For most of our worship services beginning in the spring of 2020, we have video recordings of the full worship service and of just the sermon available for you to watch.
Earth Day: Hope or Palliative Care?
While Earth Day is often about how much we love nature, animals, and specific actions we can take, this year, we must acknowledge that we're at a critical point, and possibly a point of no return. When it comes to climate justice, where do we find hope? And, if we can't, how do we prepare for the crises that will continue to increase?
Easter: Resurrecting Joy and Hats
Prepare your most creative, fun or outrageous Easter "bonnets." We'll be talking about why Easter is such a celebration for Christians and have a little joy and celebration ourselves with our own little Easter Parade.
White Supremacy Culture: Conflict and Comfort
As we continue living into our 8th Principle, we'll explore one of the hardest characteristics of White Supremacy Culture—the avoidance of conflict and the need for comfort. We'll talk about what that means for us individually and as a community.
Explorations of Ramadan
Sunset on Saturday, April 2, marks the beginning of the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, a time for fasting, prayer, and recommitment. What can that faith tradition teach us who are not Muslim? In a word, and a difficult one, "submission".
Flower Communion
As we conclude our Stewardship month, we will celebrate this community with our beloved Flower Communion, held at the height of Arizona's blooming season. In our Flower Communion, we bring flowers and take a different flower in an act of community. If you are willing and able, feel free to bring a flower or flowers and bring it to the front of the sanctuary at the beginning of service. If you don’t have flowers, we will have plenty for you.
Bless Our Pets
For many of us, our pets keep us grounded, connected, and amused. Today, we take the opportunity to bless them and thank them for the important roles they've had in our lives. For those attending in person, your well-behaved pets are welcome to come for an in-person blessing.
