Sunday, January 16
This morning, Rev. Nancy TannerThies was unable to join us due to unforeseen family priorities, but we were, as always, invited to share the online services of our neighbor congregation, the Unitarian Universalist Church of Columbia.
Today, UUCC celebrated Martin Luther King Sunday. The Rev. Dr. C.W. Dawson Jr.'s sermon title as guest preacher was "Beyond the Dream." He quoted a homeless person posing the question, "Can white America be saved?" Invoking Dr. King's "I Have a Dream" speech, Dr. Dawson suggested the answer may be transforming the dream from integration to multi-cultural acceptance.
The sermon is available to view online: https://youtu.be/XMB-8WJmV2c
Next Sunday, January 23

Avoid long lines at the Dept. of Motor Vehicles when it comes time to renew your driver's license. Know ahead of time what is required for the REAL ID-COMPLIANT Driver's License going into effect May 3, 2023. If you're within 6 months of renewal, they will automatically ask you if you would like one. It's good to know what's needed. Come find out at our forum discussion.
Our Adult Forum is currently available both in-person and via Zoom.
