Family Worship: Garden Blessing: Please join us around the Winchester Unitarian Society Garden (near the back parking lot) for this family centric, 20 minute interactive service as we acknowledge the blessings necessary for this year’s garden to thrive.
This month, Embodiment: In our Worship services we will be exploring the theme of embodiment, the shape of ourselves, the work we do with our hands, the relationships we form, the physical realities of our world and our participation in it.
Religious Education Morning: Welcome! In the worship service we will be welcoming new members. If the weather is fine, we will be out of doors planting strawberry seeds inside. Please dress for the mess.
Childcare for babies and tots is available in the playroom with Juanita Simms.
Our Whole Lives and F8th in Action have rescheduled our canoe trip to the4th of June. Watch the weather and cross your fingers for a dry day. Please direct any questions to trip coordinator Fritzie Nace.
