Between You and Me
Rev. Lerner
Instances of sermon plagiarism have begun to appear in our movement,
even in our own area. This trend is growing in other denominations as well, receiving national attention and raising a number of questions including whether sermonic plagiarism matters, what the purpose of a liturgical writing is, and what matters most on Sunday morning. This service will explore those issues, and look at what it is that happens between a preacher and a congregation gathered together for worship, how we understand that time, and what we owe it and each other. Children in Preschool – 7 th grade will begin in the RE Chapel this morning for a special meeting to plan for next Sunday’s service and to make some special gifts for some special people.

The Interdependent Web of Life—Religious Education Sunday
Rev. Lerner, Barbara Stoddard, Interim Director of Religious Education, and the Children and Youth of UUCSS
What do baby dedications, bridging from senior high to young adult hood, global warming, the big bang, stewardship, grief, equality, recycling and belly dancing have in common? They may just be a part of our service this Sunday that celebrates the incredible year we’ve had exploring the different facets of our 7th principle. Come to hear our children and adult choirs under the direction of Michael Holmes sing a rousing chant which was inspired by the Earth Charter. We hope you will join us as we honor our children and the many transitions in their lives. Come and pay tribute to the awesome volunteers of UUCSS that made this program possible. Children in preschool through senior high will attend this service. The nursery/toddler room will be open for those children that are not able to attend a whole service.

Matters of Life and Death
Bob Hirshon
What do Memorial Day, Mother's Day and Virginia Tech have in common? Find out on Sunday, when guest speaker Bob Hirshon delivers his annual auction sermon, this year purchased by Amy Polk and John Robinette, on the roots of violence and the origins of pacifism. This could well be the only sermon ever to feature the reflections of both Leo Tolstoy and Captain Kirk. Children in Preschool – 5 th grade will begin in the RE Chapel for a special assembly. Youth in grades 6 and above may attend the service or join their younger peers in the Chapel.

Coming of Age
This service, created by our 8 th graders, their mentors, and class leaders will celebrate the work they have been doing for the past 5 months as they explored some of life’s big questions and the human search for a sense of purpose and meaning. Join us as we honor Becky, Brian, Caroline, Greg, Lori, Lucy, and Maria in this important transition on the path of life. Children in preschool through 4 th grade will begin in the Sanctuary and will go to a special assembly following the Time for All Ages. Children and youth in 5 th – 12 th grade will attend the entire service.
