Recently, we received a response to Leaf's sermon, "The Cost of Indifference" from UUSC:
Dear Rev. Seligman,
I was moved by your recent blog on the cost of indifference – thank you. “What happens when we lose touch with the folks we wish to help? When their reality seems so distant from our own?” you wrote. It really is so important to remember that the people we are helping have character, personality, history, relationships – full lives.
I noticed your blog because recently I met a woman in Washington DC who attended First Parish Fitchburg years ago and still received news from your congregation. Your news had prompted her to renew her support of UUSC!
UUSC recently ran a “JustJourney” to Uganda and one of the participants – Rev. Sally Beth Shore of the UU Congregation of the Swannanoa Valley – wrote a blog post about her experiences in meeting people over there, addressing one of your points in your blog.
Sincerely,
Charles
