Sunday Services at 10 a.m.
September 5, 2010 Unitarian Universalists sometimes define ourselves as "The Faith of the Free." Is this an oxymoron? What does it mean to be a faith without creed or dogma? Rev. Dan Schatz, who grew up here at Cedar Lane, has been the Minister of the BuxMont Unitarian Universalist Fellowship in Warrington, Pennsylvania for the past eight years. A graduate of Harvard Divinity School, he has served as a parish minister and hospice chaplain in New Hampshire. He is also a GRAMMY nominated folk musician and producer, with three albums to his credit. September 12, 2010 9 a.m.* and 11
a.m. Many years ago, the organizers of a Unitarian Universalist women’s conference asked participants to bring a little water from home so the water of these diverse places could be joined in one vessel, symbolizing unity among many. Since then, it has become a tradition in many Unitarian Universalist congregations to hold Water Communion services in the fall, where people bring water from home or from places they have visited to join together in this way. This ritual reminds us of how different we are from each other but what connections live between us in community. This service will celebrate these connections and the life-giving nature of water itself. Please bring some water to add to the common bowl, reflecting the many gifts you offer and the blessings of the places we know of as home. Childcare (for ages 5 and younger) is available for those who choose it, but all ages are very welcome at this joyful re-gathering of our faith community. * Cedar Lane will be closed from 7:45 - 8:51 a.m. for the Parks Half-Marathon. Please visit the website http://www.parkshalfmarathon.com/motorists.aspx to find your best route to church that day. September 19, 2010 The Rev. Roger Fritts In my experience, people who ask this question are looking for a serious response. They may be a crisis in their lives. Feeling a spiritual emptiness, they have come to us to see what we have to offer, and how it is different from other religious communities. How would you answer this question? Childcare is available for ages 5 and younger during worship services. Summer Program for 5 years- 5th grade also available during worship services through September 5.
