Unitarian Universalist Fellowship Sunday Service

Speakers: The Rev. Tom Rosiello, Minister of UUFSMA

By Kate Greenaway, UUFSMA member

Judaism, Christianity, and Islam all claim Abraham as a religious ancestor. You could say they are part of one big, complicated religious family. But as in any family, the family story is told differently depending on who is telling it.

One story shared across all three of these faiths is that of Abraham’s tent, open on all sides to welcome strangers from every direction. One day, three mysterious guests approach the tent. Even in his advanced years, Abraham greeted them warmly and offered them the very best hospitality.

So was Abraham really a man of dogmatic faith or was he someone who kept asking difficult questions? This Sunday, Rev. Tom will explore what Abraham’s story teaches us in a time of “dangerous certainty.” Can radical hospitality foster greater understanding, deeper interfaith connection, and perhaps even a path toward peace?

As Rev. Rosiello says, “Understanding where Judaism, Islam, and Christianity intersect—and the common ground they share—has never been more important. That exploration begins with Abraham."

Unitarian Universalism is a liberal faith centered on shared values for living. Our UU Fellowship welcomes people of all ages, races, religions, sexual orientations, and gender identities. We gather not around a belief in divinity, but around community, love, compassion, social justice, reverence for nature, and the spirituality of music within the interconnected web of existence.

The UUFSMA Social Justice Foundation supports local nonprofits that provide health, educational, environmental, and other services. Learn more at https://www.uufsma.org/foundation.html . 

We meet at 10:30 a.m. at the Hotel Posada de la Aldea, Ancha de San Antonio 15, in San Miguel de Allende. Join us from anywhere on Sunday mornings, in person or on Zoom. Enjoy previous services at https://www.youtube.com/UUFSMA.
