UUFJC Newsletter: Flame on the Water, February 2024
Yesterday morning, Rev. Nancy TannerThies joined us to begin our February theme: Justice and Equity. Although the idea of Justice can seem bright and clear, a precise definition proves elusive, and what Justice asks of us in practice is open to much debate. To that end, Rev. Nancy began by working toward a definition of Justice. Everyone present was asked to develop their own definition, which they turned in at the end of the service. A summary of those definitions is attached to this email, provided by Rev. Nancy.
Before reading the list, you might ask yourself: how would you define Justice? As you read the list, which of our members and friends' ideas ring true to you? Which do you have reservations about? After reading what others offered, would you revise the definition you thought of beforehand?
For those who would like to keep up with our neighbors at the UU Church of Columbia, their service from yesterday is available to view online:
