There’s a tour organizing to the de Benneville homestead, near Reading, Pennsylvania. It is the earliest known site for universalist worship in America.
I want to go! Link to follow later.
Update: Here’s the link. (link) Be sure to sign up by March 1 for this March 14 event. They need at least 27 registrants.

Tour to de Benneville homestead
Eddy it is
I think the little bovine – there are pictures to be shared when I get back to Washington – will be called Eddy. Good idea, S. [revsparker]
Philo: we do not sacrifice the small cattle. We take them to Sunday School, and when they get old enough, we can start canvassing them.

Eliot(s) and friend
In Providence – preached (as they said in the nineteenth century) to “a small but attentive congregation” in the lovely First Universalist Church. (Took pictures.) Yesterday, visited with the Eliot Church of South Natick, and its minister (that is, my minister) and friend and his family.
Somehow another small bovine got in my luggage. But [...]
Travelling tonight
My friends know I’m notoriously tight when it comes to needless spending, and I’m unusually proud to get a bargain. My bus extravaganza should cost about $74, and I’m taking advantage of my screwed-up sleep schedule to travel at night. I should be in New York about dawn, and in Boston before lunch. While preaching [...]
Link me, please
I’m finding the traffic a little soft here, and my Google ranking low. I’d appreciate a link (from whatever site or blog you have) both for this blog and New Church Mission. (If I had to choose one, make it the latter.)
Thanks -

I want my U-TV!
I have never before wanted to live in Wisconsin:
Chippewa Valley Fellowship
Chippewa Valley Fellowship is a Television Program that takes another look at the scriptures to examine modern church doctrines. The purpose of the program is to expose the viewer to interpretations of scriptures that are contrary to the doctrines of eternal torment and annihilation. [...]
Happy 201 Demosthenian
I’m rather bummed that I’ll miss the All Night Meeting: the anniversary meeting and alumni homecoming of that odd-and-wonderful institution, Demosthenian Literary Society. Yes, I’ll refer to it as “that debating society in college” but it is much, much more. At the very least, it is the South’s oldest student organization. But that’s not why [...]
Chinatown, Chinatown, Providence
I’ll try to make at least one blog entry per blog per day over the next week, but I am going to be out of town. Preaching at First Universalist Church, Providence on Sunday, and visiting friends. I hope to visit the church I joined (yes, I know how that sounds): The Eliot Church, South [...]
Anabaptist blog to watch, read
I’ve noticed that any jones I had for magazines gets boiled away by the better blogs. Today, I found a few, and noticed that the Anabaptist ones are a pretty good pick. Then again, an Anabaptist with a blog is more likely to have the kind of spirituality I have. More or less.
The one [...]
New harmonized look; more content
I’ve been giving the whole UniversalistChurch.net site a bit of a scrub. It is a long way from done, but when it is done it should have the technical backbone and content to see it through a good long time.
Don’t neglect my spin-off blog New Church Mission, either.
In the meantime, are the documents or kinds [...]
