Meet Your Settled Minister!
Even though the search for UUFH’s new settled minister is several months away, it’s not too early to start thinking about what qualities and strengths we seek in that person…and the work we need to do from our end.
The Rev. Don Rollins is UUFH’s Interim Minister.
Even though the search for UUFH’s new settled minister is several months away, it’s not too early to start thinking about what qualities and strengths we seek in that person…and the work we need to do from our end.
The Social Justice Team and Don will lead us in a look at a new social justice model for UUFH, and the four broad issues for your consideration. We’ll follow the service with a Q&A session at noon.
Written by the late UU minister, Alec Craig, Don will share an adapted chronology of life through the eyes of gratitude.
Also known as “Hymn Sunday,” Katherine and Don will lead us in singing selected hymns (Katherine) and songs (Don), as well as snippets of hymns folks may suggest. We’ll hear the history of some of the selections, and share a meditation with music as a metaphor in hard times.

Don will lead us in a look at the spiritual and practical sides of interim ministry. (A Q/A session on interim ministry will follow at noon, in the sanctuary. All are invited.)
Come join in a multi-generational Ingathering, including the Water Communion. (Some folks may have gathered water from their travels, but water from the fellowship will be on hand to pour into a common bowl.)
This is our new Interim Minister’s first service at UUFH. His reflection is inspired by the lives of 1960s working class, rank-and-file people.
