UUCMC Adopts an Eighth Principle, Committing to Dismantle Racism
Our congregation adopted an Eighth Principle at its congregational meeting on March 14, committing members to work to dismantle racism. The 8th Principle affirms and promotes “journeying toward spiritual wholeness by working to build a diverse multicultural Beloved Community by our actions that accountably dismantle racism and other oppressions in ourselves and our institutions.”
Community has become even more important in these challenging times.
On Sunday mornings at 10:30am we gather on zoom to light our chalice, hear announcements and visit with each other in small groups to check-in, and to discuss a reflection question. It is easy and fun to join in, and ALL are welcome! You can get connection information by signing up for our email, or by contacting the office at uucmc@uucmc.org.
Our Sunday morning Service videos can be accessed at your convenience on our website Worship page or YouTube channel (CLICK HERE).
Dialog happens on TUESDAY evenings at 7pm; check our Dialog page for more information and the schedule.
The weekly service link and community hour link are sent out via email each week. In addition, our weekly eblast that comes out on Thursday mornings has loads of information about UUCMC happenings. If you are not already on our email list, click the button in the footer to sign up. Our Facebook page (click here) is also updated as information unfolds.

May Monthly Theme: STORY
Change the story, change the world.
There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.
There are no true stories; we are making up every one of them.
There are only true stories. We are discovering the truth in them.
If we’re always looking in mirrors—made of glass or social media—and looking outward, we should not be surprised when truly new things don’t want to come through us to be born.
Many of us had thought that myth meant “not true,” when in fact the older meaning of myth is precisely “always true”!
When a person dies, a library is burned.
Stories are told as spells for binding the world together.
There is a you telling yourself another story of you. Listen to her.
Those who tell the stories, rule the world.
Practice listening beyond, or beneath, opinions. Opinions are only the thinnest surface sitting on top of the deep stories that we all carry.
