THOMAS STARR KING AT 200:

What Most Don't Know About Him

December 1, 2024
Led by Rev. John Buehrens

​

People often remember Starr King for his role in "keeping California in the Union." Yet his impact was far more than political: it was religious, cultural, educational, environmental, and philanthropic.

​

Rev. John Buehrens, in addition to serving as the 6th President of the UUA (1993-2001), has served the Starr King School for the Ministry as a trustee, faculty member, and friend. He retired in 2017 as Sr. Minister of the First Unitarian Universalist Society of San Francisco, which will host and co-sponsor this first of several Starr King School for the Ministry events aimed at celebrating TSK’s 200th by raising at least $200,000 for the school named for him.
