We at Chalice are like one big village. We support one another from birth through death, going through life’s ups and downs together. Today, we celebrate all the many volunteers that make our community thrive. Chalice could not exist without all of you. If you are involved in any activity at Chalice, please come this Sunday to be honored and celebrated. It takes a village to build and maintain a wonderful community like this.
In March, we were told this lockdown would likely last 2 – 3 weeks. Here we are at the end of August, with the pandemic still raging and our lives continuing to be socially distanced. If this new way of living continues for a while longer, what strategies could we embrace to make it through as individuals and a community? Join us to explore strategies for the long haul.
Today we will be blessing the animals in our lives. Please have them present with you in service, or bring their photo, if you would like to have them blessed. Please bring photos of any beloved animals who have passed and whom you wish to memorialize. We look forward to celebrating the difference animals make in our lives.
Czech dissident and President, Vaclav Havel, wrote in “The Power of the Powerless” that: “Hope is not a prognostication – it’s an orientation of the spirit….” How do we orient our spirit towards hope when there is so much in our world right now that feels hopeless and scary? What resources do we need to draw on to orient our spirit towards hope? In this service, Rev Nica will explore how to turn our internal compass in the direction of hope.
Several members of Chalice attended our annual General Assembly virtually this year. Join us to hear stories and impressions from this first ever completely virtual GA.
This Father’s Day we honor the men in our lives who value compassion in their parenting, work and lives. For so long society has praised power and strength in men as opposed to compassion and kindness. Join Reverend Nica, and Chalice members Matt Petras, Raul Ballesteros and Tim Snowber to celebrate the power of being a compassionate man.
Service Sunday on Zoom at 10 a.m.
This week’s service focuses on celebrating the gift of music. Music that heals, uplifts, and comforts us during this time.

As we gradually come out of isolation and step into a very different reality, what’s the world we want to create now? What changes from our distancing time do we want to embrace? What will we bring with us? What will we leave behind? Join us to explore the question of what’s next.

Are you feeling scared of getting ill with the virus? Are you fretting about your immune system or eating more than you usually do? Or are you sitting more in meetings and watching more TV than usual? Our bodies may be more vulnerable than usual during this time because of our change in rhythms and the possibility of getting sick. This service will help us connect our minds and hearts to our bodies and focus on listening more deeply within.
