What is it that we can trust when we seem to experience betrayal around every corner? Remembering the value of trust, even with life the way it is, is a gift that changes everything. Join Rev. Dana, Debbie Gentry as Worship Associate, and the NUUC Choir with Ryan and slp for this service about trust.

We are each hiking our own spiritual path-exciting, self-determined, and guided by the trust we place in our own inner voice’s compass heading. Best of all, we are learning to trust one another as spiritual beings, living the dream we collectively envision. Not only do we “not do it alone,” but experiencing this miraculous journey together makes life richer, more peaceful, and deeply inspiring. Worship Associates Tam Paquette and Doug Stewart will speak on building profound trust in our own compass, in one another’s, and in co-creating a vision for our future together.
