This Sunday's Worship Service       May 20, 2012  10:00 am

Discovering America, Once Again — Rev. Clyde Grubbs

In the fifteenth century Christian Europe asserted the right to conquer and subjugate the non-Christian peoples of Africa and the Americas.  Genocide and slavery left their scars on our nation's soul. Unitarian Universalists are preparing for Justice General Assembly in Phoenix, AZ.  What can we do to rediscover our Land, and build a nation of peace and justice?  Our guest minister today is the Reverend Clyde Grubbs who has served congregations in Indiana, Quebec, Massachusetts, Texas, Florida and California.  He is presently serving as Minister at Large of the Tuckerman Creative Ministries for Justice and Healing.  In addition, he has been a member of the Diverse Revolutionary Unitarian Universalist Multicultural Ministries (DRUMM) for eleven years and is a DRUMM co-president.  Clyde has served on the UUMA executive committee as its portfolio holder for Anti-racism, Anti-oppression and Multiculturalism.  He presently serves our Association as an at-large member of the UUA Board of Trustees.  Clyde honors his Native American heritage (Texas Cherokee) which informs his spiritual understanding and practice, and his anti-racist and anti-oppressive commitment.  He has worked for peace, justice and equality since he was in the Unitarian Universalist youth movement, Liberal Religious Youth. Worship begins at 10:00 a.m. and childcare is available.

First Parish of Sudbury is a Unitarian Universalist congregation located at 327 Concord Road. The Meetinghouse is accessible to wheelchair users and those who are hearing impaired. We embrace diversity and are intentional about the participation of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender persons in all aspects of congregational life. We welcome all who wish to explore their own spiritual journeys in the company of others and any who are seeking a liberal religious community of faith.
