Newsletter - May 2003

Huntsville UU Services
Sunday, May 11, 10:30 AM, Laura Chapel at HMH:
Dr. Schulman's sermon will be "Emerson and Self-Reliance." Emerson is best known for his essay on self-reliance. It was a constant theme and his life showed his devotion to the idea. Yet the idea is little understood and we will examine what Emerson really meant by self-reliance. It isn't what most people think. May 25 is the 200th anniversary of the birth of Ralph Waldo Emerson. Our religion will be strengthened by understanding the great man better.
Ancient Reading: Luke 6: 43-49
Modern Reading: from "Self-Reliance" by Ralph Waldo Emerson

Sunday, May 25, 10:30 AM, Laura Chapel at HMH:
