Sermon
Ours is a covenantal faith, and what binds us together are the promises we make. Just as we periodically spend time looking at our personal lives making promises to ourselves, we should also look at our promises to each other and to the communities we are a part. Presented by Beth Casebolt, CRE, UUA Congregational Life Staff in the Central East Region.
