Next Sunday Sept. 6 (11:00am) Labor Day Worship Service via Zoom.

The Inherent Worth & Dignity of Essential Workers                     Rev. K. Hawbaker

Let’s listen and learn from people in our community about their work, their rights, and their lives in 

this time of pandemic.

Looking Ahead

Sun. Sept. 20    Water Ceremony ~ In the Courtyard (9:30am) & on Zoom (11am).

As all things are different and changing, this year’s annual Water Ceremony will refer to our traditions, and also happen in new ways.  When there was a Sternwheel Festival, it made a strong connection to have it on the same weekend, and it marked our Ingathering -the beginning of the FUUSM Program Year (like the school year).  This year we have scheduled the event at the time of the Autumnal Equinox, to reinforce our environmental work and education with an earth-based spiritual orientation.

You are invited to bring actual water for the ceremony in the courtyard, and send photos (for a slideshow) of your sacred waters from this year or previous years.  Please send photos to Rev. Kat Hawbaker by Sun. Sept. 16 and include your name and the name of the place or body of water.

Sun. Sept. 27 (11am)  Fall Congregational Meeting   (Zoom & Sanctuary)

Your input and vote is important to address future plans and the proposed budget.
