This service will touch upon the diverse aspects of “nature” as it pertains to awe and its affect and effect on us (whether we were looking for it or not). This could occur simply looking at the stars on a crisp dark evening imagining the worlds beyond, watching a whale breach the surface, the chemistry of love developing with another, or contemplating what the nature of what, if anything, may lie beyond the curtains of this world for us.
Albert Einstein said: “There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.” The Christmas story helps us remember the miracle of life and that truly, our every day existence is a miracle. Join us to celebrate Christmas Eve together with carols, community, cookies and candles and a UU interpretation of the Christmas miracle.

In this dispensation of the 21st Century, during this time of so much human hate towards others because of difference in skin color, difference in sexual orientation and difference in gender identity, we need Unitarian Universalism more than ever. In this period of human uncertainty and so much growing desire for self-love, in which racism, nationalism and white supremacy etc. are on the rise, we need new thinking for a new millenium. Join Rev. Mark Kiyimba, minister of the UU Church of Kampala, Uganda for his thoughts on Unitarian Universalism in the 21st century.

Our earth is a glorious gift to us. She is designed with perfect resources and systems that help humanity thrive. But what happens when we mistreat her and do not give back to her? What happens when we cease paying attention to the perfection inherent in our seeds and soil, in our water and air? This Sunday we attend to our earth, honoring her for her life-sustaining gifts. Join us for our annual bread ceremony giving gratitude for the abundance of our earth.

In this service we will explore the many ways breath is used to enhance our sense of personal aliveness, heal what ails us, and, just perhaps, allow us an opening into a realm of spiritual awareness, inaccessible without it.

“We are slowed down sound and light waves, a walking bundle of frequencies tuned into the cosmos…. our bodies are the instruments through which our souls play their music…” wrote Albert Einstein. The first thing we hear in life is our mother’s heartbeat, and we join hers with our own. Our hearts beat a foundational rhythm in our lives. From birth to death, we are making and surrounded by sound, rhythm and music. Join us for an experiential journey as we pay attention to the role of rhythm, sound and music in our lives.
