Join us IN PERSON for our ingathering water celebration at the Large Pavilion at Crystal Lake Park, 10:15 am August 29th. Wear your mask, and bring a small container of water to represent your sacred places and separate journeys over this past year.

You are invited to bring your own blanket or lawn chair to facilitate greater social distancing, and though we aren’t having an official church picnic, you may choose to bring food and enjoy a picnic with your own pod after the service. Dress for the weather, including protecting against sunburn and bug bites.

ALL AGES are welcome – this service is a chance to gather in person, meditate, celebrate, hum along to some familiar hymns, and share the stories that keep us all together.

For those who are not able to gather in person, the service will be recorded and will “premiere” on our YouTube page at 3pm Sunday afternoon. 

In case of extreme weather, increase in COVID cases to the “Severe” level on Covid Act Now, or emergency rules from the City of Urbana, we will move this service online to Zoom. If that should happen, we will make an announcement on our church FaceBook page no later than 9am on Sunday, and you can use this link to join us online:
