Interdependence Days
Unitarian Universalist Community of the Mountains
April 7, 2024
Rev. Kevin Tarsa
Beth Karow & Carol Nimick, Worship Associates
For several months, Rev. Kevin put out a call for people interested in planning a service together focused on the theme of interdependence. Seemed natural enough. However, there were no takers. Hmmmm… Rooted in the aspects of Citizenship lifted up earlier in the year, we’ll figure out this service together, beginning with a one-day instant choir which will rehearse before the service.
Song for Gathering Gathered Here #389 by Philip A. Porter, UUCM Instant Choir – and all!
