Breathing Newness Into Life
When we breathe in, we inspire new possibilities. When we breathe out, we aspire to new endeavors and commitments. When we breathe together, we conspire to deepen our partnerships toward building a better world. We are grateful to be in partnership with Lula B. Sherman United Methodist Church today in celebration and worship. This is part of a woman’s history month celebrating the Gospel According to Patti LaBelle. Rev. Eileen Wiviott and Rev. Aaron McLeod lead the service, with UCE Worship Associate, Annette Wallace. This will be a music-full service with the UCE Choir directed by Vickie Hellyer, Lula B. Sherman’s Music Ministry led by Jeffrey Hardy on keyboard, and instrumentalists Darryl Petty on piano, Charles Horne on drums, Vuyani Wakaba on bass guitar, and Chris Greene on saxophone.
This Sunday’s offering will be shared with UUANI (Unitarian Universalist Advocacy Network of Illinois). UUANI empowers Unitarian Universalists across Illinois to work for spiritually grounded, relationally accountable, and strategically effective action in solidarity with those most impacted by injustice. They provide leadership training, build congregational capacity, and organize statewide advocacy efforts in loving accountability with their partners. Together, they seek to bend the arc toward justice.
