SUNDAY SERVICES THIS MONTH

February 5 Appreciative Inquiry. Sermon by Rev. Sally White

During this month of February, you and every member and friend of this congregation will be invited to participate in a small group conversation about the very best qualities of this church. What are you most proud of? What do you most appreciate? What do we do best? Where is the life and the energy? How does UCF most enrich your life? This morning we will preview those conversations - how they will work,
and how you can participate.

February 12 Growth is More than Numbers. Sermon by Rev. Sally White

For the past several years, the number of official members of this congregation has held steady at or near 70 people. Does that mean that we are not growing? Is “70” a complete - or an accurate - measure of the size and the impact of this congregation? Those who study church growth pay attention to four kinds of growth: growth in numbers, in maturity of faith, in corporate effectiveness, and in transforming the outside world. This morning, let’s look at whether and how UCF is growing. You may be surprised!

February 19  I Pledge. Sermon by Rev. Sally White

Each year, you are asked to make a monetary pledge to help pay for the ongoing expenses of maintaining our facility, paying our staff, and funding our programs. We hope that your pledge is a reflection of the value that this congregation represents in your life, value that the appreciative inquiry conversations help you to clarify and to celebrate. How will you translate that value into a pledge? How will you contribute to the ongoing financial life and health of this congregation? Today, let’s talk about pledging!

February 26  Occupy Wall Street: What’s Religion Got to Do With It? Guest speaker Rev. Patricia Guthmann Haresch.

What might Gandhi, the Buddha, Jesus, Hebrew prophets of old say about the Occupy Wall Street
movement? Rev. Pat will highlight some very similar answers. Our message this week will be presented by Reverend Patricia Guthmann Haresch. Reverend Haresch is a lifelong Unitarian Universalist growing up at Unity Unitarian Church in St. Paul, Minnesota. Reverend Haresch is currently the minister at the Unitarian Universalist Church of the Outer Banks. Pat lives on the Outer Banks with her husband John Watts Haresch, a family physician, their four-year-old son Will, and Shadow the dog.
