Memory and Meaning
Watch the Video (YouTube link) On Memorial Day weekend, our thoughts inevitably turn to the causes and consequences of war. When we think of those who have died in service to our country, is our responsibility simply to remember them? Or do we have a larger responsibility to give their deaths meaning? If a family member died in active military service, you're invited to wear a black armband in their memory. Special music by Barb Martin
Creative Courage
Watch the Video (YouTube link) When we tap into our creativity, we are not recreating the status quo. What is it about creating that gives us the courage to wander into the unknown? How might we apply this willingness and energy more broadly in our lives? Special music by the UU Singers
