April 13, 2025: “A Practice of Daily, Reliable Joy” Christina Socorro Yovovich, Guest Preacher

Perhaps you’ve met Christina. Or perhaps you’ve noticed the woman knitting during services— that’s her! For Christina, knitting, spinning, and other fiber arts are a daily practice that bring a reliable joy. This joy is a powerful tool that helps her to stay grounded as she navigates mental health issues including PTSD, and all the challenges that living in the world brings. She will discuss the importance of having your own practice of daily, reliable joy. Christina is a member of First U and an essayist.
