As a Unitarian Universalist congregation, we gather in a spirit of joy to celebrate community and the gifts of each individual. We seek to be guided by love, welcoming those of every race, ethnicity, creed, class, age, gender, physical or mental ability, and sexual identity. We honor freedom of thought. We seek spiritual guidance and inspiration. We support spiritual inquiry. We strive to put our ideas into our deeds and to work for justice and peace.

Reflection for Sunday, July 25, 2010

EARTH TEACH ME
from the Ute Indians of North America

Earth teach me stillness as
the grasses are stilled with light

Earth teach me suffering as
old stones suffer with memory.

Earth teach me caring as
parents who secure their young.

Earth teach me courage as
the tree which stands all alone.

Earth teach me limitation as
the ant which crawls on the ground.

Earth teach me freedom as
the eagle which soars in the sky

Earth teach me resignation as
the leaves which die in the fall.

Earth teach me regeneration as
the seed which rises in the spring.  read more »
