Saying Yes
from Sermons-First Unitarian Universalist Society of San Francisco · host First Unitarian Universalist Society of San Francisco
"Saying Yes" (June 13, 2021) Worship Service “Teach us all you can by saying yes,” Nancy Shaffer writes in a poem titled “Calling.” Rather than coming from some booming voice on high, the sort of calling that Shaffer describes is marked by the subtle work of learning to listen- and being willing to respond. Preaching for the last time as our ministerial intern (but not her last time in our pulpit) Meg McGuire reframes this notion of calling and reflects on what it might look like for this community going forward. Meg McGuire, Ministerial Intern Rev. Vanessa Rush Southern, Senior Minister Rev. Alyson Jacks, Associate Minister Richard Davis, Worship Associate Richard Davis-Lowell, Worship Associate Cal Ball, chalice lighter Luanne Schulte, Internship Committee Reiko Oda Lane, organist Dr. Mark Sumner, choir director UUSF Choir Bill Ganz, pianist Sarah Rose Cohen, lead Bill Klinglehoffer, lead Asher Davison, lead Ben Rudiak-Gould, lead Eric Shackelford, camera Shulee Ong, camera Jonathan Silk, audio, oos design, drums Joe Chapot, social media chat Thomas Brown, Sexton Amy Kelly, flowers Alex Darr, Les James, Tom Brookshire, Zoom Coffee Hour
