Adult RE, Small Group Ministry, and The 8th Principle Team are aiming for a trifecta! We’re hoping to reboot Adult RE after the long COVID hiatus, offer the chance to experience a Small Group Ministry session, and provide opportunities to explore and discuss aspects of The 8th Principle as we move toward a vote in September on adopting it as a congregation.

Here is a schedule of opportunities for April: Please note, Saturday sessions will be at 10 AM on Zoom and Sunday Sessions will be in person beginning at 9:15 in the Board Room.

* Saturday, April 9 and Sunday, April 10 – 8th Principle Background Information and Introductory Session.

* Saturday, April 23 and Sunday, April 24 – Discussion of pages 1-36 of UUCV’s 2022 Common Read Book, Justice on Earth – People of Faith Working at the Intersections of Race, Class, and the Environment edited by Manish Mishra-Marzetti and Jennifer Nordstrom (Skinner House Books, 2018).

Moving toward adopting the 8th Principle is a congregational endeavor in which everyone’s thoughts and ideas are welcomed, needed, and wanted. Your unique viewpoint will deepen, enrich, and strengthen this process. Please plan to attend these sessions and add your voice to the conversation. Thank you!

Contact Wendy Gebb ([email protected]) with any questions or concerns and please put “8th Principle” in the subject line.

 

The 8th Principle: “We, the member congregations of the Unitarian Universalist Association, covenant to affirm and promote: journeying toward spiritual wholeness by working to build a diverse multicultural Beloved Community by our actions that accountably dismantle racism and other oppressions in ourselves and our institutions.”
