Led by Hal Walker, Mike Hovancsek and “Kenge Kenge”

There has been a major change in our plan for this Sunday morning’s service.  A wonderful group of musicians from Kenya are in town for the week and they are looking forward to joining us and leading our Sunday morning service.Please join Hal Walker, Mike Hovancsek and “Kenge Kenge” in a very special and unique worship service this Sunday morning at 10:00 am. 

Kenge Kenge Orutu System isa unique Nairobi-based group whose music draws on the traditional roots of the Luo people of western Kenya, giving ancient songs new life by infusing them with the spirit of benga, Kenya’s indigenous popular music form.

Since its formation in 1998, Kenge Kenge (whose name means “a fusion of small, exhilarating instruments”) has performed on five continents, at such venues and festivals as Lincoln Center, the Smithsonian Folklife Festival, the American Folk Festival, WOMAD, WOMEX, the Rainforest World Music Festival, and NPR’s “All Things Considered.”

The 5-member ensemble uses such instruments as the orutu (1-string fiddle), nyatiti (8-string lyre), oporo (cow horn), and asili (end-blown flute), and a variety of traditional percussion instruments, along with joyful traditional singing and dancing.

Summer Sunday service is offered at 10 AM with nursery care available during the service.

The United States incarcerates more people than any country in the world.  Our criminal justice policies have created and exacerbated deep divisions in human relations.  Because 90% of people will eventually leave prison, it is important that we recognize the inherent worth and dignity of every person returning to society.  Using the creative work of incarcerated writers and artists as the readings and sermon, this service will create connections between the incarcerated and those on the outside.

Summer worship services are offered on Sunday mornings at 10 AM. Nursery care is available during all services.

Is there such a thing as the gay agenda?  Do GLBTQ people want “special rights”?  Is UUCK a “gay church” as some people have described it?  As our quest for truth continues and we celebrate Pride Sunday, the real gay agenda will be revealed and with it, Unitarian Universalism’s agenda:  to promote the inherent worth and dignity of every person and continue our work to create a world free from bigotry and hatred.

Summer worship if offered at 10 AM on Sunday mornings. Nursery care is available during the service.

As Unitarian Universalists, we do not agree on the issue of abortion but our first principle calls us to affirm the right of every woman to make their own choices about their bodies and their families.  Our faith also calls us to work toward a compassionate society where children are wanted and loved, and welcomed into of a safe community where we care for their needs.  This service will examine what it means to be Pro Faith, Pro Family, Pro Choice.

One service at 10 am with nursery care available.
