"Healing We Can Do For Each Other"
Sunday, November 9, 2008
The Rev. Melanie Morel-Ensminger

A reading often used in UU Memorial Services says: "Just to be together, to look in the faces of family and friends and to see there the common expression of hurt, takes away some of the loneliness of our feelings and draws our hearts together in the blessed healing that we can do for each other." Join us for this special service of mutual Healing, which will be followed by Mental Health Day activities for the whole family (see article elsewhere in this newsletter).

"What Are You Worth?"
