Sunday Services Schedule

January 1 ~ What shall we do with this great gift of time?
Worship Leader ~ Radha Richmond Covey • Liturgist ~ David Arnold  
One service at 10 a.m.  No religious education classes. 
As we take the first steps in to the New Year, we will consider what we will bring with us from the year just past and what we may leave behind.

 

January 8 ~ Race and Grace
Worship Leader ~ Carol Thompson • Guest Preacher ~ Erik Wingrove-Haugland
Services at 9:30 and 11:15 a.m.
America’s race problem is no longer a matter of people who are overtly and consciously racist, but of people who believe they are not racist, but still have attitudes influenced by racism. Reconizing this fact, and asking for grace for our remaining racist attitudes, is the key to overcoming this problem.

 

January 15 ~ Amazing Grace
Worship leader ~ Reverend Carolyn Patierno
Services at 9:30 and 11:15 a.m.
What is the meaning of “grace?” How might our lives be different if we were on the lookout for grace-filled moments?

January GNO: UUSC (Guest At Your Table Collection) On Sunday, January 15, the GNO will benefit the Unitarian Universalist Service Committee (UUSC). For those of you using the Guest at Your Table boxes that were distributed in November, please count up your cash donations and write a check to All Souls designating the GNO.
Please consider using this event to initiate or renew your membership in OUR service organization. Membership donations are $40 for individuals($20 for seniors or students) and $75 for couples/ families ($40 for senior led households).

 

January 22 ~ Embodied Grace: Lessons from Martin Luther King, Jr.
Worship Leader ~ Reverend Carolyn Patierno
Services at 9:30 and 11:15 a.m.
Dr. King brought grace to his work, often in the face of brutal racism and resistance. He kept on. How did he manage to cull such beauty from such pain?

There will be a children and youth chapel service on January 22. Our theme is immigration.

 

January 29 ~ Graceful Encounters
Worship leader ~ Reverend Carolyn Patierno • Guest Preacher ~ Jaye Starr
Services at 9:30 and 11:15 a.m.
In the UU tradition we covenant to affirm and promote the inherent worth and dignity of all people. How do we put this principal into action when encountering the Religious Other? Jaye will share her perspective on this while drawing from her experiences as a UU Muslim.
