Guest speaker Stephen Johnson owns a unique piece of land on Flat Shoals Creek. It’s home to one of the few remaining habitats of the rare and spectacular spider lily. Stephen has protected this small but invaluable part of Georgia for years. For a few days in May, when the lilies bloom, he opens his land to the public. He’ll talk about that.

Sunday services begin at 11 a.m. but join us early for coffee and conversation. Visitors and guests are always welcome.

Stephen grew up in West Point, Ga., and taught high school science for 24 years. He’s also a member of several environmental organizations, and he was historic preservation chairman for West Point, Ga., for nine years.

Our services feature a speaker—either a member of the Fellowship or a guest. We usually focus on one or more of the Seven Principles of Unitarian Universalism, but our interests are wide-ranging. Services also include music, readings, meditation and a chance to share your own thoughts.

As Unitarian Universalists, we do not share a creed. We do have beliefs, as individuals, but our members subscribe to a range of religious, philosophical and ethical traditions. And some members resist labels. What ties us together are commitments to human rights and care for the planet. Our unofficial motto: “deeds before creeds.”
