My husband and I are going to move to Ashland, Oregon. It has been my privilege to administer the UUCLC Lending Library. I will treasure the experience (my first real “librarian” job and an opportunity to put my studies into direct practice).

“Christian Voices in Unitarian Universalism,” edited by Kathleen Rolenz is the UUCLC Lending Library Book of the Month for July 2012.

Fifteen personal stories from laity and clergy alike show what it means to be a Unitarian Universalist Christian today.These men and women arrive at their faith by many paths -- influenced by the Bible, Jesus Christ Superstar and even the Bernstein Mass.

The editor, Kathleen Rolenz, is parish co-minister of West Shore UU Church with her husband, Wayne Arnason. The foreword is written by Carl Scovel.

This is one of many books available in our UUCLC Lending Library. Look for the chalice sticker on the spines of books that deal particularly with Unitarian Universalism.
