Fierce Compassion

Practicing compassion is a lifelong challenge. It’s harder still while holding righteous anger at the injustices we witness and experience. Exploring the distinction between anger and hate and the root of compassion. Rev. Eileen will preach after
Rev. Susan and the Membership Team invite us to welcome our new members. The UCE Choir, directed by Vickie Hellyer our Music Director, and accompanied by Gregory Shifrin on piano provide music. Mary Dudek is our Worship Associate.
