   Rev. Dr. Tom Owen-Towle
  Brings Keynote Address and
  Afternoon Conversation 

Rev. Tom Owen-Towle, revered Unitarian Universalist minister and author, calls the keynote address he will deliver on Saturday morning "THE PRIZE: Growing the Beloved Community."  He will also host "A Conversation With Rev. Tom Owen-Towle" during the assembly's afternoon sessions. 
 
Noting that in his retirement years he is "a guitar player, a budding magician, and a Little League coach," the reverend Tom Owen-Towle has previously authored over 20 books, several of which will be available for purchase at the Assembly's bookstore.  
  
Tom Owen-Towle and his life-partner, Carolyn, were co-ministers of First UU Church of San Diego for 24 years. They are the active parents of 4 children and grandparents of 6.  The Rev. Owen-Towle was ordained in 1967 and has served congregations in Germany, Iowa, Michigan and California, where he is currently an interim minister in North San Diego County. 
 
Rev. Owen-Towle will also bring the sermon at First UU Nashville's Sunday morning worship the day after the assembly.  Assembly attendees are cordially invited to stay over to attend. 

"Growing Beloved Community" has been Mid-South's theme for the 2008-09 church year.

"Rather than focus on the dumb and destructive things our parishes do, which are all too familiar, I've chosen to accentuate the positive, arouse the possibilities, and spur us on toward the very best we can become."
