FEBRUARY WORSHIP SERVICES, 10:30 a.m. This month’s worship theme is RESILIENCE. SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 2 Defiant as the Snowdrop Rev. Sara Hayman, Worship Leader First Sunday Potluck! Charles Betancourt, Worship Associate Today is Imbolc, also called Brigid’s Day, a Gaelic traditional festival marking the beginning of spring. For Celtic paegans, Brigid is a goddess or saint, and keeper of midwives and fire and purity. In this service, we’ll tell the ancient story of Brigid and reflect on some of the wisdom it shares. SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 9 Growth Despite the Fire – Vanessa Williams, Worship Leader Resilience Is a Silent Revolution This service will explore a view of resiliency from multiple angles, from even the perspective of the tiniest of seeds. How does giving recognition to the many sources from which one may take their strength to face the most impossible of circumstances enhance our lives? How might resilience give us the hope to nourish growth anew despite our challenges? Vanessa Williams is a member of our Worship Arts Team and a first year seminarian at Meadville Lombard Theological School. We are excited to support and be a part of her formation and journey into UU ministry. SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 16 Truth Telling about the Past Rev. Sara Hayman, Worship Leader What responsibility do we, as people of faith and conscience, have to wrestle with hard truths about our country’s history as part of working to create more justice? This service and sermon will explore this question as we reflect on the ways that liberating our history from lies helps us create the possibility of healing, just as experiencing more integrity allows for a more resilient future.
