This morning, George Grimm-Howell joined us to continue our May theme of Creativity with reflections on women's role in creating our world and creating better futures. Drawing on the work of Serinity Young, he invited us to "celebrate the indomitable feminine spirit that wants to escape earthly bonds of oppression and soar to her fullest potential" across many times and places.
For those who would also like to keep up with our neighbors at the UU Church of Columbia, their service message from this morning is available to view online:
