*Gathering Hymn Come, Come, Whoever You Are Lynn Adair Ungar
Come, come, whoever you are,
Wanderer, worshiper, lover of leaving.
Ours is no caravan of despair.
Come, yet again come.
Ven, ven, cual eres, ven,
Nómada͜ en búsqueda, si͜ amas la vida.
La nuestra͜ es la caravana de͜ amor.
Ven, otra vez ven.

*Opening Hymn #128 For All That Is Our Life
*Covenant Love is the doctrine of this church.
The quest for truth is its sacrament,
And service is its prayer.
To dwell together in peace,
To seek knowledge in freedom,
To serve humankind in fellowship,
Thus do we covenant with each other.
*Hymn of Praise From all that dwell below the skies
Let songs of hope and faith arise
Let peace, goodwill on earth be sung
Through every land, by every tongue.
Offering for the Westside Food Bank
Time for All Ages A Story From the Sioux
Song of Blessing As You Leave This Friendly Place Johann Sebastian Bach
As you leave this friendly place, love give light to every face;
May the kindness which you learn light your hearts ‘til you return.

Service Notes
Today 40% of our non-pledge offering will go to UCLArts and Healing to transform lives through
creative expression by amplifying the innate benefits of the arts with mental health practices.
Through partnerships such as the Creative Minds Projects (CMP) UCLArts and Healing brings together
volunteers and clients through creative expression and the arts at local homeless agencies in West LA
and Venice, PATH West LA, and Safe Place for Youth. UCLArts and Healing also offers a Social
Emotional Arts Certificate Program in interactive and experiential training in maximizing the
social-emotional benefits of art, dance/movement, drumming, music, poetry, theater, and more.

and has served UU congregations in Texas, Michigan, Florida, and most recently, Pasadena, CA. She is also creator of the blog, the JusticeHustle.org.
