June 2, 2024: "Bridging" UU Youth, The Ministers, and Alana Rodriguez

Some of the most important things we can do for our youth to support them into adulthood are to keep them connected to Unitarian Universalism, and to continue to minister to them as they become adults. Our Bridging Ceremony celebrates this important transition and reminds the congregation of our commitments to our youth. We will honor Yony Mostoller and Evan Sadek. We will also celebrate Founders Day!
