“In Good Conscience”
Sarah Manning
If health care in the US were based on an ethic of
inclusion, what would it look like? In Good Conscience
is a blueprint for changing the conversation on the
philosophy underlying the historical and profit based
delivery of health care in our time.

“The Life of Mary Margaret Bloom”
Reverend Barry Bloom
What is a mother, a “good” mother? I’ll try to answer
that question at our annual Mother's Day service through
the story of my own mother’s life. Mother died last
August at age 98. She was, as I said in my
congregational letter, “an unremarkable, remarkable
woman.” From her life, we will also draw some insight as
to what it means to be a loyal, loving, compassionate,
religious human being.

Affirmation Sunday--Celebrating our
Children, Teachers and Parents
Our Children's RE program completes this academic year
with a service of celebration: a Family Worship Service
to affirm what we have learned this year, honor those
who made it happen and inspire all who come. This 45
minute service will be followed by lunch and our
spring Congregational Meeting.

“UU Principles for Young People.”
Reverend Barry Bloom
Our principles seem a bit remote and heady even for
adults. What do they seem like to young people, those
that we most want to stay and become life long Unitarian
Universalists? Well, shall we say, less than compelling,
until they are interpreted and translated into their
world in a meaningful way. That is the purpose of the
service. The bridging ceremony for our 8th graders shall
begin the service..
