The theme for May is Creativity. On Sunday, the Rev. Sally Hamlin, Consulting Minister asks, “What are the ways you express yourself through your faith, through your beliefs? How can we support one another’s journeys? How can this congregation of creative beloveds share the deep joy and the saving messages that Unitarian Universalism offers with others who need it?” All are invited to hear what Rev. Hamlin has to say in her sermon, “Creative Faith-making, Creative Faith-keeping.”
Following the service, join us for coffee, tea, and light refreshments.
