Celebration of Life – 11:00am 

            January 18

This Web of Mutuality

Speaker: Rev. Liz Weber

 

In his Letter from a Birmingham Jail, Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King wrote, “We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly.” On this MLK Sunday, we’ll explore how his network of mutuality intersects with our own Unitarian Universalist value of interdependence and contemporary justice initiatives like mutual aid and networks.

Our Mission and Covenant (unison)       Valerie
We are a church of reason and spirit,
that witnesses for progressive faith,
nurtures our community and transforms our world.
