Young People's Christian Union

The Young People's Christian Union, or YPCU, was a Universalist Youth organization founded before 1893. It was superseded by Liberal Religious Youth in 1953, as Unitarianism and Universalism came ever-closer together, but before the official merger in 1961.

Famous quotes containing the words young, people, christian and/or union:

    How separate and unearthly love is,
    Or women are, or what they do,
    Or in our young unreal wishes
    Seem to be: synthetic, new,
    And natureless in ecstasies.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    [F]rankly ... it was perfectly true that I had, for over a year, expressed the opinion that Indo-China should not go back to France but that it should be administered by an international trusteeship. France has had the country ... for nearly one hundred years, and the people are worse off than they were at the beginning.... France has milked it for one hundred years. The people of Indo-China are entitled to something better than that.
    Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)

    I wouldn’t take the Pope too seriously. He’s a Pole first, a pope second, and maybe a Christian third.
    Muriel Spark (b. 1918)

    The best philosophical attitude to adopt towards the world is a union of the sarcasm of gaiety with the indulgence of contempt.
    —Sébastien-Roch Nicolas De Chamfort (1741–1794)
