James Witker, preaching; Dr. Susan Hendricks, Worship Associate. A child of missionaries, Sophia Lyon Fahs' own spiritual odyssey would transform liberal religious education from rote study into an experience-centered search for truth and meaning. Her lifelong dedication to children’s learning, and to the quest for knowledge from all sources, helped usher an era of rapid and unprecedented growth that was dubbed “The Unitarian Renaissance.” Even today, we at UUSM remain part of the revolution of ideas that Sophia Lyon Fahs instigated — and she still has much to teach us. James Witker has been a member of UUSM since 2010, during which time has been involved especially with the Faith In Action Commission (FIA) and Adult Programs (RE). He has also served on the board of the Unitarian Universalist Humanist Association (UUHA), and works professionally as a documentary film and TV editor and producer whose work can be seen on Showtime, Netflix, Tennis Channel, and other networks. Join us for worship in-person and online.
