Courage
My last Sunday in the pulpit here at All Souls. I wish you courage in exploring how you can continue the good work in this community. Courage in going to those spots that need more attention. Shall we be brave together one more time?
Speaker: Minister Sarah Caine
Minister Sarah Caine is the Minister for Sioux Falls Unitarian Universalist Church.
Resistance
I’ve heard that suffering is caused by resistance to what is, and yet, resistance to oppression is a noble pursuit. Let’s not get caught up in language, but explore the spirit of liberation through acceptance and challenge!

Ingathering!
Community is always changing, join us today to celebrate our newest members of All Souls. Minister Sarah will explore what membership means for our UU faith. How do we show up? What do we expect from each other?
Wonder Across Traditions
We Unitarian Universalists are not alone in the wonder we feel at the universe. As far back as humans go, there are explanations for the natural world. Join Minister Sarah Caine for this small peek at different expressions of “Oh, Wow!”
