**This Week at the UUFA**

Sunday Service – Sacrifice: Love Creating the Sacred

Sunday 11:00am – 12:00pm
Easter is time that Western culture reflects on the meaning and act of sacrifice, which literally means “making sacred”. Each and every individual is capable of love and can make small sacrifices to that which they call good, decent, and honorable. Our message on this day will be reflecting on the courage and act of the greater sacrifices and how we as Unitarian Universalists can venerate the acts of our predecessors and show that we are called to sacrifice for the progress of humanity.
service leader Pat Gordon
