Service and Music by UCH Youth Group
Our church family is one of many communities that give us strength. Family and friends help us move forward in our lives. This service organized by the youth group will remind us that we are connected to each other in ways that make us all stronger.

In Native American lore, each person has a natural orientation, her or his starting point. But each must journey around the “medicine wheel,” experiencing the other orientations. Using this metaphor, each of us, from our own starting place, should experience other world religions. We can benefit, be made whole, through the insights of the several world faiths. Today’s remarks will offer praise of religious eclecticism.

The second half of the Twentieth Century was an era that stressed self-actualization. (Remember Maslow’s hierarchy of needs with self-actualization at the top?)

Given a long and dull winter, I can’t wait for the ministrations of Spring. Playing on the contrasts of winter and spring, I’ll offer a meditation of hope and possibilities for society as well as for the individual.

The UCH Social Action Committee will present a celebration of UCH’s commitment to social justice, including accountings of “Journeys of Conscience” presented by committee members. We’ll also enjoy inspiring historical and contemporary protest songs performed and led by Jeff and Sara Teppema and friends with opportunities for the congregation to sing-along or just listen. A time to reflect. A time to affirm.
