Virtual Worship: "Spiritual Imagination"
The Rev. Angela Herrera

Virtual Worship: "Religious Imagination"
The Rev. Bob LaVallee
Unitarian Universalism is the result of courageous acts of religious imagination. Our tradition went from looking a lot like other mainline Protestant denominations to the vibrant and evolving religion that we are today. Rev. Bob will talk about a few of the amazing people who helped us get here. -

Virtual Worship: “Being Born”
The Rev. Angela Herrera & Olivia Herrera
Although every person on earth was born, the subject of birth is conspicuously absent from religious art and literature. Angela (a former doula) and her daughter Olivia, a nurse at Dar a Luz birth center, will reflect on this, and on what being present with birth has taught them. -

Virtual Worship: “Eulogies”

Virtual Worship: “Eulogies”
The Ministers & Musicians
The popular, annual service dedicated to notable people who died in the last year. Though 2020 brought so much grief, let us not forget to celebrate some of the regular people whose lives touched ours, even if we never knew their names. Inventors, activists, scientists, and more… come for good music and good stories; leave with a spring in your step.
Angela will also pass the ceremonial Key to the Church to Bob today, as this is her last service before leaving for a four-month sabbatical.
