Updated features on UAC site

Dear friends,

We have recently added a few items on our site which could be of interest to you.

If you click on the Study tab, followed by the Study Groups sub-tab, you will have available a series of five audio/visual presentations; related with the purpose of a study group and followed through with elaborated methods to create and facilitate one…click on Tips on Study Groups; a must see!

Also –

We have inserted a Donation tab which is now fully functional with both PayPal and credit card options. Please check it out and feel free to test it.

While we do not have a charitable status allowing us the issuing of a tax deduction receipt for your annual income file, a small donation should have little or no impact on it. On the other hand, for considered substantial donations on your part, our treasurer invites you to use this relatively interesting equation as a practical means:

In this example –

  • Your tax bracket is 35%
  • You wish to donate 100. $ but you know that 35. $ of this money is dedicated to government.
  • Sending 65. $ as a donation will meet your allowable budget of 100. $, equivalating more or less the same expense in the outcome.

All in all, we know the true meaning of your contribution.

Please make the best of the information above and feel free to question us Here

Conférence virtuelle : Science vs Religion (French)

Présentée Richard Lachance

Le dimanche 6 mars 2022

De 13 :00 à 15 :00

Zoom: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/84855036078

Nous examinerons de l’état des choses sur les débats actuels parmi les plus éminents scientifiques adhérents vs opposants à la preuve de l’existence de Dieu, du « Dessein intelligent », du créationnisme vs l’évolution.

Nous discuterons de l’athéisme et de l’agnosticisme, de l’exemple de Lucifer, du problème de l’orgueil, et du triomphe de la foi en un Dieu personnel.
Nous étudierons ensuite la compréhension actuelle de la structure de l’univers à grande échelle selon des hypothèses cosmologiques basées sur le Livre d’Urantia à la lumière des dernières découvertes scientifiques.

Lectures suggérées : Fascicules 100 à 103;
Plus particulièrement, pour se mettre en appétit : [101:2.11], [103:8.4], [103:8.5], [103:8.2], [132:2.4]

L’éternel futur – Conférence virtuelle (French)

By Association Urantia du Québec on

Temps et espace

Le dimanche, 13 février à 13h

Vous êtes invités à assister à la conférence, L’éternel futur présenté par Éric Tarissan.

Nous savons grâce au Livre d’Urantia que le temps et l’espace sont de toute éternité et qu’il n’y a jamais eu de commencement. Il n’y a jamais eu de Big-bang, d’explosion ou de départ anecdotique semblable.

Tout a commencé avec l’aide des Directeurs de Pouvoir et des Maîtres Architectes, mais allez expliquer à un physicien ou à un astronome que l’univers avec sa multitude de galaxies a été réalisé il y a environ 987 milliards d’années.

Mais qu’en est-il de l’avenir de l’univers et des personnalités qui l’habitent et l’habiteront ?

Qu’arrivera-t-il une fois l’expérience transcendante de l’Ultime parachevé ? Et Dieu l’Absolu avec la Trinité absolue, verront-ils vraiment le jour, et si oui, qu’arrivera-t-il ensuite, les potentiels seront-ils tous consommés ?

Pour vous joindre au groupe, vous cliquez sur le lien suivant 5 minutes avant la rencontre. https://us02web.zoom.us/j/82794043873

À la joie de vous y rencontrer et de partager avec vous.

Vancouver 2020 – Urantia Global Experience

By Nathen Jansen and Katharina Becker on

University of the Fraser Valley, BC  Canada

July 28 to August 1, 2020

Lifting Together – United in Purpose – Serving God the Supreme

The Urantia Association of Canada and The Urantia Book Fellowship have teamed up to host this gathering in the Vancouver Fraser Valley. They invite everyone to come together to serve the global community by making a personal contribution to civilization on Urantia.

The Urantia Global Experience is a gathering of minds dedicated to serving God the Supreme through the exploration of solutions for the progressive evolution of civilization. We believe the overall success of this experimental endeavor rests on our spiritual unity – our common motive to express the will of God in our personal daily lives as well as in our social institutions.

The format of this gathering will be a little different than past related experiences. Rather than a series of lectures and workshops, all participants will engage in discussion groups focused on a variety of topics drawn from The Urantia Book (see Paper 71:4 Progressive Civilization). From these discussions, we hope to derive common ideas, solutions, and purpose.

To implement these grand ideals, we need your help. We are currently taking applications for Facilitators and Visionary Exploration presenters, as well as for volunteers.

  • Facilitator Pairs – are required to moderate the discussions in both Focus Groups and Vision Teams. These discussions will focus on the 12 points of progressive civilization as placed in the context of working with the Supreme, and all Facilitators should be conversant in these areas.
  • Presenters – further discussions (Visionary Explorations) are dedicated to the advancement of civilization through current active projects, planned projects, and great ideas for new projects.
  • Volunteers – anyone who would like to lend a helping hand as custodians or ushers, as well as setting up equipment, cleaning, or doing a great variety of minor chores. We also need people who would like to sing in our choir.

Note: Due to spatial constraints, this event is limited to 300 actively engaged participants.

UB Ontario 2019

Twenty-six readers gathered (Sept 27-29)  on the shores of Lake Couchiching at the YMCA Retreat & Conference Center in Orillia, Ontario, to enjoy a weekend together at UB Ontario 2019.

It was a remarkable weekend as one would expect when Urantia Book readers gather to worship, study, socialize, share music, chat, hug and otherwise let our unseen friends fill in the gaps. It was a “magical” time together. In the group were a number of new readers (less than 2 years) as well as many first-time conference-goers. Clearly all were truth-seekers coming from many walks of life.

These samples of post-gathering comments say it best.

“I haven’t felt this level of soul communion in a long time. It was way beyond expectations, for one reason, I didn’t have any and so every moment was like a bonus.”

“So wonderful to meet some new readers plus spend quality time together.”

“We’re still on a high over here! …already excited about next year’s edition … to the absolute joy of these first-time personality connections! … look forward to serving with all of you through the many adventurous millennia that lie ahead as we make our way together along that amazing, joyous – and sometime perplexing journey!”

“Wow, it was grand”
