Flower Service

Speaker & Worship Leader:- Karn Cleary

11.00am Sunday 18th October

“The Flower Communion is based on a service developed by Dr Norbert Capek, the minister of what is now the Transylvanian Unitarian Church in Prague, during the 1930s. He wanted a ritual that would encourage the idea of a church as a community, whose individual people formed a greater whole.

For our service, each of you is asked to bring a flower that will be placed with everyone else’s into a vase during the service. The choice of flower is entirely yours, and Norbert Capek emphasised that they could just be something you found growing by the road-side – please don’t feel you have to buy flowers. If you can’t bring one, there will be plenty of flowers available in the foyer for you to choose from to use during the service.”

Famous writers who were UUs

Speaker:- Peter Lineham

Worship Leader:- Ted Zorn

11.00am Sunday 25th October

We will continue the year with further services that both help us to reflect on our values and principles and to consider these in action.

Seeking youth group builder/leader

Share this page...

Auckland Unitarians are looking for a leader to create and lead a youth group in our community.

Our vision is that in these times of high anxiety around climate change, increasing inequality and racial tensions, that our community is able to stand as a source of hope and spiritual inspiration and support. We believe that for young people in Auckland, there is a need for such a community

We would be able to provide a curriculum, or the youth leader could develop their own, as long as it was in line with Unitarian–Universalist principles. The group would be expected to meet in the church building in Ponsonby, on a weekly or fortnightly basis.

If you are interested, or know of anyone who might be suitable for this role, please email us at youthgroup@aucklandunitarian.org.nz
