Rebuilding Trust

Nov. 15, 2020 at 11:00 am Rev. Dr. John A. Buehrens

Our culture has been rendered paranoid. This spiritual illness is a threat to human decency and community. What will it take to rebuild trust, both within ourselves and science, society, and our politics?

Our pulpit guest will be former UUA President John Buehrens, a long-time friend of UUCC. He is the author or co-author of seven books on liberal religion, most recently of Conflagration: How the Transcendentalists Sparked the American Struggle for Racial, Gender, and Social Justice. He will speak to us via Zoom from his home in San Francisco. Please feel free to invite others to join in welcoming him.

Jane and Bob Gillespie, Members

For much of our married life, we were without a church home, but felt our lives would be enriched if we could find a place where we were part of something greater than ourselves. The UUCC became that place. There, we’ve made great friends, enjoyed meaningful fellowship and found a sense of peace. It’s just what we were looking for.

Linda and Richard McLeod, Members

We were looking for a church where we felt accepted both intellectually and spiritually, a place where all people and religions were regarded equally without condemnation. Our search began at UUCC six years ago and we never had to look any further. We found our place here with a community of like-minded people and it became our second home, our second family.

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.
