There are so many stressors in our lives. Some that connect to our identities and others that are experienced because of our current living situation. Layer on the reality of living with the unconscionable policies and actions of the current administration and changes at church, and it’s hard to know where to find your grounding. Revs. Laura and Jen will reflect on spiritual practices and how they can impact our own daily lives and the lives of the communities we are part of.

The Rev. Jim Foti will be a guest in the pulpit today.
This church is special – and so are all the rest. Unitarian Universalist congregations develop their own customs and cultures and face challenges that range from unique to ubiquitous. Come hear roving Rev. Jim Foti’s stories and perspectives as we consider the many ways our movement embodies pluralism.

We talk a lot about community here, but what exactly do we mean, and how is a spiritual community different from the other communities we belong to? This Sunday, we’ll continue our conversation about a Unitarian Universalist take on spiritual community – what it is, why it matters, and how it invites us to be together.

We say often at church – in worship and beyond – that when we all share what we have, we can all have what we need. Join us this Sunday to celebrate Disability Pride Month through reflections on mutual aid, debt abolition, and community care. Remember: even when our systems fail, we’ve got us.

A cornerstone of Unitarian Universalist theology is that revelation is not sealed. We will explore what that means, how it informs current Unitarian Universalism, and what is the invitation for each of you.

Several months ago, when I found myself stuck in more than a little bit of heart ache over the state of the world, the country, and our city, a friend offered up an antidote to the despair. They were words she, too, had received from a friend. “Fill your life with life,” they said. And this is what I have been doing. In ways big and small, I am filling my life with life. Welcoming in and creating joy and connection. Fostering experiences of Beloved Community in the here and now. Today, grounded in the wisdom of our ancestors, we will fill our worship time with life, with joy, with connection, liberation, and hope. Let’s fill our life with life, together.

Music is a profound spiritual and liberatory practice. Gathering together in our bodies, making beautiful and primal sounds, and hearing those sounds weave together into something grander and more exquisite reminds us of our inherent worth and of the extraordinary possibilities available to us when we live and co-create with love and care. Join us this as we make joyful noise together and explore liberation through music, led by Director of Music Paolo Debuque.

This Sunday we celebrate our oldest youth in Bridging, the Unitarian Universalist ritual that marks our youth’s transition into adulthood. Join us to honor them as they take their place among us as adults in our faith tradition, and to consider the places we are all always taking in the circle of things.
