Baseball, theology and justice among July 24 Unitarian service topics

KELSEYVILLE, Calif. – “Baseball, Theology, and Justice: Life Lessons From Both Sides of the Foul Line,” is the title of the service at the Unitarian Universalist Community of Lake County on Sunday, July 24.


The service begins at 10 a.m. at the Kelseyville Senior Center, 5245 Third St.


Guests are welcome, and may wear their favorite baseball outfit if desired.


The Rev. Ben Meyers, with Tom McAninley, have prepared a service which will look at baseball and religion with a light-hearted touch.


Herbert Hoover once said: “After religion, that which has furnished a greater impact on American life than any other institution is baseball.”


The Frenchman Jacques Barzun offered this insight into people’s passion for the game: “Whoever wants to know the heart and mind of America had better learn baseball.”


To those who may not be fans of baseball, this may sound like hyperbole. However, both skeptic and true believer alike are invited to join the Unitarian Universalist Community of Lake County to experience this summer service which will look at the deep and abiding lessons gleaned from the “great American past time.”
