Midlands Unitarian picturebook on Google Books

Wednesday, June 13th, 2007

English Unitarians — especially those from Birmingham — might like to see this quaint yet informative picture memento of Unitarian and kindred churches in the West East Midlands, prepared for the Joseph Priestley death centennial in 1904.

You may download it at Google Books.

Unitarian, Universalist, Free Christian blogs elsewhere?

Monday, June 4th, 2007

I was wondering if there any Unitarian, Universalist, Free Christian or kindred bloggers in Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Ireland (Republic or Northern Ireland) or Scotland at all.

Or any hitherto unmentioned English language bloggers in any country where English is not a predominant language?

Swedish Unitarians reviewed

Sunday, June 3rd, 2007

Thanks to the Rev. Knut Heidelberg (The Unitarian) for writing about the Unitarian church in Sweden; download the PDF fact sheet by following the link and fixing the end to read “.pdf” –

I don’t know what’s more remarkable about this church, officially the

that their liturgy is the Church of Sweden’s high [...]

Blogger: Rich Daley

Sunday, June 3rd, 2007

I think I ran across Rich Daley’s blog once before but read it again tonight since he commented and linked at Stephen Lingwood’s blog, Reignite. (The post about the British Unitarian denominational website.)

He seems, hmm, familiar. I’m taller, with darker eyes and the ability to drink milk comfortably. But Ubuntu Linux, GNU project, Firefox, Xfce, […]

Northern New England districts to consolidate

Thursday, May 31st, 2007

With the departure of the Canadian congregations to make the Canadian Unitarian Council (CUC) autonomous, I think UUA watchers suspected it was just a matter of time before some of the northerly US districts started merging.

Problems, resources at unitarian.org.uk

Wednesday, May 9th, 2007

I have a posting in the works where I ream UUA.org like a lemon for its anti-intuitive navigation and vanishing resources. But I remembered that the UK Unitarian and Free Christians were getting a new website so thought I would review it first. Lead with something positive and all that. Thought it was a sure thing: […]

Can blogs keep some affiliates in business?

Monday, May 7th, 2007

Friend and fellow blogger (Philocrites) — and UUWorld executive editor — Chris Walton scooped me in the comments of a recent post where I wondered aloud if blogs could be replacing the special purpose “independent affiliate” organizations.

At their recent meeting, the Unitarian Universalist Association Board of Trustees only approved two of seventeen independent affiliate applications […]

Brahmo site

Friday, April 27th, 2007

Root and Source points to a new (newer than what I knew) Brahmo Samaj website. The Brahmo Samaj is the analog in Hinduism to classic Unitarianism for Christianity. (Thus the categorization.)

Interesting people and I’m glad to see they have an expanded web presence.

UK Unitarian and Free Christians meet

Friday, April 13th, 2007

April 13. Stephen Lingwood has expanded coverage to the first two days and added photographs.

I was going to blog about church convention exhibiting tips on Easter Monday — don’t worry; it’s coming — because a couple hundred years ago the English General Baptists — later absorbed by the Unitarians — would have had their annual […]

Unitarians in Africa

Thursday, March 29th, 2007

Unitarians exist in a number of African nations — there are no Universalists, denominationally-speaking, in Africa — and the Rev. Dan Harper has written twice in recent days about Unitarians in Nigeria, Kenya and Burundi.  Interesting and encouraging news.

I wanted to point out again that the Francophone Unitarians of Burundi and the Congo (Brazzaville) are […]
