Bless Our Pets

Bring your pets, bring a picture or bring your open hearts. We will be worshipping outside for this special service where we honor our pets, the special roles they have in our lives and how they make us better humans. While we will have some chairs setup, we encourage you to bring your own chairs. Also, as this is an outdoor event, don't forget to bring water and a sunhat. No umbrellas please.

Characters on the Couch

There is nothing to be learned from children's television. Cookie monster, Elmo and their friends have no spiritual message for you, and going to counseling isn't useful at all for our younger generation. Join us as we share how the youth of UUCP can prove us wrong.

Do Ask, Do Tell

Major Margaret Witt was responsible for bringing down the U.S. military's anti-gay "Don't Ask Don't Tell" policy, and also happens to be a close friend of Rev. Christine's. Join us to hear how she found a new purpose in fighting against discrimination, and to think about the work we have left to do. Immediately following the service, we will have our Mid-Year Congregational Update.

My Body Isn’t Broken, Your Faith Is

Ancient religions have taught us so many harmful things about disabled bodies being "broken" and needing to be healed. Like many things from our old beliefs, this is one that needs to be actively explored and challenged. We will explore what religions have taught about disabilities and how we can reform them to recognize the wholeness and worth of every single person, as our faith calls us to do.
