11am, Sunday, January 30; Community Worship: Living with Intention: Our Scriptures

Rev. Linda invites us all to consider how we can be intentional about what comes into our hearts and minds, what difference this makes for us, and how we put our personal “Scriptures” into action in our lives. Several UUCvillers offer parts of their own “Scriptures.” This service will be all-online. (Due to Covid and cold weather, we are putting off plans for an all-church, multigenerational, in-person Sanctuary in Action.)
