A virtual service led by Rev. Steven Protzman and Worship Associate Elaine Yehle Bowen

Lammas, also known as Lughnasadh, is a Pagan celebration that marks the first harvest of fruits, grains and vegetables.  As we honor our sixth source of spiritual wisdom, earth-centered traditions which teach us celebrate the sacred circle of life and to live in harmony with the rhythms of nature, we will give thanks for the earth’s abundance and reflect on the importance of nurturing our spiritual lives to have strength for life’s journey.

My family and I left Hawaii when I was 8 1/2 years old, 3 weeks before the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor.  I met Ted Voneida, my husband during the Korean War.  Together, we protested the many unnecessary wars after that.  Our Japanese friends led us to understand the tole of war on their country as well.  Now Japan is our ally, showing peace is possible if we are wise.

A virtual service led by Elaine Yehle Bowen and Worship Associate Lori McGee.

Exploring a religion you know little about is a bit like putting your toe in the water to test how comfortable it might be. I put my toe into the waters of Judaism last summer and liked what I felt. This is my story of exploration and understanding of Judaism through a curious UU’s lens.

A virtual service led by Nicole Penny and Worship Associate Lori McGee.

The COVID-19 pandemic has my family, a family who considers ourselves to be a “church” family, not going to church or participating in many church groups because we don’t have a physical building to go to. We haven’t turned our backs on church, but we have a hard time participating. Yet, we live our faith and find ways to create justice in our personal worlds. We still live our principles and find our peace. This service will discuss the hardships of living faith in the pandemic. It will discuss how a little creativity can still bring faith and peace into a Unitarian Universalist home.
