Introduction to Adoration at Prairiewoods

In this hour via Zoom, Sarah Hennessy, FSPA, will join us from St. Rose Convent in La Crosse, Wisconsin, where the tradition of 24/7 Eucharistic adoration has been kept alive for over 140 years. With her, we'll survey a basic history and a contemporary view of adoration, consider tips for adoration and discuss ways adoration can change our lives. We will see why being in the presence leads us to living adoration as loving presence.

Fall Faculty Series
<p>During the suffragist movement, white women were centered and central. During that same time period, Black men were calling for citizenship and voting rights. Where were the Black women? Black women were fighting on all fronts, none of which considered the Black woman’s space or place within those policies. In celebrating the 100th anniversary of the 19th Amendment, we will shine a light on the invisible class: Black women and their organizing for citizenship and the right to vote.</p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/MountMercyUniversity">Join via YouTube</a></p><p><em>Events are free and open to the MMU community only due to COVID-19 safety precautions.

Even in Pandemic: Wisdom & Wonder from the Book of Nature at Prairiewoods
<p>During these past long months, and who knows how far forward into the future, we’ve all coiled more and more deeply into the narrow landscape of the world—especially the natural world—closest to wherever we’ve been sheltering in place. For many of us, the one holy tether amid these unforeseen constrictions has been our connection to the quietudes and rhythms of the heavens above and the stirrings of the earth that roots and surrounds us. In this short one-hour Zoom offering, facilitator Barbara Mahany will stir the conversation with a brief overview of the Book of Nature as a centuries-old theology, one drawn upon by mystics and monastics, scholars and poets. We will share a few particularly soulful passages, poems, and prayers to draw our attention more finely into the wisdoms and wonders—and saving graces—of Creation. We will discuss these wonders to evoke reflections, to dwell on the healing capacities of Nature and to prickle curiosities and yearnings for deeper contemplation and exploration therein. Among the possible poets and writers we’d draw from are Mary Oliver, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Pope Francis, Thomas Merton and Terry Tempest Williams. The cost of this one-hour Zoom discussion is $20. Please register to receive the Zoom link. For more information or to register, contact Prairiewoods at www.Prairiewoods.org or 319-395-6700.</p> 2020-08-27 11:00:00 -0500

Virtual Thursday Forum: Apocalypticism
<p dir="ltr">“This Thursday Forum will examine some of the central pieces of apocalyptic literature in Judaism and Christianity. We will see how throughout history, apocalyptic groups emerge during times of real or perceived oppression, injustice, or instability. These groups have produced literature of varied forms, which reveals the way they understood history and their place in it. By examining such texts and movements, we will be able to appreciate the rich and nuanced ways humans have attempted to place themselves in a larger and meaningful cosmic plan, and interpret contemporary events as predicted and planned by the divine. In our first session, we will discuss one of the earliest pieces of apocalyptic literature, the Book of Daniel. The second session will grapple with the book of Revelation and some of the ways it has been interpreted over time.</p><p>For more information about any aspect of Thursday Forum or to register, call 319.399.8523 or visit <a href="https://www.coe.edu/why-coe/events/thursday-forum">www.coe.edu/why-coe/events/thursday-forum</a><a href="http://www.coe.edu/why-coe/events/thursday-forum">.</a>”</p> 2020-09-24 23:56:00 -05009/24/2012:00 a.m.Coe CollegeCedar Rapids -

Seriously Funny: American Gothic Parodies
<p>Grant Wood’s <em>American Gothic</em> is probably the world’s most parodied American painting, second only to Leonardo’s <em>Mona Lisa</em>. The fact that thousands of parodies of <em>American Gothic</em> exist, dating back several decades, speaks to the enduring inspiration of one of America’s greatest works of art. This exhibition—a first for the Cedar Rapids Museum of Art—will look at many of these parodies—some in the flesh on the gallery’s walls and many others digitally projected in an attempt to share the incredible reach of this iconic painting. From Bill and Hillary Clinton to Leonardo and Mona Lisa to RuPaul as male and female, these parodies speak to how this one painting serves as the basis for looking at various contemporary people and issues. Wood’s impactful 1930 painting continues to inspire “artists” of all ages and skills in a playful and humorous way that Wood would no doubt have applauded.</p> 2020-09-24 20:00:00 -0500
