Past Services

Sunday, June 7th, 2020

Rev. Dr. Cynthia L. Landrum 
We’re unable with social distancing to do Flower Communion in the same way, but the heart of flower communion is about our love for community.  So we invite you to put up a flower on your screen in whatever way you choose as we remember the history of flower communion and create a new ritual for our age that captures the core meaning of flower communion.  This service will include a special time for focusing on our RE program (what we’ve called “RE Extravaganza”) and information on how to register for next year.

Guest Speaker: CB Beal

CB will share reflections on the idea of Preemptive Radical Inclusion as an entryway to increase justice and equity among ourselves and in the world, a way to embody beloved community in a time of physical isolation and social connection.

CB Beal, M.Div. (they, them, theirs) specializes in the facilitation of learning experiences that involve issues of marginalization, oppression, and privilege.  Their focus is in the intersections of Preemptive Radical Inclusion, safer communities/congregations, supporting gender creative and trans/non-binary children and youth in youth-serving organizations, and sexuality/consent education.  CB is the Unitarian Universalist Association’s 2019 Angus H. MacLean Award for Excellence in Religious Education. 

CB is a white, non-binary/genderqueer, mostly able-bodied fat person of sturdy farmer stock.

The order of service will be posted here for download by the Friday evening before the service.
