This Month
Imagination
Our theme this month is imagination. It is not only essential for individuals but the Unitarian Universalism movement as a whole. It fosters the ability to envision new possibilities in spiritual development and Social Justice. This month we will only be limited by our imaginations, which is not much of a limit at all. We will look at how our imaginations can enhance not only our spiritual but our everyday lives. We are a fellowship willing to imagine new ideas without prejudice.
This month we are also celebrating Mother’s Day. In these turbulent times it is harder than ever to be a mother: to instill a spirit of love, respect, and compassion in your children, and to show them a world view based on science, rational thought, and a commitment to justice. This month we will show our appreciation and renew our support for mothers who make the world a much better place.
Happy Mother’s Day

“Justice is at the core of our faith.” We have added a Social Justice page to our site. Go to Social Justice in our menu, to see our latest ideas, actions, and projects for justice. Ideas to make the world a better place for all.
“Perhaps the most important way imagination is currently used in Unitarian Universalism is in the area of social justice. As UUs, we are committed to making the world a better place, and imagination helps fuel that work. By imagining a world where people are treated fairly, where the environment is cared for, and where peace prevails, we are inspired to take action and create positive change.” Katherine Hofmann Learning Fellow, Church of the Larger Fellowship
“The world we experience is the creation of the mind. Neurological impulses frame everything we see, hear, feel, smell, & taste. In conversation with each other, we agree upon our shared reality, but ultimately we are each imagining the world that surrounds us. Imagination is therefore inseparable from our existence as humans, and in a very real sense imagination is creation.” Ian Cannon-Wallace Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Sheridan
Imagine
by John Winston Lennon
Imagine there’s no heaven
It’s easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us, only sky
Imagine all the people
Livin’ for today
Ah
Imagine there’s no countries
It isn’t hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion, too
Imagine all the people
Livin’ life in peace
You
You may say I’m a dreamer
But I’m not the only one
I hope someday you’ll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world
You
You may say I’m a dreamer
But I’m not the only one
I hope someday you’ll join us
And the world will live as one
All are Welcome
We meet every Sunday at 10:00 am at 1950 East Brundage Lane. More information see below
