Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Central Oregon
Together, we find meaning, celebrate life, and serve the spirit of love and justice in our world.
Why Do We Do That?
with Rev. Scott Rudolph, Minister
Sunday, May 24th at 10 a.m.
Ever wonder why we light a chalice to begin our services? How did our tradition of singing Spirit of Life begin? What is the purpose of our minister's stoles? Our Sunday mornings are full of ritual, tradition, and meaning. From opening bell to the benediction, we explore the significance behind the elements of worship.
OUR MINISTER
On Connectedness
by Rev. Scott
In 1820 in Boston, Unitarian minister William Ellery Channing said, “Religion, we are told, is a private, personal thing, between the individual and God. His neighbor or the community must not meddle with it… I would maintain that religion is eminently a social principle… The social character of religion is not sufficiently regarded.”
OUR BELIEFS
Diverse Beliefs, One Fellowship
Unitarian Universalist (UU) congregations draw on elements of a variety of religious traditions, as well as humanitarian and environmental values, for our spiritual inspiration and practice. UUs have a diversity of beliefs, and may identify as humanists, atheists, Christian, Jewish, Buddhist, Muslim, pagan, something else, or nothing at all. As we celebrate diversity, we also have a set of core beliefs that unite us.
