"Politics and Social Action At Eliot Chapel"
Some people say politics ought to be kept out of church; others say that social action is inherently political and that we must choose. Unitarians tend to trust democratic decision-making in ordinary church work, but not so much when it comes to politics because we want to encourage diversity. How to unstick this wicket?
The sermon is delivered by the Reverend Dr. Daniel O'Connell.

"Five Smooth Stones"
If Unitarian Universalists don't have a single creed, a single scripture, or a SINGULAR prophet, what do we have? Five smooth stones. It is a concept from James Luther Adams, for whom our Adams Hall is named.

"Unspeakable Visions"
The Beat artists of the mid-twentieth century worked toward a vision of do-it-yourself spirituality and art. Don't you think it's time to declare National Beatnik Day? Bring your drum. And remember, "You're a genius all the time."
Sermon delivered by Eliot Intern, David Breeden.

The Community for Healing and Understanding, formed in Kirkwood after the shootings of February 7, is laying the groundwork to bring deep change into all of our lives.
Come find out more about the Bridges program, and area-wide, award-winning program for building understanding.
The Reverend Bonnie Vegiard delivers the sermon.
