Be gentle with yourself | RELIGION NOTES


September 28, 2012 · Updated 3:47 PM 

People are used to the messages that remind us to “buck up, be responsible, be tough.” They may not be so familiar with the reminder to “be gentle with ourselves.”

Rev. Joanna Gabriel will explore the spiritual importance of this softer advice at 10 a.m. Sunday, Sept. 30 at Unity of Whidbey, 5671 Crawford Road, Langley. Musical inspiration will be provided by Dinah Stinson with support from Tadd CharetteNunn. Quin Serra will be the platform assistant. All are welcome.
