So we start out on a new adventure, a BLOGGING adventure. I’m excited to see where it takes us. My name is Autumn Nordstrom and I am the Member Services Coordinator for the Unitarian Universalist Church of Fargo Moorhead or FMUU for short. I am in charge of membership, marketing and outreach for our little community.
Unitarian Universalism is a liberal religion that supports the “free and responsible search for truth and meaning.” We grow together spiritually as our religion does not have a common creed. The glue holding us together is our commitment to the seven principles:
- The inherent worth and dignity of every person;
- Justice, equity and compassion in human relations;
- Acceptance of one another and encouragement to spiritual growth in our congregations;
- A free and responsible search for truth and meaning;
- The right of conscience and the use of the democratic process within our congregations and in society at large;
- The goal of world community with peace, liberty, and justice for all;
- Respect for the interdependent web of all existence of which we are a part.
The purposes of this blog is for different members of our community to write about their experiences and how it relates back to our seven principles. Pull up a chair and grab a cup of coffee, you are welcome here …
