“We the People…”
Rev. Jeremiah Kalendae, preaching
Alison Kendall, Worship Associate
ONE SERVICE AT 10:00 am
The democratic principles of our society have been distorted, threatened, and ignored over the centuries. Our religious ancestors played a critical role in establishing democracy in the United States, and our fifth Unitarian Universalist Principle affirms: “The right of conscience and the use of the democratic process within our congregations and in society at large.” Join us this Sunday as we explore the state of our democratic republic and what these times are demanding of us.

ONE SERVICE AT 10:00 am Daylight Savings begins today.
As you look forward to the Vernal Equinox, 
the Coming of Spring, and the presence of more light in the world, look around yourself and notice. What is dancing in the shadows? What is in the shadows that you might shine more light on? Come worship with us as we consider what aspects of ourselves we turn to the light and what remains in the shadows.

She works with non-profits and faith-based organizations around the country helping them address issues of leadership, communication, and cultural competence.
