March 8, 2026: “Becoming Water: Courage, Radical Love and Ancestral Practices for Fire Times” Natty Averett, Pulpit Guest

How can we face our fears, do what’s right, be loving, be resilient and stay sane amidst internal and external turmoil? We’ll consider how to grow our courage, foster radical love within ourselves, and look to our ancestors to support our spiritual intuition and build our resilience.
