 This Sunday - Empathy: May the 4th Be with You
Is empathy harmful? Is it sinful? Could it be the greatest weakness of Western civilization? Or is it the emotional hook that pulls us together and gets us to see other people where they live? We will explore the latest hype against empathy and consider the dark consequences of villainizing this potential social emotion. See you all on Sunday! Get ready for engaging events and inspiring services ahead! We’re thrilled to experience them with you!  Welcome to Skylands UU! This Sunday - Join Us for our Earth Day Service!
Come learn about and celebrate our native plant gardens at SUUF! We'll talk about how our gardens fit into a larger picture of conservation, habitat connectivity and are a physical representation of our 7th UU principle: respect for the interdependent web of all existence. Then we'll talk more fine scale about the garden itself - how it came to be, what plants are in the beds, some fun observations to date, and plans going forward. After the service there will be a brief garden tour for those interested. There will be garden related activities for the kids during the service. Get ready for engaging events and inspiring services ahead! We’re thrilled to experience them with you!  This Sunday - Join Us for Our Easter Service Led by Christian Sloan

Who Do UUs Say That I Am?
Sunday March 2nd at 10am
With Speaker Maureen Bonner
Join us this Sunday for Who Do UUs Say That I Am?
When Jesus asked his disciples, "Who do you say that I am?" their answers varied, just as ours might today.
Unitarian Universalists (UUs) hold diverse perspectives on Jesus, seeing him as a prophet, reformer, dissident, or moral exemplar.
Who do YOU say he is?
We look forward to welcoming you this Sunday at 10am
