A Sacred Yes

Sunday, September 29, 2019

Led by Rev. Steven Protzman

Rev. Erik Walker Wikstrom, in his book “Serving With Grace” invites us to only say yes to an opportunity to serve when it aligns with our passions and our gifts.  As we celebrate our annual Shared Ministries Sunday, we will reflect on answering our heart’s calling to serve one another and to join in the congregation’s work of shared ministry.  In the spirit of shared ministry, we will also commission our Board of Trustees. 

Sunday services are offered at 9:45 and 11:30 AM with nursery card available during both services.

Great Expectations

Sunday, September 22, 2019

Led by Rev. Steven Protzman

How often do our expectations of ourselves, our lives, and one another and society’s expectations of us get in the way of living more fully and authentically?  As a community that is held together by covenant rather than creed, what can and should we honestly expect of each other?  The service will explore various aspects of the month’s Soul Matters theme of Expectation.  Following the second service, there will be a theme discussion group in the sanctuary.

Sunday services are offered at 9:45 and 11:30 AM with nursery care available during both services.

Coming Home

Sunday, September 15, 2019

Led by Rev. Steven Protzman

Starhawk says: “We are all longing to go home to some place we have never been.”  If Unitarian Universalism is to truly be a spiritual home, we need to both give and receive radical hospitality, offering to one another what we need to become more fully human and creating a place we have never been.  During this service we will commission and bless our Religious Education teachers and leaders as we begin a new RE year.

Sunday morning services are offered at 9:45 and 11:30 with nursery care available during both services.

The Water Remembers

Sunday, September 8, 2019

Led by Rev. Steven Protzman and Director of Religious Education Colleen Thoele

What is it the water remembers?  What does water invite us to remember?  As we return from our summer adventures bringing water and stories to share, this festive all ages service of water communion and ingathering invites us to bring our lives, our struggles, our hopes and our dreams to this community and join our lives together once again.  Please bring a small amount of water for the water pouring ritual.   

This Sunday we return to two services offered at 9:45 and 11:30 AM with nursery care available during both services.

Poems of the Heart

Sunday, September 1, 2019

Led by Lori McGee and Worship Associate Kathy Kerns

Based on the spiritual practice taught in “Living by Heart,” a course that I will offer this church year, this service explores how poetry can be a doorway into prayer.  Unitarian Universalists don’t typically have memorized prayers as many other religions do.  When I came to UUism, I missed this practice.  “Living by Heart” offers a way to use memorized poems as a meditative and soulful substitute for traditional prayers.  

This Sunday, one service at 10 AM will be offered with nursery care available during the service. On September 8 we return to two Sunday services at 9:45 and 11:30 AM.
