Our congregation’s founders imagined an inclusive, justice-seeking Unitarian Universalist community in Gwinnett County, and then took up their roles to help build it. In an ever-evolving ecosystem like ours, founding is never finished. What do we imagine our roles to be in the ongoing creation of this loving community? Rev. Nancy Palmer Jones (She/Her), Worship … Continue reading Forever Founding Anew: A Celebration of Founders’ Day
On this Sunday, we celebrate both Easter and Earth Day, creating a vision of freedom, beauty, and health to guide us forward. Whether you are online or in person, please bring a flower to share in our Flower Ceremony!
Is joy a guest we have invited in for a moment or more, or is it something unexpected and unpredictable? Is joy a hidden gem just waiting for us to discover? Or is joy a creation that we all have the capacity to make? We launch this month of learning to Live Love Through the Practice of Joy with stories about when, where, how, and why joy shows up in our lives.
“Trust the process,” we’re told, when life’s outcomes seem uncertain; or “just keep swimming,” as the movie Finding Nemo suggested. But when things fall apart, how and when can we trust that healing really is possible?
This Sunday we find our way with the help of an ancient story, the guidance of Good Trouble, and one of Rev. Nancy’s favorite prayers.
The service includes an important safety drill that will ground us in trust that we can care for each other.
Join us this Sunday for our annual celebration of Luminescence, a Service that honors the light within each of us, and the source of the light within all. When we trust the light within and allow it to shine forth unimpeded, it is our collective light that will shine through even the darkest darkness.
Luminescence is a multigenerational Worship Service. All ages are welcome in the Sanctuary space to celebrate.
Side with Love’s “30 Days of Love” have pointed out that there are so many ways to embody Love and to practice the new world that we seek to build. In this service, we try out several of these practices, and we leave with a promise to take at least one new action, large or small, that embodies our commitment to the worthiness and dignity of all. Please bring a journal (or something to write on) and a pen (or something to write with) to this service! Join us to experience the joy of being part of the resistance!
Finding a place where we belong – where we feel seen and heard and loved for our full selves – is such a relief! It’s one of our lifesaving missions here at UUCG, something we’re creating moment by moment, mistakes and learnings and growth included. But what happens once we find that sense of belonging? Is it all rest and relaxation? Or does belonging ask us to expand even more?
On the eve of the presidential inauguration and of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day, we pause to ask, What story will we help shape for our country and our community? How do we embody our values as we participate in the work of the world?
Due to inclement weather, this Sunday’s Service will be offered online only. We invite you to join us via Zoom at the link above.
This week, two lifelong students of Story – Rev. Nancy and Bob Patrick – invite us to look at an old story in fresh ways. Where will you find yourself in the story, and what can we take from the story into our daily lives?
