows, often with political undertones.”
Start the New Year right, meet Sarah at the Artist’s opening reception on Sunday, January 4, 2015 after the second service. The show will run through Sunday January 25.
Upon graduating from Boston College summa cum laude with a double major in English and History, Sarah Hage has spent over a decade creating art that is inspired by the natural world – often in unexpected ways. She states that her papier-mâché in particular, “evolves organically, and the process is as important as the end result. It is thrilling to create something from almost nothing…from flour, water, and newspaper…my patio is my studio, the LA Weekly my clay, the Southern California sun my kiln. Life doesn’t get any better than this.”
Sarah Hage began her artistic journey in Boston, but has been exhibiting under the warm sun of Los Angeles for the last four years. She plans to continue for many more years finding new ways to express herself on both the canvas and in the 3D world.
Contact Nancy at assistant@uusm.org, (310) 829-5436 x102 for info/weekday appointments.
Contact Beverly Alison for further info about the artist or about an artist you would recommend for an exhibit on our Art Wall.
