UUEstrie will be joining this special service from FUP of Derby Line. NOTE- This service starts at 10AM, not our usual 10:30 start time.
Do you feel that you belong to your family, your community, the institutions of your town or country? Where do you feel connected? Where do you feel alienated? How can we make our way in the world today? Gabriella Brand will tell stories of belonging and alienation.
One of the biggest obstacles for us to find inner peace is the shame that we carry. Join us on a journey and a discussion of shame…and how we can finally work to say goodbye to it in our lives and for all to become the beautiful and creative beings that we are destined to be.
