Pouring into Covenant

,

As the program year of the congregation begins, we gather in a community of all ages to remember our connections to one another and to our faith. Please bring a little water from your summer adventures to share in the service.

What I Read This Summer

We continue a congregational tradition by offering a lay-led Labor Day weekend service on Sunday, September 4th, on the theme of “What I Read this Summer.” As we begin the new program year, our presentations will focus on our Soul Matters theme for September: a Community of Covenant. Join us to consider our Community of Covenant, and perhaps discover a new book to add to your reading list.

Going Together

Two years ago, we began a Developmental Ministry with the goals of transforming TUUC. As we enter the last year of our contract, we revisit Linda’s suggestions of the tools that we use. Don’t forget your sunglasses.

Spiritual Journeys

Join us as several congregation members share where their journeys have led them.

Going Deep, Reaching Out

We’re stronger together. And stronger still when we connect deeply with one another. Our reason for gathering as a community isn’t to be together, though. It’s to make a difference in the world. Let’s consider what that might be.

Into the Mystery: Mysticism, UUs, and Neurotheology

Where does direct experience of the transcendent, neuroscience, and UU intersect? Or better yet, where does “woo woo” meet “weigh and measure?” Surveys show that a significant number of individuals have had some type of “mystical, numinous, or transcendent experience,” so how can we explain and reconcile this with scientific fact? Does Neurotheology finally have the answer for us to know the unknowable? What does the latest neuroscience have to say about spiritual experience?

The Democratic Experiment

The writer Parker Palmer describes democracy as “a nonstop experiment in the strength and weakness of our political institutions, our local communities, and the human heart.” During this season of heated rhetoric, we are challenged to look for ways to turn conflict into the energy of creativity, and to see tension as an invitation to work for the common good.
