Love is the doctrine of this church.
The quest for truth is its sacrament.
And service is its prayer.
This is our great covenant:
To dwell together in peace
To seek the truth in love
And to help one another
To the end that all souls shall grow
In harmony with the divine.

See all- Sunday Morning MeditationUnitarian Church of Marlborough and Hudson, Hudson, MA
We invite you to join us in gathering to sit in peace weekly on Sunday mornings. Whether you need a time of solace during a busy weekend, want to deepen your personal practice, or aim to join Sunday service with an uncluttered mind, you are welcome.
Meditation is a discipline that is integral to many spiritual traditions, religions, and secular mindfulness practices throughout the world and human history. Meditation comes in many forms, including as an act of prayer, accompanied by music, chanting, mantras, breathwork, or practiced simply in silence, and those who meditate regularly often find benefits of mental clarity and calmness from their practice. We will explore some of these variations on meditation and thoughtful contemplation weekly.
Sessions will begin at 9:15 in the Alice Hart Room, downstairs at UCMH, and will include 25 minutes of meditation. No experience is necessary to join. Suggested donation $5

Unitarian Church of Marlborough and Hudson ([https://www.ucmh.org/] - Spring Awakenings: A Meditative Nature and Labyrinth WalkUnitarian Church of Marlborough and Hudson, Hudson, MA
Spring has sprung and we're having a field-trip!
We will gather for a meditative walk in nature followed by an outdoor labyrinth walk. During our walking outdoors meditation, we will contemplate our natural surroundings and the changes of the season, allowing for quietness and nature to soothe the mind while noting our breathing and physical sensations as we move through space. Prior to the labyrinth walk, Karen Szklany, Veriditas Certified Labyrinth Walk Facilitator
and Life Path Transformation Coach, will provide a brief overview of labyrinth walking as a way to renew mind and spirit.
After the walk, we will regroup inside for journaling and discussion. Please dress appropriately for the weather and bring a notebook and pen for writing your thoughts.
$10 donation greatly appreciated.Parking at the site of the labyrinth is limited and adjacent to private residences. We strongly recommend carpooling. If you are unable to carpool, parking will be available on the access road leading to the housing community. Please park all the way on the grass. Signs will be provided to direct you. Please contact me the week of the event for the address.
