The Value of Building Beloved Community

Our congregation’s first value statement is that We practice Beloved Community by welcoming, affirming and promoting the worth and dignity of people of all ages, abilities, backgrounds, cultures, and identities within, among, and beyond our physical and virtual spaces. Recognizing The Beloved Community is a paradigm, a way of being in the world, rather than a place with defined borders or walls, how do we build it? We continue our exploration of the Unitarian Universalist Association’s Article II Commission, by reflecting on how we make our values real. Rev. Eileen Wiviott leads the service with Bob Mesle as Worship Associate.

We will host an in-person and virtual worship service on Sunday, October 16th at 10:30 am.

Please submit your Joys and Sorrows through this online form. If you submit a message by 9 am, we will try to read it that Sunday. Thank you for your patience as we are adapting to best serve you all! Note there will only be one service time so that we can gather together as a whole community of faith. You can still give to the shared offering through “text to give,” mail a check to the office with “shared offering” in the memo line, or go to our website and hit “give” on the upper right or click here. This Sunday’s shared offering recipient is the Unitarian Universalist Prison Ministry of Illinois (UUPMI)
