Formation Conversation: Love at the Center with UU Wellspring: Thursday May 22 at 6:00-7:30pm ET/5:00-6:30pm CT/4:30-6:00pm MT/3:30-5:00pm PT UU Wellspring is offering a special intensive version of Love at the Center this summer, designed specifically for seminarians, aspirants, and candidates for UU ministry. This 9-week program, held on Sunday evenings at 4 PM Pacific (7 PM Eastern) from July 6 through August 31, provides a deep exploration of Unitarian Universalist identity, theology, and spiritual practice. On May 22 we will preview this program with a session to introduce the UU Wellspring experience to MFN participants. The Ministerial Fellowship Committee (MFC) recommends Love at the Center as a valuable resource for understanding the changes to Article II of the UUA Bylaws, which redefine the core values and commitments of our faith. Rev. Dr. Jason Cook and members of the UU Wellspring team will guide a time of reflection, discussion and spiritual grounding.
