Led by: Joe Kuemerle and Worship Associate Max Grubb – The Kent UU Hogwarts program was founded as an alternative to Christian Bible School and uses the themes of Harry Potter and Hogwarts to engage with children while taking that opportunity to teach them about how we as UU’s think about the world, spirituality and justice. Come and join some of the Hogwarts staff as we share how we are working to expand the reach of our faith’s core values while also having a lot of fun.
If you would like to stay connected to the events of the annual Unitarian Universalist Association General Assembly this week, many events will be live streamed. You can access the full schedule of live streamed events at

In particular, you might like to know that Hal Walker will be playing the Khaen as gathering music for the worship on Thursday morning and will be directing a choir singing his Praise Song during the Saturday morning worship. In addition, Rev. Melissa will be speaking during the opening celebration on Wednesday evening as one of the co-chairs of the Right Relationship Team and reporting out at every plenary session.
Led by The Rev. Melissa Carvill-Ziemer and Worship Associate Trish McLoughlin – After an unremarkable 25 years in parish ministry, Joseph Tuckerman took up what he called a ministry-at-large in Boston in 1826. Thus Tuckerman became one of the very first Unitarian community ministers as well as a pioneer in American social work. This morning we will explore the theological ideals that lay at the heart of Tuckerman’s ministry and consider their relevance for our own morally complex times.

Calling All Gardeners! Saturday, June 23 9 am – noon
Goals are to continue the beautification of the backyard of the Church. We will be spreading wood chips, weeding, planting summer flowers, and rearranging the furniture in the area. We also need a volunteer to polyurethane two wooden benches. Bring gloves and tools.
Annual Service and Picnic in the Park
On Sunday, June 10, we will celebrate our annual worship service and picnic at Plum Creek Park in Kent (which is at the intersection of Cherry Street and Mogadore Road). We will be meeting at Pavillion #2 for one service only at 10:30 am. Our service will be fully multigenerational; the whole community is invited to worship and play together.
Please bring a lawnchair (and maybe an extra to share), a dish to share at the picnic (but not dessert as we will have a cake to mark a special occasion), your own place setting, any games you would like to play during the picnic and anything else you will need to be comfortable. And remember, we will have one service only beginning at 10:30 am!
Led by Coming of Age Youth, their Facilitators and their Mentors – Publicly presenting their Faith Statements is the culminating event of the Coming of Age program. The youth have been in discernment all year to determine what they believe and have created an inspiring worship service to present their faith statements. The facilitators and the mentors will share a glimpse into their experiences, as well. This momentous worship service is akin to a Jewish bar or bat Mitzah or a Christian confirmation. Each Coming of Age youth will speak.
