This week at uuworld.org: The other mother's day.

by Philocrites

Hillary Goodridge describes the day her daughter was born — and the nurses wouldn't recognize her as the other mother. John Buehrens reviews two books on the complexities of women's lives in Unitarian Boston in the nineteenth century. And Lee Robinson writes a poem about the spiritual discipline of feeding the birds.

In the news, Jane Greer reports that Unitarian Universalists rallied last weekend to stop the genocide in Darfur. She also writes about an interfaith coalition that recycled 300 tons of computer equipment in Michigan. Big news for church employees and lay leaders: Don Skinner reports that the UUA is launching a nation-wide health-care program for church employees. Meanwhile, Sonja Cohen reports in the news blog that one California UU mom is walking 569 miles to raise visibility about GLBT issues — and filing reports to a newspaper along the way. That's one way to walk the talk.
