 Greetings fellow UUs and supporters! We are meeting IN PERSON and on Zoom until further notice. Our theme for October is Awe. Watch a sleeping baby, a rainbow, a towering sequoia tree, or experience any number of life's wonders and you will be in awe. Simply put -- awe is seeing life as sacred. --- Sunday, October 30th Service:  Rev. Susan LaMar recalls her experiences during a visit to Birmingham, Alabama for a minister's conference -- recognizing that she was protected by white privilege at a time when her deceased black ex-husband's home town was in the grips of racism -- culminating in the death of 4 young girls in the bombing of the 16th Street Baptist Church.
