Our speaker this week is Rev. Carol McKinley, and her sermon title is “Hidden History”

No potluck this Sunday!

In his novel Requiem for a Nun, William Faulkner writes, “The past isn’t dead – it isn’t even past.” By becoming aware of how little-known events – like the Doctrine of Discovery – have shaped national policy and affected the treatment of non-European and non-Christian peoples, we better understand how we can develop deeper understanding, live with integrity, and build more just relationships between all people in our communities and the world.

The Reverend Carol McKinley is a community minister affiliated with the Olympia Unitarian Universalist Congregation, where she coordinates the justice programs within its Faith in Action Ministry.
