Please join us on Sunday (30 June 2019) at 9:15 AM for our adult religious education class — “Faith Like a River: Themes in Unitarian Universalist History” with Bennett Upton and Jax Schmidt.
Join Bennett and Jax for this workshop series exploring “the dynamic course of Unitarian, Universalist, and Unitarian Universalist (UU) history-the people, ideas, and movements that have shaped our faith heritage.”
This week — “Mirages and Oases: Idealism and Utopianism”:
“A vibrant stream of idealism runs through Unitarian Universalist history. This workshop introduces Transcendentalism, spiritualism, and Utopianism — three 19th-century movements which perhaps represent a high point of idealism in the United States as well as in both Unitarianism and Universalism. Participants explore the reasons for these expressions of idealism, examine how these movements shaped our faith, and identify strains of idealism in Unitarian Universalism today.”
