Politics Worthy of the Human Spirit: An Online Field Trip to UU First Parish in Needham MA
This service will be offered in an online only format.
Join us this Sunday to travel back in time and halfway across the country, on a virtual field trip to the UU congregation in Needham, MA in the weeks following the January 6th insurrection in 2021.
On that historic occasion in our nation’s history, Rev. Jenna Crawford of First Parish Needham preached a sermon in dialogue with a cherished book by Quaker educator and activist Parker Palmer, “Healing the Heart of Democracy: The Courage to Create a Politics Worthy of the Human Spirit.”
This week we’ll pause to look back and reflect on the relationship of our UU faith to our political lives, historically and today. Join us for music, meditation, and imagining together what it will take to heal the heart of our democracy and live out our 5th principle boldly and intentionally.
This Sunday service will be entirely pre-recorded and streamed online.
