NOT WAVING . . . DROWNING: ANNUAL INGATHERING AND WATER COMMUNION
Rev. Jessica Purple Rodela
Music: Judith Koeller, Tom Nagy, Stephen Preece, and Colin Read.

Alan Watts said, “To have faith is to trust yourself to the water.  When you swim you don't grab hold of the water, because if you do you will sink and drown.  Instead you relax, and float.”  You are invited to bring a small sampling of water representing your summer travels as we mingle our experiences in this uniquely Unitarian ritual.

A potluck lunch will follow today’s service.  Please bring a dish to share.
Swimming party 1:30 - 3:30

CHANGING THE NARRATIVE, CHANGING THE OUTCOME
Tui Torrie
Service Leader: Janis Collins.
Music: Stephen Preece.
   
Dry autumn leaves will fall and dance ahead of the crisp wind that was yesterday’s warm summer breeze.  Inevitable change, predictable - yet not.  How do we grab hold of our reality and drive it in the direction we need?  A verbal sprint through issues, meaning, and our futures.
