Join us in celebration of New Member Weekend and the Stewardship Kick-Off.
Summary:
In this sermon, Reverend Alice King explores the deeper motivations behind charitable giving and the significance of supporting Unitarian Universalist congregations. She reflects on her own experiences with public radio donations to argue that financial pledges should transcend consumerist transactions or the desire for physical rewards. Instead, she characterizes financial support as a vital investment in a community of truth that serves the greater good and advocates for social justice. By highlighting various congregational activities, from book donation drives to social activism, she illustrates how individual contributions sustain a shared spiritual home. Ultimately, King calls for a deep commitment to ensuring the church remains a beacon of hope and progressive values for both current members and future seekers.
