    Meet Our Office Manager – Kirsha McAllister

    Have you been wondering how things are getting done at the UUFP during the pandemic? It’s true that we are asking our members not to come in person to the Fellowship unless it’s absolutely necessary. Nevertheless, the Rev. Andrew and DRE Joanne Dingus are working hard to make sure we

    My 2020 Virtual General Assembly Experience

    The event that was most meaningful to me at this 2020 UUA Virtual General Assembly (GA) was the remarks by the outgoing moderators, Elandria Williams and Rev. Barb Greve, in the last business session. I have known Elandria for over 20 years and enjoyed her active participation. In District meetings,

    Widening the Circle: The Commission on Institutional Change

    Before this year, I had never heard of Dr. Brené  Brown, who has apparently enjoyed TED talk and author fame for a decade or two. Before this year, I had never heard of Dr. Ibram Kendi, now famous author of a number of books about anti-racism.   In the last

    General Assembly Reflections: Michael Henry-Richardson

    General Assembly 2020 was a most unusual experience, just as are many of our individual and joint experiences this year. It felt odd for the largest assembly of Unitarian Universalists this year not to be gathered in person. Although we knew everyone was participating from their individual homes, offices or

    Member Testimonial – “UUFP: A Mixed Metaphor of the Real”

    When our minister asks us to do these testimonials, he sends out a set of guidelines that says, basically, stick to how UUFP has transformed you. As many of you know, I tend to gravitate to what’s abstract and underlying rather than what’s concrete and easy to see.  So of

    “Shifting to a Culture of Covenant”

    Dear UUFP, Greetings from the Committee on Ministry! Part of each year’s General Assembly is the President’s Report.  I will quote for you here a paragraph from the Reverend Susan Frederick-Grey’s President’s Report at last month’s General Assembly: ... in the midst of significant uncertainty and conflicting informing and misinformation,

The site has been designed to be engaging to newcomers as well as providing useful information to the UUFP community. We encourage you to use/review the

    October 2019 RE News – “The Garden Grows the Community”

    On Sunday, February 10, I gave a sermon called: “The Garden Grows the Community.” The idea of creating a community garden was introduced in part as a response to what I saw happening in the Children’s Religious Education (RE) Program and in part as a way to live our mission:
