A moving part of the Sunday service at UUCP is the inclusion of We Remember, a time to recognize those whose lives were lost the previous week, in service to our country. While Memorial Day is often linked to the beginning of summer vacation, or a weekend for bargains, the sacrifice our citizens make for the values we claim to uphold does not come as a bargain. On this Sunday we will remember and honor the true meaning of the holiday, which, as the story goes, began as an expression of gratitude to Union soldiers by newly freed slaves in Charleston, South Carolina.
