Get a cup of coffee from downstairs and join us in the Sanctuary for this café-style worship service! We’re kicking off the new year with a conversation about the earth, climate change, and eco-justice and we want your input. Using the “World Café” method of brainstorming and gathering information, we’ll gauge what our passion might be to bring these eco-justice issues to our UUFH faith community in an intentional way for further education and future action.
Children aged 12 and older are invited to stay upstairs in the Sanctuary to participate. Nut-free snacks are encouraged! Childcare and regular Family Ministry programming will take place downstairs in the Nursery and classrooms.
Rev Terry is the part-time minister of UU Fellowship of Hendersonville.
She found Unitarian Universalism and her spiritual home at the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Atlanta, where she was a 20-year member. In her ministry, she has served as the neo-natal intensive care unit chaplain at Emory University Midtown Hospital in Atlanta; as the pastoral care minister at Eliot Chapel, a 600-member Unitarian Universalist congregation in St. Louis, Missouri; and as the solo minister at Northwest Unitarian Universalist Congregation, a 250-member faith community in suburban Atlanta.
Terry and her spouse Gail Hyde moved to Asheville in 2019 after Gail’s retirement as CIO of Habitat for Humanity International. During the early years of the pandemic, Terry completed an intensive two-year spiritual director certification program with the Haden Institute, an international and ecumenical program grounded in Jungian psycho-spiritual teachings.
She has a private spiritual direction and short-term counseling practice in Asheville.
And, for fun and as food for her soul, on Saturdays, Rev. Davis serves as a “Craggy Rover” (volunteer park ranger) on a 5,892-foot peak high above the Blue Ridge Parkway for the National Park Service.
