11:00 Service ~ Flower Communion & Beloved Community
Twentieth century Unitarian theologian, James Luther Adams, often said that his favorite definition of God was “community-forming power.” Today we celebrate our own community-forming power by participating in the UU tradition of Flower Communion. Bring a flower to church to add your own color to the UUCC bouquet of fellowship.
*The annual meeting will be held immediately after the potluck lunch.
Speaker: our minister Cathy Harrington
9:30 Forum (downstairs) ~ The Beginnings & Growth of Unitarianism & Universalism

Reference material is UNIVERSALISM IN AMERICA edited by Ernest Cassara, and UNITARIAN UNIVERSALISM, a narrative history, by David E. Bumbaugh.
