What do we do with the word "evil." Many of us, who may have been called evil ourselves because of who we love or what we do or don't believe, probably want to shy away from the word altogether or claim that evil isn't real. But life in 2026 might be inviting us to name what evil actually is, and to consider what we might do about it. Rev. Tiffany offers her reflections on one of the big questions of life.
Here are some dates to keep in mind this summer involving staff absences and holidays.
Rev. Tiffany will be out June 15-July 13th.
Jess, our, DRE will be out June 14-June 20th and also July 6 - July 12th.
Our office manager will be out Tuesday June 30th and Thursday July 2 and our office will be closed that week.
No RE July 5th!

Damage to the kitchen ceiling from the broken water pipe.
During the recent cold weather we had frozen pipes at the church. A pipe in the kitchen ceiling broke and has caused damaged to the kitchen, Fred Ball Room, and hallway. Our insurance company has been contacted and the process for repairing the damage has started. We will let everyone know once more information is available.

Dear Holston Valley Unitarian Universalist Church members and friends. This Sunday we announced that Sarah White, who has been our Director of Religious Education for the last seven years, will be stepping down from the position effective January 15th to pursue an opportunity with ETSU.
As we are searching for our next long-term Director of Religious Education, we want to find an interim to keep our program going. This would be a paid position, 15 hours a week or less with flexible hours, and would last as long as it takes to find our next long-term Director of Religious Education. You will get training and support from our outgoing DRE, and our minister. Members and friends of HVUUC are encouraged to apply for this INTERIM position, with the understanding that the long-term position will be sought from outside the congregation.
Contact Rev. Tiffany at minister@hvuuc.org to send your resume and indicate interest.
