 UUCPA Weekly Email Update for 09/12/2020:

This Week's Service


What Can We Trust?

How do we decide what to trust? The solidity of what we can reliably know has been chipped away: by propaganda, deceit by once-trusted leaders, postmodernism, and the multiplication of media sources. However, the question is not new, and wise answers have been proposed for thousands of years. We’ll look at some of the guidance we’ve been offered.

Worship Leader: Rev. Amy Zucker Morgenstern

Special music: Veronika Agranov-Dafoe

Unison Benediction

Go out into the world in peace,
Be of good courage,
Hold fast to what is good,
Return no one evil for evil,
Strengthen the faint-hearted,
Support the weak,
Help the suffering,
Rejoice in beauty,
Speak love with word and deed,
Honor all beings.
