  • 2.5.23 Death by a Thousand Paper Cuts

    This Sunday, we begin to explore our individual and communal stories and journeys. What gets in the way of our stories integrating and connecting? In this service, we invite a tender-hold of what we wrestle with, of the ways in which we've been hurt in religious/spiritual communities. Being in a space where we wrestle with a both/and is OK and part of allowing transition to happen.

  • 1.29.23 Soil, Soul, and Story

    With Rev. Sarah Gettie McNeill  

    Soils tell the stories of a place, bearing remnants of past actions of its inhabitants.  From soils, we can learn of the past’s weather from year to year or glean how healthy the microbiome is. And soil allows for so much creativity! From lush gardens to the mud pies of children, soil is full of potential. If we were to look at the soils of UUCCI – both literal and metaphorical – what would we find?

  • 1.22.23 On Second Glance: Becoming a Community that Welcomes Change & Transitions

    With Elizabeth Valencia-Gutierrez

    This Sunday, we continue on the topic of change and transition and extend it to the community. How do we cultivate curiosity for the journeys of others, here at UUCCI and outside of our community? How do we cultivate as a community the ability to let others continue to change and transition?

  • 1.15.23 Side with Love: What is Love Calling You to Do? (All Ages Service)

    With Adrienne Summerlot and Kevin Altevog  

    We are always learning, growing, and evolving in our own understanding of what it means to be a Unitarian Universalist.  Love, however, is always central to putting our UU values into action.  In this service designed for All Ages to participate together, we will sing, share stories, and reflect on words from Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. that call us to work for justice and liberation year round.

  • 1.8.23 Part 1: Before We Begin - On Change and Transitions

    We begin with Elizabeth Valencia-Gutierrez by reflecting on change and transition. Author William Bridges made a distinction between change and transitions. Bridges writes, "without a transition, a change is just a rearrangement of the furniture. Unless transition happens, the change won't work, because it doesn't 'take'. Whatever word we use, our society talks a lot about change; but it seldom deals with transition."

  • 11.27.22 The Challenge of Beloved Community

    Our Minister Emeritus, Rev. Dennis McCarty, will return to speak on "The Challenge of Beloved Community." It's easy to talk about equality and diversity. But actually listening to people with different cultural experience--forming a truly diverse community--can be difficult. Rev. Dennis will share some of his cultural struggles, as well as his thoughts on the Unitarian Universalist Association's proposed changes to our Seven Principles.

  • 11.13.22 - Asparagus Espiratus: Harvesting the Fruits of Our labor

    Marge Piercy says, "Every gardener knows that after the digging, after the planting, after the long season of tending and growth, the harvest comes." Rev. Nic concludes our six-part Life Roots Sermon Series, as we celebrate the fruits of our labor and the aspirations we have for the coming year. On this Generosity Sunday, we are invited to appreciate the gardener's patience, as embodied in the wisdom and spirit of asparagus.
