This Sunday, December 7:Service at 10:30 am: 
Many of us have spent our lives growing up with prayers for healing, comments of wishes for bodily restoration, and a rejection of limitations. Sometimes these are welcomed, and sometimes they are rooted in ableism. Disability is the only marginalized community that anyone can suddenly become a part of at any time. Join us this Sunday as we discuss what a disability inclusive theology looks like. We will explore stories of ancient disabled prophets and ways that we can see the divine reflected in bodies and minds living with disabilities. We will envision how, as faith communities, we can increase our awareness and care for community members with disabilities in our everyday lives. After all, we are all either disabled or temporarily-not-disabled.
Sermon by Dr. Laura McGuire Children's Program at 10:30 am: 
The children begin their Sunday in Friendship Hall with their families. After the opening hymn and chalice lighting they are sung off to the Egret room for supervised play with toys, books, crayons etc.

Nov 2 video now available
We are updating our video recordings of the Sunday services. The recording of Dr. McGuire's November 2 sermon, titled "Not so Different After All: Commonalities in the World's Religions" is now available on our 2025 Services page... The sermon was the third of our fall member-requested sermon series, looking at the beauty of how the world's religions overlap and intersect. Inspired by a meaningful conversation with a group that was proselytizing in their neighborhood, Dr. McGuire explored common misconceptions about the "uniqueness" of beliefs and deconstructed the often-proposed "proof" that one belief is more accurate than the others. 
We welcome our new choir director, Ariella Salinas

What Is Unitarian Universalism?If you'd like to get a better idea of what Unitarian Universalism is and whether our way of responsibly searching for truth and meaning might be for you, this welcome written by our Minister Emeritus, Rev. Dr. John M. Higgins, gives a quick preview:
"Welcome to this place. This is a place where no revealed truths are promoted and no scripture or human being accepted as infallible. It is a place for searching for truth, but we are believers. We believe in intellectual freedom, we believe in justice, we believe in compassion, and for concern for each other and for the whole world. We believe in commitment to those ideals which make us active in the struggle for human dignity. We are Unitarian Universalists." Who is Unitarian Universalist Friendship Fellowship? Born of the liberal Unitarian Universalist tradition and dedicated to the principles of a free faith, Friendship: We welcome all who long for a free and open atmosphere in which to search for their own faith, expand their spiritual horizons, or find new ways to interact with the world in which they live. We welcome diversity of belief and lifestyle because everyone deserves the stimulation of an intellectually active, emotionally supportive and socially conscious community. - The inherent worth and dignity of every living person - Justice, equity, and compassion in human relations - Acceptance of one another and encouragement in spiritual grown in our congregations - A free and responsible search for truth and reasoning - The right of conscience and the use of the democratic process - The goal of world community with peace, liberty and justice for all - Respect for the interdependent web of all existence of which we are a part. This congregation affirms and promotes the full participation of persons in all our activities and endeavors, including membership, programming, hiring practices, and the calling of religious professionals without regard to race, color, gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, age or national origin. |
