Our Weekly Newsletter
August 29, 2026
This week’s newsletter is available here.
This Sunday, Meri Murphy leads worship on Radical Hospitality: No Child is a Mistake. It’s about what it means to make a place at the table for everyone who walks through our doors, and how we can see differences as gifts rather than barriers.
Stay after for the last session of Chalice Circle Facilitator Training with Evian, Sunday, August 30, 12:00 to 2:00 in the Welcoming Room. This session covers “Working with What Emerges,” or how to lead a circle while staying present to whatever comes up in the discussion. Open to anyone planning to facilitate a small group at Saltwater this year.
September’s Woven Faith theme is Interdependence. Rev. Alison writes that interdependence isn’t a woo-woo fantasy, and it isn’t just an idea either. It’s embedded in the fabric of our universe, our bodies, and our lives. Her full message is linked in the newsletter. New reflections are also up on the Saltwater UU Minister YouTube channel.
Looking ahead: Rev. Alison leads a Labor Day weekend service on September 6, the Water Ceremony returns September 13, and the Transforming Conflict book study with Jules and Jim starts Monday, September 14 at 7:00 in the Church Zoom Room. Save the date for Skill Share Night, jewelry making this time, Monday, September 28 at 6:00 in the Welcome Room. RSVP to Amanda at least three days out so there are enough supplies. The next board meeting is September 30 at 6:30 on Zoom.
