Seven Principles of Unitarian Universalism

   inherent worth and dignity of every person;
   2.

   2nd Principle

   equity and compassion in human relations;

   of one another and encouragement to spiritual growth in our congregations;
   4.

   4th Principle
   <https://www.uua.org/beliefs/what-we-believe/principles/4th>: A free and
   responsible search for truth and meaning;
   5.

   5th Principle
   <https://www.uua.org/beliefs/what-we-believe/principles/5th>: The right
   of conscience and the use of the democratic process within our
   congregations and in society at large;
   6.

   for the interdependent web of all existence of which we are a part.

Six Sources

   -

   Direct experience of that transcending mystery and wonder, affirmed in
   all cultures, which moves us to a renewal of the spirit and an openness to
   the forces which create and uphold life;
   -

   Words and deeds of prophetic people which challenge us to confront
   powers and structures of evil with justice, compassion, and the
   transforming power of love;
   -

   Wisdom from the world's religions which inspires us in our ethical and
   spiritual life;
   -

   Jewish and Christian teachings which call us to respond to God's love by
   loving our neighbors as ourselves;
   -

   Humanist teachings which counsel us to heed the guidance of reason and
   the results of science, and warn us against idolatries of the mind and
   spirit;
   -

   Spiritual teachings of Earth-centered traditions which celebrate the
   sacred circle of life and instruct us to live in harmony with the rhythms
   of nature.

*Announcements*

The Work That Reconnect Workshop Series Ahead

Beginning May 7 at 7-9 pm, Rev. Hilary Krivchenia will be offering a five
week workshop series on the Work That Reconnects, founded by Joanna Macy.
It unfolds as a spiral journey that helps us face and address our grief and
anger about the planet. The series will be held in person in the social
hall here at FUUSM. Please contact Hilary for more information at
wtrspiraljourney at gmail.com. There is a requested donation but the standard
is give more if you can and less if you can’t. No one will be excluded for
financial reasons. Preregistration is required. There are informational
flyers downstairs and with Mark or Megan Krivchenia and Dawn Hewitt.

Service Auction Events Still Available for Sign-up!

Several events offered for live bidding as well as fixed-price items are
