Peace Sunday #7

Peace Sunday #7
Marla Loturco, leading

Henry Salt and Albert Schweitzer are the two peace leaders we will learn about this Sunday.  They are two of the leaders who advocated for “Valuing All Life” instead of just human life.  They are definitely proponents of our seventh principle: Respect for the Interdependent Web of All Existence of Which We Are a Part.

About Sunday’s Worship Leader:

Marla Loturco is a lay leader of our congregation who first visited us in April 2008.  Although she hadn’t set foot inside a church for forty years, she surprised herself by realizing this was a faith community that spoke to her heart.  Marla has not taken her membership lightly as she has served on the bylaw revision committee, is the church (and the Texoma Earth Day Festival) webmaster, the church database guru, and our representative to North Texas UU Congregations (NTUUC). She joins in church social events and has been elected to the Committee on Ministry and President of the Board of Trustees.  She is the recipient of NTUUC Marty Robinson Award for volunteerism as well as Red River Unitarian Universalists’ Bruce Cameron Distinguished Service Award. She currently is part of the AV team and a longtime member of the Worship Team where she creates meaningful and insightful worship experiences.

Beyond the church Marla is a Certified Laughter Leader, a Database Consultant, Quilter, creator of stained-glass art and devoted dulcimer player.
