Rev. Tony Johnson at the UUCP pulpit
Rev. Anthony Johnson selected
as our Consulting Minister
Rev. Johnson’s appointment follows years of service at the Unitarian Church of Essex County in Orange, NJ and most recently as interim minister at the UU Church of Plainfield, NJ.
Our
services reflect our varied theologies and philosophies, as
well as our support of each other, and of a free and creative
interchange and may vary greatly in content and style.
We are an intentionally diverse, anti-racist, multi-cultural spiritual community,
committed to being inclusive, welcoming and nurturing, while reaching
outward, beyond our faith family, to serve, and to seek racial and social
justice.
We celebrate and affirm our unity in diversity, and honor
each other’s unique spiritual journey.
Guided by the Unitarian Universalist principles, we seek to build a community of
the spirit, to gather into our membership caring and thoughtful people.
We seek to create for ourselves and our children an environment that affirms
our humane values, nurtures our spirituality, encourages the development
of conscience, and supports action for social justice. From that established
base, we seek to reach out into the community, to do what we can to help
those in need, to comfort the afflicted and to follow our convictions
in correcting injustice. We hope to expand understanding of the fact that
diversity in our society is a great constructive strength, and to demonstrate
that in action. |
