Water Ceremony & Welcome Back

Welcome back! This is our traditional, first program of the new season. Each Fellowship member and friend is invited to bring a small amount of water from a place that is special to him/her.

The Water Ceremony, also sometimes called “Water Communion,” was first used in Unitarian Universalist worship in the 1980’s.
