We will be viewing the live stream of the worship service from UUA General Assembly, being held in Baltimore MD. It is the largest gathering of UUs in worship. The sermon will be given by Rev. Dr. Nicole Kirk, who has preached at Countryside and did her ministerial internship here. Note: this service will last 90 minutes.

She joined the Meadville Lombard faculty in 2012 after serving eight years in the parish and earning her Ph.D. at Princeton Theological Seminary. Her research interests include religion, business, mobility, and material culture in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Dr. Kirk’s publications include Wanamaker’s Temple: The Business of Religion in an Iconic Department Store (New York University Press, 2018, 2023) and chapters in several edited volumes.
