Flower Ceremony

Rev. Carol Strecker speaking

This Sunday we’ll gather in community to celebrate the Flower Ceremony, a distinctly Unitarian tradition symbolizing the beauty of unity enhanced by diversity. Come in person if you can. We’ll meet on the patio (weather permitting). Thanks to a downturn in COVID numbers we’ll meet in the sanctuary if the weather doesn’t cooperate. We simply ask that you wear a mask inside the building. There will also be the option to join the celebration on Zoom. However you’re able to participate, bring a flower or two symbolizing the beauty of your unique gifts. Together we create a beautiful bouquet. A highlight of this special day will be a celebration of the amazing gifts of volunteers and staff.

“Blessings on Your Journey”

Religious Services Committee

As we go from community to our own separate journey over the summer, whether they be far or near, we consider the journey, what it means, how to deepen it, and what we will bring back to the whole when we come together again in September. We will explore this theme through poetry; including a recitation by our own prize-winning poet reciter, Ava Beringer. This service will be broadcast from the sanctuary via zoom without an in person congregation.

From the Board

At a meeting of the new board held after the annual meeting on June 5th, Andrea Kaiser was re-elected as Northshore UU Church Board Chair and Susan Haas was elected Vice Chair. They are both looking forward to serving the congregation in this pivotal new fiscal year.

Afghanistan Refugee Family

A family who escaped from Afghanistan after US pulled out our forces has settled in Beverly. The father was involved in security for US military forces and he is here with his wife, who will soon have their third child, and two preschool sons. The local organization supporting them as they settle into life in the United States is eager to talk to our congregation about the family’s experience coming to this country and their needs as they start new lives here. Stay tuned for information about when this will occur. They need financial support as they begin their journey, and we will be letting you know how Northshore Church can help.
