Exploring how we love our neighbors, our physical spaces, and ourselves. 

“Love doesn’t just sit there, like a stone, it has to be made, like bread; remade all the time, made new.”― Ursula K. Le Guin

Join Magic Valley Unitarian Universalist Fellowship congregant Perri Gardner for a reflection on how we love our neighbors, our physical spaces, and ourselves. 

This service will incorporate an emerging Unitarian Universalist ritual—chocolate. communion. Chocolates will be provided!

Worship Associate is Jonathan Thompson

Our speaker this Sunday is the Reverend Jenny Peek, who serves our sibling congregation in Pocatello. Congregations across the nation are asking themselves, where are the young families, the single adults, the progressive activists and spiritual seekers who would feel at home here among us? How do we make ourselves ready, more welcoming, less closed, more … relevant? Join us this Sunday as Jenny shares her understanding and personal truth–that we probably already know, but really need to feel in our bones.

Sunday, January 19th, President Michael Becerra will provide us with a brief State of the our Fellowship. Michael will discuss where we are, where we seem to be going, challenges we face and the like.

We have a very good thing going and much yet to do.  Are there changes we should make?  What would people like to see and do?  I encourage all who are interested in our Fellowship to attend and provide input on the ensuing discussion.    

Our meeting will be in the sanctuary.  Afterwards we will adjourn to the Monica Tognetti Fellowship Hall for a potluck and additional fellowship.

Stories frame and color our lives.  The stories we tell about the past shape the future.  The stories we tell about the future we want help us chart the path to get there.

Sunday, everyone in our congregation will share personal stories. We’ll share stories that reflect the Unitarian Universalist principles or traditions which guide us on our walk here on earth.

We’ll get to know each other better – we’ll be brave and honest – we’ll have fun!

Whether it’s a story used to teach children a message, or a story your grandmother told you, we will share the pulpit and enrich our sense of belonging. This storytelling Sunday will strengthen us all and remind us that the Magic Valley Unitarian Universalist fellowship is a place for everyone.
