Too often we get bogged down worrying about the way "things might have been." And even though we may have good reasons to regret, at some point we must live the life before us, assuring we do not add new regrets to our history. Join Rev. Scott on a reflection on how to be gentle and kind with ourselves, no matter what mistakes we have made.
We gather again amidst another time of change and challenge to affirm our commitment to community. Water Communion, our annual Ingathering Service, invites all present to share what they bring to and what they need from community.
Today’s service called “People’s Choice” is our annual Question Box service. Questions have been submitted and questions will be solicited from those joining us virtually and those joining us in-person. What are your questions about Unitarian Universalism, Faith, God, Grief, Goodness, Theology, or more? Our Senior Co-Ministers will do their best to answer. Write them down now or when they come to mind. Questions will be solicited during the Offertory.
This service is inspired by “What Is Truth?”, a song written by Country Music legend Johnny Cash in 1970 to share his newfound Truth that the Vietnam War was a mistake, and he needed to help end it. Inspired by Cash, together we will explore notions of truth - how we build it, how we proclaim, how we recognize it. Rev Scott is joined by Rev Anya, Dionne Ford, Michael Gilch, Sam Schumann, Paul Lombardo & Dan Silver. Randy Crafton edits the video, Ann Trip calls and does audio, and Joe Palka monitors the broadcast.
Recognizing the deaths and births in our congregation over the past year.
Join Rev Scott and Dionne Ford Kurtti as they share insights from our Sisters in the Wilderness class. We will explore how to equip one another to tell stories from our particular experience and identities, and the theologies they demonstrate. Even though, as Dr James Cone says, there is no Universal about God, we each have our own individual, rich lens into truth and divinity.
