The “Spirit of Life” hymn echoes with the words roots hold me close; wings set me free, reminding us of our faith’s living tradition. Unitarian Universalists treasure the stories and wisdom given by our spiritual ancestors, and we also embrace new learning. We celebrate the diversity that enriches our faith and strive to deepen our understanding through continuous growth and expansion of our wisdom.

Flower Communion
Rev. Jen Youngsun Ryu
This Sunday, we celebrate a beloved Unitarian Universalist ritual first shared by the Czech Unitarians Maya & Norbert Čapek. You are invited to bring a single flower—something simple, even imperfect—to place among the others. In this act of shared offering, we create a collective beauty none of us could make alone, and we leave with a different flower than the one we brought.
During worship, Room 1 is a space for people who need or prefer less sensory stimulation. Thank you for using this room respectfully and mindfully.
Justice: Faith in Action
Ours is a faith that seeks and does justice. That work is, as the Rev. Dr. Rebecca Parker says, a “striving for what is not yet but could be.”
A church doing justice work differs from the way other organizations or institutions do justice work in its grounding, framing, and motivation. In what guides us as we do the work. In what we return to when threatened by discouragement or violence. If we want to go the distance, then we must have a firm footing to live from, not just morally or intellectually or ethically, but spiritually.
