This Sunday's Service
January 25, 2026: Courage in Unexpected Places
Rev. Sarah Gettie McNeill
Deep wells of courage are all around us, all the time, if only we are able to attune our spirits to Source. It is easy to feel overwhelmed and overly responsible for our world and it is important to remember that we do not go this road alone. In this service, we will explore different understandings of Source and how we might draw on That Which is Greater Than Us for spiritual nourishment.
