We will soon gather in spiritual community for our final service. We still search for meaning and inspiration. We seek more wisdom, connection, and compassion. We gently transform the Christian sanctuary at Penninsula United Church with our chalice and banners.
Our worship services wove together our own thoughts and experiences with music, beauty, poetry, and words that both comfort and challenge.
Our services were led by lay leaders or guest speakers and provide insight on a range of topics. They were usually about an hour long. Our musicians and choir provided a wide range of music, including classical, traditional hymns, gospel songs, and contemporary songs.
Familiar Unitarian service elements included: meditation, lighting the chalice, sharing individual joys or concerns, readings (both ancient and modern), and topical sermons. The wide-ranging presentations stimulated our intellect, nourished our souls and opened our hearts.
We celebrated Christmas and Easter. We also honoured solstice and equinox with labyrinth walks.
You are welcomed to attend other Unitarian congregations who meet regularly. Unitarians are embracing of spiritual practices, beliefs, welcoming of all genders and sexual orientations, and accessible to people of all abilities.
When you visit
When you visit a Unitarian service, you will be greeted by a member. After the service, you will be invited to join for coffee, tea and snacks, and the opportunity to socialize and connect.
