June 2026 Worship Calendar

June 7, Finding Our People, Rainbow Ministry

June is Pride Month, when the flowering of LGBTQ+ community is often at its most visible and vibrant. But year round, the work of finding one’s “people” goes on in multiple quiet and profound ways. The concept of a “chosen family”, so important to queer culture, can have a special resonance to us as UUs overall. We search, ever onwards and wider, outwards and over generations, for our covenantal beloved community. But just as importantly, how do we do the emotional and relational work to keep them by us when we’ve found them? Join the UUCP Rainbow Ministry as we explore these questions through prayer, reflection, story and music.

June 14, Flower Communion, Revs Bill Neely and Jennifer Kelleher

Join in our annual celebration of Flower Communion, a uniquely Unitarian Universalist tradition that celebrates diversity, unity, and joy! Please bring a flower with you to the service that you’ll randomly exchange with someone else as part of the ritual. And plan on staying after the service for the Annual Meeting of members of the congregation, after which is our Spring Picnic!

June 21, What King Said to Us, Rev. Bill Neely

In 1966, Martin Luther King, Jr. delivered the lecture, “Don’t Sleep Through the Revolution,” to Unitarian Universalists gathered at our denomination’s annual General Assembly. Sixty years later, his words remain important for us to consider. Let’s learn anew from the message that King believed we needed to hear. 

June 28, Waiting for Pedestrians, Rev. Bill Neely

In the poem, “Beatific,” Tracy K. Smith observes a man cross the street with style and spirit before concluding, “Wait for this man. Wait for Him.” What can we learn from appreciating others who pass by us in our daily lives? How can waiting for and celebrating one another uplift our days?
