SEPTEMBER
Ministry Theme: Beginnings
September 13: Water Communion: "The Tide is Rising"
Multigenerational Service
Rev. Verdis, transitional minister and Perry Montrose, director of faith formation
We will begin our congregational year in joy with our annual Water Communion. The Water Communion symbolizes the merging of our diverse experiences and selves into a unified community with water. Bring your water and share in one word what you will bring to our community this year as we merge our waters together in a communal bowl.
It is also the annual Pies for Peace. This event has carried forward the spirit of healing and generosity through homemade pies and freewill offerings. All donations for this year's event will go to the Danbury Immigrant Support Fund, which provides direct financial, legal, and emergency aid to local families affected by recent immigration enforcement in the Greater Danbury area.
September 20: "A Time to Build Up"
Empathy for ourselves and those around us is the foundation for the connections we need to build to “repair
the world.” That is the meaning of the Jewish practice of Tikkun Olam and on the eve of the holiest day in
the Jewish calendar, Yom Kippur, we will consider what that means in Unitarian Universalist practice,
including our participation in the Southeast Alliance for Interfaith Leadership. It is “a time to build up” a new
promise of home – inside of ourselves, in our congregation, in our communities, and in our country.

September 27: "Just Take the First Step"
Rev. Verdis, transitional minister
Worship Associate: TBD
Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., was known to say, “Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase.” As we seek justice in these times, how and why should we keep going even though the path is not clear? Maybe that’s where faith comes into play. Come, let us ponder this together.
