Worship Service: During the winter holiday season, we are reminded of tradition and times of the past. We gather together and share stories. We tell stories of important memories, experiences, and life-lessons. This Sunday we will explore what it means to people of Awe who are shaped by the stories of our lives.”
Rev. Dr. Sandra Fees, Nov. 17, 2019 – The world is a noisy place. Our minds are noisy places. It’s hard to find quiet and stillness. But quiet—an inner stillness—is what allows us to give our attention to what matters most to us. It allows us to tap into our yearnings and inner truths . . . .
Rev. Dr. Sandra Fees, Dec. 1, 2019 – To be awestruck by nature is a gift. Experiences of awe lift us out of hopelessness, despair, and exhaustion. They inspire us and give us the courage to move forward. . . .
Rev. Dr. Sandra Fees, Dec. 8, 2019 – Have you ever been in the presence of something vast? Have you ever felt yourself and your own personal concerns become small in the midst of this vastness? If you have had these experiences, you have been opened to awe . . . .
To be a people of integrity is to be a people of wholeness. It is to live into the promises of our faith. And this is exactly what we Unitarian Universalists are striving to be and do. Yet too often our high ideals have been but elusive goals . . . .
