Being a Religious Humanist in December
Dec 15 @ 10:00 am – 11:00 am

Sunday, December 15, 10 a.m., “Being a Religious Humanist in December,” Rev. Heather Rion Starr: Have you seen the big, often brightly-lit signs that pop up around this time of year that say, often in huge or cursive letters: B E L I E V E ! Over the years, I’ve had a variety of reactions to these signs. At this point I’ve been doing this ministry, life, and Unitarian Universalist thing long enough to have some thoughts and also to have learned some ways of just settling down and enjoying the season. Join me!

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.
