September’s Worship Theme: Embracing Possibilities

Ingathering Sunday: Water Ceremony

September 12, 2021 | 10:00 am

UCM Worship Team

On Sunday, September 12, we will gather once again as a whole church community into our shared life of worship and spiritual practice. Though we gather from different places, we will join together on this Ingathering Sunday to reconnect with one another and to honor the various roles of water in our lives with our annual Water Ceremony.

To participate in this ceremony, you are invited to have a vessel of drinkable water near you during the service. You can also send in a “selfie” photo or short video (5-10 seconds) of yourselves with your water or near the source of the water with personal meaning to you to be included in the service. These photos and short videos will be compiled into a slideshow and debuted after the Water Ceremony.  Please send submissions to ucm.worship.arts@gmail.com by Friday, September 10.

A Wrinkle in Our Time

Verdis LeVar Robinson, UCM Ministerial Intern

No one likes wrinkles. Whether in our clothing or elsewhere. Is it possible to accept them and just move on, or does our culture of perfection hinder us from doing so? We are experiencing a wrinkle in our time right now.  Let’s explore acceptance and embracing the possibilities of what’s to come.

Embracing an Eighth Principle

Verdis LeVar Robinson and the Racial Justice Group

Last annual meeting, the Racial Justice Group introduced the possibility of a congregational adoption of an Eighth Principle.  In this service, we will dive deeper into embracing the principle and what it will mean for our congregation, our communities, and Unitarian Universalism.
