On this day, bring water that is sacred to you to add to the holy water we create through blessing it in community. Bring whatever you need for your work or school year to be blessed—backpacks, planners, coach whistles….and the third blessing will be for our Ministerial Search Committee, whose task is well underway.

UU’s claim, as a primary source, our “direct experience of that transcending mystery and wonder, affirmed in all cultures, which moves us to a renewal of the spirit, and an openness to the forces that create and uphold life.” Gathered here in the mystery of this Sunday hour, let’s take time to reflect on our experiences of mystery and wonder that have renewed our spirits and opened us to life.
Our bodies carry us through this life. No matter the situation, body is here with us. Our bodies also have things to tell us. But that invitation to an inner relationship with body can sometimes feel like unexplored wilderness, and certainly vulnerable. This morning we will inquire what it means to inhabit a body, and safely invite body to be known, cherished and celebrated, whatever our historical relationships have been with it.
This Sunday we share stories about sexual education, and about our religion’s understanding of it, which sometimes sets us apart from the mainstream! Bring a friend and expect prizes as we
celebrate summer in church!
