UU Fellowship of Lafayette

Greetings fellow UUs and supporters!

We will be meeting ONLY on Zoom until further notice.

Our theme for October will feature services focused on reverence -- deep respect for someone or something.

Sunday, October 3rd Service:

This Zoom service's sermon was originally given by Rev. Dr. Jan Carlsson-Bull where she speaks on Albert Schweitzer's 'reverence for life' philosophy that regarded all life as sacred and focused on everyday gratitude and respect for nature. What Unitarian Universalists believe is also studied as we have a history of avoiding creeds and dogmas.
Visit us via the Go To Link here on Sunday. If you are unable to attend, then you may view the interactive service slides here.
Read the sermon text or view the sermon video.
If you are on Facebook the service event is here.

Last Sunday's service recap:
Our September 26th Fuzzy Questions and Fuzzy Answers service countered the common misconceptions of binary thinking. While it would be nice to be able to describe the world in concrete terms of black and white, our actual experiences tell us that reality is ambiguous or just 'fuzzy'. Several examples are given to prove this point. Read the sermon text or view the sermon video.
