11am Community Worship, June 26, 2022; Celebrating Blessings:  The Power of We 

On this Sunday when thousands of Unitarian Universalists are worshipping together in Portland, Oregon, at the UUA General Assembly, and thousands more are watching the live-stream online (available at 12:30 Eastern time at www.uua.org ), UUCville’s 11am Community Worship features our own liturgy led by Worship Weaver Clarisse RePass, with music and a sermon from the 2019 General Assembly. The Rev. Marta I. Valentin’s powerful message “It Is Time Now” calls us to be a faith which is inclusive of all people, especially those who have historically been on the margins of power.
