HAVE you or your family ever had connections with the Unitarian movement? Did you attend a Unitarian chapel as a child or for a special service?

If so, you are warmly invited to a special service at Nazareth Unitarian Chapel, Knight Hill, Padiham, tomorrow.

It will be a celebration of 'Unitarian Roots' and anyone with any past connection with the Unitarian Chapel in Padiham, or any other in the area which has since, closed is invited to renew the link and to explore their roots. The service begins at 10.30.

As minister of the chapel, I know this area was, and still is to some degree, something of a stronghold for the Unitarian movement which encourages people to work out their own faith position through the use of reason and conscience.

So many people in this region have Unitarian roots through christenings, marriages, or funerals or past attendance at a Unitarian Sunday School.

ANDREW ROWLEY (Rev), Arbory Drive, Padiham.
