Building Belonging through Interdependence and Engagement 

 Inside the word belonging is longing. The human heart longs to be known and accepted in a community beyond oneself. At UCE we strive to usher one another into that sense of belonging, knowing it’s an ongoing aspiration we’ll never perfect. Amidst increased polarity and social atomization, how do we continue to engage and deepen our existing connections, while remaining open to all who come searching for a spiritual home? Rev. Eileen leads this service with Lynn Kendall as Worship Associate. Charles Anderson is our Hymn Leader with Gregory Shifrin on piano.

Today’s offering will be shared with Building Peaceful Bridges, whose mission is to foster multicultural relationships by assisting in the integration of newcomers into American society and educating communities on the challenges facing newcomer populations through their stories.
