Mindfulness Practice Group

9:00 am - 10:00 am

Every Sunday in the UU Sisterhood room.

Join us at the UU Church of Annapolis for our spiritual practice group, a sangha (community of contemplative friends), where we come together as a supportive community on our meditation journey. Our group follows the Vietnamese Zen tradition of Thich Nhat Hanh, but we welcome all to come sit with us. Like him, we respect all meditation practices and celebrate the diversity of practice among us.

Beyond Sunday Announcements

Board serving dinner at the Light House

Some members of your UUCA Board along with co-coordinator James Robertson made and served dinner at the Light House Homeless Prevention Shelter on Sunday March 9th. There are still spaces for your group to sign up and serve meals. Contact James Roberson.

Providing Flowers for the Sanctuary

Did you know you can honor someone or a special event by providing flowers for a Sunday service? It's the perfect way to recognize a birthday or anniversary, express gratitude, memorialize someone special, or simply beautify the sanctuary. Contact Olivia Bittner (olivia.p.bittner@gmail.com) at least three weeks in advance to reserve a specific Sunday. On the designated Sunday, bring a floral arrangement for the front of the sanctuary in advance of the Service. Thank you!
