UUCE NEWSLETTER
If you cannot access the Newsletter PDFs, the *print* Newsletter is published in the last week of each month, and you can view the Weekly UUpDate, which though different, will keep you up-to-date until we can discover how your computer system needs to receive it.Local UUCE email listservs are below
Our Newsletter editor is Susan Verner. She has taken on a huge task with vision and humor. Take a look at her Newsletter Submission Guidelines.
Compared to the print version, we have left personal information out of the web newsletter. It is also deliberately missing the following:
|
• the Joys and Concerns section
• all personal street addresses • some phone numbers • birthdays and anniversaries Newsletters (in living color)

"When the kings had died, a pauper, barefooted and hungry, came and sat on the throne. "God," he whispered, "the eyes of man cannot bear to look directly at the sun, for they are blinded. How then, Omnipotent, can they look directly at you? Have pity, Lord; temper your strength, turn down your splendor so that I, who am poor and afflicted, may see you!" Then--listen, old man!--God became a piece of bread, a cup of cool water, a warm tunic, a hut, and, in front of the hut, a woman giving suck to an infant. "Thank you, Lord," he whispered. "You humbled yourself for my sake. You became bread, water, a warm tunic, my wife and son in order that I may see you. And I did see you. I bow down and worship your beloved many-faced face!" - - - - - - Nikos Kazantzakis, The Last Temptation of Christ |
