Sunday Worship Service 
| |
May 20, 10:30 am: "That Old Time Religion"
Rev. Chip Wright with Worship Associate Karen Auroy
I love the old songs of my childhood. Many of these were old gospels and spirituals my grandfather and grandmothers loved. I still remember sitting around the living rooms singing them. Come join in a 'liberal praise' as we remember and sing together.

 Bettie Ott, a long time member of UUCM (May 1954) and the primary designer of our beautiful grounds, passed away peacefully at home in San Rafael on Saturday, May 5. Bettie's obituary reveals many interesting things about this amazing lady.
In an effort to assist Bettie's family with planning this Friday's 3:00 service and reception, please let Janette know (415-479-4131/office@uumarin.org) by Thursday afternoon if you will be attending.

Registration Open for 2012 UU Living Legacy Civil Rights Pilgrimage
| | |
The next UU Living Legacy Civil Rights Pilgrimage is scheduled for October 6-13, 2012, and registration is now open. This unique bus trip is much more than a Civil Rights history tour through Alabama and Mississippi. We will be visiting historic sites and meeting veterans of the Civil Rights Movement, and will also be spending time together and with guests exploring what racism, white privilege, and barriers to equality look like today in the Southern towns we visit---and in our own hometowns.
For more information and to register, please visit www.uulivinglegacy.org.
