Sunday, August 2nd: Art and Spirituality. What is your relationship to art? Are you a creator or an appreciator? How does art ground you, move you, lift your spirit, or make you think? Three artists from our congregation will speak about their art as a spiritual practice. Music will include improvisations by Mary Bopp. Speakers are Karin Dionne, Marian Vitale, and Jane Penfield.Coordinators: Jane Penfield and David Klotz

Sunday, August 9th: The 4 Agreements Part 2. Sam Taylor and Liz Garmise close their two-part series about the book The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz with the last two agreements: Don't Make Assumptions and Always Do Your Best. We know what happens when we ass/u/me... but how do we avoid falling into that trap, especially with the people we know best? And how do we find a balance between always doing our best... and running ourselves ragged? Please join us for a thought-provoking morning as we explore how Ruiz's agreements can help us better live the UU principles and values. Coordinators: Sam Taylor and Liz Garmise

Sunday, August 16th: Our Poetry Connection. Many things bind our beloved community together—too many to name here. Among them are the arts, and for this service, poetry. Join us as members and friends share poems they wrote or by their favorite poet that inspire them and hold personal meaning. Coordinators: Sandy Karosi and Martha Larson

Sunday, August 23rd: Blessed Are The Animals. As Unitarian Universalists, we believe all life is sacred. For anyone who has had a connection to an animal, you have felt the interdependence of all life. On August 23rd, we will lift up our non-human family and celebrate all that they bring to our lives. Coordinators: Paula Baker and Ellen Williams

Sunday, August 30th: Coffee House. Join us for our annual coffee house service, at which many of our UUSE musicians and poets share their talents. This service has become a beloved end-of-summer tradition for us. Always fun, always meaningful, always a wonderful reflection of the diversity and passion within the UUSE community. Coordinator: Rev. Josh Pawelek.
