April 6: The Practice of Joy
Rev. Drew Frantz
Joy is an important part of human life, allowing us to survive and thrive–and giving meaning and purpose to our days. At times Joy arrives unbidden and unexpected, but we can also increase our joy by seeking it and making time for it.

April 13: Joy in Times of Crisis
Rev. Drew Frantz
The nation and the world are in a moment of economic, political and social crisis. The attacks on institutions and people are overwhelming in their speed and brazen-ness. Acting on our values of love, justice and equity, we are called to resist authoritarianism and to protect ourselves and others. And a necessary, if surprising, component of that resistance is Joy. Joy connects us and reminds us of what we’re fighting for. Let’s support one another and share both our outrage and our Joy.

April 20: Springtime Joy (Easter Sunday)
Rev. Drew Frantz
On Easter Sunday we acknowledge the wisdom, courage, and love represented by teacher and prophet Jesus of Nazareth. As a secular holiday, we can embrace Easter as a day of life returning in the form of warmer weather and longer days. Joy has many sources, and the joy of nature in the springtime is one of the most enduring.

April 27: Earth-Centered Religion
Rev. Drew Frantz
A core piece of Unitarian Universalism is connection with our natural environment. Yet in many ways, we are a religion of thinking and ideas, and of human relationships. Other religious traditions are more earth-centered and less intellectual. What are you looking for in religion–connection to God and heaven? Being grounded in the cycles of nature? This Sunday we explore how our tradition fits in the context of earth-centered religions."
