July 21, at 10:00 am, 3845 North Swan Street – "Love, Not Legalism"
Rev. Bob LaVallee of the First Unitarian Church of Albuquerque will talk about the history and context of covenants.
"We are a covenantal faith but what does that even mean? The typical Unitarian Universalist church has a covenant that has great aspirations but very little on specifics. How do we know when we're out of covenant? How do we return to covenant?" LaVallee said.
Rev. Bob LaVallee serves as Associate Minister at First Unitarian Church of Albuquerque. Prior to parish ministry, he worked as a chaplain in ER, ICU, and hospice settings, including at the VA Hospital in New York City. In these bewildering times, Rev. LaVallee believes that our congregations can be a source of refuge and resilience, especially for the most vulnerable among us.
Childcare is available every Sunday. Zoey Cronin will lead a formal children's program on second and fourth Sundays.
Children are welcome to participate on any Sunday, but they will get the most out of the program if they attend second and fourth Sundays somewhat regularly. Family adults may stay for the children's program or attend the adult program. Children are encouraged to bring a small item that represents someone or something they are grateful for that week.
There are speakers on the patio if you wish to enjoy the service outside.
UUFSC Safety Protocol as pursuant to our most recent UUA Guidelines:
