Nov. 4 Praying Out Loud
given by our minister,
Pam Gross
Do we or don’t we? Should we
or shouldn’t we? Silently or noisily? Never
or every day? With God or
without God? Why or why not? Let us consider
prayer in the lives of
Unitarian Universalists.
We will welcome our
newest members today.

Understanding
