This Month

The beauty of midwinter is in full display in February. In-between swirling masses of snow falling to the ground there are crystal clear blue skies underlain by a solid blanket of white.

February is National Black History Month. It is an opportunity to learn about and recognize the contribution African Americans have made to our country, freedom, culture and economy. Every American President since 1976 has designated February as Black History Month. The Association for the Founders of African American Life and History (ASALH) has released a theme for the month annually. The theme for 2025 is African Americans and Labor. More information about ASALH and the monthly theme can be found at aslah.org

The theme for the month at the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Sheridan is Inclusion. With recent attempts to diminish the importance of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) it is more imperative than ever to remind ourselves of the prominence of inclusion to our culture, society, economy, security and future of our county. In our diverse American society today, it is one of the most important foundations of our great country. This month come and explore with us the significance of Inclusion to a peaceful, prosperous and secure society.

And of course we must not forget February is the month of Love. Love is the center of our six shared values and the basis of our bylaws and religious practices. Here at the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Sheridan we think every day is Valentine’s Day.

All are Welcome

We meet every Sunday at 10:00 am at 1950 East Brundage Lane. More information see below
