March 3: Personal Transformations Rev. Drew Frantz Within each of us is the power to be introspective, to see the patterns in our life and make changes in order to be our best selves. This kind of transformation is a matter of peeling away the old self – the facade we have created in reaction to the world – and allowing our authentic self to emerge. Like the transition from caterpillar to butterfly, the changes we can effect in ourselves are as deep as our blood and bones. | Join Zoom Meeting Meeting ID: 402489218 One tap mobile +16468769923,,402489218# Phone - audio only +1 646 876 9923 |

March 31: The Women at the Tomb Jessica Jernigan Today is the holiest day in the Christian calendar. Although each of the four gospels offers a slightly different account of the passion and resurrection, they all tell us that women were the last of Jesus’s followers at the cross, the earliest to arrive at Jesus’s tomb, and the first witnesses of the risen Christ. What can we, as Unitarian Universalists, learn from this piece of the Easter story? | Join Zoom Meeting Meeting ID: 402489218 One tap mobile +16468769923,,402489218# Phone - audio only +1 646 876 9923 |
