  2. Weekly Worship | Spiritual Practices to Light the Way | Rev. T. J. FitzGerald | 03.16.2025

Mar 9, 2025

In his sermon “Weekly Worship,” Rev. T. J. Fitzgerald explores worship as a transformative spiritual practice—one that connects us to our history, our collective memory, and the deep well of resilience needed in times of challenge.

Rev. T. J. invites us to consider the meaning of worship beyond routine. We are reminded of the way worship shapes our traditions, strengthens our communities, and calls us to respond with love and justice.

In a world where injustice persists and history repeats its refrains, how do we answer? How do we lift up those who need us most? As we continue through this Lenten season, let’s reflect on how weekly worship grounds us, strengthens us, and prepares us for the work ahead.

This sermon is part of our Spiritual Practices to Light the Way series – Supported by the strong foundation of our living Unitarian Universalist faith and our vibrant church community, we are each called to deepen our spiritual lives so that we can have a positive and meaningful impact on the world around us. In this series, we’ll explore the five spiritual practices that light the path forward as we work toward a more just and peaceful world.
