In Memoriam:  Sam Henline

A Note from Reverend Aaron Norris:
​It is with deep sadness that I share with you the passing of our Music Director Sam Henline. We are all shocked and saddened by this event. Sam was an amazing musician, a gentle soul and a good friend to many in our community. 


In the coming days there will be many questions. At this point the details of Sam's death are few, but apparently Sam died in his home some time yesterday. We will share details as they become publicly known. 

Sam's life touched many in the wider community including a number of musician groups in Northern Colorado. We are in conversation to discuss what type of memorial event is appropriate to hold and when is the best time to hold the event. 

I expect that we all will be sensitive in the coming days and weeks. Let us be gentle with one another. Sam loved the Unitarian Universalist Church of Greeley and the people who attend. He was rightly proud of his work with our congregation.  He will be missed deeply.

In Shared Grief,
​Rev. Aaron

The 7 Principles that Guide Us

A “living tradition” of wisdom and spirituality, drawn from sources as diverse as science, poetry, scripture, and personal experience.

  1. 1st Principle: The inherent worth and dignity of every person;
  2. 2nd Principle: Justice, equity and compassion in human relations;
  3. 3rd Principle: Acceptance of one another and encouragement to spiritual growth in our congregations;
  4. 4th Principle: A free and responsible search for truth and meaning;
  5. 5th Principle: The right of conscience and the use of the democratic process within our congregations and in society at large;
  6. 6th Principle: The goal of world community with peace, liberty, and justice for all;
  7. 7th Principle: Respect for the interdependent web of all existence of which we are a part.

A Year of Living Generously

Picture
                              This year we challenge ourselves to a
                                        "Year of Living Generously". 
Each Sunday we give our entire plate to a non-profit organization.  During our Church Year thus far , we have supported several community agencies including:
  • The Weld County Humane Society
  • SPLASH - serving Northern Colorado LGBTQIA+ youth
  • SAVA - serving and advocating for victims of sexual assault
  • ​ Lutheran Family Service’s Refugee & Asylee Programs
  • The Weld County Food Bank
