Dr Norbert Čapek founded the Unitarian church in Czechoslovakia and created the flower celebration service in 1923. Dr Čapek was born in 1870 and was murdered in 1942. The impetus for writing the flower communion came from his feeling that his church needed a symbolic ritual that would bind his congregants more closely together. Come and join us in this beautiful service.
Let’s discuss what we think about global warming, Enbridge
pipelines, Immigration and Refugee Protection, and electronic democracy,
in advance of the Unitarian gathering where the national position will be
decided. Allison Benner is a past-chair of Capital and Peter Scales
is the current chair of the board.
From the paleolithic to the present, the Mother Goddess has been worshipped and
revered. Join us as we explore her myths and traditions which, despite
all obstacles, have endured to the present day. Dr. Dana Seaborn, a local
Unitarian, began her study of Eurasian goddesses in the early 1980’s.
Join Rosemary as we raise our voices together to sing about everything spring.
Dr. Pullyblank’s homily begins by looking at general issues in mental health and a video clip of a case study. We then explore how our Unitarian Principles influence our understanding of mental health, and how mental health informs our day-to-day adherence to Unitarian Principles.
Dr. Pullyblank has been a Psychologist for 25 years, a Unitarian for 20 years, and a member of Capital for 14 of those years.
Wonderings and wanderings among religious denominations and tenets, philosophies, nature, books and friends. Are there answers?
Unitarians are famous for marrying same-sex couples but why do Unitarians conduct weddings at all? Why do some people like conducting weddings?
Peter has been a lay chaplain for six years and has performed over 60 weddings.
Is there such a thing as a spiritual atheist? How do we, as a theologically diverse community, gain insights from those in our midst who are atheists? What might a spiritual practice for atheists be? This morning we will look at atheism as a spiritual perspective.
Rev Shana Lynngood is one of the co-Ministers at First Unitarian Church of Victoria.
Rosemary Morrison’s Installation as Lay Chaplain and Peter Scales’ Retirement as Lay Chaplain
To celebrate the start of Pride week, which begins July 1st, Amanda will explore the Q in LGBTQ and why it is important to have conversations about sexuality at church.
This homily will be presented via a TED talk, with Benjamin Zander. Benjamin Zander is a conductor, composer, leading interpreter of Mahler and Beethoven. He is known for his charisma and unyielding energy — and for his brilliant pre-concert talks. His two infectious passions: classical music, and helping us all realize our untapped love for it — and by extension, our untapped love for all new possibilities, new experiences, new connections.
The old economic order is discredited, but it has not gone away. People vote for it, even though it no longer benefits the majority.
Ben Dolf will argue that we must do more than offer a critique, build alternative models or suggest remedies. We must write a story. A story to help us escape the present deadlock and to enable the majority to embrace a better and more democratic system. Ben believes that our story will evoke principles such as those embraced by Unitarians, but also virtues that enabled older generations to create satisfying and healthy communities. We can and must help write that story.
