Congregational Conversations after the service
Should our Principles, Purposes and Sources be updated? Join us this Sunday directly after the Service, either in person or via Zoom. (Zoom information will be included in your email with Sunday's links, available through our guest book.) Rev. Jay and other church leaders will be on hand to discuss and answer any questions around the proposed changes to Article 2 of the UUA bylaws. These changes will be voted on at the General Assembly in June. A survey will go to our members in early May to gather your feedback, so please come to learn more and be heard.

May 5: Service at 10:30 am:
Never Forget, Never Again
Rev. Jay Wolin
Monday is Yom HaShoah, the International Remembrance of the Jewish
Holocaust during WW2. I will explore what is meant by genocide and why It is
important for all of us to remember genocide. However remembering is not
enough. The goal should be to prevent future genocides. Never Again means
Never Again for anyone.
May 5: Forum at 9:15 am:

The current Vice-Mayor of Sarasota is a long-time resident who has twice been elected to the City Commission. She will bring her perspective on city/county relations and other Sarasota issues to our Forum discussion.

May 12: Service at 10:30 am:
Rabbi Jennifer Singer
Music: choir
May 19: Service at 10:30 am:
Inspirations
Sermon by Rev. Jay Wolin
I will explore the proposed changes to the Unitarian Universalist Association bylaws which
would change the list of Sources of Wisdom that inform our living tradition to become a section
entitled “Inspirations.” I will also share what has inspired me in my life and about Unitarian
Universalism.
Music: Synia Carroll
June 2: Service at 10:30 am:
E Pluribus Unum
Sermon by Rev. Jay Wolin
The title of today’s service is the motto of the United States: “out of many, one.” The non-creedal
nature of Unitarian Universalism leads us to a theological plurality. I would therefore say
Unitarian Universalism is the quintessential American religion. In our many theological
differences where do we find our unity?
