Do You Feel What I Feel?
The Skill of Deep Communication
Unitarian Universalist Community of the Mountains
June 23, 2024
Cheryl Morris & Carol Nimick, Worship Associates
Guest Speaker: Jeff Kane, MD
Deep, thoughtful conversations are a hallmark of the UU experience, and we have many opportunities at UUCM to engage in them. It is so fundamental to our denomination that Deep Listening has been selected as a Soul Matters theme for next year. But we don’t need to wait! Today’s speaker, Jeff Kane, is a deep communicator. He has honed this skill during his life as a physician, writer, yoga teacher, musician and husband/father/grandfather. And that’s not all! Jeff was the very first speaker for the fledgling UUCM and is returning now to help us celebrate our 30 years as a congregation. We welcome him and will listen deeply to what he has to say.
