Sunday, Oct 14, Hope That Spans the Tragic Gap, Rev. Erika Hewitt

As Unitarian Universalists, we’re brave enough to see the way things are: a world sometimes broken to pieces. We know that despite life’s goodness, life wounds us. We’re also bold and hopeful to know how things might be, if kindness and justice were to trump cruelty. In this sermon, Rev. Erika Hewitt explores this twenty-first century take on our Universalist roots.

Rev. Erika Hewitt is a recent transplant to Maine, having served UU congregations in California for the past decade. She now lives in Bath with her partner, a professional musician. The author of Story, Song and Spirit: Fun and Creative Worship Services for All Ages, Erika also offers mentoring and workshops to UU worship leaders across the country. Her recent passion, a forthcoming book from Skinner House, is a small group program for UU laypeople to write their own sermons through storytelling and theological reflection. She believes that each person has a profound Truth to share, and that we each live in service to that authentic voice.
