SUMMARY:Service: Tomorrow Can Be Brighter than Today
DESCRIPTION:Unitarianism and Universalism were born out of a hopeful\, optimistic culture which foresaw an end to slavery and an expansion of voting rights. Today it’s not so clear what progress awaits. And yet a voice whispers: Tomorrow can be brighter than today. In our well ceremony we will choose what to let go of and what to bring into the new year.

SUMMARY:Service: Where Everybody Knows Your Name
DESCRIPTION:Some of us are lonely\, never having had (or no longer having) the experience of walking into a room where everybody knows your name and is delighted that you are there.

Stay after the service for a discussion of what makes you feel like you belong.
