June Services

Sunday, June 6, 11 a.m. at Sasamat Outdoor Centre Worship at Camp Sasamat
Rev. Katie Stein Sather
The service is at 11 am, at Sasamat Outdoor Centre in Belcarra. More music!
Sunday, June 13, 9:30 a.m. Seven Songs for Seven Principles
Allegra Sloman
Service Coordinator: Bareld Nieuwenhuis
Join us for a musical exploration of Unitarian principles from our beloved hymnal, Singing the Living Tradition. Some will be dearly familiar, and others new to everyone. Each song highlights a Unitarian principle, and rather than a homily, there will be words and poetry to be the warp to the weft of our singing.

Food Bank Sunday: please bring a donation of nonperishable food for the SHARE food bank.
Sunday, June 20, 9:30 a.m. Stone Soup Intergenerational Worship
Rev. Katie Stein Sather & the children
It takes all of us to make the meal! And our community. This is the last formal service at Sapperton Hall until September.

The service will be followed by our annual end of the year BBQ celebration. The BBQ will be held at Mackin Park on the corner of Brunette and Marmont/King Edward in Coquitlam. Although it is certain to be a sunny day, we will have use of the picnic shelter in case of a sudden shower. Please bring your own dishes and lawnchairs if desired. kathleenjohnston@telus.net or 604-937-0890 to sign up and to bring a dish or a BBQ grill.

There is no audition for singers or players; we welcome you as you are. There will be hymnbooks, including the "Joyce Poley" books. If you've hungered for more than three hymns at a service and would be just as happy singing as listening to the sermon on a beautiful August morning, this is the service for you. If you don't know all our hymns, it's a wonderful opportunity to get comfortable with a few more of our musical treasures. Please join us after the service for beverages and conversation and a potluck lunch. Call Peggy Lunderville for any questions or further information. Location: Lunderville residence—604-522-3001
