ONE PRINCIPLE TO RULE THEM ALL

We’ll recap our survey of the Seven Principles by examining the essential thread that runs through them all, but which, incredibly, is not mentioned by name at all. In song it has been called a boomerang, a losing game, a battlefield, a drug, the tender trap, the reason, the message, the way, the answer, and all you need. It is like oxygen, like a fire, like a red, red, rose, and like… WO! All true. And it is the heart of our religion.

The interdependent web is one way to describe our inherent interconnectedness. There are many other ways. In this service, we are going to look at interconnectedness as if it were a river; all of us as drops who enter the stream from different locations and yet are flowing together on a journey seeking a common destination. Gravity guides the river. What guides us?

The goal of world community, with peace, liberty, and justice for all may seem like an impossible dream right now, and we may think we are naïve to even dream it. But are we, really? What does UU theology have to say about this, and how can our theology support our action?

Rev. Dr. Leisa Huyck is a former ecologist, who became a minister because she is called to help our culture make the spiritual transformation we need in order to live on our beautiful planet sustainably, with love and justice for all. She is the founder of Viriditas Ministries, whose mission is “healing the heart, nourishing the spirit, and greening the world–with the power of love.” You can find her online at viriditasministries.org.

The Lime Foundation devotes its energy to passionately advocating for the disadvantaged.  Their mission is to strengthen veterans, seniors, low income families and young people and give them the tools to build a better quality of life.  What they do:  (1) support a vocational training/construction apprenticeship program and provide free construction services to low-income families and the elderly.  This creates a double benefit for the community  – helps prepare people in disadvantaged communities for fulfilling careers while at the same time providing important services to people who could not otherwise afford them.   (2) run programs for the elderly in an effort to address America’s obesity epidemic through light exercise (dance, bowling, hiking) and healthy eating.  (3) bring positive, structured activities to disadvantaged youth, giving them the opportunity to learn technology  or play a musical instrument – great alternatives to substance abuse, truancy, exclusion.  Uses music and dance as a positive means of expression.  Features am activity center and a summer and after school mentoring and tutoring program.

Come and hear the Executive Director and founder of the Lime Foundation, Letitia Hanke, as she describes in detail the services this Foundation offers.
