Indoor Service at GNUUC / Hybrid on Zoom

Sometimes--well, really always--our lives and our pasts include experiences, truths, and events that we would rather not recognize as part of who we are. Our culture tends to encourage us to ignore, push away, or fix what we find unpleasant, which doesn't work terribly well. How can we practice holding all of our histories and "all that is our lives"? Can we learn to relate to what is hard in ways that help us create a future with more love, more justice, more joy?

Join us for our first Hybrid Service! During a hybrid service, you can attend either in person or virtually. The goal of the hybrid service is to make the experience of attending a service as similar as possible whether you were attending in person or virtually. If you are attending virtually, you will be able to see, and to be seen. You will be able to see the speaker, the pulpit and the surrounding area, you will be able to see the chalice and people who come up to share joys and concerns. You will be able to hear the speaker, music, and questions and comments from those in attendance, and joys and concerns. You will be able to share joys and concerns much as we have done in virtual services, and those attending in person will be able to see and hear you—Zoom will be projected on the screen in the sanctuary. Attending virtually or in person, you will see and hear, and be seen and be heard.

Please review the Indoor Hybrid Meeting Policy. We will take attendance at the door, wear masks, and keep distance. You will also receive a color coded name tag to designate your comfort level.
