Hello to all of our family and friends,
This week Our guest leader will present a sermon titled “The Inner Light and the Society of Friends”.
The concept of a divinely-inspired “Larger Self” first came to us from ancient Hinduism and most recently from many New Age teachings. However, we need look no further than the Society of Friends (Quakers) for a similar but unique teaching of the “Inner Light.” Perhaps this 17th century teaching has something useful and modern to consider for our Unitarian Universalist path.
Bio. of Rev. Ann C. Fox Minister Emerita, Unitarian Memorial Church, Fairhaven, MA. After careers in teaching secondary English, motherhood, and technical writing in software research and development, the Reverend Ann Fox made a midlife career change and earned a Master of Divinity from Boston University School of Theology. She was the interim minister in Kingston, Ontario, Canada for two years before being called to Unitarian Memorial Church in Fairhaven in 2001, from which she retired in 2014. She now assists with pastoral care at that church. In her retirement, she enjoys reading, gardening and walking with her spouse and spending time with her grandchildren (on Zoom these days.)
