Merriam Webster defines courage as mental or moral strength to venture, persevere, and withstand danger, fear, or difficulty. The root of the word comes from the Latin “cor” meaning heart. Courage is to me bravery that comes from the heart.
Our reading today is from Marisol Caballero who wrote “Courage requires Vulnerability”
“You were put on this Earth to achieve your greatest self, to live out your purpose and to do it courageously.” Dr. Steve Maraboli
“Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.” – Jesus – Matthew 17:20
We would love to have you come worship with us.
The story of the mustard seed has been shared many times. We have been programmed to be successful. Sometimes we wonder what success truly means. This Sunday, Cricket will explore all of these ideas in her lesson, “What if we are the mustard seed?”
Our services are Sundays at 11 a.m. at the Progressive Women’s Association Event Center, 305 Washington Ave. in downtown Clarksburg, behind the Courthouse. There are classes for children and adults 10 to 10:45 am, and a coffee gathering before the service. More about us.
Classes and worship are replaced by Spiritual Outings on the first Sunday of each month during the summer, with brief worship, a potluck picnic, and outdoor activities. The schedule is in the sidebar.
Children are welcome. There is childcare and an activity for young children during the service.
The building is wheelchair accessible, with an accessible restroom.
The schedule for the current adult religious education class is here.

#UULent
2016 hasn’t been perfect, but we have had a good year.
We have celebrated historical figures from UU history. We even had special guest Carol Sroczynski who interviewed Mother Jones, played by Patience Deweese. Special thanks to them and the members (Shelia and Jim Rye) of the Morgantown West Virginia Unitarian Universalist Fellowship who provided our music for that day. 
Take Courage
by Wayne B. Arnaz on
Take courage friends.
The way is often hard, the path is never clear,
and the stakes are very high.
Take courage.
For deep down, there is another truth:
you are not alone.
Hope you all have a blessed day.
Namaste,
Cricket
