Harvesting the Power of “We”. Rev. Dr. Sandra Fees. Spiritual community is a place to show up, belong, lament, renew commitments, keep hope alive, celebrate, and make meaning of our lives amid uncertainty and tumult. This morning we’ll strive to “harvest the power” of our UU community at this moment in our nation and the world following the shooting of Jacob Blake and the protests in Kenosha and amid the ongoing pandemic and upcoming national election.
