"
The Divided Self: Finding Peace in a Fractious Mind
"
|
|
|
|
Pulpit Guest: Philip Chard
Worship Leader: Eddee Daniel
The self is characterized by multiple “personas” that sometimes harbor competing agendas, attitudes and opinions. We will examine the origins and workings of the divided self, how to negotiate a psychological truce, and paths toward reconciliation, healing and, eventually, inner peace.
Beautiful Music today from the UUCW Adult Choir and Ruben Piirainen, Music Director.

Calling all hymnals home!
Now that there's only one Sunday service, we need to inventory the hymnals and determine whether additional copies need to be purchased. If you have a hymnal at home, please return it to the hymnal shelves as soon as possible.

at home, you can purchase
a copy online.
