Rick Spradlin: “What Will Become of Religion?”

We don’t have a minister. Instead, we rely on Fellowship members, like Rick Spradlin, to lead services, and we often have guest speakers from the community at large. Visitors are always welcome.

Rick is our lay leader. He’s a long-time student of comparative religion. His talks are centered on one of the Seven Principles of Unitarian Universalism. Key concepts include reason, tolerance and freedom and also respect, compassion and love. Our services also include readings, music, meditation and opportunities (always optional) to share your ideas and what’s going on in your life.

We meet in person Sundays at 11 a.m., with safety measures in place. (See below.) Service are in spacious Grace Fellowship Hall on our campus on the banks for the Heiferhorn Creek in north Columbus. (It’s at 8827 Heiferhorn Way.) We welcome people of all faith traditions and ethical systems that recognize and respect the dignity of all people.

If human rights and care for our planet are important to you, you’ll find friends here. Our motto: deeds before creeds.
