Do
you seek a sanctuary? Acceptance? A place to call home? Connections
deep enough to feel like family? An avenue to build a more just and
equitable world? A place where your children will know the counsel of
other caring adults, and meet other kids who share their values? A
place to stay intellectually vibrant in your retirement years? A way to
let your mind and your heart work together? If you do, then we hope you
will come and explore the caring and richness of the Mt. Diablo
Unitarian Universalist Church
We
are excited to be beginning our first year as the co-ministers of this
dynamic church. We were drawn to its rich legacy of involved and
engaged members, its advocacy in the areas of peace and justice, its
vibrant and committed leaders, and its deep sense of place. If this
intrigues you, we hope you will visit and allow yourself to discover if
this remarkable community calls to you as well.
In a world
too marked by busy-ness, this is a place where you can rest your heart.
In a nation where religious rhetoric too often seems exclusionary, this
is a place where humanity and the power of the mind and heart are
honored. In a time when superficiality and uniformity seem to dominate
too much of our lives, here is a place where authenticity and
uniqueness are cherished, where individuals come to freely join
together in a sense of common purpose. In an age when too many despair
of ever being able to make a difference, this is a place where we still
believe in the power of a small group of people to create the change
that we need in the world.
Here
we are informed by principles which give voice to what we hold in
common, rather than creeds which exclude those who will not call them
literal truth. Here we welcome all those in sympathy with our purposes,
regardless of their age, racial or cultural background, income, the
religions of their origins, sexual orientation, or gender identity.
Here we stand with all families and all people, celebrating their
inherent worth and dignity. Surrounded by the awe-inspiring beauty of
the natural world, we affirm our interdependence and connection with
the web of life.
This
community is truly a creation of its members and friends. Come and help
us create its future--and yours. For truly, you are welcome.
David and Leslie Takahashi Morris, Co-ministers
