Posted for Erika by Andrew:


I received this message/concern/suggestion from a member last week:

”I wish BUF or the committee could put a sentence or two each week in the order of service just so that the congregation has nudges to remind them this s an issue consistent with our principles.

I talked to someone at coffee hour who said  she didn't agree Black Lives Matter  because it supported violence against police. I said I thought it was predicated on non-violence. She didn't believe me.  I need to research and find some credible sources.

Also, until there is a basket of free Black Lives Matter pins at coffee hour, at the greeters' station, etc., I won't rest.  everyone needs easy access."  Discuss next week? Bring to group? Do we have a group e-mail list yet?

Thank you for all you do. I am grateful to be collaborating.
