A service to celebrate the beauty of nature, rededicate us to a better world, and honor those martyred for freedom of conscience. Please bring fresh flowers to be joined together, given our blessing and then taken home by each of us. Bridging Sunday.

At the end of your ministerial transition, get ready for…another transition! Sorry if this feels like “base-and- switch,” but there you go. Let’s revisit and reframe the question with which we started. This is also Religious Exploration Recognition Sunday.

“Herding cats”? That may be. My wisdom hard earned over a quarter century of leading UUs is the cats don’t like being kicked and the minister will probably sprain something. I will share this and other semi-reliable epiphanies. No Religious Education class this Sunday.

How we move through the world matters. Being wrong is an inevitable part of the trip, and using a religious perspective can help us to stay whole inside. Taking in the scenery doesn’t have to mean a sectarian or even theistic frame. Religious Exploration offered for children.

We will begin the service with a Hat Parade for everyone. Plan to don your best chapeau and promenade! We will have a special “egg-sighting” Time for All Ages, spring Choir music, special reading and a homily called “Made for Goodness.” Then kids go out for the Easter egg hunt.
