Dinner at 6pm followed by the Winter Solstice ritual + carol sing-along led by UU Adventurers. We come together to celebrate and honor the wheel of the year, the turning of the earth and thus the changing of the seasons. This is a service in which we honor and celebrate our deep connection to the earth and welcome back the light. This intergenerational service will be outside next to the firepit. Dress warmly. Followed by Hot Apple Cider and Holiday Carol singing with the UU Adventurers.

with Cee Pollard and Elaine Jurs. Music: Ji, piano. On the cusp of a new year, like the god Janus, we look both backward and forward.

...with Caroline Pierce. By this time in January, many people have lost enthusiasm for their new year's resolutions. Tonight we make winter the “season for staying with it.” Soulful Sundown contemplative services are held biweekly on Wednesdays from 7:00 PM to 8:00 PM on Zoom. Each gathering considers a topic offered by that evening’s presenter, who also suggests one or two related questions for silent reflection or meditation. After the quiet, all who wish are invited to share their experiences and insights. Topics vary.
