This particular new year certainly offers plenty of opportunity and hope for change! We waved good-bye to a challenging time but still have challenges ahead that will require strength, courage, calm, and action. How can we prepare and ground ourselves for what may come? Join Lora Powell-Haney, MDiv, in worship exploring the many ways people of faith around the world use prayer as a spiritual practice. What can prayer mean for a Unitarian Universalist?
