Do you feel a bit alienated spiritualy here in QC? Have you been to many different places of worship but nothing seems to quite 'it' your belief system? You just might be a Unitarian Universalist!
"Unitarian Universalism (UUism) is a theologically liberal religion characterized by its support for a "free and responsible search for truth and meaning." Unitarian Universalists do not share a creed; rather, they are unified by their shared search for spiritual growth. Unitarian Universalists draw on many different theological sources and have a wide range of beliefs and practices.
Both Unitarianism and Universalism trace their origins to Christian Protestantism and thus Unitarian Universalism has its historical roots in the Christian faith. But by the time they decided to combine their efforts at the continental level, the theological significance of these terms had expanded beyond the traditional Christian understanding. Today's UUs appreciate and value aspects of other religions ranging from Judaism to Buddhism. Although Unitarian Universalist congregations and fellowships tend to retain some Christian traditions, such as Sunday worship with a sermon and the singing of hymns, they do not necessarily identify themselves as Christians, nor do they necessarily subscribe to Christian beliefs. The extent to which the elements of any particular faith tradition are incorporated into one's personal spiritual practices is a matter of personal choice in keeping with Unitarian Universalism's creedless, non-dogmatic approach to spirituality and faith development"
Sound like you?
Wtih the closest UU church being in Chandler it makes it a bit difficult to make the trek every Sunday. That is why I am putting together a very informal meet and greet for all of us who have chosen this path. I have not decided on a date yet because I wanted to first see how many of us are out there and what dates and times work best for everyone else. If you are interested in participating please let me know and we can take it from there. I live in Rancho Bella Vista by Johnson Ranch. Contact information is below.
