Building Belonging- September 28, 2025

Building Belonging: Maintenance and Repair In honor of Universalism Day (September 30), we will explore how to maintain and repair the relationships that have built our community through a Universalist theological lens. We will do this creatively, through stories about vampires. You read that right. What would a Universalist vampire story look like and what can it teach us about healing, repairing, and sustaining relationships? Come join us for fun and creativity on this last Sunday of September!

If you would like to do some “prep work” for this worship service, watch the 1932 movie “Vampyr.” This entertaining and artistically rendered movie is rooted in traditional, dualistic Christian theology which posits that there is a heaven and hell, God and “The Prince of Darkness,” good and evil, and it is what prompted Heather to ask: what would it look like if it was rooted in a Universalist theology instead?
