As is Unitarian Universalist tradition the last service of the year, June 20 th, will be The Flower Communion in celebration of Rev. Norbert Capek who created this service to bring his varied congregants together in beauty. This service comes at a time when we also celebrate the coming of the flowers from our Earth, and in our gardens, bringing their beauty after the darkness of winter.
This year, as we celebrate from our homes, please have a couple flowers with you to join in the communion. This will be our last service until we re open in September on the 12th. We are planning in person services starting in September. What a year it has been.
