JOIN US FOR OUR NEXT SESSION SUNDAY, JUNE 4 AFTER COFFEE HOUR
BRING A BAG LUNCH!
Every year we participate in the UUA’s Common Read which we call the All Church Read. The 2022–2023 UU Common Read is Mistakes and Miracles: Congregations on the Road to Multiculturalism by Nancy Palmer Jones and Karin Lin, published by Skinner House Books. Our first discussion was held on March 26 facilitated by Rev. Maddie with the theme of Every Congregation Has a Story. The third discussion, facilitated by Rev. Maddie will be at noon on Sunday, June 4 with the title of History and Hope.

The authors of this book, Nancy Palmer Jones and Karin Lin—a white minister and a lay person of color—explored five UU congregations' journeys toward Beloved Community. In Mistakes and Miracles: Congregations on the Road to Multiculturalism (Skinner House Books, 2019), they shared the joy, disappointment, and growth these congregations found. The book is available from the UUA Bookstore at https://www.uuabookstore.org/Mistakes-and-Miracles-P18521.aspx THERE IS ONE COPY AVAILABLE NEXT TO THE SOCIAL JUSTICE LIBRARY ON THE BOOKCASE IN THE PARISH HALL
