AUGUST
August 3: Those
Magnificent Fullers: Margaret and Her Nephew "Bucky"
Rev. Zimmerman noticed the intersection of theology and architecture at UUCT. In the 19th century, Margaret Fuller worked with Ralph Waldo Emerson and the Concord, Massachusetts circle to develop "Transcendentalism," a significant thread of Unitarianism. In the 20th century, her nephew Buckminster
Fuller was best known for developing the geodesic dome. Now in the 21st century, in our domes at UUCT, we experience the legacy of both!

think I was in heaven': Joss Whedon's Atheist Faith Sermon by David Lavery, a university professor in London. He is co-editor of Slayage: The Online International Journal of Buffy Studies and author or editor of 12 books on TV.
David Lavery, a university professor in London, is co-editor of Slayage: The Online International Journal of Buffy Studies and author or editor of 12 books on TV, including Fighting the Forces: What's at Stake in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Finding Battlestar Galactica and the upcoming Joss Whedon, Wonder
Boy. This will be part of the regular church service.

August 17: Theater as Worship
First, Rev. Zimmerman will speak on -- and demonstrate -- the nature of her work in progress towards a Doctor of Ministry degree at Meadville Lombard Theological School. Then she will invite the congregation to covenant with her on her project. Why the need for a covenant? During the coming year of Sunday
services, she will try various techniques to enliven our worship, and then later will invite our evaluation of these techniques. Our "covenant" on this day will demonstrate our agreement with this process.
