Sunday Service — "Meet The Moment: Reimagining Radical Faith Community")

"Meet The Moment: Reimagining Radical Faith Community"

General Assembly

Sunday Morning Worship

12:30-2PM Eastern Time

Livestream is open to all HERE

Please note: we will not be gathering at the church for Sunday Service. Because GA is in Portland, Oregon this year, the morning livestreamed Worship Service will be available to us 12:30-2pm Eastern Time, not our usual 10am Sunday Worship Service.

From the UU website:

The last few years have not been easy, including in our local congregations. Whole swaths of members have simply stopped coming; COVID is confusing, and polarizing; many ministers have joined the great resignation; and Pew studies and friends alike have pronounced the end of the local church.

In this moment, when so many of us might be wondering if we should just give up, and relent, now’s the time instead to double down on our commitment to the local church - this unique community that saves us and also breaks our hearts - often much more of the latter than we’d like to admit. In the midst of our culture of death, the church is a place of life. Or it is, as long as we are willing to bring our own lives to it. Join us for a morning of celebration, witness, and future-visioning for the already and not yet power of the local Unitarian Universalist church.

Leading us in worship will be Rev. Gretchen Haley, Rev. Shari Halliday-Quan, Rev. Sean Neil-Barron, Lea Morris, Adam Podd, Joseph and Aimee Santos-Lyons, and Allison King with the GA Choir.

For the morning offertory you may donate online.

Special Collection for Eastern Massachusetts Abortion Fund

The recipient of UUCGL’s special collection during our Sunday services will be the Eastern Massachusetts Abortion Fund, to support MA residents and women who are coming to MA for an abortion. There are several ways to give: our plate cash, checks payable to Eastern MA Abortion Fund, checks payable to UUCGL with Eastern MA Abortion Fund on the memo line, and online donations at uucgl.org/donate (specify Eastern Massachusetts Abortion Fund on the form).
