June 11, 2023: "Always There is Light, Somewhere" With The Rev. Dr. Nancy Jay Crumbine
As we celebrated the diversity of flowers last week in so many Unitarian Universalist congregations across the globe, we held up the creator of that ritual, the Rev. Dr. Norbert Capek, Unitarian minister, who died resisting the Nazis in his beloved Czechoslovakia. But so much remains to be said about this man, his accomplished wife, Maja, and the plight of their beloved and abandoned country. We will examine details of his life and thought, with particular reference to his resistance to fascism and the striking contrasts between the invasion of Czechoslovakia in 1939 and the invasion of Ukraine in 2022.
The service will also include Nancy’s favorite June poems!
