Rev. Virginia Jarocha-Ernst

This will be the third in a three-part sermon series on the topic of gender: "Ah...men", "Ah...women" and "Ah...you". The concept of gender identity is very basic to how we experience the world. It has long been assumed to be a fixed aspect of a person's life. New research tells us that male and female are points on a continuum. In this series, we will talk about and celebrate all that we know about gender. 

Music by “Free to Be You and Me,” Elaine Held, and Louise Chernosky

Rev. Dr. Terence Ellen, guest minister

The climate crisis is real. Its consequences, if not addressed with urgency and determination, will be devastating and enormous for all humans and species, especially the most vulnerable. We will be judged by future generations for how me meet it. As a people of free faith, what must we do in such a moment?

Music by Louise Chernosky and UU Singers.

Rev. Ellen has for 30 years served UU congregations in MA, NJ, and MD, and has been Exec. Dir. of UUs for Social Justice in the National Capital Region, organizing workshops and facilitating cooperation and sharing of best practices on issues like healthcare, immigration, LGBTQ, climate and environmental concerns, and the increasing wealth divide in this country with its corruption of the democratic process. He is currently engaged in interfaith efforts to demonstrate religious unanimity on the religious imperative to meet the climate crisis.

Rev. Craig Hirshberg, guest minister

The UU Legislative Ministry of NJ puts our UU values into action, mobilizes congregations for action and speaks for those who so seldom have a voice. At a time when democracy is being challenged, UULMNJ insures that our actions reflect our heart felt values as well as issues. Come hear about UULMNJ in 2012. She will also be leading our Dialog this morning at 9:00am (See "Upcoming Dialogs").

Music by Jan Dash.

Rev. Craig Hirshberg is UULMNJ’s current Executive Director.
