For UUCM Members & Pledging Friends

Stronger Relationships. Deeper Understanding. A More Compassionate World.
The Power of Covenant in Everyday Life.

Living into the “Power of Covenant” offers us a way in every tough situation in our lives – no matter what! The covenantal way of being invites the best forward, both from ourselves and from others, and opens up a process for relationship repair when that is needed.

Join us for a deep dive into developing our capacity to live the power of covenant – in our daily lives, in community, and in the wider world. Our time together will be highly interactive, focusing on building usable skills to move through the challenges covenantal relationships always bring. We’ll work with the concrete examples you bring! Discover the transformative growth in your skills and confidence in problem-solving with the people you care about that is truly possible!

As the nights lengthen and the days become noticeably shorter (and we set our clocks back an hour!), we find ourselves, yet again, in the time between the Autumn Equinox and the Winter Solstice. Known by names such as Samhain, Dia De Muertos, Halloween, and more; many believe the veil between the worlds of the living and the dead is thinnest at this time of year, and thus it is a good time to reflect upon and remember our Beloved (and maybe not so beloved) Dead. Together we’ll add our photos and objects to a community altar honoring those who have gone before us, and offer gratitude for the legacy of lessons, gifts, challenges, and opportunities for healing that they have bestowed upon us.

Singing Meditation is a wonderful spiritual practice that alternates shared singing with meaningful shared silences. Everyone is encouraged to participate in the ways that feel right to them. Come, see what it’s like. Participants in our monthly singing meditation circles almost always leave feeling more peaceful, more grounded, and more gently energized by the end of the evening, no matter how they were feeling when they arrived.
