Topic: 

Speaker: Rev. Charlotte Lehmann

This May 25 marks the 200th anniversary of the American Unitarian Association (AUA). On May 25,1825, at the Berry Street Conference in Boston, the idea of forming an official Unitarian organization and structure was discussed; the next day bylaws were adopted. This morning, we will honor our Unitarian legacy by leaning on lessons from our Transcendentalist past, from Jewish tradition, as well as our newly adopted statements of covenant and shared values, to imagine together a future of UUism that we desire and need, a UUism that brings into being a fair, peaceful and just world in which all can thrive.

Topic: Fighting for Our Freedom: What it Means to Serve Our Country

Speaker: Dr. Roxanna Harlow

It is no small thing to give your life for your country. In the United States, “fighting for our freedoms” and “serving your country” are phrases that are almost exclusively associated with military service. But should they be? What if we broadened the scope, expectation, recognition, and celebration of what it means to serve, sacrifice, and fight for our country? Let’s talk about it.
