This Little Light of Mine

 Judy Cline, San Juan UU Fellowship

 Worship Leader, Cheri Kelly

This memo to the people of the flaming chalice provides a history of the chalice and what it means to our religious tradition.

After retiring from the Foreign Service in 1992, Judy Cline returned to her home state of New Mexico.  Fortunately she found the Unitarian Fellowship in Farmington about 15 years ago, where she has served as board president twice, attended the Russell Lockwood Leadership School, served as a cluster rep for the MDD, as district rep for the MDD for several years, and currently as local program committee chair.

Annual Water Communion

Ceci McQuinn

Worship Leader, Mary Ocken

Returning from the summer vacation our community will share waters from our various travels and experiences in this ritual of reunion. Each member or friend is invited to offer water significant to her or his wanderings during the past three months, contributing to the common vessel of our togetherness. Ceci McQuinn is a long time active member and former officer of the Fellowship.

Start with the Ending

Rev. Zakir Lawrence Henson, Grand Junction

Worship Leader, Terri Reherman

The sermon explores simplicity and vision in the form of benediction. Though used to close a service, the benediction is also a blessing, a vision, if you will, for the congregation. In past lives Rev. Henson has been a social worker, a carpenter, a contractor, and is now a UU minister serving the Congregation of the Grand Valley. Zakir has served churches in Montana, Utah, Colorado, & Oklahoma. His theology is founded in our relationship to one another and the sacred around us much like process theology. His ministry focuses on inner & outer human transformation.  He has been involved with Sufism since 1985 and has studied with Murshida Vera Corda, Qahira Qalbi, Pir Vilayat Inayat Khan, and Mershida Tasnim Fernandez.

Building the Connection Between Justice-Making & Spirituality

Jennifer Forker, Iliff Seminary, Denver

Worship Leader, Katherine Burgess

How can we, as UUs, instill a sense of the sacred into our social justice efforts? We can guess it begins in the heart, but how do we access this heart space to instill our important work with deeper meaning and greater rewards? Jennifer Forker begins her third year studying at the Iliff School of Theology this fall. She is married to Jim Clarke, a journalist with The Associated Press, and they have two daughters, Hope, 12, and Grace, 11.  Jennifer is a freelance features reporter for the AP. Her hobbies include gardening, running & a new one: cycling.
