Prayer brings us together. Different people call prayer by different names, yet it is the same unified feeling behind our activity of prayer. In the Native American tradition we immerse ourselves in prayer and gratitude every day. Today we honor Indigenous People’s Day, joining each other in circle in a prayerful way. Jesse invites and encourages all to come share in this practice of connectivity through prayer in circle.
Twenty years after the groundbreaking Unitarian Universalist book “Worship That Works” first shaped understanding of Unitarian Universalist liturgy, Seminarian, LaVonne Limpus, revisits its core principles with insights of evolving community needs. She will reflect on how the book’s call for authenticity, intentionality, and spiritual depth still resonates, but now, how we can challenge our congregations to move beyond inherited forms and into co-created ritual that honors pluralism, ecological urgency, and embodied presence. Drawing from her chaplaincy work and professional speaking, she invites worship leaders to see liturgy not as performance, but as communal transformation, where silence, story, and symbol are tools for resilience in a time when UU Values are needed more than ever.
Someone once told our guest speaker that “So?!” may be “the greatest affirmation of all.” Come and find out why, and why it’s needed today more than ever.
