A Celebration of French Choral Music

Join the music ministry and Chalice Choir for their annual Spring Music Service. This service will feature a wonderful assortment of choral music from French composers, spanning 6 centuries! The Chalice Choir will celebrate and perform pieces from a variety of French choral traditions — some traditionally religious, some spiritual and Earth-based, in addition to some delightfully fun (and sometimes even bawdy!) examples of classic Madrigals from the Renaissance period.

Speakers ~ Chalice Singers, Laurie Coltri, Michael Adcock, the Rev. Lisa Bovee Kemper and the UUCC Chalice Choir. 

 

Stillness

One source of our UU faith is our direct experience with the awe and mystery of life. Join us for an exploration of stillness and its role in the experience of transcendence. UUCC’s Everyone Choir will sing this Sunday!

Speakers: Betsy Osterman, Dorothy Hutchins, Ed Gaddy, Everyone Choir, Jen Hayashi, Jenny Bonilla, Kelli Danaker, Lisa Marini, Melissa Affolter, Michael Adcock, Regina Verow and Sebastian Bonilla

 

Relentless and Gentle

As these “unprecedented times” continue and the news stories get weirder and worse, let’s consider together ways to deepen our connections and practices to keep us from burnout and despair.

Speakers: Kellie Danaker, Megan Lopes, Rev. Lisa Bovee Kemper and Tom Monroe

Spring Equinox with Turning Circle

Turning Circle, UUCC’s Pagan spirituality group, will lead us in a service celebrating and honoring the spring equinox.

Speakers ~ Alex Cauthen-Zach, Christina Bird-Walker, Dylan Zach, Indigo Todd, Lorien Haavik, Melvin Zach, Michael Adcock, Mike Jadoo and Patti Kinlock.

 

Four Sources

Our faith tradition prioritizes spiritual deepening and engagement in our personal beliefs and values, but we don’t often talk much about how to actually go about the search for meaning. Methodist John Wesley’s teachings provide an intriguing entry point for this conversation. 

Speakers: Erika Chavarria, Linda Adcox-Kimmel, Michael Adcock, Michael Phillips, Regina Verow, Rev. Lisa Bove Kemper and the UUCC Chalice Choir.

For Such a Time as This

We are pleased to welcome guest minister Rev. Misha Sanders to lead this Sunday’s service about collective liberation.

Speakers ~ Erika Chavarria, Kelli Danaker, Linda Adcox-Kimmel, Meagan Lopes. Rev. <Misha Sanders and Tom Monroe

 

Adversity and Adaptation

They say that when the only tool you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail! We’ll consider how different kinds of problems require different tools and strategies to solve.

Speakers and Music ~ Kelli Danaker, Laurie Coltri, Michael Adcock, Michael Phillips, Rev. Lisa Bovee Kemper and the UUCC Chalice Choir

 

Belonging

Featuring short reflections from congregants about what belonging means to them in the context of church and community, this Sunday we will explore interdependence and pluralism. How do we widen our welcome understanding that we have many different needs and perspectives and stories?

Speakers: John Whelan, Kelli Danaker, Leighton Hubard, Lida Adcox-Kimmel, Lorien Haavik, Rev. Lisa Bovee and Shoaib Khan.

Community Love Letters

Let’s put our heads and hearts together and consider how we’ll show up and share the love with UUCC and its people… the ones already here and the ones yet to walk through our doors (virtual or literal). Join us as we put love into action through sharing love letters to UUCC.

Speakers ~ Kelli Danaker, Lisa Marini, Michael Adcock, Rev. Lisa Bovee Kemper, Steve Parr and the UUCC Chalice Choir
