Perfection
Who knew that becoming a parent would be a lesson in perfection? We’ll reflection on the meaning of perfection as we delve into the embodiment of parenthood.
Transforming White Fragility
One of the tasks of majority white communities like ours is to be at work on ourselves in identifying and understanding our place in white supremacy. It’s hard work for some white people to do that work. How do we transform resistance to understanding?
“If Not Us, Who? If Not Now, When?”
Despite our progress, it’s hard to say the grand American experiment in democracy does not have its flaws. As we struggle to find solutions to our most vexing problems, we’ll examine Unitarian ideals from our faith ancestors, Ellery Channing and Horace Mann, to help illuminate a path to the life-affirming transformation we seek.
Soul Gardens
As we enter the season of emergence and rebirth, let’s take a moment to consider the elements our souls require for maximum growth. How well are we tending our personal gardens?
Born and Reborn Again
Easter is one of the challenging holidays for Unitarian Universalists, and the critical faith event for most Christians. We’ll consider what gifts of insight might come from the ancient stories.
Rays of Light in Times of Despair
Bill states that he would like to approach “transformation” service theme for April, by asking what is our saving faith? Do we UUs have a message that offers inner transformation and a measure of hope to cling to in these times of despair over climate change and the resurgence of appalling hate and intolerance?
Above and Beyond
The gifts that we bring to our congregation make our future possible. How will we support that future? We formally begin our stewardship drive for the next fiscal year, John Hoover, singer/songwriter and friend of the congregation will provide special music, and Kathy Crabb will offer the Time for All Ages story.
Saying Yes
Can you take a risk and say “Yes!” to what challenges you?
A Compass Through Conflict
Our youth invite you to join them in exploring different ways we navigate through unfamiliar, even hostile, territory. Is it the inner compass, the outer compass or a personal sense of True North that we turn to when life feels a little (or a lot) uncertain? Come join us for a youthful perspective to this ageless question.
