Revs. David and Beverly Bumbaugh with the Rev. Melissa Carvill-Ziemer – An ancient myth tells of a time when one world ended and a new world came into being. This sermon will explore that old, familiar story in an effort to uncover what message it may contain for our own time when history threatens to become discontinuous.

Rev. Melissa Carvill-Ziemer, Director of Religious Education Karen Lapidus and Worship Associate Trish McLoughlin – With bread and honey we will bless one another. With song and story we will be blessed. Everyone is welcome to our special multigenerational celebration of Thanksgiving. Come and let your cup be filled with gratitude. Come and re-dedicate yourself to the promise implicit in the welcome of all souls.

Rev. Melissa Carvill-Ziemer and Worship Associate Kristina Spaude – One of the beautiful ways that people have resisted being swept up in homogenizing consumer culture is by turning toward local community. Come celebrate the many ways our lives can be energized and enriched by investing in con-nections with local community.

Rev. Melissa Carvill-Ziemer and Worship Associate Kathy Kerns – In our culture, religious institutions have an important role to play in supporting an open, inclusive and free democratic society. Election Day sermons used to be a common feature of Unitarian Universalist congregations. We’ll honor that historic tradition this morning by exploring ways we can participate in building bridges and creating civil society.
