Imag(e)ining the Divine
Marcus Liefert
Leanne Macdonnell – Piano Soloist
Pat Mielke, Accompanist
There is a long history of controversy and strife in almost every religious tradition surrounding images of the divine. What is the role of the image and of the imagination in experiencing the holy? How has this controversy shown up in our own faith, and how might we use images and art to express and experience the divine more fully?

How can the Unitarian Universalist Church in Livermore live its faith boldly and unapologetically? As we begin the journey of strategic planning, Rev. Lucas will discuss the need to boldly plan for our future. Our new board members and strategic planning committee members will be recognized.
