Members, don't miss next week's service --- we will be electing the incoming UUFJC Board!
Sunday, Rev. Mike Adamek joined us to begin exploring our monthly theme of Commitment. Commitment, Rev. Mike said, calls on us to have wisdom to decide what we will commit to, will to take right action, and courage to stick with our commitment. The discernment of what to commit to and the renewal of will and courage are ongoing processes, both for us as individuals and for our entire Unitarian Universalist faith. Throughout our history, UUs have negotiated what commitments we make about how we relate to the transcendent and to each other. UUism has always opposed creeds of required beliefs, and many commitments to specific concepts of the divine have been left behind, but we maintain and renew our commitment to a core of transcendence and love.
For those who would also like to keep up with our neighbors at the UU Church of Columbia, their service is now available to view online: https://youtu.be/0mvycNfX2ns
Next Sunday, March 14th:
Daylight Saving Time Begins.
Remember to set your clocks forward one hour.
