Some say they are not churchgoers because they find their religion in nature—in solitary reflection. Why, then, do we come here instead of sitting quietly at home with the paper or taking a walk in the woods? Certainly, for community, but perhaps also because there is power and growth and, yes, even transformation in so doing. We’ll explore how that can and does happen.

Dave Hudson

Dave Hudson and his wife Kate joined the UU Congregation of Marin two years ago, having moved from the lovely coastal town of Beaufort, South Carlina, to which they thought they had retired. But three sons in the Bay Area drew them west to Marin, where they are now both actively involved with this congregation and with the Marin Audubon Society, Pt. Reyes National Seashore, and the Novato Bayland restoration project. They have been UUs for more than forty years—in Geneva, Illinois, the Atlanta area, and Beaufort. It was in Roswell, Georgia in 2001 that Dave became involved in worship, diving into theology and UU history, going so far as taking an online course in theology at Starr King School for the Ministry. Their first minister in that congregation took him under his wing, tutoring him in the art of sermon writing. He has spoken at UU congregations throughout Georgia and South Carolina and here in the Bay Area. And he is grateful for the honor of speaking at his new home congregation.
