Our guest speaker, immigration attorney Marty Rosenbluth, describes himself as “just a simple country lawyer fighting for justice in the trenches and baking bread and cookies.”

Sunday services begin at 11 a.m., but join us early for coffee and conversation. Visitors and guests are always welcome at our progressive Fellowship. Services include a talk, often by a member of the Fellowship or a guest speaker. They also include music, meditation and optional opportunities to share your thoughts

Marty Rosenbluth has been “fighting for justice in the trenches” for decades. He grew up in Brooklyn, then attended Antioch College, then travelled to Israel to work as a human rights researcher. Then he earned a law degree from the University of North Carolina. He has worked for a number of human rights organizations, including Amnesty International. Now he lives and practices law in Lumpkin, GA, where he works for immigrants imprisoned at the Stewart Detention Center. He makes pretty good cookies, too.

If you come Sunday, be prepared for something different. Unitarian Universalism is an unusual religion. For example, we don’t share a creed. Our members are Christians, Jews, Buddhists and subscribers to earth-centered traditions. Members also include humanists, agnostics, atheists and people who resist labels. What we do share are commitments to respect the worth and dignity of all people, to care for the planet we share. And we support each other in our own free and responsible searches for truth and meaning.

There’s more, of course. See us Sunday for details. If you’ve been unsatisfied with other organized religions, you might find a home here. (Full disclosure, we’re not that organized.)
