Dissatisfied Foragers: Wisdom from the Bee Yard

June 28, 2026 at 10:30 am

NUUC member and Beyond Words Covenant Group leader Pam Spence presents today. When childhood dreams of exploring distant galaxies – or even that slightly more realistic goal of becoming a foreign correspondent did not materialize, Pam found a fascinating culture to observe, in her own backyard, right underneath her nose, in the beehive. In the process, she discovered a particular group of bees that she immediately embraced as her “spirit animal” i.e. the “dissatisfied foragers.”

Where Our Duty Lies

May 31, 2026 at 10:30 am

The term “Duty” often feels heavy, even crushing. A term seemingly made for others driven by militaristic or ideological bent that ends up as an obstacle to progress, rather than a path. However as Unitarian-Universalists and, indeed, as people, we do have a Duty. One that is not beholden to a rigid form or hard, fast path. One that can keep us in of the moment, and dedicated to a wider world. Come explore what it means to do one’s duty and the many we – even unknowingly – accomplish the task.

John Daquila, lay theologian, NUUC member, father, and Commissioned Lay Minister candidate preaches today.
