“Prayer and the Empty Chair” – with Rev. Dr. Barbara Whittaker-Johns

Sometimes the word "prayer" is part of our casual speech, as in "You are in my thoughts and prayers", or "Let's pray for peace." Yet often we may use it, or hear it, as signifying an intention we deem important, without being fully conscious of what is intended. In a service last April, I briefly explored what prayer might mean if we understood the ultimate nature of reality to be relational and event-like, and I told a story from my own prayerful conversation with a chair that got stuck in a stairwell. This service is intended as a bit of a sequel, further exploring the power of those prayerful "conversations" - both for ourselves and for changing the world.

Greeters: Liz and Dave Van Wye

What is Unitarian Universalism?

Have you noticed the new signage for UU Chatham at the corner of Main Street and Queen Anne Road? Our new sign (see photo) has a spot for information about the upcoming service. Each week, volunteers remove the old paper sign from that spot and replace it with a new one. Would you be willing to be part of the team that occasionally changes out that sign? You can do it with a friend or by yourself...it's easy and does not require special tools. Volunteers are needed for a few minutes after church each Sunday to make the switch. It's a simple process involving magnets, and Beth A. will be providing a quick orientation to help you get started. Interested in helping out? Contact Beth A. or see her in church!
