Unitarian Universalism celebrates diversity as a cornerstone of our shared faith. Today, we will explore how our inclusive principles and values invite us to honor every person’s worth and dignity, build bridges across difference, and create a spiritual home for all. Together, we’ll reflect on the transformative power of truly embracing one another and welcoming all.
In the midst of overlapping climate crises and mounting social injustice, we are in a time of great change and profound anxiety. Taking a note from those who have gone before us, the UUA Climate Justice Revival is meant to be a time to come together and re-commit. Join Chalice and hundreds of other UU congregations all over the country for a time of renewal and re-commitment at the intersection of the climate crisis and the deep justice commitments of our congregation.
As we honor the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., and embark on a new presidential term, we draw inspiration from Dr. King’s profound mental strength in the face of relentless adversity. His unwavering commitment to justice and hope offers us a guide for navigating times of uncertainty and fear. In a season when the future feels precarious, we’ll explore how we can cultivate resilience, courage, and purpose, drawing strength from our shared values and our vision of a more just and compassionate world. Together, we will reflect on how to stand strong, as Dr. King did, for the road ahead.
On this Sunday after our country’s election we gather as a Beloved Community, however we are feeling. No matter what, we are more resilient, hopeful, and courageous together. Come one, come all. You are welcome here. Join us to feel the support of friends and community.

Our work ethic culture encourages us to keep pushing on, working hard, and getting things done. But sometimes, particularly when the path ahead is unclear, it helps to take a pause, reflect, and listen deeply within. Join us today to explore the uncomfortable tension of pausing amidst the need to progress.

In June, our Annual Unitarian Universalist General Assembly took place on line. Our denomination voted to place Love at the Center of how we articulate our faith. Join us to hear about what’s going on at a national level and learn more about current trends in Unitarian Universalism. This is Rev. Nica’s last service before her summer break.
July 7th marks our first service in our new temporary Sanctuary in Fellowship Hall. No matter where we are, we, the people, are Chalice. With our world in disarray, it is important we shine our light wherever we are. Join us in person to experience the joy of using our building in a new way. You can experience the service live in our Sanctuary or sit with friends on sofas in our new Lounge or Nest and enjoy the service on screens, partaking in communal rituals all together. And of course, we continue to offer online zoom services. Welcome to our new way of worshipping together.
Today, we renew our commitment to each other and our community. We hear inspiring stories from long time members who share tales from their years at Chalice. Join us for these stories of our history, as we prepare for our next chapter. We’ll also be celebrating our newest Chalice members in today’s service!
