“Back to School”
Julie Keefer, Director of Music Ministries

Sunday, September 3, 10 a.m., “Back to School,” Julie Keefer, Director of Music Ministries: Whether you are heading into your first year of middle school or celebrating your 65th class reunion, this time of year marks a new beginning for so many. Director of Music Ministries, Julie Keefer, will take us back to our school days and remind us of the life supplies that will help us succeed in another year of life.

To celebrate the start of a new school year, Julie invites you to bring school supplies such as pencils, erasers, highlighters, colored pencils, notecards, loose leaf paper, and such. These supplies will be taken to Milford High School and Middle School to be distributed to teachers to give to students who are in need.

Julie recently received her Master of Divinity from Chicago Theological Seminary and is currently seeking ordination in the United Church of Christ.

Sharing Our Stories

Each of us at UUSD has a different story to tell about how we found a spiritual home here. A few of us are life-long UUs but most are not, having come from a variety of other religious backgrounds or from no particular place of faith. Whatever our journey, sharing the stories of the paths we took helps connect us to each other and to the shared journey we are now making.
