Sunday, May 4, 2025, 11 a.m. — Service: Flower Ceremony, Rev. Diana Davies
The first Flower Ceremony was held in Prague, Czechoslovakia, in June 1923, led by Rev. Norbert Čapek. For over 100 years, this beloved tradition and its powerful history have provided meaning to UU congregations around the world. In this ceremony, everyone in the congregation brings a flower. Each person places a flower in a shared vase. The congregation and minister bless the flowers, and they’re redistributed. Please join us for this joyous celebration of diverse community.
Sunday, May 11, 2025, 11 a.m. — Sharing Circle: Pot of Gold
A pot of gold at the end of the rainbow can mean many things. Something that’s hard to achieve, a waste of time, or impossible to find. Sometimes it’s a hard path — seemingly impossible, but at the end of it, for you, a Eureka moment — something you’ve learned and finally understood. Have you found your pot of gold? What is it?
Sunday, May 18, 2025, 11 a.m. — Service: 200 Years of Unitarianism: Celebrating the Bicentennial of the American Unitarian Association, Rev. Diana Davies
The American Unitarian Association was founded on May 26, 1825. Among other things, this move required the brave embracing of a scandalous word, “Unitarian.” Today, we look back on 200 years of Unitarianism, not as an exercise in reciting dry history but in seeking examples from our past for ways to face today’s challenges with commitment, courage, and active hope.
