Spiritual Practice
Religious Services Committee
This committee, along with the minister, plans regular Sunday worship services and organizes periodic member-led services. During the summer months, we coordinate all Sunday services.
Renewal Team
The Renewal Team is open to anyone who wants to work with the minister in nourishing our communal spiritual life. Renewal Team members may offer or initiate classes, retreats, in-home discussion groups, creative events, celebrations, etc. Members meet together on a periodic basis to share ideas and support each other’s efforts. If that kind of creative ministry speaks to you, you are welcome to join us anytime.
“School for the Spirit”
Many events and classes are offered by members of our community during the year, highlighting adult faith development opportunities in these three areas:
Theological Exploration
Spiritual Practice
Ethical Reflection / Action
In addition to the opportunities listed below, an orientation series geared for newer members entitled “Welcome to Unitarian Universalism” is offered both fall and spring. See the monthly Sundial newsletter for additional offerings. We welcome you as a member or friend to participate in one or all of these events.
First Hour Forum
This group meets on Sunday mornings at 9:00 to exchange ideas on a wide range of topics. Forums generally begin with a presentation by a member or other invited guest speaker. Group discussion takes place after the presentation. The group determines the topics that will be discussed.
Women’s Spirituality
We welcome all women who wish to explore the spiritual dimension of women’s lives. The group usually meets on the last Friday of the month for worship and sharing in ways that honor female traditions and the cycles of the seasons. We create a safe and sacred space using music, meditation, nature’s seasonal gifts, dance, poetry, and listening to each other. On Sunday mornings, our Gift Shop offers items to enliven your spirit at home and in the world. Proceeds support the group and the UUSGS.
