Advent Week 4: LOVE
"All You Need is Love"
11 am, Rev. Lari Goold
Guest Speaker
Sanctuary & Livestream
It’s no accident that the symbol for love is a heart. Love doesn’t come from the head! Imagine a world where everyone came from the heart first and then used our heads! John Lennon wrote about such a world when he asked us to imagine. Let’s talk about how we can bring that imagination into a real world.

A Prayer for Children:
Inner Peace
by Rev. Adriana Segovia
In prayer, we can help enliven their innate strength and wisdom as well as our own. As we center in peace, all fears and doubts dissipate. A Truth bigger than our fears reassures us that we are beings anchored in peace.
By spending time with children in affirmative prayer, you can encourage them to assert the power within them. This action supports them during times of distress.
