Using Your Inside Voice
Rev. Leia Durland-Jones & Jason Woodson

Many of us, at one time or another in our lives, are asked to “use our inside voice.”
Often understood as a request to speak more softly, what might be benefits, strengths, or gifts from using and listening to our “inside voice.”
How might our inside voice help us in times of need? How might our inside voice give us courage? Come explore all of this and more!

Our UUCville Pick-Up Choir will sing on Sunday!
If you’d like to participate in the Pick-Up Choir, come to church at 10am Sunday morning for rehearsal in the sanctuary prior to worship.  All are welcome!
