Events for week of November 30, 2025

with Rev. Tracy Sprowls. Jan Richardson, the writer, artist, and minister writes, “You hardly knew how hungry you were to be gathered in, to receive the welcome that invited you to enter entirely—nothing of you found foreign or strange, nothing of your life that you were asked to leave behind or to carry in silence or in shame.” We visit this theme often, but this morning we go a little deeper into what sanctuary means in today’s political climate.

Each week our kids gather to explore our world in light of our UU values. Pre-K/K friends will engage in guided exploration of various topics with their wonderful teachers, Sue Smith and Rocky Landers, downstairs in Room D.

We face transitions all the time from getting up in the morning after a night's rest to retiring from a job to losing a loved one. Transitions are everywhere and they are everyday. What questions do you carry with you for those life changing transitions? What hopes or fears find their way into your consciousness? What can you offer others as they face their own transitions? This is a time to connect deeply and richly about the transitions, good and bad, in our lives.

Rev. Tracy visits with the residents of Foxdale on the third Friday of each month. The meetings are free-flowing conversations on topics ranging from Unitarian Universalism to local news and world issues.
