Reverend George Buchanan to speak to Unitarian Universalist Congregation

The Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Northern Chautauqua is pleased to announce that Consulting Minister Rev. George Buchanan will speak on Sunday, Feb. 24. Says Buchanan, “As UUs we believe in freedom of religious belief and freedom of conscience. Knowing this, how are we to educate and guide the children and youth among us?” Join us as we reflect on the answers to this question as we listen to Buchanan’s sermon, “Welcoming the (Young) Stranger.”

Immediately following the service, the congregation will hold a finger food potluck. Please bring something to share that does not need utensils to be served or eaten, and your own place settings. Had a busy morning rushing to church and forgot your table settings? Left the dish to pass in the fridge? No worries, we do have paper goods and there will be plenty of food. Join us!

The Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Northern Chautauqua is a liberal religious community devoted to promoting individual spiritual development, working toward peace, liberty and justice in our immediate and global communities, and providing companionship on life’s sacred journey. Our worship services are held each Sunday at 11 a.m. in the Grange Hall, 58 W. Main St. Fredonia.
