Unitarian Universalists of Sterling

Why did you become a Unitarian Universalist?
I was raised in a Brethren church (protestant), but as a teenager, I had a lot of questions that were never fully answered.  I've always had a problem with any one religion claiming to have a corner on the truth.  It seems obvious to me that people from all over the world would have different approaches to answering life's biggest questions, and I feel like there is value to be found in many different religions.  Anyway, as it turns out, my roommate in college was a Unitarian Universalist.  We had many late night discussions about religion and the meaning of life, and I realized that I was basically a Unitarian already and didn't know it.  It wasn't until I had children of my own that I sought out a Unitarian church to attend.  I was delighted to find such an active and caring community at UUS.

Why did you become a member of Unitarian Universalists of Sterling?
I have attended since 2003, and became a member in 2007 when Rev. Anya comes on board as our minister.

Why did you become a member of the Board?  What do you hope to accomplish?
My background is in finance, so it seemed like a good fit for me.

What do you enjoy doing in your spare time?
I enjoy music, reading, running, hiking and spending time with my family.
