Sunday Services start at 10:30 a.m.

 

Service: Inherent Mirth & Dignity

Join us for the story of the UU Hysterical Society, the practical joke that accidentally turned into a 230,000-person UU community on Facebook. It's a story of feeling lost, finding yourself, and UUism-outside-the-box. Guest Speaker (in person): Liz James, UUHS founder

Service: Those Happy Golden Years

Aging. A fact of life. We all age every day. As an experience it beats the alternative. Many fine words are written about aging; some will be read today. Then, suddenly, age takes us to meet ageism and the world changes. Golden Years. Bah, humbug.

Service: Ingathering

In our lngathering service, we bring together our hopes and dreams for the world, blend them together, and launch a new year. Bring water and/or stones, from home or somewhere else meaningful to you. We will blend them together in our water ceremony. **First service led by Rev. Ben Robins

Service: The Best Laid Plans

The day after our congregational retreat (to imagine the year), we explore what happens when humans try to shape the future.

Service: Where Do the Children Play?

Amidst an international fertility crisis, we reflect on how our own towns and cities might be adapted to be natural habitats for kids and families.

Service: Truth, Treaties and Relationship

Today we recognize Truth and Reconciliation Day, Treaty Day, and the upcoming Mi'kmaw History Month. What do respectful relations look like?

Service: Like-minded Freethinkers in a Messy World

As freethinkers we don't always agree on how to do good in the world, especially when things are complicated. When do we expect agreement, loudly proclaimed, and when do we celebrate having a range of opinions? How many UUs does it take to change a light bulb?

Service: Giving Thanks in a Complex World

Whether it's arguing historic injustices at Thanksgiving dinner, or trying to find your heart when a loved one has let you down, we explore the challenges of giving thanks in a complex world.

Service: Ancestor’s Breath

As the nights grow longer, we might feel a special connection with those who came before.   Your connection might be to family, chosen family, or to a weaver of one of your beloved traditions. We'll hear stories that connect our sense of belonging through time. Bring photos of loved ones for our altar, or email a...

Service: Language is Power

The English language - its structure, vocabulary and usage, developed over centuries - is embedded with the values, the priorities, the worldview, of the cultures it grew in. When do we accept it as an imperfect hand-me-down, and when do we take a stand and say it needs to change?

Service: We Remember

As we launch the pledge drive, and in honour of Remembrance Day, we remember all who have gotten us to where we are today, and we remember what it is we are aiming for and what this is all about. Stay after service for lunch as we launch the pledge drive.
