“The Holy Work of Independence” 

With Alyssa Halliday as Worship Leader

In their sermon ‘The Holy Work of Independence’ Rev. Justin Almeida will explore the intersection of our national holiday of 4th of July with our Unitarian Universalist mission of being a people with minds that think, hearts that love, and hands that are ready to serve.
