Good News

What are the big questions on your mind and heart these days? In each segment, Rev. Gretchen Haley, our Senior Minister, and Rev. Sean Neil-Barron, our Associate Minister, have 12 minutes to answer as many questions from the congregation as they can. (Both parts together in this podcast.)

Rev. Elaine has only six minutes to answer as many questions as possible about herself and her ministry.  This is a great opportunity for congregants to learn more about our newest staff member.

Kelly Dignan, Spiritual Companion, continues our Good News of Unitarian Universalism series by asking the question “Why do bad things happen, and how are Unitarian Universalists comforted when they do?”   Visit https://www.kellydignan.com/ to learn more about Rev.
