March worship services

March 1, 10:30 am

“Tending to Trauma and Building Defiant Joy”

Rev. Ellie Kilpatrick

March 8, 10:30 am

“Wibbly Wobbly Timey Wimey:  a Time Change Sunday All Ages Worship”

Mx. Katharine Childs, zooms with Virginia Tomlinson and musicians Joan Gray and Hollis Bredeweg

Time waits for no one! Especially not on this "Spring Forward" Sunday morning, when we explore what we can learn from stories about time travel.  Time remains one of the most mysterious aspects of our lives, and people have been imagining traveling across it for generations.  What spiritual lessons does the wibbly wobbly nature of time have for us?

Mx. Katharine Childs (pronouns: they/them) is a UU storyteller and the Executive Director of Mirth & Dignity, the Canadian non-profit behind the immensely popular UU Hysterical Society Facebook group.  They were the first non-ordained religious professional to lead the Service of the Living Tradition, UUism's celebration of ministry since 1961, and for ten years, they served as the Director of Religious Explorations at the Unitarian Church of Montreal in their hometown of Montréal, Quebec, Canada.  They are an avid fiction lover, and an absolutely wicked knitter.

March 15, 10:30 am 

“Holy Intersections: The World is Watching”

Rev. Ellie Kilpatrick

March 22, 10:30 am

"Planting, Tending, Welcoming" 

Rev. Ellie Kilpatrick, Virginia Tomlinson, Pauline Schafer, and Mike Truex with musicians Nancy and Ray Brungard.

We sustain our church in these ways for ourselves, for those who will join us in the future, and for us to be a voice for social justice.  These are the core themes of our pledge drive this year.  Planting with intention, tending with care, and welcoming to everyone to come as they are.  Today’s service marks the beginning of our 2026-2027 church year pledge drive.  Come join us in celebrating our future together.

Please join us after this service on March 15th for a town-hall discussion of the draft budget for the 2026-2027 church year.  The draft budget is used to set the goal for our pledge drive as the financial basis for how we can be "Planting, Tending, Welcoming" for our CUUC community and our actions in the world. 

March 29, 10:30 am

"Pay Attention. Be Astonished."

Loraine Bottorff with Matt Smith and musician David Cohoe

In her poem, "Wild Geese," Mary Oliver gives us a job. "Just let the soft animal of your body love what it loves." But in a world which constantly demands our time and attention, that's easier said than done. Our creatures didn't come with directions. How do we know what they want? How do we get out of the way of their success? This service invites you to check-in and reconnect with yourself through the spiritual practice of Lectio Divina. We'll read and meditate on the sacred words of Mary Oliver as we practice Sacred Noticing and remind ourselves that we don't have to walk on our knees repenting for the messy wholeness that is our lives.
