First Unitarian Portland

“All That is in Bloom” - A homily by Rev. Alison Miller. Come one, come all to our annual multigenerational Flower Communion and Bridging Ritual. We will honor our children and youth as they rise to the next and our longtime church administrator as she retires and returns to our wider membership. May this be a season of paying attention to all that is unfolding within ourselves and within our community.

This Memorial Day weekend, let us explore what it takes to be a hero in troubled times. We are hearing from national leaders who project an image of domination and "might makes right" as virtues to be admired. What might it look like instead to lead with compassion, courage, and humility, both in times of war and in the days that follow?
