February 26, 2012: Reflections on Lay Chaplaincy

Over the years, many members of our congregation have served as Lay Chaplains – people specifically selected and trained to perform rites of passage for non-members and others who are not necessarily Unitarian Universalists. Lay Chaplains are approved and registered by the Canadian Unitarian Council, and are licensed by the province. This morning we reflect on this long-standing program through which committed individuals create meaningful rituals that mark important life passages.

Service Coordinator: Janet Toews

UUism is Born

Much more evangelical than Unitarianism, which had a pronounced intellectual and urban ethos, Universalism spread across rural and small-town North America during the 19th and 20th centuries. Through their common emphasis on social action (such as the anti-slavery movement and the later suffragette and birth-control debates) and their evolving theologies of respect for the revelations of secular science, Unitarianism and Universalism drifted closer together, until their eventual official merger in 1961.
