At All Souls Unitarian Universalist Church in Greenfield, Massachusetts, our mission is to welcome and reach out to all who seek fellowship in our liberal religious tradition; to nurture the spiritual well-being of our children and ourselves; to show that people can transcend differences; to nourish and enrich each other in a common spiritual quest; and to provide information and opportunities for members of All Souls and others to act upon the issues of injustice and inequity.

Spiritual Architecture
Worship Leader: Dan Tinen Music: Bob Cummings
All over the world, religious groups build things: temples, mosques,synagogues, churches, fellowship halls. What does this material expression of the spiritual impulse mean? Why do humans build such structures?
On a more local level, what role does our Victorian-era church at the corner of Hope and Main fulfill in our community...not just for Unitarian-Universalists, but for the people of Greenfield? Are we making the best possible use of our spiritual architecture? What might we do better in the future? The goal this morning to prompt deeper reflection on how we use material means to achieve spiritual goals, and start discussions exploring the many possibilities open to us in the 21st century. |
