Guest Speaker Rev. Frank Dunn
Service Leader: 
Steven Toporoff
This week, we welcome the Rev. Frank Dunn. He and his husband, Joseph Casazza, are neighbors, living in Cathedral City. Rev. Dunn will focus on a few of the many lessons he has learned over his half-century career as an Episcopal priest, and from his involvement in all aspects of congregational life. Says Rev. Dunn: “I couldn’t possibly unpack more than a slice or two of what I’ve learned, but there’s a handful of things I’ve learned that might be useful to others in assessing what they have gleaned from the practice of Christianity. No one enters our lives without having something to teach us.

Worship Leader: Rev. Ian W. Riddell

Some of the super-heroes we see on the big and small screen recently have been around for a long time—Superman turned 85 this year! Their fictional lives and experiences might offer us opportunities to reflect on our own growth and development.

Worship Leader: Reverend James I. Ford
Worship Associate: Bryna Blum
UU minister and Zen teacher James Ford will explore the nature of the spiritual life as an arc from our first noticing the world through the quest for meaning and depth. He likes stories and we may find ourselves invited into one.

Drawing from Heritage and Tradition is a beautifully vast invitation for this August. Each of us can go deep and far with that prompt. Currently, I am occupied by our national news. I hope to draw forth some useful insights as we live these times. I look forward to being in your pulpit and sharing the morning with you.
