"How Many Shapes of Water Are There?" — led by the Revs. Anya and Scott Sammler-Michael, senior co-ministers. There are as many shapes of water as there are experiences of ultimate truth. As the poet Rumi shares, "there are hundreds of ways to kneel and kiss the ground." In this service we celebrate this diversity. The first of our Series on the Six Sources.

Welcoming Grief
"Welcoming Grief"— led by the Rev. Anya Sammler-Michael, senior co-minister. Grief is a universal experience, but no one experiences grief in the same way. Sages remind us to welcome grief in the same way that we welcome a stranger, without expectation or pretense.
Just Be You
"Just Be You"— led by the Rev. Anya Sammler-Michael, senior co-minister. The bees are necessary to sustain our ecosystem. So are you. Attending to our interdependence, we find resilience for ourselves and our communities.

A Question Box service where participants are invited to ask the ministers their most pressing questions of faith, theology, ethics, and more.
Another Day of Living
“Another Day of Living” — led by the Rev. Anya Sammler-Michael, senior co-minister. The Unitarian Universalist tradition is also known as "The Living Tradition." A living tradition is malleable - attuned to new revelation and unapologetically transformable. This day of living is for a soft truth that we can transform with our will and attention. May it be beautiful!
Chaos and Order: The Making of a World
“Chaos and Order — led by the Rev. Anya Sammler-Michael, senior co-minister. The Making of the World” According to the stories of most religious traditions, chaos and order bring the world into being. Chaos and order combine in the act of creation. Our service celebrates and evaluates the ways that this truth touches us as metaphor and reality. This service also elevates the work of motherhood, itself an un-ebbing creative act.
