SUMMARY:Rev. Shawn's Installation
DESCRIPTION:Come and celebrate the installation of our new-ish minister Shawn Gauthier at 4 p.m. on May 5th. That Sunday will look a little different\, in that the regular 11 a.m. service will be led by Rev. Claire Feingold-Thoryne\, a visiting minister and close friend of Shawn’s. \nThen at 4 p.m.\, we will have the formal Installation Service\, led by Shawn\, congregational leaders\, and visiting clergy which will include the full participation of the congregation. (Please click HERE for the words of promise that Shawn will say to us\, and we will say to him.) Also in attendance at the service will be visiting clergy from across Canada and the U.S.\, as well as representatives from the CUC and neighbouring Unitarian congregations. \nAt 5:30 p.m. we shall begin the reception in Hewett Hall\, with hors d’oeuvres by a caterer. Congregants are encouraged to bring sweet or savoury finger foods to make it a truly community feast. Given the large number of people in the Hall\, please try to bring something that requires little or no kitchen preparation. \nWe hope that you will join us on this rare ceremonial occasion. RSVP below so we can order the appropriate amount of food. Please also to let us know if you are willing and able to help with set up or clean up. \nWe look forward to experiencing this celebration of our shared ministry together. \nCarolyn Grant and Michael O’Neil \nInstallation Committee Co-Chairs \nDownload the Order of Service

SUMMARY:Evening Circle Worship
DESCRIPTION:Circle Worship is an intimate and participatory style of worship featuring ritual\, togetherness\, and reflection. Unitarian Universalist youth have been creating this style of worship for decades but it is enjoyed by and accessible to all ages. \nCircle Worship is open to everyone; come fill your spirit! Wednesday\, May 15th in the Fireside Room\, 5:30-7:00 pm. Our theme is Belonging and all that it represents: beginnings\, transitions\, equinox\, renewal\, and balance. Children will be supported in attending and participating. \nWe will start with dinner at 5:30 pm–vegetarian pizza and pop will be available and folks are invited to bring food to share if you are able. Ritual starts at 6:15 and we will end by 7:00 pm. \nPlease RSVP below so that we know how much pizza to order and how many chairs to set out. (RSVP’s after Tuesday night may not get counted for pizza–but you are still welcome to attend!) \n
