CFD Director’s Message 7.5.23

I hope you all are having a happy holiday week! The 4th of July is a light-hearted celebration for many and a reminder of all the work we have yet to do for others, to know greater freedom and justice. I hope that whatever was felt for you and whatever ways you did or did not celebrate, that you got a little pause and some time with people you love.

While we did not hold an in-person worship service at UUFM and children’s programming is on a summer pause, it is recognized that joys, sorrows, blessings, and concerns in our lives inevitably continue. While we go through a transition following Rev. Rita’s service to UUFM technically concluding at the end of June, and awaiting the news of what lies ahead, please know that I am here to receive what is in your heart. I am open to planning time together this summer, chatting via phone/video call, or simply communicating over email. Thank you for considering!
