Call to Imagination (Online Service)
For so many of us, the practice of imagination is left behind after childhood. But what if we reincorporated the magic of imagination into our daily lives? What might we imagine anew for ourselves? What might we dream up for our world? How might doing the work of imagination in community be a pathway to justice and love? This Sunday, we will revisit the practice of imagination as a form of “play,” our worship theme for June.
Liz Murphy (she/her) recently completed her intern ministry at Throop Unitarian Universalist Church in Pasadena, CA. She will be ordained as a Unitarian Universalist minister this August, and is looking forward to what ministry will hold in the future. Liz graduated from the Claremont School of Theology with a Master of Divinity in 2020, and we’re delighted to welcome her back to our pulpit. Originally from Pittsburgh, she lives in Los Angeles with her wife, Hilary.

Called to Belong
Are there places you know you just belong? Places you don’t need to explain or qualify your being there, or being with those people. Each of these might feel like a home of sorts, but for many people the very places and people they don’t feel like they belong to can be intrusive and traumatic, leaving a feeling that affects even the places they should feel safest. Come worship the inherent worth and dignity of all, to belong.

Camp de Benneville Pines Weekend
Each year, UUCCSM members and friends flock to Camp deBenneville Pines, an idyllic rustic paradise two hours east of Santa Monica (if you leave at the right time on Friday) for a weekend of reveling in nature, ping pong tournaments, dam building, s'mores, tie-dying and sing-along versions of every ‘60s song you know (or don’t).
New this year, we have DeReau Farrar (UUSM music director) and our choir section leaders inspiring us with music and wine pairing!
You are invited to join us! Singles, couples and families young and old enjoy clean mountain air, lots of activities, great camp food and fellowship. Rustic heated cabins are clean and comfortable, with indoor plumbing and hot showers, for "roughing it, gently". And now we have paved roads!
To sign up, download our registration form. Prices start at $145/person for adults, $85/person for kids and $110 for teens, and that includes all food and activities for the weekend!
Also this year, we’re offering a limited number of financial aid "camperships" for those who need it. If that's your situation, your camp fee is just half-price (down to a slight $73 per adult), and FREE for kids/teens. Or alternately, if you're flush with cash, you could contribute to the campership pot, which'd help even more campers make it to deBenneville in September. A full camp is a happy camp and we aim to be very happy.
