FUTURE OF UNITING CHURCH

The Uniting Church - forty years in retrospect

Rev. Warren Clarnette

True, numbers are not the whole story. The UCA's purpose is not to be bigger but to embody a message. Strangely, the celebratory guidelines said little on that subject. More honestly, the 40th birthday should have included a lamentation; a form of confession.  The church born on June 22, 1977 died the next day, because it assumed an identity unrelated to the promise of pre-union rhetoric.
