"Reclaiming the American Experiment: Our America As She Turns 250"
Beth Stevenson
Join us for music, readings and stories that reflect some of the ways our UU values are intertwined with the history and promise of the American experiment in democracy and freedom. Bring an item -- a photo, an object, a family treasure -- that relates to your personal beliefs about patriotism. We will both sing of the successes and reflect on the rocky road this country has traveled -- and we will recommit to the vision of the American experiment.

"The Devil is A Lie"
Clint Tawes
Growing up in my tribal community, I often heard the phrase “The devil is a lie,” a saying also familiar in the Black church tradition. In this sermon, we’ll explore the wisdom hidden in that expression and what it can teach us about truth, freedom, and the stories we tell about ourselves, our communities, and our nation.

"Good Trouble Lives On” - Honoring John Lewis
Diane Jackson
On Sunday, July 19 we will celebrate the John Lewis Weekend of Action which calls us to "Reach, Teach Out and Preach Out" about significant harm to voting rights for people of color in this nation.
We will participate in honoring the legacy of the late John Lewis during our service as part of the national “Good Trouble Lives On” weekend of action. This mini event is designed to help us speak out and raise awareness about the current threats to voting rights for Brown and Black citizens. Our member, Diane Jackson, will be our guest speaker, who will inspire our awareness and action.

"The Bitter & The Sweet/Stories of Immigrant Women"
Ruth Trudeau
"The Bitter & The Sweet: Stories of Immigrant Women, Their Food Traditions and Making Do” is an original adaptation by Ruth Trudeau of a book by Jane Ziegelman. We’ll hear stories from immigrants, all women, from Germany, Ireland, Italy, and Jews from Eastern Europe. In the 19th and early 20th centuries, they came to America for work and for food. In their struggles they assimilated American foods and also shared with us their food traditions. They learned to make do with what they had.
A potluck lunch will be held immediately following the service.
What to Expect in Worship
Relationship is at the heart of worship. We believe that when we come together in worship we create and experience a unique energy and connection. We invite you to join us as we grapple with the big questions and learn about ourselves and each other.
