All Ages Service: The Gift of Presence Over Presents
UUCSJS Director of Religious Education, Jessica Dunn Safonof
Our consumerist culture wants us to believe that presents are the most important part of any holiday gathering but in reality it is our presence our loved ones actually value the most. Join us as we explore whether presence really is the most important thing and how to value this gift when even the Grinch brought the presents back!
Please bring a new, unwrapped toy with you to kick off our holiday toy drive for the Eastern Service Workers Association.
