“Keep the Faith”
Rev. Susan Milnor
Some interim reflections on our time together and how our faith might counsel us on the path forward. We will celebrate all that we bring to this community and what we receive from it with the beloved Unitarian Universalist Flower Ceremony, including the story of freedom from which it takes its meaning. This ceremony celebrates diversity, good will, and the beauty of community.
Please bring a flower for each member of your family or group to add to the communal bouquet.
Our religious education program has concluded for the year, and there is no childcare this morning. Children and youth are welcome to accompany their adults in the service and participate in the flower ceremony.

After the service, we gather in the Harvey Assembly Hall for fellowship and refreshments. It is a great time to reconnect with friends and meet new people!
Coffee hour is organized by the Fellowship Committee, but staffed weekly by volunteers! The easiest way to make sure there is always hot coffee and treats is to share hosting responsibilities. When is your turn? It depends on your last name- You can find the schedule and more info here: 2025 volunteer schedule
Thank you in advance for helping with this well loved weekly event! If you are new to “hosting” it’s easy. Directions are here: Coffee Host Instructions
