Pullman Memorial Universalist Church

Pullman Memorial Universalist Church Unitarian Universalist congregation of religious liberals in Orleans County and vicinity

Pullman Memorial Universalist Church has a rich and lengthy history, having been founded over 100 years ago, in 1891. Today’s congregation represents a diverse cross section of western New York state’s population. Current members include life-long UUs as well as recent “converts,” politically leaning liberals and conservatives, straights and g**s, older and younger ages. Because PMUC is a non-cree

dal church, members may hold a variety of faith beliefs, ranging from Christianity to nature-centered to agnosticism and atheism. At PMUC we have found that celebrating our differences makes us stronger and happier than allowing them to divide us. We take close to heart the words of James Vila Blake…

Love is the spirit of this church,
and service is its law. This is our great covenant:
To dwell together in peace,
to seek the truth in love,
and to help one another.

These days understandably cause fear and distress for so many beloveds. Fear for individual safety and wellbeing, and for the safety of our families and communities runs deep for many right now.

Please know that as Unitarian Universalists, we will not forsake you. The deep theological roots of our faith, going back to transcendentalists in early U.S. history and inspired by nonviolent resistance around the world, call us to resist unjust laws and refuse to cooperate with oppression. The very symbol of our faith – the flaming chalice – originated as an offering of hope and refuge to all who seek to live freely. We will continue to show up for our communities, demand justice of our leaders, and work together to protect the basic human rights that each one of us deserves.

Ours is a faith of courage, of resilience, and of moral witness. The time to protect our communities and our democracy is now. Holding fast to one another, we will meet this moment courageously, together.

Have you been to the church recently and felt anxiety about coming in? Have you visited in the winter and felt like you need those shoes with the spikes in them that mountain climbers wear? Have you ever stepped on the ramp and frantically done math and/or felt self-conscious about your weight?
Well, have no fear anymore— the storied deck replacement has begun! By this time tomorrow, should the UU gods of reason and compassion smile upon us, we will have a new entrance to the church! Big thanks to members Nick and Dylan for their hard work!!

Holiness does not belong only to sanctuaries or polished places.

It can be found in alleyways and bus stops, in worn hands and weary voices, and in small acts of kindness between strangers. This chalice lighting by Craig Rowland invites us to notice the sacred in the places—and people—we may have been taught to overlook.

May we remember that dignity, care, and belonging can make holy ground anywhere, and may we learn to recognize divinity in the complicated, imperfect places where life unfolds.

The Unitarian Universalist Association is a sponsor of the March 28 No Kings National Day of Nonviolent Action. Find or host an event in your community: https://www.nokings.org/?SQF_SOURCE=uua

History is clear: people-led movements — not force, not one politician — are how we end attacks on our rights and attempts at authoritarianism. We, the people, will save each other. When communities stand together in nonviolent action, fear loses its power.

Ahead of No Kings March 28, join one of their upcoming trainings: Making a Safety Plan, Organizing for No Kings & Beyond, Safety & Deescalation 201, Protest Rights & Safety Practices, and more. Check the Trainings tab at https://www.nokings.org/?SQF_SOURCE=uua.
