Homework: Widening the Circle of Concern

That homework is to review the report, Widening the Circle of Concern (“WCC”), which was generated by the UUA’s Commission on Institutional Change and was presented to the General Assembly in June 2020. The UUA is publishing an annual plan for how it is following through on its commitment to implement the report. We have purchased a few copies of the report, which you may check out for a week any Sunday in the Social Hall or from Andrea during the week (just call her first at (803) 799-0845). Also, if you prefer, you may download a digital copy at this link https://www.uua.org/files/pdf/w/widening_the_circle-text_with_covers.pdf Reading this report will reveal both the depth and breadth of the changes the writers want to see in the UUA and associated congregations across the country.

Best Church:
Unitarian Universalist Fellowship

“A church where skepticism is welcome and adherence to dogma is suspect? A church where all religions are invited but none are beyond introspection? A church that regularly presents nationally touring singer-songwriters? A church where half the congregation might have been at Hunter-Gatherer the night before? Now that’s a church we can support.”

Lis Turner, Member

This is a place where I can always find big smiles, warm hugs, and stimulating conversations. It is easy to get involved and quickly become part of the group.

Carita Barr, Member

Carita Barr, Member: Growing up in a Lutheran state-taxed church, I never was very religious. But 40 years ago, I heard about Unitarian Universalism through friends. I found a home here where this diverse religious community really works to better our world. Respect and honor for the “other” is the main ingredient in our cooperative efforts as a movement.
