The Interconnected Web of Time
The Rev. Douglas McCusker
One of our shared Unitarian Universalist values is Interconnection. It urges us to
respect the interconnected web of all life of which we are a part. One of the ways that
we are interconnected is through our ancestors and future generations who will inherit
what we create. Human inheritance is part of the long-running story of culture and
character. Stories of love and fear; grace and malice come not only from our own
experiences, but from ancestral history within a tradition. Rev. Doug McCusker will
reflect on that aspect of the Spirit of Life which is comprised of the spirit of our
ancestors.
Rev. Douglas McCusker (he/him) is a retired Unitarian Universalist minister with
extensive experience in parish ministry, religious education, and social justice ministry.
He served two congregations as a parish minister: UU Congregation of Rockville, MD and the UU Fellowship of Fredericksburg, VA. He also led a Unitarian Universalist group at the Coffeewood Correctional Center in Virginia. He is on the Nature staff and Healthy
Relations team of the Southeast UU Summer Institute. Rev. Doug identifies as a
BIPOC, second-generation Colombian-American. He is a certified Mindfulness Outdoor
Guide who has led many groups in Shin-rin Yoku (Forest Bathing). Rev. Doug and his
spouse Marie, live in North Adams, MA.
