Spiders! shadows! Haunted cathedrals!  We’ll consider fear, our future, and what might be required in moving Unitarian Universalism past a “not-that” faith identity.  With Rev. Jordinn Nelson Long.

Welcome back to a brand new church year!  The sermon topic for this Sunday is “The All of It”.

(Bring water if you feel so moved; if not, we will bless plenty of extra here at the church.)  
Can Unitarian Universalism, and this humble ritual of homecoming, go wide enough to welcome all, and at the same time deep enough to matter?  Spoiler alert: YES.  Join us. Think with us.  Rejoice with us. Cry with us.  Welcome home.
