Poet and Essayist Ross Gay writes about our current reality, 

‘[The wreckage] commands our attention, and for good reason. We have to survive it. But even if we understand the wreckage to survive it, it needn’t be the primary object of our study. The survival need be.’

The world is an often heartbreaking place. In this era of 24 hour new cycles and algorithms designed to keep us doom scrolling, how do we become better stewards of our own finite attention? Rev. Rachel is struggling with this and will offer some insights she’s gleaned along the way.

Reverend Rachel will hand out copies of Rev. EB’s News Zine at this Sunday’s service. If you’d like to view a digital copy, click here. If you’d like to print your own at home, click here (some assembly required). You can also email Rev. Rachel and request a printed copy to receive in the mail.

From June 21 through September 6, we will have summer services on Sunday morning. These services have lower production values, usually, but greater intimacy. Most weeks, People’s people will share reflections on things that matter to them and there will be time for small group conversations. The speakers’ schedule is not available as the newsletter goes to press – it will be shared in weekly emails.

The Order of Service is available here.

Please join us on Zoom or in person! Services are normally held in the Commons and over Zoom at 10:45am. Sunday Services can be accessed over Zoom by following this link: https://uuma.zoom.us/j/5527667326 Or by calling 1-646-876-9923 and entering the code 552 766 7326 at the listed time.
