No Sunday Service - UCM is at rest  

This Sunday, Rev. Victoria shares insights about truth, realism, and integrity – elements of authenticity.  We tell our children it’s wrong to lie, then demonstrate to them how to lie in service to good manners and harmonious relationships.  We live in an era where we’re encouraged to “speak our truth.”  But is that always the best strategy?

Come join us for a quiet reflective morning of poetry, beloved and old, as well and new and experimental. From the ancient Persian poet Rumi to recent Punjabi-Canadian spoken word phenom Rubi Kaur. There is a poem for every season and every reason. Poetry holds great meaning to many of us, favourites are read at weddings, funerals and other events of significance. Our UU services are enriched with the words of Wendell Berry and  Mary Oliver among others. We will explore how poetry speaks to us and deepens our spirit. Led by Service Leader Wendy Shusterman

We trust those in authority to be responsible. We try to be responsible ourselves, and work to help our children be the same. But it’s not always so simple. What about when two or more situations all call for some responsibility - but they conflict? We invite you to think about this when you attend this Sunday. We will talk in small groups to see if we can sort out some of these conflicts (and no doubt think of some more). Led by Service leader Jean Mackie
