Today, we will talk about the kinds of things we can do as a church and as individuals to live into our 8th Principle.
We will think about times when someone may have misjudged us without knowing us and how harmful that can be when whole groups of people have wrong ideas about other group of people (especially when they have acted on those wrong ideas for generations).
Contact Susan Caldwell by email if you have any questions.

What Now? Living the 8th Principle with Susan Caldwell and Barbara Deger — In December 2020, we celebrated our congregational ratification of the Eighth Principle of Unitarian Universalism.
We noted at the time that the language of this principle holds us accountable to the work of dismantling systemic racism and white supremacy culture.
Susan and Barbara attended the New Day Rising workshop on 28 February 2021 and want to share some ideas from the conference for next steps we can take with the Eighth Principle.

World Religions and Rituals of Mourning and Loss — The late Rev. Forrest Church said “Religion is the human response to being alive and having to die.”
Our President has shown a keen understanding — born of hard experience — that humans need to set aside time and space to remember those who have died and to mourn that loss.
This is particularly important in a time when we have lost so many and lost so much of the life we once knew.
This morning we will take some time to explore that need and the way it is expressed throughout different religions and cultures around the world.
