Famous
It’s Easter. Jesus is probably one of the most famous names on Earth. But was fame what it was about? What was he seeking? What are we seeking?
Where You’re Going
After this year of being locked down, it may take a little time to sort out what happens next and how we find something that we can call “normal” again. How do we chart that path?
Shifting the Story
What we say and how we say it matters. The images and metaphors we rely upon shift conversations and have the capacity to transform perceptions. Let’s explore a few ways to begin change.
All the Future Holds
If we consider the future of 21st century faith, we might come to embrace today as a time of “research and development” in our spiritual lives. The question, then, becomes how can the future of our faith be a generative, multicultural paradigm of love, equity, and grace?
Joe Rettenmaier is a minister in the Unitarian Universalist Association. He received his Master of Divinity degree from Meadville-Lombard Theological School. Joe was raised in Kansas and has lived in the Salish Sea since 1988. In 2016, he left a high-tech career to pursue his call to ministry – a call that aims to dismantle systemic racism, develop beloved LGBTQ+ multicultural faith community, and reverse climate change.
Our Tapestry of Love
Our Annual Pledge drive kicks off this Sunday with the theme “Weaving a Tapestry of Love.” We say these words each week as we dedicate our offering. What is OUR tapestry of love? Why does it matter?
We’re All In This Together
The UUA report “Widening the Circle of Concern” offers UU congregations an opportunity to reflect upon and create strategies for becoming anti-racist and multicultural. How can we respond to this invitation?
Building a New Way
We gather to continue to deepen our consideration of becoming a Safe Parking site: offering hospitality and help to people whose homes are their cars.
Celebrating Love
Our annual All-Ages “Love” Service exploring all the ways we show our love to the world and how we celebrate LOVE.
Our service included a whimsical sing-a-long of “Come, Sing A Song With Me”
Rev. Dr. Linda A. Hart shares “Opening Our Hearts: A Yoga for All Ages” as part of the worship service.
“The Love Letter” by Anika Aldamuy Denise was read by Staci Kopcha as part of our “Celebrating Love” worship service, and this is another recording of the same book that we hope you’ll enjoy!
A Future Not Our Own
How does our beloved community stretch into the future? Many of us may be thinking about the legacy we’ll leave to the world. It’s never too early to start thinking about it.
