An all-church workshop with Antonia Won

Sunday, November 6, 2011, 12:30 – 2:00
Lunch provided at 12:00, Childcare provided during workshop (No charge for either)

You are invited to a two hour workshop on Sunday, November 6th sponsored by the Shared Ministry Team immediately following church to share your views on what behaviours you would like expressed in our congregational Covenant of Right Relations.

Join Antonia Won, CUC Congregational Services Programmer, and the Shared Ministry Team for an important workshop in the life of our church. Together, we will explore what it looks like when we are in "right relations" with each other – what we do when we remember to be our best selves, even when we meet challenges living in community with each other. Because our covenant will be written in language everyone can understand, the first part of the workshop will be structured so that children and youth can contribute.

The SMT will compile the ideas generated at the workshop into a draft covenant of right relations. It will be presented to the congregation in the spring, revised based on experience and brought to the congregation for approval in the spring of 2013.

A Brief History of Universalism

The doctrine of universalism has appeared occasionally in Christian theology since the early church. Origen of Alexandria (c.185-c.254) and Gregory of Nyssa (c.335 – after 394) are among its more famous exponents, although both spoke more in terms of hope and possibility than assured doctrine. In 1793, Universalism became a separate Christian denomination in the United States, which was eventually called the Universalist Church of America (UCA).

“I have an almost complete disregard of precedent, and a faith in the possibility of something better. It irritates me to be told how things have always been done. I defy the tyranny of precedent. I go for anything new that might improve the past.”

~ Clara Barton (born December 25, 1821)
