This Coming Sunday

March 21, 2010


Celebration of Life - 11am
"Was It the Addams Family?,"
The Reverend Brian Covell, preaching



TUC'ers know Jane Addams (1860-1935) as "icon" memorialized in one of our Sanctuary murals, and a towering figure in Chicago history.  Did you know that she was a lead member in an intellectual movement at the University of Chicago that gave rise to Religious Humanism?  You're invited to learn about what might be an overlooked part of the life of this public intellectual.  Two more good reasons to be with us this Sunday: a music program focused on female composers performed by an all-women's string quartet, and--we'll have yet another new member ceremony!

10am Forum
"The St. Francis of Assissi House of Hospitality,"
Alex Iwasa and Lucky Marlovitz, speaking



TUC Member Alex Iwasa and colleague Lucky Marlovitz will speak on the history and current work of St Francis of Assisi House of Hospitality in Chicago, a Catholic Workers' House, where both live. The Catholic Worker Movement is grounded in a firm belief in the God-given dignity of every human person. Today over 185 Catholic Worker communities remain committed to nonviolence, voluntary poverty, prayer, and hospitality for the homeless, exiled, hungry, and forsaken. Catholic Workers continue to protest injustice, war, racism, and violence of all forms. What can TUC learn from the work of this religious social justice community? Sue Lodgen will facilitate.

UU Quotes

I am convinced that what is life-denying, what is repressive and false, will be known as such, and people, who are basically good, will follow a new way. Let us be some of those who step out and lead the way, who dare to be the Light that blesses the world, that all the earth may be fair, and all her people one." ~MARILYN SEWELL
