Join Ingrid Holcomb as she focuses on some dimensions of listening. Non-human animals listen to each other for many reasons. Human animals listen to non-human animals, too—for enjoyment (listening), but also for meaning (hearing). And humans listen to and hear each other. When you listen, what do you hear?

First Summer Service

- Racial Justice Task Force

Three years after the murder of George Floyd on a Minneapolis street corner, members of the Racial Justice Task Force ask, “Where do we find ourselves in the continuing journey toward racial justice?” This service will explore the ups and downs of the last three years: progress made, work still to be done, the challenges of effective and continuing white allyship, and ways to keep the passion, hope, and energy going in the midst of all the resistance and continuing struggle for justice.

Masks are required in the sanctuary, with the exception of being optional for speakers, soloists, and in the balcony.

- Rev. Dr. Cynthia L. Landrum

Our last Sunday before “summer services” will be a “Question Box Sermon” – an old UU tradition where we ask you to submit questions to a box we’ll have available, and Rev. Cindy will answer as many as time permits in the sermon!  The rest of the service will be music-filled as we celebrate our time with our Music Director Brad Dumont, and with our Acting Director of Religious Education, Marissa Evans, and wish them both well on their future paths.

Our service will be followed by our annual picnic on the church lawn (library side of the church where there’s some shade). This is a bring-your-own lunch and picnic gear (plates, napkins, utensils, beverages, blankets, chairs, sunscreen, lawn games, ukuleles….) but you’re also welcome to bring an element to share if you wish, and we’ll have a table for potluck-style offerings to be shared.  

Masks are required in the sanctuary, with the exception of being optional for speakers, soloists, and in the balcony.
