"The Courage to Continue" — led by the Rev. Anya Sammler-Michael, senior co-minister. Our annual Flower Communion Pride Celebration honors the struggles that have been surmounted, recognizing the work that needs to be done, and affirming the beauty in every soul.
"Prepare Ye The Way"— led by the Revs. Anya and Scott Sammler-Michael, senior co-ministers. As we explore the nature of renewal, we will explore how we best prepare for the change that is always coming, as well as explore how best to retain what is of worth from our pasts.
"Containing Multitudes, Courting Complexity"— led by the Rev. Scott Sammler-Michael, senior co-minister. So many perceptions flood our minds, so many memories dance, vying for our attention. But what do we remember, and why? How do we discern the truth when confronted with seemingly opposite realities? Using, in part, the conflict in Gaza as an example of the power of remembering the wrong things, Rev Scott invites us to court complexity in our thinking and employ humility in our proclamations.
