June 4 Service led by Rev. Jen Raffensperger
A Faith So Bold: Flower Communion Centenary The first Flower Ceremony was held in Prague, in June 1923, led by Rev. Norbert Čapek. For decades, this beloved tradition and its powerful history have provided meaning to hundreds of UU congregations. Rev. Čapek and his wife Mája created the Flower Communion ritual to celebrate the connections between the many and diverse members (over 3200!) of the Prague Liberal Religious Fellowship. Rev. Čapek attracted attention for his work - and he was arrested in 1942 and sent him to the Dachau concentration camp. The Nazis killed Norbert Čapek. But his spirit, courage, and commitment live on, today. Those qualities have passed, now, to us, to make them real. |
