Spiritual Growth
We’re a community that values learning, questions and spiritual growth.
Wherever you are on your spiritual journey, you are welcome here.
Midweek Midrash
These gatherings are led by Rev. Elisabeth on Zoom (with occasional onsite gatherings as well). All are welcome, whether you’re a seasoned midrasher or you’ve never heard of this way of exploring the Bible.
Simply bring your midrashic imagination as we turn the texts for worship together.
Sign up here and Rev. Elisabeth will add you to her list.
Sunday Worship
Worship is the heartbeat of our community—and the work of the people. We strive to ground our common life in worship that is creative, contemporary, relevant and deeply grounded in the liveliness of God.
On the Worship Archives page, you can access all our worship content in the format that’s best for you—YouTube livestream recordings, Sunday Soul Food mailings or the Cedar Park United podcast.
Joint Spirituality Studies
Over the past few years, we’ve done multiple spirituality studies together with people from several communities of faith. It’s been wonderful and enriching and we plan on participating in more of these in the upcoming year.
This fall’s study, led by Rev. Elisabeth and Rev. Darryl Macdonald from Roxboro United, is of Brian McClaren’s book, Do I Stay Christian?
This study will happen on Zoom and begins on October 30. Find out more and register here.
Youth Spirit Quest
Youth Spirit Quest is where people going through adolescence get to figure out how they can inhabit the world as a spiritual person... (having a human experience).
This 5-session programme is for youth in grades 6 through 11 and offers a safe, LGBTQ+-affirming and respectful space for exploring questions (not providing all the answers) around spirituality, ethics, life choices, and identity within the human (and holy) story.
The cost (to cover supplies and food) is $40 per youth. If the cost would keep you from participating, please let us know below as bursaries are available.
The Fall 2024 session of YSQ is currently underway.
