Worship Service -
  10:00 AM

Corner Forum -
  11:15 AM

Morning Blessings

Morning Blessings” is a facilitated, reverent time before services to light a candle, share a joy or sorrow, and be in contemplative community together.

Please join us at 9:45 am in the sanctuary every Sunday. All ages are encouraged to participate; please help children to respect the quiet space at that time.

Corner Forum

The Corner Forum is a lively discussion group that meets after service at 11:15 in the corner of the church.

Discussions are provocative, opinionated, sometimes-argumentative, always interesting. Often we start out sharing feelings about the just-completed service, then go to any topic anyone wants to discuss. Please join us!

Our Affirmation

From all that dwell below the skies
Let songs of hope and faith arise;
Let peace, goodwill on earth be sung
Through every land by every tongue.

All ages are invited to attend our worship service. Near the beginning of the service the younger children are invited to come to the front of the sanctuary to hear the children's story. After that, the congregation sings them to Children's Chapel. Middle School and High School students are encouraged to stay for the remainder of the service in sanctuary.

Anything said at our services is for your intellectual and spiritual stimulation; no one is asked to agree or acquiesce to any doctrine or creed. Instead, you are free to seek the truth for yourself according to the dictates of your own reason and conscience. All are encouraged to give input and suggestions for speakers as it is a vital part of our church's spiritual growth.

Why Can't They Just...?
Margaret Anderson

 

 …be more logical? 

…prevent the problem now instead of waiting to repair its effects? 

…see that there’s a pattern here? 

When people frustrate us, when we can’t fathom their decisions and actions, temperament differences often play a role.  Groups can have temperaments too. Explore the group personalities of different religions, what they say about our roles in society, and how we can communicate better with those who differ from us.

Faith in Tension
Dr. Ken Shuman

 

 “Faith is as much about questions as it is about answers.  It is possible to be a believer and a listener at the same time, to be both fervent & searching, to honor the truth of one’s own convictions and the mystery of the convictions of others.”  Krista Tippett in Speaking of Faith.

Who Really Are Our Neighbors?
Brian Ferguson, Minister, San Marcos Unitarian Universalist Fellowship

 

Unitarian Universalists like good questions, possibly even more than good answers. Most people in North American culture are familiar with Jesus’ parable of the Good Samaritan. What many people forget is the question that prompted Jesus to tell the parable. The question was “And who is my neighbor?”   This question from nearly 2000 years ago is still a good one. This worship service will consider in our seemingly super connected world what the idea of neighbor means to us as individuals and as a Liberal Religious community.
