This Sunday, May 31, 10:15am CDT - Flower Communion and Annual Meeting at Pilgrim House and via Zoom

Bring flowers from your garden to add to the fellowship bouquet, reflecting the beauty of our diversity and what each of us individually brings to it. Take home a flower from the fellowship bouquet representing what the fellowship gives back to each of us. The Flower Celebration as it is celebrated today by Unitarian Universalist Congregation was initiated in Prague on 4 June 1923 by Norbert Čapek, who was also the founder of the Unitarian Church in Czechoslovakia. He turned to the beauty of nature and had a communion of flowers. This will be a short program followed by the Pilgrim House Annual Meeting and lunch.
