FUUSD is welcoming Dr. Ysaye Barnwell to our campus on Saturday, January 14, and Sunday, January 15. She'll be leading a workshop on Saturday from 9 to 3 and then co-leading our Sunday service with Ian Riddell on the 15th. We hope you can join us for both!
Workshop: Building a Vocal Community®
The Power of Song in Community
Saturday, January 14, 2017 9am - 3pm
First Unitarian Universalist Church of San Diego

Join us for a gathering of singing, story, and history as Dr. Barnwell leads us in rhythms, chants, traditional songs from Africa, the Diaspora, and African American culture. Throughout the workshop, this music and the practice of singing it will be placed in the historical and social context of the communities from which it grew. You don’t have to be a trained singer to take part in this powerful workshop. Just bring your voice and your spirit.
$10 requested donation. Pre-registration requested, email ian@firstuusandiego.org.

PictureCarrie Newcomer at UUFSD.
What a wonderful concert! Carrie is such a treasure – loving, kind spirit with lovely voice and thoughtful lyrics. Included here are a few photos from the evening. You’ll notice rose petals on stage, and a pot of hot water & herbal teas (including ginger) on stage table. Unitarians can be a bit serious, so we especially appreciated her interactive sing-alongs “If Not Now” and “Place at the Table” … helps us to get out of our heads, more into our hearts! Here are a few comments that we have received so far …
