At long last our Easter Egg hunt is back! We will have eggs packed with goodies hidden all around the church. We have put a special surprise in a few eggs, so your child can start a savings account, maybe. The Egg hunt will begin after the service. During the service the children will have UU Play and Learning Trays they can take to their seats.
This is a great opportunity to laugh, have fun, and share your favorite potluck dish! We will also be playing party games organized by Marilyn. Please RSVP by Thursday, April 18 with your name and what you will be bringing. If you can’t bring food, you could bring cups, large plates, or forks and napkins. See you there!

March 2024 “Transformation isn’t about adding more work to your life; it’s about shifting your perspective so life becomes more fun, magical, and joyful.” -Sheri Salata The quote above helps me in so many ways. This month at SepulvedaUU, we will be exploring Love as Transformation. Well, what exactly is that? To tell the truth, it is as varied as the human experience. Yet, from a UU perspective, from a spiritual perspective, how can we transform ourselves into the creation we want to be? Work, yes! Shifting perspectives, yes! Loving more, a resounding yes! Once we find the sweet spot, more joy, more fun, […]
February 2024 Beloved Community, As we enter the second month of the year, known as Black History month in the United States, a shout-out to Carter G. Woodson. Woodson’s devotion to showcasing the contributions of Black Americans bore fruit in 1926 when he launched Negro History Week in the second week of February to coincide with the birthdays of Abraham Lincoln and Frederick Douglass. Woodson’s concept was later expanded into Black History Month. So, during this month I will share as much as I can of Blackness from an American in the United States, and from a global perspective. How […]

I am both excited and sad to give this message from the Board this month. I am happy because it gives me an opportunity to speak to directly to you but saddened because I am doing this because our beloved President is under the weather. Though you may not have noticed because she has been a number of our activities virtually, Janet suffered from a fall this past month and is taking some time to recuperate. She is recovering well and I’m sure she would love your well wishes. You can email her at JanetL@SepulvedaUU.org. She is planning to back […]
Our spiritual theme for this month is Divine Light: Marvelous Light “Spirituality is recognizing the divine light that is within us all. It doesn’t belong to any particular religion; it belongs to everyone” Muhammad Ali Light is a source of illumination, whether a natural one (like the sun) or an artificial one (like your lamp). Like light itself, the word can take a lot of different forms — it can be a noun, an adjective, or a verb, and it can mean “bright” or “not heavy”. Therefore, Light, when we move from theory, speculation, possibility, plans, hopes, and good intentions […]
