Freedom, Reason, Hope, and Courage
Unitarian Universalist Community of the Mountains
July 2, 2023
Rev. Kevin Tarsa
As Unitarian Universalists, we are rooted in heritages of freedom, reason, hope, and courage. This July 4 weekend, when we need each of those heritages more than ever, we launch our summer series focused on Love in Action with Rev. Kevin’s current take on what it means to be Unitarian Universalist, as viewed through the lenses of his recent renewal leave inner journey.
