“Hope Matters”
"Hope Matters"— led by the Rev. Sherman Logan. Sometimes, the weight of the world can feel overwhelming, testing our spirit. We witness suffering, chaos, violence, greed, hatred, and a lack of empathy and compassion all around us. It’s natural to feel like giving up and surrendering to hopelessness. Yet, even in the bleakest moments, hope matters. It is the guiding light that shines brightest in our darkest times.

“Imagining Ourselves into Community”
"Imagining Ourselves into Community"— led by the Rev. Craig Rubano. At the heart of Unitarian Universalist congregational authority is covenant, a distinctly different form of power from creedal adherence, and one that requires a wellspring of imagination. This morning, we whet our imaginative appetites for co-creation—shared intentionality, harmony, and truth—as we ongoingly imagine ourselves more deeply into Beloved Community.

“Beloved: A Redamancy of Fugitivity”
"Beloved: A Redamancy of Fugitivity" — led by the Rev. Jé Hooper. As a community of faith and mindfulness, the word “beloved” has become a signature term of UU endearment that emphasizes the hope of unity and equality as passed down from our theological ancestors, Josiah Royce, Howard Thurman, and Martin Luther King Jr. To be Beloved or in Beloved Community has bound us together to radical ideals of belonging. Join Rev. Jé as they apply the work of Toni Morrison’s book Beloved as a way to examine a fugitivity of affection, a way to love others in their freedom of becoming.

“Trusting the Truth: Towards A Theology of Repair”
"Trusting the Truth: Towards A Theology of Repair" — led by the Rev. Scott Sammler-Michael, senior co-minister. Like "Trust," " Truth" is a big word. We live many truths, as human beings have diverse gifts. We each see different pieces of reality - we see some more readily than others. Being in Covenanted Community allows us to learn from one another. Join us this Sunday as we explore how we Repair the World together, every day.
