Unity of Whidbey focuses on joy
Joanna Gabriel will be delivering a talk entitled “Let Your Joy Lead the Way” at Unity on Sunday, March 29.
In a world that can feel like it is constricting, it is more important than ever to become familiar with what gives us joy. If something is joyful, it stretches and expands our experience, an important balance to the tightening of fear and doubt. Sunday’s service will look at the vital presence of joy in our lives and what important role it can play in life’s choices.
The service is at 10 a.m. at Bayview Community Hall.
Social Justice Sunday at UUCWI
In a “soap box” format, several members of the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Whidbey Island will speak briefly on social justice issues such as housing, peace activism, marriage equality and civil liberties at the Sunday service.
The service starts at 10 a.m. Singer/songwriter Karin Blaine will be the guest musician. All are welcome. Values-based children’s religious exploration classes and childcare will be provided.
UUCWI gathers at 20103 Highway 525, just north of Freeland. Check www.whidbey.com/uucwi for more information.
