I call that mind free, which sets no bounds to its love, which is not imprisoned in itself or in a sect, which recognises in all human beings the image of God and the rights of his children, which delights in virtue and sympathises with suffering wherever they are seen, which conquers pride, anger, and sloth, and offers itself up a willing victim to the cause of mankind.

— William Ellery Channing, “Spiritual Freedom: Discourse Preached at the Annual Election, Boston, May 26, 1830”.

This Sunday we will continue our religious education program with Exploring, volume 2 of Building Your Own Theology. In session ten we will discuss A Spiritual Check-Up: Where Do We Go from Here? The course description and schedule are here.

We will open with a very brief service and chalice lighting, after which members will guide each other through the course of study and discussions.

Please note that you are welcome to participate whether or not you have been keeping up to date on the sessions. We are using the course plan as a guide for discussion, not as a formula to arrive at any specific educational goal — we are, after all, working on *our own theologies*, not learning anyone’s official doctrine. All are welcome to participate. The reading for session ten is here.

** NOTE: ZOOM will not be available this Sunday. **

Please Join us for Worship.

Our services are Sundays at 10:30 a.m. Eastern Time on ZOOM and in person at the Progressive Women’s Association Event Center, 305 Washington Ave. in downtown Clarksburg, behind the Courthouse.

Children are welcome. The building is wheelchair accessible, with an accessible restroom. You may park in the lot on the west side of the building; DO NOT PARK in the Washington Avenue pay lot. Please enter through the door on the west side of the building.
