Newsletter - September 2002

Huntsville UU Services
Sunday, September 8, 10:30 AM, Laura Chapel at HMH:
Dr. Frank Schulman's sermon is "That Old Time Unitarian Religion." Dr. Schulman says, "These are hard times. Maybe not hard so much as confused. There are so many problems facing us that we are tempted to throw up our hands and forget about all the turmoil. There are lots of things we can do and most of them won't work. A furious rash of legislation isn't likely to accomplish much. Peace conferences and economic sanctions haven't worked. Amidst all that, Unitarianism has a message our world needs. Unitarianism, we may say, is faith with its sleeves rolled up."
Ancient Reading: Matthew 6:19-33
Modern Reading: from "Unitarian Christianity" by William Ellery Channing

Loyalty Sunday:
We encourage all members and friends to be present in our service on Sunday, September 8 for our Loyalty Sunday. Our highest attendance ever was 52 and we would like to go above that number.

Service of the Right Hand of Fellowship
During our worship on Sept. 8, we will welcome those who wish to join the Huntsville Fellowship at this time, and those who have joined during the last year. This service is our way of welcoming into our church family those who wish to become part of us. It is not a requirement for membership but it gives the congregation a chance to welcome new members. If you have any questions about membership, please speak to one of the officers of the church or Dr. Schulman. (281 362-8226)
