Worship this Week
Sermon: We Hold These Truths
Preacher: Rev. Anastassia Zinke
Special Musician: Gordon Kent on Piano
*ASL Offered Via Zoom This Week, Not In-Person
July 5, 2026, 10:30 AM — Description:
The Declaration of Independence begins with an audacious claim: "We hold these truths to be self-evident." But what truths do we hold to be self-evident as Unitarian Universalists? We affirm that every person possesses inherent worth and dignity, that we live in an interconnected web of existence, and that love and justice call us beyond mere belief into action. Together, we'll explore what these convictions demand of us—not only in our personal lives, but in the society we seek to build. And, like the Declaration itself, we'll ask what faithful people must say when leaders betray these fundamental truths.
Connect Card Reflection Question: What self-evident truth do you wish were being declared?
