<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-size:12pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Unitarian Universalism is very different from traditional
religions. Our approach to theology, our
worship services, our shared ministry, our inclusiveness toward a variety of
people and religious beliefs, our activism for social justice ….. in all these
aspects we are different, sometimes markedly so. No wonder that it’s not easy for newcomers,
often with backgrounds in traditional religion, to figure out how to be a UU.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-size:12pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">The New UU series is meant to help newcomers, new members,
and new friends negotiate through these
differences and find their way of fitting in.
If you are new to Unitarian Universalism, we highly recommend that you
attend this course. This series is a way for new people to learn what Unitarian
Universalism is and some of the issues involved in being a UU . We will be covering such topics as theology,
UU history, worship, religious education, spiritual practice, social justice,
governance and polity, and membership. Those
who have taken this series found that it was very helpful. </p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-size:12pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">We will be trying this series in a new format … 4 sessions
from 9:30-11a.m. on Sundays from July 14 through August 4. If you need child care, please let us know in
advance so we can make arrangements. Drop-ins
are welcome, but we really recommend attending the whole series. Contact Darryl Ting if you have any
questions. </p>
