***This Sunday, April 14th***
Join us for a sermon titled, "Out of the Many, One." Our Unitarian Universalist faith is a celebration of diverse beliefs and the individual spiritual journey – the unique personal experience of the sacred.  But we are also a community of congregations, joined together in a larger movement, even if it is sometimes hard to articulate just what that movement is.  I believe there is a core  theology that binds Unitarian Universalists together, and more  importantly, I believe it holds the promise of growth even as many other denominations continue to experience decline. Our guest preacher, Kevin Carson, is a student at Andover Newton Theological School and  will be graduating in May.  He is the Ministerial Intern at First Church and Parish in Dedham through May 2014.
