This Wednesday: To Build an Ark
Unitarian Universalist Community of the Mountains
November 3, 2024
Rev. Kevin Tarsa
Gail Johnson Vaughan, Worship Associate
This Sunday marks the beginning of a month exploring living love through the practice of repair. We live in a time where there is so much to repair,
How do we even begin? Do we even have the energy to begin? And things are still breaking!
What needs repair or healing?
How does the lens through which we see what’s broken impact our hope or dismay
Do I have a role to play in repairing what I see as broken?
Can I help put the pieces back together, or am I one of the pieces?
Will what emerges be better because it was broken?
Come, let’s together begin this important exploration.
