Childcare is available on Sunday mornings during the service, at congregational meetings and BPOC events, teacher trainings and UU orientations. Unfortunately funds are not available to cover committees or other events. If you need childcare for a special event, ask your committee or group leader if the group can help fund it. Please see the "Organizing Childcare" document for costs and procedures.

Sunday March 14 — two services, 9am & 11am
Renewing Faith Amid the Rubble
Rev. Stephen Ames

      Every day we may learn about the latest violence in Afganistan and Iraq, Darfur and Congo. We may have personal knowledge of this or other violence. What does this destruction mean for our religious faith: our theology, our hope, our commitment? Guided by the essays of Rev. Dr. Rebecca Parker, President of Starr King School for the Ministry, Rev. Stephen will explore these questions as we approach the seventh anniversary of the U.S. invasion of Iraq.

Sunday March 21 — two services, 9am & 11am
Bound for a Place Called Earth

Rev. Stephen Ames

      Science Fiction Myths from Star Trek to (the new) Battlestar Gallectica.  Joseph Campbell wrote, "A myth is a public dream. A dream is a private myth." We will explore evolving science fiction myths over the last forty years and what they tell us about our real life predicaments.

March 28 — two services, 9am & 11am
“The Fool Speaks”

Jake Walsh, Worship Associate
Fool and Assistant Fool to be named later

Chalice Choir, Tom Sears, director; Lynn Smith, pianist
 
    April Fools, Jesters and all who speak uncomfortable truths can help us see our blind spots. Presented with humor, there can be relief in identifying the "Elephant in the Room". However, it's not without risk—many fools have lost their heads!
