Monthly Ministry Theme: The Gift of Heritage

A Heritage of Principle and Spirit: Women, Feminism, and Unitarian Universalism

Rev. Tim Temerson & Angela Orebaugh

11am Community Worship, October 8, 2023

There is an important conversation taking place within Unitarian Universalism about revising the Seven UU Principles. Today’s service kicks-off a two-part series about the proposed revisions by looking at the story behind the development of the current principles and the extraordinary contributions made by women to the development of those principles and our faith tradition over the last fifty years.
