The Marmen Quartet shines\, opens up the work and shows what great music can do: intellectually stimulate and\, above all\, to be moving.” Süddeutsche Zeitung

SUMMARY:Sunday Service: Fear of Vulnerability
DESCRIPTION:The fear of being truly seen—of showing up in our full\, imperfect humanity—can leave us feeling exposed and isolated. Vulnerability often stirs deep fears of rejection\, judgment\, or inadequacy\, yet it also holds the key to genuine connection and healing. This sermon explores the tension between fear and the sacred power of being known. How can we confront the fear of vulnerability to foster deeper relationships and stronger communities grounded in presence\, liberation\, and transformation?\n-Led by Eli Poore \n“A deep sense of love and belonging is an irreducible need of all people. Only by embracing vulnerability can we build the connections that make us whole.”\n— bell hooks \nMonthly Theme: Fear \nAttend in person or watch live or recorded on our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@roguevalleyunitarianuniver8871
