JAMIE’S POST
In the Morning, In the Evening
Pizza in the morning, pizza in the evening, pizza at suppertime. When pizza’s on a bagel, you can eat pizza anytime.
The immortal words of this ancient poem have been on my mind this week as I turn my attention toward Sunday.
As you know, Sunday is our third annual Brunch Church, where we traverse the liminal space between the hanging over of the previous year and the dawning of the next by eating Brunch, just as God intended.
Ubc will provide coffee, mimosas, alcohol-free mimosas, and a pile of scrambled eggs.
We ask that you would bring a brunch dish to share. Something that one might eat at breakfast, or lunch, or perhaps anytime.
Something that transcends the imaginary borders we place around the temporal propriety of consumption.
Like a dish that is simultaneously pizza and bagel. Three years in, and no one has yet had the courage.
Anyway, see you Sunday and don’t forget about the Christmas Eve liturgy at 5:30pm tonight.
NO KIDS ROOMS THIS SUNDAY
Ubckids will be among us as we eat Brunch this Sunday.
THIS WEEK
Christmas Eve Liturgy- Tuesday, December 24th, 5:30pm
Brunch Church- Sunday, January 29th, 10:45am
We’ll close out the year by having a brunch potluck for our Sunday liturgy. It’s not before church or after church—it IS church. Ubc will provide coffee, mimosas, and scrambled eggs—bring a dish to share!
GIVING
UBC survives on the generosity of our congregation. Your financial contributions allow us to continue to create a space that is welcoming to all, embraces beauty, and seeks to live life to the fullest.
You can give, as you’re able, on Sunday mornings or set up a single or recurring online gift here.
