CTUCC ConferenceCast #71: Broadening Forgiveness - 3/22/2012
Channel: SNEUCC
Date: 22/03/2012

Evolutionary biologists have noted the survival value both of revenge -- don't mess with me! -- and of forgiveness, particularly, for the latter, within the family or local society. As Charlie Kuchbrod observes, we are also capable of forgiving strangers. How? "By seeing that all people are somehow close to us, matter to us, and have value to us." Fairfield County Regional Minister Sarah Verasco will be leaving us in May, and the Search Committee reports some of what they heard from their hours of listening last fall. We thank our churches for their 2012 giving pledges, and congratulate the congregations in Kent and Enfield, winners of a drawing for two Silver Lake camperships.
