Upcoming Worship Services
Sundays, 10:30 a.m.
September 12
“Leap to Faith”
The Rev. Dr. Daniel O’Connell, Senior Minister
Orthodox religion tends to conspire against independent thinking. By its very nature, orthodoxy is more interested in certainty, not freedom. But, by trying to see something clearly for ourselves, we can gain new insights not only for ourselves but to share with other people.
September 19
“Talk Like a Pirate Day”
The Rev. Dr. Daniel O’Connell, Senior Minister
In case you missed it, today is a recently minted holiday. Ahoy, avast, aye, and arr. But seriously: is speaking "pirate" easier than speaking UU?
September 26
“A Complaint Free World”
The Rev. Dr. Daniel O’Connell, Senior Minister
What we focus on, we invite. If we focus on what we don’t want and don’t like, we may find ourselves getting more of it anyway. Some seriously challenging spiritual homework today – not for the faint of heart.
