Speaker: Paul Chavez

Looking Outward Together

As we begin this month focused on “Growing Together in Faith”, we reflect on the words of French writer Antoine de Saint-Exupéry: “Life has taught us that love does not consist of gazing at each other, but in looking outward together in the same direction.” Carol Flanagan and Paul Chavez, married for nearly three decades, will speak of the evolving place of faith in their personal history and the place faith inhabits in their lives today. First drawn together by a passion for art, a common history of childhood Catholicism, and a deep interest in Buddhism, they share their journey to make meaningful lives through creative action and experiences.

Work That is Real

Borrowing a line from a poem by Marge Piercy, members of CVUUF — Claudia Barton, Paul Chavez, Gordon Clint, Christina Houlberg — will speak of work they have found meaningful. Please join us as we celebrate Labor Day! Worship Associate: Thelma Williams
