April 6: UU Connections

April 13: Change is Closer Than You Think

Guest speaker Cesar Cardona will explore the power of change—both unwanted and unexpected. Raised between two homes, two belief systems, and two contrasting identities, Cesar’s childhood was marked by instability. Yet through these experiences, he discovered something lasting: the unexpected wisdom in surrendering to change. His journey eventually led him to Buddhism—not in moments of stillness, but in moments of deep inner conflict.
In this talk, Cesar shares how the best changes in life often come from places we least expect, and how embracing discomfort can lead to profound clarity, compassion, and growth.

Join us Easter Sunday with flowers, celebrating spring, rebirth and diversity. Flowers in their different shapes, colors and scents are enhanced when brought together in a bouquet. Please bring a few of your favorite flowers to share with each other and create new bouquets of beauty in your own expression of diversity. Come with a bouquet representing “me” and leave with one representing “us”! Presented by Mary Madill, lay leader.
