A Joint Offering with Our 3 Local UU Churches
Living Your Faith (formerly known as Building [and Living!] Your Own Theology) is an intensive and interactive 12-session program in which participants define/discuss their faith and its impact on their lives, taking a very deliberate look at who they are, what they believe, and who they, individually and collectively, can become.
Program participants will be drawn from the three UU congregations in our area: The Universalist Church of West Hartford, the Unitarian Society of Hartford, and UUS:E. The group will be limited in size (like a Small Group) and meeting locations will rotate among the participating congregations.
Sessions will be held twice a month, September – March on Tuesdays, from 7:30 – 9:00 PM. If you would like to participate, please contact the facilitator, USH member Tom Gervais, at 860-558-3000 or [email protected].
UUS:E participants, please sign up as you would for a UUS:E program, by contacting Annie at [email protected] or 860-646-5151.
