Originally created in 1923 by Unitarian minister Norbert Čapek of Prague, Czechoslovakia, the Flower Ceremony was introduced to the United States by Rev. Mája Čapek, Norbert’s widow. During Pride month, we offer this ritual to celebrate beauty, affirm diversity and delight in community.

In this ceremony, everyone in the congregation brings a flower. Those on Zoom are invited to have a flower nearby them at home and something that glitters.

On this Sunday, we also welcome and affirm Rev. Jo Green as our Affiliated Community Minister.
