Sunday Worship at the UUA General Assembly - Sunday, June 26, 2022

6/22/2022

0 Comments

 


NOTE: SUNDAY’S VIRTUAL SERVICE WILL BEGIN AT 11:30 (SEE BELOW)
This Sunday, we invite you all to join the largest annual gathering of Unitarian Universalists in the world for the UUA’s Sunday Service from the General Assembly at 11:30 CT. Accessing the service couldn’t be easier or freer for any who want to watch.
All you have to do is follow this link: https://www.uua.org/ga/off-site/2022/sunday-worship and click play on the video. You can see the Order of Service there as well.
The first lines of the program description capture the essence of our recent experience at UUCO:
The last few years have not been easy, including in our local congregations. Whole swaths of members have simply stopped coming; COVID is confusing, and polarizing; many ministers have joined the great resignation; and Pew studies and friends alike have pronounced the end of the local church. In this moment, when so many of us might be wondering if we should just give up, and relent, now’s the time instead to double down on our commitment to the local church - this unique community that saves us and also breaks our hearts - often much more of the latter than we’d like to admit. In the midst of our culture of death, the church is a place of life. Or it is, as long as we are willing to bring our own lives to it.
Please follow the link for an 11:30 CT start on Sunday morning and join UUs from around the world for a morning of celebration, witness, and future-visioning for the existing and emerging power of the local Unitarian Universalist church.
Leading us in worship will be Rev. Gretchen Haley, Rev. Shari Halliday-Quan, Rev. Sean Neil-Barron, Lea Morris, Adam Podd, Joseph and Aimee Santos-Lyons, and Allison King with the GA Choir.
Join in here at 11:30 CT on Sunday morning: https://www.uua.org/ga/off-site/2022/sunday-worship

Mother's Day Service - Sunday, May 8, 2022

5/4/2022

0 Comments

 
Reminder: ODD Sundays are hybrid and EVEN Sundays are 100% online. THIS Sunday (2nd Sunday of May) we will have community via Zoom!

"Mother's Day" means something different to each of us. Whether we are mothers, children, or even grandmothers or grandchildren. Some of us still have our mother with us, and some of us have lost our mother, if we ever knew her at all. Join us this Sunday for a time of reflection on what Mother's Day may mean. We will invite you to share your thoughts and life experiences on what this day means to you. You can offer the traditional celebratory message to your mother, living or deceased, or you can share whatever this day means to you.

If you would like to have your mother honored during the service, and you have a picture to share, please email her name and a picture (by Friday night) to Sarah at saschnai@go.olemiss.edu. 

Come. Reflect. Share. Let's be community.

UUCO is a welcoming congregation and we invite you to join us online this Sunday at 11 am.  Unfortunately, we are unable to publish the link to the service.  Contact Sandra Moss at uucotaffer@gmail.com to have the link sent to you.   Please request link before Sunday.

Fire,Flora, Fertility and Fasting: The Very Rich Tradition of Beltane- Rev. Jim Becker - Sunday, May 1, 2022

4/29/2022

0 Comments

 
Rev. Jim Becker from Jackson UU will come to us via zoom to give us unique insights into this festive time during the wheel of the year. It is a perfect follow up to Easter and Flower Communion and Jim has been studying the significance of the intersection of UUism and this ancient Celtic festival. After hearing him you may see why this is a season all UUs and not just the Pagan oriented should always have on their calendars. 
Our Annual Congregational Meeting follows right after the service.

UUCO is a welcoming congregation and we invite you to join us either online or in person at 11:00 am this Sunday for services.  Unfortunately we are unable to publish the link to the service due to security concerns.  Please contact Sandra Moss at uucostaffer@gmail.com to have the link sent to you.  Please request the link before Sunday.
