Radical Hospitality
We all want a place where we can feel known and part of a community. How can we be a congregation that welcomes all, both friend and stranger?
Speaker: Rev. Dr. Terasa Cooley
Ingathering (start of 2 services)
“From Me to We” What does it mean to be part of a religious community? In this annual “Ingathering” service we will use ritual to help us explore coming together as something greater as a whole.
Women & Religion
Much of the current conservative attitudes about women are derived from religious thought, particularly old Christian thought. Let’s take a deep dive into that history and current manifestations.
Question Box Service
Do you have a question about Unitarian Universalism, religion, this congregation, ethics, ministry, or anything related? Rev. Terasa will try to field all comers! Submit them in advance [HERE] (opens in new window) or bring them to the service. The worship theme for July is “Summer Services”.
Why Church?
Why Church? When community is so abundantly available and people are so lonely, we need to not only ask “why church”, but “how church”. Come explore how and why we gather through story and song. The worship theme for June is “Renewal”.
Reflections On Ministry
Join Rev. Dr. Terasa Cooley and Rev. Dr. Marco Belletini as they reflect on their ministries and each celebrate a landmark anniversary (35 years in ministry for Terasa, and 45 years for Marco)! Join us for a reception in Beach Hall after the service. The worship theme for May is “Pluralism”.
Squares & Blobs
What does the future of church look like? What can we learn from our recent challenges that help us to face a different future? The worship theme for May is “Pluralism”.
It’s Not Just for Children Anymore
Last week we celebrated the Religious Exploration program and what it promotes. I’d like to talk a bit more about a theory of why religious exploration is important for all of us, not just the young ones. The worship theme for May is “Pluralism”.
Weaving the Web of Community
As we launch our Stewardship Campaign to ask for your commitments to the next church year, we will explore the values we are asking you to invest in, and what coming together as a community can look like. The worship theme for April is “Interdependence”.
Sunday Service (Easter)
The Easter story is often told in the Christian tradition as the story of bodily resurrection. But the oldest gospel, the Gospel of Mark, leaves us with just the empty tomb. What can resurrection mean in the spiritual sense? The worship theme for March is “Transformation”.
