Archives for December 2021

January 2, 2022 – “Not There Yet”

December 28, 2021 by Fawn Smith

You’re invited to join us this Sunday for the first service of the new year, and the first with Rev. Dr. Steven Gaines officially as our minister! Some moments of life are in between—between what has been and what will be. Such experiences can be both chaotic and exciting!

December 26 – “Was Jesus UU?”

December 24, 2021 by Fawn Smith

In this holiday season, as much of the world celebrates the birth of Jesus, we can ask interesting questions. Was Jesus a Unitarian Universalist? Did his life and teachings comply with UU principles? Did he draw from UU sources? Was he a heretic? What does all this mean for us? Led by Rev. Dr. Steven Gaines.

Audio only. Apologies for the technical difficulties at the beginning of the recording.

December 19 – “Holiday History: The 12 Days of Christmas”

December 15, 2021 by Fawn Smith

Join Renée as we take one last jaunt into Victorian Era holiday history and grapple with the racist origin of one of the most beloved Christmas carols. And we’ll try to solve the riddle of The Twelve Days of Christmas – what is up with all the bird symbology?

December 12 – “Happy Heretic”

December 7, 2021 by Fawn Smith

Led by Rev. Dr. Steven Gaines. This will be Rev. Steven’s first time preaching since being chosen/announced as UUFF’s next minister (will officially start in early 2022)! This Sunday, he will guide us in a reflection on Unitarian Universalism’s heretical identity, speak from personal experience with heresy in contexts of “orthodoxy,” and encourage us in our own searches for truth and meaning.

December 5 – “Stone Soup for the UU Soul”

December 2, 2021 by Fawn Smith

Join us this Sunday (services now offered both virtually and in-person with pre-registration) for a very special zoom play, “Stone Soup for the UU Soul.” This play was written/created by our own Jules Taylor and will be performed by the talented youth of UUFF!
