April 27, 10:30 am: “What can we learn from our cousins, the trees?”
Joan Gray
Three hundred and ninety million years ago, the trees began their life on earth. Humans (of the present iteration) have been around for about three hundred thousand years. Our forms are different, but there is much we can yet learn from our cousins, the trees.
May Services
May 4, 10:30 am: Beltane Stories of Creation
Rev. Monica Jacobson-Tennessen and Regina McConaghy with musicians Raymond and Nancy Brungard
This Beltane, come share a story for all ages of creation, destruction, and creation again through the story of a painter and a firebird. We’ll also celebrate our annual Flower Ceremony, so please bring a flower (or two) to co-create our congregational bouquet!
May 11, 10:30 am: Nurturing Resistance
Rev. Elizabeth Mount and Virginia Tomlinson with musician Fran Handy
This Mother’s Day, we recognize the power of parenting and mentorship in liberating us all from oppressive patterns of the past. Together, we consider how our care for children shapes the future and renews our intentions for nurturing and growing in love together. Rev. Mount (they/them) is currently serving as the settled minister at the UU Church of Cheyenne. They also serve on the UUA’s Board of Trustees, and you may remember they joined us for a service on Zoom during the pandemic. Live and in Pasco, Rev. Mount will be with us as they travel across WA this May.
May 18, 10:30 am: Choose to Bless the World
Rev. Monica Jacobson-Tennessen and Matt Smith with musicians Joan Gray, Hollis Bredeweg and Raymond Brungard
The Rev. Dr. Rebecca Parker writes that we can use our actions “to feed the hungry, bind up wounds, welcome the stranger, praise what is sacred, do the work of justice or offer love. …. [or to] draw down the prison door, hoard bread, abandon the poor, obscure what is holy, comply with injustice or withhold love.” We must choose what to do with our lives, and help each other in the choosing.
May 25, 10:30 am: My Burrito Has No Mangoes! Memorial Day reminiscences of growing up in Indiana.
Hollis Bredeweg and Joan Gray with musicians Mike Truex and Shannon Hayes-Truex
There is no further description of the sermon at this point, since I haven’t yet made up the history that I am going to recount. This service will only be in-person. No Zoom for this service.
