Hopefulness and Hope-filled

According to an old Italian proverb- hope is the last thing ever lost. This week we explore how mindfulness and hopefulness are interconnected. They both have the power to nourish our minds and our spirits. Can we find ourselves hope-filled through the practice of mindfulness?

We Need One Another!

We need one another! In times of change this is even more true and UUCT is going through many changes. As part of this service we offer our thanks the outgoing members of the Board and offer blessings for those serving on the Board in the coming year.

Reflecting on General Assembly

Being a covenantal faith calls us work to repair and nurturing relationships. You now have the opportunity to attend worship in person (no reservations […]

Beauty of Community
