Sunday Worship Service
2025 July 13, 10:00am, “Scouting” – Matthew Darnall & Kathleen Kiernan
Several CUUC members are active in Scouting America (formerly Boys Scouts of America). The themes of service and environmental stewardship meld between scouting and UU. We will speak about our experience in scouting, as well as the ongoing work at CUUC done by local scouts.
The Sun Jul 13 Online Order of Service will be available shortly.
ABOUT OUR GUEST SPEAKERS: Matt Darnall, Kathleen Kiernan, Hozana (12), and Miranda (10) live in White Plains and began attending CUUC virtually in 2020. Matt and Kathleen met while studying mathematics at the University of Wisconsin. Matt works as a quant and software developer. Kathleen taught Mathematics at local universities until they opened their foster home in 2013. In addition to adopted son Hozana and daughter Miranda, four other foster children have lived with the family. All four of them find great joy in Scouting.
In the summer we meet in air-conditioned Fellowship Hall, with members of CUUC leading our July services. These Sundays are intimate so people can participate more and get to know one another better. The nursery is staffed for young children starting at 9:45am. Religious Exploration classes are on summer break, so we invite families to worship together, and we offer an area for quiet play. All are welcome to stay after worship for light refreshments and conversation.
