Upcoming Service
SUNDAY 9/15/24
​11:00am
"Homecoming + Water Ceremony"
​
Service Presenter: Susan Rogers
As summer officially draws to a close, we welcome back those who have been away, and celebrate our growing community. This is a call for all to return to our spiritual home, MVUUC.
Part of the service involved a water ceremony. If you have water samples from your travels, or from a place special to you, bring them to participate. The meaning of this UU tradition is to represent our faith drawing from different spiritual sources.
We hope to see many familiar and new faces!

THIS WEEK
The recent school shooting in Georgia raises a question that now has precedent in other recent cases: Should parents be criminally charged when their minor child commits a crime? Do parents have moral, ethical, or legal responsibility for the acts of their children? What factors should be considered when making this kind of charging decision? A related and important issue is the increasing frequency with which minor children are being charged as adults in these cases. One commentator says that charging a child as an adult is inconsistent with also holding parents responsible. Join us this week for our Open Circle consideration of this thorny topic.
