One of our foremost theologians, Rev. Theodore Parker, gave an ordination sermon in 1841 about the “transient and permanent” in Christianity. How does this idea of the transient and the permanent reflect in modern day Unitarian Universalism? How is related to our new Article 2? How is it related to our everyday lives? Note: Kids will begin in service this week for a special Time for All Ages Blessing of the Backpacks Ritual! Folks of all ages are invited to bring their backpacks/work bags with them.
This week we are having a special blessing of the bags ceremony as a Time for All Ages. Students are invited to bring their backpacks! You can bring your work laptop bag! You can bring your purse! Whatever bag you bring with you on a regular basis, it’s getting blessed this Sunday. We’ve got special charms for your bags (if you can’t make it this Sunday, we will have more charms during our first week of RE classes in Mid September.) Note that all ages begin in the service this Sunday, and children and youth will process from service to their classrooms after the Bag Blessing.
