SUMMARY:Faith in Goodness: An Easter Service
DESCRIPTION:Faith in Goodness: An Easter Service\n\nWith Rev. Susan\, Annet
 te Boucher\, and Brian Shaw\n\nThe return of flowers in spring\, following
  the dormancy of winter\, is a common symbol of renewal and hope. Even in 
 an era of climate disruption\, it is easy to trust that spring will come a
 gain each year. But what if rebirth is not guaranteed? What if it seems im
 possible that spring as we know it will come again? Using the Easter story
 \, we will consider how\, even as we mourn what is lost\, we might find fa
 ith in goodness – whether human\, creative\, or divine.\n\nIn this servi
 ce\, we will also have the joy of welcoming new members to NVUU!\n\nHYBRID
