Sunday, April 28th new members will be welcomed into our congregation. The sermon for the week is “Renewing Our Covenant.” Rev. Margaret Beckman says that Unitarian Universalists are united through our covenants; the promises we make with each other and the spirit that enlivens us. With new members, we become a new congregation; and this is a good time to renew our promises and agreements.
Morning service is at 10:30 followed by Coffee Hour at 11:30. Come for either or both gatherings and bring a friend.

On the heels of Easter, communities across our country observed Earth Day. This Sunday we’ll honor the Earth again in our RE gathering, reading The Great Kapok Tree by Lynne Cherry. In this lovely story, creatures in the Amazon Rain Forest speak to the value of a great tree in their lives, which are very different from one another. What they share has powerful impact.
After talking about this story, we’ll learn the Elm Dance, which eco-activist Joanna Macy teaches to every group she works with.
Come, light our chalice, and talk about the sacred work of caring for our Earth.
