Guest: Rev. Katherine James Klemstine.

In the ancient Hindu spiritual writings, the Upanishads, it is written: "There is a Light that shines beyond all things on earth, beyond the heavens, the very highest heavens. This is the light that shines in out heart." The question being asked today, the first Sunday in Summer, is how are we able to see and believe in that light within ourselves? And once we have a vision of the light that shines in our heart, what can our response be to the rest of the world?

Being a good father - for that matter, a good parent - has never been easy. For some, it's all "on the job training". For others, they look for models, often developing a composite. Join Rev. Fred Muir, Sr. Minister, for a look at fathering and parenting.

Our Intern Minister, Christina Leone, explores what it means to be human, with dignity and worth.

My sermon title comes from Albert Einstein: “Science without religion is lame. Religion without science is blind.” Join me as I explore how so many are bridging the much touted chasm between science and religion. Can we keep one foot in both places?

Sunday's guest speaker, Paula Cole-Jones of ADORE, A Dialogue on Race and Ethnicity.

ADORE is central to UUCA continuing the journey toward becoming a congregation where differences in ethnicity are not only welcomed but celebrated. ADORE's purpose and practice is to meet regularly in a trusting and respectful environment to continue learning to face and talk respectfully on matters relating to racism and to continue to learn how racism is manifested in our society.

Today, Rev. John T. Crestwell, Jr. will look at Malcolm Gladwell's book "Blink", and analyze why first impressions do matter and how they help and hurt our relationships with others.

We regroup after the meatballs set off the fire alarm and close the service out with joyful singing and praise!

Part 3 includes the very moving and emotional charge from Rev. Fred Muir, Senior Minister to the Associate Minister.

President Morales' very sobering, honest and reflective sermon was a highlight.

It was a powerful day full of surprises (a fire alarm), great singing from "Kirby Lane", and motivating speakers, including Rev. Peter Morales, President of the Unitarian Universalist Association. Great things are happening at UUCA! Visit us soon!
