Mind and Heart and Soul

"Education should no longer be mostly imparting of knowledge, but must take a new path, seeking the release of human potentialities."

Words of wisdom from Maria Montessori that describes seminary work well. (Thanks Lissa M.)

Here are a few photos of part of the library. I looked up and saw part of the frieze in the ceiling is an interesting parade of animals (living and extinct). I will ask its meaning but my guess is that Unitarianism is committed to keeping religion always tied to reason and knowledge. The dinosaurs make me think it is a nod to in particular to evolution.
