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.

June Monthly Theme: PLAY
If I get to pick what I want to do, then it’s play…if someone else tells me that I have to do it, then it’s work.
Humanity has advanced, when it has advanced, not because it has been sober, responsible, and cautious, but because it has been playful, rebellious, and immature.
They are enlightened who join in this play knowing it as play, for people suffer only because they take as serious what the gods made for fun.
To play is to listen to the imperative inner force that wants to take form and be acted out without reason. It is the joyful, spontaneous expression of oneself.
You can discover more about a person in an hour of play than in a year of conversation.
The world of play favors exuberance, license, abandon. [In it,] selves can be revised.
Time is a game played beautifully by children.
Don’t play the saxophone. Let it play you.
I count that day lost when I am not moved to laughter or tears, but even more if I have not played.
I tell you; we are here on Earth to fart around and don’t let anybody tell you different.
Life is for sure the greatest game that you’ll ever play.
