Braving Space--Congregational Leadership Retreat
with UUA Staff Facilitators Connie Goodbread & Kathy McGowan

How do we identify our deepest values?  How do we recognize the things in us that get in the way of our living out those values?  How do we amplify our deepest values in the world? How do we know what the value is that we need to focus in on to make ourselves and the world a better place?  Are we afraid?
