This week at BBUUC….

 

Feb. 2: Rev. Harry Parrott presents “America’s Religious Experiment”

America’s greatest gift to the world was the audacious decision to break the centuries-old tradition of territorial religion.  How did this bold decision come about?  Can this experiment endure in face of continual opposition?

 Presented by: Rev. Harry Parrott ● Led by: Kris kines ● Accompanied by: Eileen Morrison

About our speaker: Rev Harry Parrott is an ordained minister in the American Baptist Churches USA, head quartered in Valley Forge, PA.   Before his retirement he served congregations in Cleveland, Ohio; Buffalo N.Y.; Edinburgh, Scotland; The Hague, The Netherlands; and St Petersburg, Florida.  He holds degrees from Oberlin College, Yale Divinity School (M.
