• Multigenerational Sunday Service – “Stone Soup Service”

    Sunday Worship
    UUFCC - Sanctuary 780 Waupelani Drive, State College, PA, United States

    with Ashley Hamlin, DLRE. When it feels as though the world is crashing down and so many people are living in growing suffering, how can we bring gratitude into focus and feel like we can give generously from a place of fullness, not deprivation? This service relates a familiar and delightful story, introducing three strange travelers who coax an entire town into realizing the richness of coming together, sharing, and feeding each other. Please sign up to bring an ingredient for our Stone Soup which we will feast on after the service! https://bit.ly/StoneSoup2025
