The Earth Is Crying
Rev. Betty and the Chalice Players

This service takes us from a time when the Earth was held in reverence by those people who lived on her surface to a time after our present when the world as we know it has come to an end. We will hear ideas of Chief Seattle, experience a story by Byrd Baylor, and see two original dramatizations by Sloane Powers and Steve Miller. Merlin Snider will provide musical inspiration.

Honoring Our Inner Child
Rev. Betty

Although some did not, many of us had fun-filled childhoods. But as we grew up, we may have lost some of the playfulness and spontaneous joy of those early days. On this Mother’s Day, we will have many voices to help us recapture some of wonder of childhood — past or present. Child Dedication - Contact Rev. Betty if you would like your child or children to be dedicated. Soulstice plays.

Prayer As a Spiritual Practice
Rev. Betty

We Unitarian Universalists often talk about prayer as though it is only a part of our pasts. But we may find ourselves drawn to it in moments of crisis. Is it possible that we may have overlooked its value as a form of spiritual practice for our everyday lives? This service will look at the ways that we can resignify the meaning and experience of prayer for our lives today, without all the baggage of our pasts. Come and see! We will also have a New Member Induction to honor those who have joined our congregation in the last six months.
