Some crumble in the face of difficulty, while others bounce back from adversity stronger. Often during life’s most difficult times we discover our most critical hidden strengths and forge our most important capabilities. Our UU pulpit guest visits us from Portland.
Freshly released from prison, people come home holding all that they own in a plastic bag, needing a place to live and to build a new life for themselves. Our pulpit guest has an inspiring personal story, vast gumption, a trunk full of hope and resources to uphold and sustain it. What she has to tell us will expand your heart.
