The Gifts of Unitarian Universalism: In a country aching with loneliness and weary of dogma, Unitarian Universalism has something rare to offer: a spiritual home where you don't have to check your mind at the door, where love is the center of everything, and where your questions are welcome. This Sunday, as we close our "Gifts of" series, we'll celebrate the gifts of our own tradition. - Rev. Sian Wiltshire Find us in Costa Mesa, CA or at: https://ocuuc.org

Flower Communion: Curiosity asks us to look more closely at the world - and at one another. Our annual Flower Communion offers us the chance to do exactly that. Each of us will bring a flower and place it in a shared vase; at the end of the service, each of us will take home a flower someone else has carried in. What might we discover if we approached each bloom, and each soul, with a curious heart? Be part of the bouquet. - Rev. Sian Wiltshire Find us in Costa Mesa, CA or at: https://ocuuc.org

From Education to Exploration: Why We Changed the E in RE: You may have noticed that what we used to call "Religious Education" is now "Religious Exploration." It's a small change with a big story behind it. We'll explore why a simple shift from education to exploration says something profound about who we are: a people who trust questions more than answers, and curiosity more than certainty. - Rev. Sian Wiltshire with Danielle Lewis, Director of Religious Exploration Find us in Costa Mesa, CA or at: https://ocuuc.org

The Gifts of the “Woo-Woo”: Let's be honest — when someone mentions their birth chart or pulls out tarot cards, some of us lean in and some of us look for the exit. This Sunday, we'll explore the gifts of neopaganism, new age spirituality, and earth-centered practice with open hearts and curious minds. But like all traditions, they have gifts to offer. - Rev. Sian Wiltshire Find us in Costa Mesa, CA or at: https://ocuuc.org
