Words from Rev. Barnaby

From the Minister

Rev. Barnaby Feder, Minister

Dear Members and Friends of CVUUS,

It’s that time of year when our blessings and, for some of us, our sorrows may feel more near at hand. Through our ancient rituals of generosity, sharing, family and community during these shortest days of the year, we experience many facets of faith in life-giving Love and love-giving Life.

We also get asked to do more for others than any human can gracefully manage. In some ways, it’s true all year round. Read More about “From the Minister”…
