In his poem, “A Ritual to Read to One Another,” William E. Stafford clarifies why humans must communicate with one another, and to do so well and clearly. Many of us are still struggling with grief and anxiety after both the election of 2016 and COVID 19. In a time of stress, how are we listening to and hearing one another? Please come to a service where we will get a chance to consider this and speak to others. We will also listen to the words of poet Andrea Gibson and learn what questions and thoughts they have to share for our journey.

Rev. Sharon Dittmar of the UUA’s Midwest Region is our guest sermonist.

Join us at 11 a. m. in person or online. The link for virtual attendance is https://tinyurl.com/StJohnsUU-Live. The online order of service will be updated before Sunday.
