This past Sunday, Rev. Denise shared a powerful message on Reclaiming Our Sovereignty, weaving in the Celtic tale of the Selkies. In the story, a Selkie woman’s seal skin is taken from her, preventing her from returning to the sea—the place her soul longs to be. Though she builds a life on land, something within her continues to call her home.
Rev. Denise beautifully likened this to our own soul journeys. In the noise and distractions of the world, it can be easy to lose touch with that inner knowing—our sense of purpose, truth, and belonging. Through a guided meditation—a “date” with our soul—she invited us to reconnect with that deeper voice within, reminding us that the path back is always available.
Canda’s sharing of the song “I’m Not Lost, I’m Exploring” by Jana Stanfield echoed these themes so perfectly—offering a gentle reframe for those moments when we feel uncertain or untethered.
If you weren’t able to join us, I encourage you to watch the livestream on Facebook or our YouTube channel. It is truly worth experiencing.
We also took time to bless our dear community members, Tommy and Fran Rodan, as they continue their journey to Florida. We are so grateful for the many ways they have served UWSC—with joyful hearts and open spirits. While we will miss their regular presence, we look forward to welcoming them back whenever life brings them our way again.
The world has changed so quickly in recent years, and it’s understandable if we sometimes feel off balance or a bit lost. I know I am deeply grateful for the sanctuary of UWSC—a community of dear friends and chosen family that offers a safe harbor to reground, reconnect, and explore new ideas and perspectives.
We have so many wonderful speakers and events planned in the months ahead. Be sure to keep an eye on our social media, the flyers in the foyer, and this newsletter so you don’t miss a thing.
Namaste,
