Sunday, April 14, 10:30 AM, Laura Chapel at HMH:
Dr. Frank Schulman's sermon will be "The World's Strangest Unitarians." According to Dr. Schulman, "There are about 10,000 Unitarians high up in the Himalayas, in the Khasi Hills in northeastern India, just south of Bhutan and north of Bangladesh. They were tribal people before they became Unitarian in the late 19th century. They are a gentle, devoted people and their religion plays a major part in their lives. They worship in a mixture of Khasi and English. The sermon will tell something of their history, how they worship, and some of their unusual customs."
Ancient Reading: Matthew 5: 1-12
Modern Reading: "Principals of the Unitarian Faith" of the Khasi Unitarians
