Explorers of the Spirit – “Questioning” – Rev. Dan Schatz
Inquiry has always been central to Unitarian Universalism. As part of our ongoing we explore what it means for Unitarian Universalist to be a people who question. This is a great service to invite your UU curious friends and neighbors!
You may have noticed that our Black Lives Matter sign is no longer displayed on the building. After standing faithfully through time and weather, it reached the point where replacement was needed.
As the Board considered next steps, we saw this as an opportunity not only to renew that powerful declaration, but also to expand it. The new sign we are envisioning would reflect Black Lives Matter and express additional commitments that grow out of our Unitarian Universalist values. As a reminder, one simple way to hold these values is the acronym JETPIG: Justice, Equity, Transformation, Pluralism, Interdependence, and Generosity.
The Board has begun discussing ideas for the new sign, and we want this to be a shared conversation with you. Because the sign is a public statement of who we are as a congregation, your voice matters. We welcome your thoughts, suggestions, and feedback as we move toward a final decision.
To that end, we will hold a Town Hall this Sunday, February 1, following the service at 11:30 a.m. We encourage you to stay and participate in this important conversation. Together, we can shape a sign that reflects both our values and our collective voice.
