Upcoming Services
March 5 - Finding Sanctuaries
In stressful times, we often look for or try to create places that will offer us respite from what seem to be impossible demands. This sermon will look at where we can find the energy for renewal and what realistic expectations we can bring to such places or times.
March 12 - Animals: Gods and Guardians
In one way or another, human beings have long respected the mystery of the power animals have, even while dominating these same animals. What do some of our religious roots and everyday practices reveal about the spirituality of animals?
March 19 - Celtic Joy
Revisiting the earliest beliefs of Celtic spirituality can reinforce many of the insights often expressed in Unitarian Universalism. “Celtic Joy” will offer a view of these two spiritualities and how they relate to each other.
March 26 - Reclaiming What We Will Become: Community, Notre Dame & The Lessons of Fire
Today we welcome Rev. Janet Newton to our pulpit. Rev. Newton graduated from Meadville Lombard in 2018 and is presently serving in Martha’s Vineyard.
