This Sunday, August 18th, 2024 at UUCLC:
We welcome back Rev. Esther Wallace, with a sermon titled, “A Community Divided, A Community United”.
Our community is wrestling with momentous, painful discussions around our collective identity. This coming November, every eligible voter in our county will be asked to give their opinion on whether we should rename the town of Kelseyville as a way to begin healing legacies of colonialism and wounds of genocide. As evidenced at a recent meeting at our county board of supervisors, folks on both sides of this issue hold passionate beliefs and feel deep pain around the status quo and/or the proposed change. While seeking to address the pain and division of this moment, this service does not seek to tell you whether your beliefs on this issue are right or wrong. Rather, this service poses a series of questions: what is our role, as people of faith, in tending to the wounds of a community divided? How do we tend to deep emotional wounds on a spiritual level? How do our UU values support us in moving from the space of being a community divided to being a community united?
Esther Wallace works and plays in the realms of meaning-making, sacred space, and social justice. Raised Christian, Esther is now a Jewish Unitarian Universalist, and she has cherished being invited to profound experiences in Buddhist, Taoist, Humanist, Muslim, and Pagan communities. Esther is a graduate of Starr King School for the Ministry and is very interested in emergent spiritual communities and the intersections of ministry and disability.
Our In-Person services are held at 3810 Main Street, Kelseyville at 11:00 AM. All are welcome.
It is the mission of Unitarian Universalists to create a religious community that fosters liberal religious living through worship, study, service and fellowship to make a difference to our lives, our community and our world.
Come Join Us In Worship AND Fellowship!
