Coming of Age Celebration 2021

This worship service from April 18, 2021 was created and presented by participants in our Coming of Age program. These ninth graders spent the year exploring their Unitarian Universalist identity, history, spirituality, their feelings and their beliefs. Their work culminates in this worship service where each delivers a personal credo statement that they have developed. Minister of Faith Development Rev. Emily Gage gives a brief introduction and shares her own reflections following the credos. Senior Minister Rev. Alan Taylor also gives a brief reflection. In this podcast you will hear the credos of the Coming of Age participants. In order, they are Shawn Crimmins, Lindsey Libert, Zachary Polan, Cole Sidman, Ainsley McConnell, Aaron Willard and Persephone Hartrich. Introductory music performed by Ainsley Hartrich. The theme for April is what it means to be a people of becoming. To read about our theme-based ministry, please visit http://www.unitytemple.org/faith-development/soul-connections on our website. For the safety of all in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, UTUUC will NOT be holding in–person worship until further notice. We have also cancelled or postponed any congregational events that would have taken place. To see a video of this service, click HERE.
