UU Lent 2022 – Day 1 – Reflection

I found this reflection by Rev. Lora Brandis to be especially meaningful today. She reminds us all that we are Connected by Mortality.

“Fireflies” by Owl City offers a reflection of thoughts on a busy life and learning to be a part of something bigger.
“A heartwarming family film sharing themes of love, acceptance, and having a positive self-image.” Sometimes we need to be reminded that good reflections are possible and how we view ourselves can change our spirit.

Offering and Response   (Unison)

For the gifts which we have received—and the gifts which we, ourselves, are—may we be truly grateful.
