This Sunday, June 26:
Sunday Service in the Sanctuary and on YouTube
at 10:45 am 
Service by Endera Stevens, Yolanda Stevens and Mary Lou Keller
Yolanda, Endera and Mary Lou will celebrate the beautiful things that make our hearts sing with a unique guided meditation, an enthusiastic interpretation of the children’s book Something Beautiful, inspiring music and stories. Bring something you consider beautiful to share on a table in the sanctuary, and if time allows we will hear people’s stories during or after the service. This is an intergenerational service and will be an experience not to be missed.
Endera is co-owner of the Northend Agent's, the oldest and largest African American newspaper in Connecticut formerly published by her mother, Yolanda. She also has a spiritual business called The Gem & Eye where she does tarot readings, reiki, and sound healing. Her passions include art, community, family, and nature.
Mary Lou is a long term UU and serves on the Worship and Religious Education committees as well as being Vice-President of our Board of Trustees. She shares Yolanda and Endera’s enthusiasm for our diverse UU faith and the potential for manifesting even more beauty in the world.
