Pastor Corrine Haulotte will give a talk titled, "Remembering and Re-membering,” at the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Winona‘s Sunday Service on November 9 at 10 a.m. in our current theme, The Spirit of Activism. Dwayne Voegeli will coordinate. Haulotte says “I believe our faith not only informs and compels us to act, but grounds us for action; in other words, it can be ‘the why’ behind our activism. Hebrew Scriptures contain a refrain and charge to remember.” She recalls scripture, “The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself, for remember you were foreigners in Egypt.” Such remembering leads to re-membering in community and kinship. Perhaps the “Spirit of Activism” is remembering and re-membering, and then identity and community are essential for activism.
Corrine Haulotte is grateful to live in Winona, MN. The official word is that she has been an ordained pastor in the ELCA for 15 years, including 12 of those at the Lutheran Campus Center in Winona. She's gone to school for all of this, but the real word is that she still believes love is stronger than hate, life is stronger than death, and goodness is stronger than evil. She holds fast to these words from Bishop Desmond Tutu and is relieved that when her confidence in that waivers, she belongs to a community that will believe for her, and she is held by a faith that is pure grace.
This event is free and open to the public. The Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Winona meets at Wesley United Methodist Church, 114 W. Broadway St., at the west end of the building. Enter through the door under the arches. Parking is available in the city lots across the street, and the accessible entrance is on the back side of the church.
