March 2: What Does It Mean to Make A Promise?

sermons | 9:00am & 11:00am

Sunday Worship at First U Two services: 9 and 11 a.m., livestreaming at 11 March 2025: Presence and Care

A child dedication is a promise—a commitment to nurture, to witness, to hold space for who a child is becoming. What does it take to make a promise like that? What does it take to keep it?

How do we meet ourselves with honesty? How do we move beyond explanation into transformation? How do we invite people into justice in ways that open rather than close?

Music, ritual, and reflection will guide the way. Join us.
