Unitarian Universalism has always championed the idea that "revelation is not sealed" -- that spiritual insight is not confined to the Bible or other so-called "holy books." Religious liberals have for centuries insisted that the divine voice can be found in many different places. In August, Rev. Melanie and UU ministerial aspirant Deanna Vandiver will explore in our worship services the "gospels" in several popular, even unlikely, venues. Our Music Team is working hard to coordinate appropriate music for a series of services that will be fun, enlightening, and, we hope, inspirational. Come join us for the unusual series, and invite your friends!
