"Remembering Well"

Rev. Carol Strecker speaking

Memorial Day ushers in the official beginning of summer but it was born of the need to remember well those Americans who died in the course of their military service. Memorial Day gives us the opportunity to mourn those losses as a nation. But there are other “national losses” we’re facing. How can we remember well those 1 million souls lost to the Corona Virus and the victims of gun violence that plagues our nation?  Memorial Day invites us to lament all of these “national losses,” honor the dead and advocate for peace.

"Transcending the Binary" 

Rev. Carol Strecker speaking

June is PRIDE month. We celebrate the many ways people express gender and sexuality in our culture, many of which transcend cultural norms, male and female. Now more then ever it seems important to understand the issues facing people who don’t fit neatly into the gender binary of male and female. Learning from each other and expanding our understanding of the full range of human experience is an important way Unitarian Universalists can honor the worth and dignity of all people. Finding a spiritual home where you feel seen in the fullness of your humanity is what being a Welcoming Congregation is really all about.

The Annual Meeting will be held

immediately following the service.

Covid test information from the Caring Team 

A third round of free Covid tests is now available from the government through the United States Postal Service. Go to website CovidTests.gov. A few simple questions and you should be receiving 8 free tests. There will be an expiration date on these tests, but as more and more data is available the period of test reliability is increasing. If you have cared for your test well in a clean, dry place not subject to freezing or excessive heat, and the control line is still visible, in general the test should be good for 18-24 months.
