This Sunday July 31st, we will be going to Tygart Lake State Park for our Sunday Service. We will have a short service, a pot luck picnic, and then we will hike, swim, or play for the rest of the day.
Here is a map
We would love to have you come worship with us.
We have Spiritual Outings on the third Sunday during the summer. This month, we have changed to the last Sunday because so many of us are in a theater production on the third Sunday. We will gather at Tygart Lake State Park at 11 a.m. for a short service, followed by a potluck picnic, conversation, and walking or swimming in the lake. There are trails and restrooms which are wheelchair-accessible.
Please email westforkuu@gmail.com if you would like to carpool.

Pokémon Go seems to have taken over the thoughts of America right now. We found this post from the UU church in Fresno and thought we would share.

PS: also if you are out there playing, pick up some litter and be careful.
Prelude: Mozart’s Jupiter Symphony 2nd Movement
Welcome:
“Belief must be something different from a mixture of opinions about God and the world, and of precepts for one life or for two. Piety cannot be an instinct craving for a mess of metaphysical and ethical crumbs.”
― Friedrich Schleiermacher, On Religion: Speeches to Its Cultured Despisers
“Whenever I find a spark of that hidden fire that will sooner or later consume the old and create the new, I am drawn to it with love and hope, regarding it as a sign of my future home.”
― Friedrich Schleiermacher
Chalice Lighting: IN THE MYSTERY OF LIFE ABOUT US THERE IS LIGHT. By George Kimmich Beach
In the mystery of life about us there is light.
It gives us a place to be, to grow, to rejoice together.
It opens the pathways to love.
In this place of friendship there is freedom.
Let the light we kindle go before us,
Strong in hope, wide in good will,
Inviting the day to come.
If you were unable to make it today, the full service is uploaded on our blog for your reflection.
Have a beautiful day.
Namaste,
Cricket
More on last week’s service topic.
Why does a book that loves knowledge make its villain a brain?
As a disembodied brain, IT is a symbol of pure rationality, of the idea that all questions and problems can be solved with logic.

This summer take the whole family to Morgantown to see ancient history revised — Homer with a very modern voice.
M. T. Pockets Theatre presents The Hysterical History of the Trojan War, A Children’s Play, by D. M. Larson, directed by Nicki Davis, and featuring WFUU’s own Loki, Persephone, and Rhapsody Hall.
Homer would be amazed.
