“Bearing Witness” featuring a homily written by Heide (Cottam) Gustafson; delivered by Worship Associate, Ostara Hollyoak
As we draw to a close our February theme of “Justice and Equity,” we’ll focus this Sunday on the importance of bearing witness to injustice and suffering in our history and in the world around us.
Heide (Cottam) Gustafson is a member of the Unitarian Universalist Church of Ogden, Utah, and has held many leadership positions in her congregation. Among her achievements as a Unitarian Universalist, in 2018, the UUA’s Mountain Desert District honored her with its “Walk the Talk” Award, which is bestowed on a Unitarian Universalist lay person for living a life that exemplifies Unitarian Universalist principles.
In the piece we’ll hear on Sunday, Ms. Gustafson challenges us to courageously face the wrongs of our past and to resist the urge to comfortably exercise “empathy” from a distance.
