ENGAGE Sunday- Principle Pursuits and the 8th Principle Project
The last 7(+) months we have spent 1st Sundays reviewing &
discussing our 7 Principles. To wrap-up our discussions we will
spend time brainstorming ideas on how Prairie Lakes can live our
Principles. As a brainstorming session, we will not limit ourselves
or focus on developing the plans, rather we will focus on specific
actions you envision, or how we need to live differently. (Non-specific examples from
previous discussions: Support current & formerly incarcerated people, support local
LGBTQ organizations, reduce mowed lawn area on Green Space, etc.)
The second half of the hour will be devoted to introducing the proposed 8th Principle:
“We, the member congregations of the Unitarian Universalist Association, covenant to
affirm and promote: Journeying toward spiritual wholeness by working to build a
diverse and multicultural Beloved Community by our actions that accountability
dismantle racism and other oppressions in ourselves and our institutions.”
