Over the past year, a number of UUs in our congregation have taken part in UU Wellspring, a rigorous program of study, conversation, and spiritual practice designed for deep personal transformation and a strengthened UU identity. At this service, participants will share what they learned and experienced on their Wellspring journeys and why you might want to consider signing up for UU Wellspring yourself when it’s offered again later this year.
