Sunday Service:
Letting Desire Lead
6/4/23 at 10:30am
This will be a hybrid service, with the in-person portion being held in the sanctuary of First Universalist, and the virtual portion being held over Zoom.
Our desires can take us to some pretty extraordinary places if we make time to listen to them. Where have your desires led you? Let's explore how to listen to our desires and how they can better lead our lives.
Speaker: Rev. Lane-Mairead Campbell
Masking in the First Universalist church building is now optional, please respect distancing requests by fellow attendees. A mask-required section of the sanctuary is designated for those preferring to stay masked.
