Come join us for a water communion or ritual. The first Water Ritual was held at the November 1980 Women and Religion Continental Convocation of Unitarian Universalists in East Lansing, Michigan.  It was created by activist Carolyn McDade and UU leader Lucile Schuck Longview “as a way for women who lived far apart to connect the work each was doing locally to the whole.” It has come to be used as an ingathering or homecoming ritual for UU congregations.
