10:30 a.m. worship: “Love is the Relish on the Hot Dog of Life,” a sermon by Rev. Henley. A light-hearted look at how love enriches our lives.
Let us all gather this Sunday at our church and recognize the tragedy at the UU church in Knoxville for the assault on human life, human dignity, and human rights that it is. We can pray together for healing, and, as a beloved community, celebrate the hope of a free religious faith that welcomes all.
We will have a special time of prayer in our worship service for reading, reflections, and music for healing and hope.
