Find ‘Poetry andSpirituality’ at UUCWI
Whidbey poet Judith Adams will share her thoughts about the spiritual aspects of poetry at the Sunday service for the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Whidbey Island.
Adams suggests that poetry awakens us to compassion and connects us to our humanity and to what is invisible.
The service is at 10 a.m. Sunday. The Unitarian Universalist Congregation meets at 20103 Highway 525, just north of Freeland.

Sunday talk is ‘Slaves of Christ’
The word “slave” is used more than any other term in the Bible to describe followers of Jesus. Given the pejorative use of that word over time, how does “slave” accurately describe those otherwise called Christians? Guest speaker Pastor John Groce will speak to that topic in his sermon “Slaves of Christ” at South Whidbey Community Church tomorrow morning.
Sunday worship is from 10 to 11 a.m. and is preceded by an adult learning forum at 9 with Stan Walker leading a study in the Book of First Corinthians, and Rick Zapata leading a study in the Book of Genesis: the life of the Patriarchs. These are open classes and everyone is invited.
Home Bible studies are also offered; check the church website for times and locations.
All SWCC sermons and special adult forum events are recorded, and are available at
www.whidbeychurch.org.
SWCC is a local independent, non-denominational church that welcomes everyone and gathers for worship at the Deer Lagoon Grange, 5142 Bayview Road.
