My Journey with Unitarian Universalism, or YMIUU?

From Becca: As I begin my time as a Ministerial Intern with UUFF, I am excited to introduce myself to the congregation by sharing about my ongoing journey with Unitarian Universalism. What drew me to UU, what keeps me here, and what are my persistent questions . . . and how can my journey inspire you to fresh reflection on your own journey with Unitarian Universalism?
UUFF is thrilled to welcome Becca Bernard, a Starr King School for the Ministry student who will be completing congregational fieldwork with us this year as part of her journey toward UU ministry. After the service, join us for a special potluck to help us all get to know each other.
