Flower Communion 100th Anniversary
Please bring flowers and join us for this special presentation featuring our stellar music artists, Krishan Power and Jane Perry!! Follow the links for more inspiring content curated by the Unitarian Universalist Association. (UUA).
“Beauty Calls Us Together is a song cycle with accompanying readings created by Kathryn Canan, Rev. Suzelle Lynch, and Ruben Piirainen. It was composed in 2023 to honor the 100-year anniversary of the Flower Ceremony, an annual ritual that originated in 1923 by the Rev. Dr. Norbert Čapek, of The Congregation of Liberal Religious Fellowship in Prague, Czechoslovakia, to celebrate beauty, human uniqueness, diversity, and community.”
Hello, Calgary Unitarians and Friends! We hope this message finds you well. Once again, we are adapting to changes in COVID management strategies and doing our best to safely include as many people as possible in our worship and programs. Please read through the new guidelines below for all of our participation options. We look forward to welcoming you and spending time together!
Unitarians
are united by values rather than belief in one set creed or dogma. Our values include acceptance of one another, compassion, and a commitment to justice and equity. We believe in exploring the mysteries of life, we believe in ethical living, we believe in living out our spirituality in this world by working for peace, justice, equality, democracy, and respect—for one another, as well as for the interdependent web of life, of which we are all a part.
We believe that it is not who or what you believe in that is important, but rather, how you live your life.
Music and Choirs
Music plays an important role at Calgary Unitarians — even during a pandemic! Music Director Jane Perry leads three church choirs and, aided by a volunteer team, organizes other musical events throughout the year. Our church is also home to community choirs, a ukulele ensemble, and more! At present, we have shifted all our music activities to the online environment.
Social Justice
Unitarian Universalists believe that it is how you live your life that is important. Our Eight Principles call us to ethical behaviour and social and environmental justice.
We invite you to explore the ways in which our church community acts for a just and sustainable world and to get involved!
