This service gives us the space to reflect on the ways that we have been changed as individuals and as a community by the challenges and attendant wisdom gained over the past three years. Music, joy and a New Member Ceremony add to the gift of this gathering.
“The Courage To Be” - led by the Revs. Anya and Scott Sammler-Michael, senior co-ministers. We meet one another on a crooked path and collectively find our way toward freedom. Special guest the Rev. Nancy McDonald Ladd joins our full ministry team for a special service.
"The Courage to Grow "- led by the Rev. Anya Sammler-Michael, senior co-minister. The courage to grow begins with the truth that we are not yet the people we are called to become.
The courage to forgive begins with the truth that we are worthy of forgiveness and that forgiveness is worthy of us. No matter how justified you are in holding on to your anger, forgiveness can be of service.
Rosh Hashanah (Hebrew: רֹאשׁ הַשָּׁנָה, literally "head of the year") is the Jewish New Year. This High Holiday celebration will be co-led by the Rev. Anya Sammler-Michael, senior co-minister and by our congregation’s UUs for Jewish Awareness group.
A sense of belonging is crucial. Belonging is kin to joy and justice. Belonging gives us a sense of purpose and meaning. Focusing on relationships fosters a community where inclusive belonging thrives.
