What is the place of wonder in our lives? What has wonder done for us lately?

For over 40 years, Unitarian Universalists have worked from a core expression of our values as named in seven Principles and six Sources. Now we are asked to consider a whole new version of what calls us on. See https://www.uua.org/uuagovernance/committees/article-ii-study-commission

On this Sunday after the elections, we explore what it means to live in a divided time and hold true to a democratic process. The Fall Congregational Meeting is after the service.

We begin this month·s theme of the Path of Change by addressing it directly. William Bridges offers a guide on how to make sense of change, even when everything is in flux.

At this time of year, many cultures and faiths set aside time for when the veil between the living and the dead grows thin. This year we will remember those who have died from the lens of Halloween and Earth-centered traditions. We will have time to share the names of beloved dead at this multi-generational service.

The mission of this congregation includes the call to grow spiritually. What does spiritual growth mean to you? What do we offer and what would you like to explore? Bring your answers to this special service.
