Covenant of Right Relations comes to Allegheny Unitarian Universalist Church

At the direction of the congregation, volunteers over the past year have been developing our "Covenant of Right Relations" (CORR) to reflect the congregation's philosophy that guides the way we choose to relate and interact with one another. Currently in its draft form and on schedule to be voted on at the May 20, 2012, Annual Meeting, the CORR Team has made the draft available to review, explore, and make comment as together we create a living document to guide who we want to be and become as we create what Dr. King called Beloved Community. 

 





Small Group Ministry Winter-Spring 2012, "Evensong"

Evensong is an eight week Small Group Ministry series of gatherings by Barbara Hamilton-Holway, a UU minister.  Ten to twenty participants will explore their individual life journeys through sharing thoughts, experiences, doubts, and current beliefs.  We will meet on Sundays from 6:30 to 8:15 beginning January 8th. The reflections in Evensong are a great way to explore personal beliefs and get to know a group of people. Whether you are new to the church or a long time church member, Evensong sharing can deepen connections.  This early announcement is so you can mark your calendars.  You can register here, or if you have questions or wish to register off-line, leave a message for Gail at the church 412-322-4261.

Self-powered wheels take over church on Earth Day Sunday 2012 for the

“Blessing of the Bikes”

The rain waited to "come tumbling down" as we celebrated Earth Day Sunday throughout morning worship with songs and stories about the ways we can make a difference for healthier life and a healthier planet. Toward the end of worship, we celebrated a "biketism" to bless the bikes, bless the riders, bless the planet, and to have a lot of blessed fun. And we collected money to fund bike racks for the church! A great event. Thanks to all who made it possible!! 


Spaghetti Dinner & Talent Show!

Saturday, March 10, 6:30 PM, Founders Hall: We enjoyed an evening of friendship and family fun hosted by the Allegheny Stewardship committee! Marnie S. was our incomparable talent show host. Folks brought homemade cookies for the dessert. It was a raucous, sometimes irreverent, sometimes poignant kick-off to our season of reflecting on how we can fulfill our mission. Pictures coming soon!


Won't You Be My Neighbor?
Thanks for helping the neighborhood raise over $1500 for the two neighbor families, including The Mayor of Monterey, who lost their homes to fire the week before Christmas.

Green Sanctuary!

The Spirit of Generosity - As an expression of our commitment, we donate half of the weekly offering to a partner chosen by the Social Justice Council. The spring quarter Share-the-Plate Justice Partner is the North Side Common Ministry Food Pantry, the largest food pantry in Pittsburgh. As our 2002 "Spirit Communion" states, "We remember these words: When I was hungry, you gave me food." 

The Spirit of Generosity. Catch it at Allegheny! 


Our Vision: "We will strive toward focusing on what we have in common, while appreciating the different ways to fulfill our mission. We will honor our history and principles while daring to affect responsible change. We will become more inclusive and accessible. We will care for each other and the earth. We will embrace the synergy between nourishing the spirit and performing our justice work as an urban congregation." We hope you'll join us in realizing our vision together!
