Robert Kennedy was only 43 when he was assassinated, cutting short a career of service to our country. We can never know what he might have done, had he lived longer, but we can learn from his prophetic voice. Our service this Sunday will look at his inspirational messages to all of us -- messages that ring out across the decades since his death, with meaning that might inform our lives today. Service Leader: Gary Sjogren

Sunday June 9: "The Legacy of Olympia Brown" by Rev. Karen Stoyanoff
Olympia Brown was the first woman to be ordained by a denomination. Her life stands as a testament to the importance of struggling for and standing for that which we believe is right and just. She fought with words and deeds for women's suffrage and peace. Today's service will celebrate th example she has left for us as twenty-first century UUs. Service Leader: Mark Erickson
Sunday June 16: "Flower Communion" by Rev. Karen Stoyanoff
Reverend Karen will discuss the prophetic message of Norbert Capek, a political prisoner of the Nazis that died in a camp. He was also a Unitarian Minister in Eastern Europe and the United States. His Flower Communion is a lovely tribute to celebrating our unique qualities and welcoming all to our community. In addition to hearing about his life and views, we will conduct a flower communion, so please bring a flower to share. Everyone attending will receive a flower to take with them from this service.
