Dear Ones,

As you read this, I am in the mountains of North Carolina at a UU retreat center with UU ministerial colleagues. I love the mountains (Little Scaly Mountain in particular is special), I love the drive up and back, and I always find a period of a few days away spent with colleagues to be some combination of nourishing, restful, and challenging.

Though I’m not taking time to write you much of a message (it’s last Thursday right now!), I am 92% certain that I will be thinking about the congregation as you read this. (Unless you’re reading after 10 pm–too late for me to think.) I will be looking forward to seeing you on Sunday. Who knows, maybe I’m learning something new right now (as you’re reading) that you’ll hear then...

Yours in faith and the need for periodic renewal,
Rev. Denise
