This intergenerational In-Gathering Sunday will be led by our new Lead Minister, Rev. Lara Cowtan.
For this homecoming to our new congregational year, please bring waters that are special to you to share in our service as we join together in ritual, song, story and fellowship.
We will celebrate with a traditional UU Water Ceremony, followed by a community BBQ!
Service at 10:30am
In Person (30 Cleary)

New to UU services and wondering how "waters that are special to you" are defined?
They're self-defined!
Possible sources include the following, but are far from limited to them:
The creek near your home
Your kids’ favourite splash pad
Rain gathered from the rain barrel in your yard or community garden
The pool you swim in to maintain your mobility
Moon Water blessed on your own window sill
Your new apartment’s bath tub tap
The river you paddled all summer
We recommend bringing no more than half a cup per person, and suggest using clean juice bottles, destined for the recycling bin, for transport (mason jars LEAK when they aren't boiled to a seal).
