...with Virginia Hubbs No matter our political inclination, we consider personal and interpersonal practices to help navigate personal stress or anxiety during these ongoing controversial times in our political landscape.
...with Rev. Tracy Sprowls. Our theme this month is thresholds. Thresholds mark the moments when we move from one state of being to another. Thresholds are those liminal spaces between one thing and the next. Our question we consider this morning is can people be thresholds?
...with Gretchen Kuldau and members of the Board Sharing our stories is a threshold into who we are, what has shaped us, our hopes and dreams. This morning, we kick off a year of storytelling that will shape a new mission and vision and which culminates in our 75th anniversary on May 4.
...with Linda Bryce. We recall adages and sayings learned from our families—or other sources—and how the words influenced—or don’t—how we understand and approach life.

with Elaine Jurs, Helen Dempsey, Jennifer Glick, Ken Riznyk, and Ashley Hamlin. Through readings, stories, and music, we reflect on the High Holy Days of the Jewish Faith, and what they mean for us in our everyday lives. The choir will sing!
...with George Dempsie. We ask how we might let times of aloneness grow into solitude and not into loneliness.
with Rev. Tracy Belonging may be about being part of something greater than ourselves and yet often our culture turns belonging into a material transaction- such as, this belongs to me. On October 13, we honor Indigenous People’s Day with a service that considers the question who does the land belong to? What should we be considering around land issues where some believe the land belongs to them and others believe they belong to the land?
with Rev. Tracy Sprowls How do we create the biggest and widest circle of inclusivity? How do we welcome all when we feel unsafe or unsure? Does radical hospitality encourage and support belonging or can it still leave some out? On October 20, we will celebrate our animal companions with our annual animal blessing. For this service, people are welcome to bring well-behaved animals either leashed or secured in a carrier. We also encourage pictures of animals (alive or deceased) and stuffed lovies too. If you are uncomfortable with animals, please join us on zoom!
...with Chas Brua. If the legend is to be believed, the oldest poem in English was written by an illiterate cowherd who became a poet overnight after an inspiring dream. In this service, we'll explore our own untapped gifts.
