Amidst the uncertainty of the world around us, we face an ancient truth: suffering both shatters and shapes us. Throughout history, marginalized groups have navigated and transcended this struggle by accepting such pain with open eyes, then forging it into renewal. How do we continually turn heartache into relentless, peaceful rebellion, making justice and love not distant hopes, but living practices—no matter what happens? Join us for this Sunday’s service at 10 am. ~ Jeff LaBonde

This Sunday is a multi-generational service led by Rev. Ed and Chrissy. We will honor our volunteers who have done so much to help UUCDC be the vital place it is over the last year. In this service, we will also engage in a ritual UUCDC has practiced over the years at the end of the church year: everyone will take one of the stones from the stone baskets we use during the joys and sorrows ritual we do each Sunday. We will leave with instructions to drop the stone somewhere this summer during travels and then, later in the summer, pick up a new stone to bring back in September. In my homily I will share my second and final farewell sermon, as I share some conclusions about this wonderful congregation.

This Sunday we will celebrate with love and gratitude the retirement from ministry of Rev. Ed Brock, who has been our interim minister for the past two years. During that time, he has guided our congregation with love and care, preparing us for our next settled minister. Rev. Ed has served as a UU minister for 36 years, having been a settled minister for two congregations and an interim minister for 11 others. Join us on Sunday, June 15, at 10 am for a joyous service as we celebrate Rev. Ed’s ministry, followed by a reception in Fellowship Hall.
