Where Do We Come From?
The Reverend Janet C. Bush
What have you inherited from your family or families of origin and your culture or cultures? How have they shaped you, for good and not-so-good?
Following a brief social hour, we’ll hold an important congregational meeting to consider funding the proposal to replace our existing furnaces with heat pumps. All are welcome, and members will vote.

“The Sin of Certainty, the Blessing of Hope”
The Reverend Jan Carlsson-Bull.
Unitarian Universalists tend to have an allergy to the term “sin,” but consider that it refers to ways in which we humans oppress one another, ourselves, and this earth. Rev. Jan will lead us in a consideration of the dynamics of sin and hope that weave through each of us and significantly shape these “interesting times” we inhabit.
Rev. Dr. Jan Carlsson-Bull is a UU minister who served several congregations in New England and New York before retiring in 2019. She also held leadership positions in professional, denominational, and community associations, with a focus on racial and immigrant justice and trauma response. She earned a B.A. in philosophy from the University of Colorado; an M.Div. from Union Theological Seminary; and a Ph.D. in Developmental Psychology from Yeshiva University. Jan lives in Middletown, CT with her husband Dr. Daniel Bull and their beloved mutt, Pablo. Their blended family includes three daughters and three adorable grandkids.
