During Women's History month, it seems apropos that we develop our own service honoring women we've personally known, who have been inspiring and influential to our own growth.  We'll have testimonials/descriptions from a few members about their valued mothers, mentors, friends or acquaintances. The service will culminate in soaring song after which congregants and visitors may call out the name of a woman they have been blessed to know.

As the UUA contemplates big changes in its principles and purposes, we need to ask if ours is a religion with vision.  There was a time when Unitarianism truly was visionary.  I will look at that time, to see if there is anything we can learn from it. 

Sarah Oelberg has been a special education teacher, has written special ed. curriculum for our U.S. Office of Education, was a faculty member at Yeshiva University in New York and at NYU, and trained special ed. teachers in Iowa. She followed her heart as the first in her six-generation Unitarian family to become a UU minister.  After serving churches in Nebraska and Minnesota, she retired in 2001.  She and husband Gerald raised four children and have six grand- and four great-grandchildren

The meaning of worship is

to be shaped by
what is of worth.

We gather together in spiritual community because we need constant reminders of what matters most in life. In a world of heartbreak and dehumanization, our congregations and communities call us to our better selves. We learn to live with more wisdom, more connection, and more compassion.

Our Worship Services are weekly reflections that weave together our own thoughts and experiences with music, beauty, poetry, and words that both comfort and challenge. Our programs for all ages inspire and awaken us to our capacities to make a difference in our own lives and in the world.

UU CHALICE

When Unitarian Universalists light the chalice in worship, we illuminate a world that we feel called upon to serve with love and a sense of justice. To us, the flaming chalice represents the light of reason, the warmth of community, and the flame of hope.

We are inspired not just by religious sources but by the people with whom we journey: the diverse and spirited Unitarian Universalists.
