June 10, 2022: UUMAN's Board of Trustees uses Covid Act Now to monitor current Covid risk levels. As the Atlanta Metro area and all but one of our members' counties are yellow, or medium risk, we request that people wear masks indoors and practice social distancing (no hugging/kissing). We are happy to say that UUMAN's community is highly vaccinated and boosted--thank you for continuing to do your part to keep us all safe!
Jennifer Ratcliffe, Carla Kapeskas, and Randy Blasch will deliver their report from General Assembly.
We will also be introduced to our new Director of Religious Exploration, Lexie Tagney, making this a very special Sunday.
Does UUMAN matter? Does UUMAN create ripples in the pond of your life? Ripples in the pond of our community? In the world? Is this anything one can measure?

The amazing video we saw on Earth Day from Joanna Macy and ideas she presented were taken from a book she co-authored with Chris Johnstone called “Active Hope”.
