What’s Your Best Life Now?

Posted on January 16, 2018 | 1 comment

“As we try to navigate these uncertain times, endeavoring to live out our authentic and beloved lives, we are always left asking, what’s our best life? How do we find encouragement so that we do not forget our innocence that’s so connected to our Unitarian Universalist democratic values that make us whole?“

*Join us!*
Samuel Prince will be speaking on “What’s Your Best Life Now.”
Sunday, Feb. 11, 2018. 3:00 pm, UUFF. Boardman Room of the First Congregational UCC at 431 Columbus Ave, Sandusky, Ohio. Enter rear glass doors and take elevator up. All are welcome!

Samuel Prince, a former Anglican clergy, is now an active member of the UU Fellowship in Oberlin where he has served as board president. His particular passions are working for Adult Religious Education and Anti-Racism. One of his joys was helping to organize the first gathering of People of Color in the Ohio-Meadville District when Allies for Racial Equity held their gathering in Cleveland in 2014.

He lives in Sandusky and works in the IT industry.

Dear Fellowship Members–

The memorial service for Fellowship member Jim Marshal will take place 2:00 PM SUNDAY, JANUARY 14, at Kendal in Oberlin–the same day as our regular service.  To free folks who are interested in attending the service for Jim, we have decided to cancel our service that day in Sandusky.  We hope to reschedule our speaker Julie Didelot for later in the spring.
