Finding Joy in Simple Things

The service will be about looking for and finding the joys that are right in front of us everyday. Sharing joy can be done in so many ways and we will look at some of those ways.

Surprised by Joy

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.

Making Room for Trust to Grow

Trust can be like a highway of emotions, feelings, and actions. Who/what do we trust? Are they trustworthy? Where is trust kept? Who/what trusts us? Are we trustworthy? Can we do those things needed to live in love through the practice of trust?

What do our UU principles call us to do?

Luminescence: Trusting the Light Within

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.

Inhabiting Our Freedom Dreams

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!

Blessing of the Plough

This service highlights reflection, renewal, and preparation for the seasons ahead. Bring tools, seeds, and symbols of your work, as we honor the land, our labor, and the connections that nourish us. Something transformative awaits.
The Blessing of the Plough will be a participatory, interactive Service.

What Happens Once We Belong?

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?

Shaping Our Story: We Have a Choice

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?
