May 26 - Many Reasons to Honor Memorial Day

  • Kitsap Unitarian Universal Fellowship 4418 Perry Avenue Northeast Bremerton, WA, 98310 United States (map)

This year’s overarching frame is The Gifts of Our Faith. We’re focusing on ten beloved UU values and exploring their potential to shape us and, in turn, shape the world. So far we have looked at the gifts of welcome, heritage, generosity, mystery, liberating love, justice and equity, transformation, and interdependence. This month we are exploring The Gift of Pluralism

The wording that is used in our UUA’s Article II proposal: Pluralism: We celebrate that we are all sacred beings, diverse in culture, experience, and theology. We covenant to learn from one another in our free and responsible search for truth and meaning. We embrace our differences and commonalities with Love, curiosity, and respect.”

May 26 - Many Reasons to Honor Memorial Day
In this session, we acknowledge that Memorial Day is about war and that, while there are many different views on war, we can all agree that honoring those who are no longer with us is a beautiful thing. It’s a way of honoring that we can take a pluralistic view of Memorial Day and affirm many different and valid ways to approach it.
