The Practice of Invitation: Transcendentalism. The Transcendentalist Club’s first official meeting was on September 19, 1836. What was it about Transcendentalism that made it so inviting to some Unitarians of that time? This Sunday, we will hear about some of the ideas and history behind this movement. Do you have any favorite quotes or readings from a Transcendentalist that has invited you into a new way of thinking? Submit it to Heather at heather@uuclakeland.org.
