"Summer Solstice" - Rev. Katie McQuage-Loukas - Thistle and Honey, BAUUC’s pagan group, will craft and lead a worship service to honor the summer solstice. Please join us for music and revelry to honor the season!

Guest Speaker: Bis Thorton- Bis Thornton (he/she), an aspirant to UU ministry based in Austin, Texas, is passionate about the power of creativity and storytelling in the work of healing, transformation, and justice. He is currently serving as the intern minister of the Texas Unitarian Universalist Justice Ministry and the chaplain at Wildflower UU Church in Austin. When she isn’t preaching from a pulpit, you can also find her reading Tarot cards, drawing zines, watching horror movies, and trying out new vegan recipes to share.

"Freedom Blooms" - Rev. Katie McQuage-Loukas - We gather together, bringing our own individual gifts and personalities. In our gathering we are more than the sum of our parts. In becoming part of that larger whole, we are transformed, and we leave the gathering changed. Bring a flower for our Flower Communion (and we’ll have some if you forget!) to celebrate the beauty in our diversity, especially in June, for LGBTQIA+ pride!

"Grassroots Religion" - Rev. Katie McQuage-Loukas - We are a democratic religion! Not just because we vote on decisions and policies, though we do. Not only because we believe in the democratic process in world and national politics, though of course we do. We are democratic as a religion because everything we do is formed by all our people, from worship to education to justice work. Who we are shows up in everything we do.

"Unitarians Face a New Age" - Rev. Katie McQuage-Loukas - This is the 200th anniversary of the founding of the American Unitarian Association! This is the first time Unitarians in the United States formed an institution to build a movement. What did they envision for the future of the moment? What parts of that legacy ring through two hundred years later?

"Religious Education Sunday" - Gloria Miller Our imaginations are much like our children and youth—rich with possibility and seeds of wonder. We water them with curiosity and tend them with community. Together, we nurture visions that grow beyond today. Our children, youth and teachers will lead our worship this Sunday.
