Sunday, August 30, First Congregational Society Unitarian Church, 10:15am with livestream on YouTube. Behold and Belong - Led by Rev. Jane Tuohy. From Emerson to Mary Oliver, naturalists, philosophers, theologians, and poets have written about experiencing moments of exhilaration when knowing in a felt way that we are one with all Being. Rev. Jane Tuohy will explore how, through focusing our intentions and attention, the world of nature makes available to us a door to access our unity and belonging with all of creation and Spirit. Rev. Jane continues the long tradition of an FRSUU minister preaching at First Congregational Society UU in Hampton Falls on the last Sunday of each August.
