Sunday, November 1, 2020

A virtual service led by Rev. Steven Protzman and Worship Associate Heidi Emhoff-Wood.

The poet Rabindranath Tagore wrote: “Peace, my heart, let the time for parting be sweet. Let it not be a death but completeness. Let love melt into memory and pain into songs.” In keeping with the many spiritual traditions of remembrance during this time of the year, we will once again remember and honor our beloved dead with music, rituals and stories as we invite love to melt into memory and pain into songs.

I Sing of America

Posted on by MaryBeth Hannan

Sunday, October 25, 2020

A virtual service led by Rev. Steven Protzman and Worship Associate Rev. Christie Anderson

Walt Whitman once called America “The Greatest Poem”. He believed that the power of poetry and democracy came from an ability to bring many different people and ideas together. As the election draws near, we will reflect on our Fifth Principle, the use of the democratic process, our Sixth Principle, the goal of world community with peace, liberty and justice for all people, and our dream of a nation that may yet be one people.

What I Learned at KentHogwarts

Posted on by MaryBeth Hannan

Sunday, October 18, 2020

Led by the KentHogwarts Board of Governors and Worship Associate Lady Lovemore

KentHogwarts is a program for children and youth where we use the magical universe of Harry Potter as a foundation to explore our Unitarian Universalist principles.  On October 18th, don your wizardly attire and have your wands (or pointer fingers) at the ready as we dig deeper into the lessons we have learned while offering KentHogwarts, a Ministry of the Unitarian Universalist Church of Kent.

We Can DUU It!

Posted on by MaryBeth Hannan

Sunday, October 11, 2020

A virtual service led by Rev. Steven Protzman and Worship Associate Camille Pavlicek-Fauser.

Cultural icon Rosie the Riveter represents the women who worked in factories and shipyards during World War II, many of whom produced munitions and war supplies while the men went off to war. To kick off our annual Treats and Talents auction with its theme of “We Can Duu It”, we will honor the life of Rosie and other women with songs and stories and reflect on how we join in the work we are called to do.
