UUs have been celebrating Water Communions since 1980. It has been a longstanding tradition at UUCC. This Communion is also known as a Water Ceremony or In-gathering and is the way we begin the new church year. Since we are meeting virtually, we ask that you prepare a small amount of water that represents some place or something that is special to you. You will be prompted to share that on screen and symbolically pour that water into the communal bowl by stating what this water represents to you. The combined water is a symbol of our shared faith and community.
On Faith, Hope, and Love
This Father’s Day service will blend the values of faith, hope, and love, as Chip Harriford shares stories of fatherhood, the importance of Juneteenth, and his connection to the Charleston Nine.
