Cameron Norman, Soprano, Guest Musician

All of our Spirit in Practice services in this series – Personal Practices, Communal Practices, Spiritual Partnerships, Mind Practices, Body Practices, Soul Practices, and Life Practices – have brought us to the final reflection in this series, Justice Practices. Deepening, strengthening, and maturing our own spirituality help us be present to and capable of the transformative work to which our shared UU values call us. At the intersection of our spirituality and social engagement, we minister to “…a hurting world.”
