Our youth and youth leaders spent a week in Chiloquin Oregon this summer, as part of the Sierra Service Project. They joined  youth from different places in the western US, and were divided up into work teams to assist in building repair projects for those in need in the community. They also spent time getting to know people in the community, had a presentation about the local indigenous culture from local folks, and had time for reflection and spiritual renewal.

Rev. Robin and Rev. Don talk about the various different rituals that folks may see on a Sunday morning, and the various meanings. We thought it would be fun to give our opinions on what is our personal preference/piety, but we also want to affirm that if it is meaningful to you, that is the mark of whether you should engage in a ritual.
