When Dionne got her husband Wade to come to BRUU for the first time, by luck the minister spoke about what UUism is. Rev. Greg was our interim minister then, and he talked about the Seven Principles and the ability of people with different beliefs to form a single community. Before that, Wade thought that religion and church required pressing the “I believe” button, which is something he could not do.

For the first time, Wade found a religion and a religious community where he could fit. He joined the choir (you’ll see him in the adult choir video), and later got elected to the Board of Directors as Secretary. Now his whole family is involved in BRUU.
