"Unitarian Universalists Walking the Talk": Congregational Action and Social Justice with the Rev. Richard S. Gilbert

Hello Friends,

The Rev. Amy Freedman, Parish Minister of Channing Memorial Unitarian Universalist Congregation in Newport, RI has arranged with the Rev. Richard S. Gilbert, one of the true visionaries today in the UU movement, for a weekend program and service entitled "Unitarian Universalists Walking the Talk". You can find information about this program at http://www.channingchurch.org/walkthetalk/.

I personally have been inspired by Rev. Gilbert's vision for the UU church as articulated in his book, The Prophetic Imperative: Social Gospel in Theory and Practice. I hope you will join Linda and me in registering for and participating in this important program.
