“The Fifth Spirit and the Making of a Future We Cannot See”
Rev. William Levwood, Unitarian Universalist Church of Tallahassee
We live in a time in which a shocking amount of lies and deceit fill the airwaves. It's equally as shocking to come to terms with how normal this is in the United States of America, how so much of our history has been distorted to fit a grand national narrative built largely on lies. The movie Frozen II gives us an opportunity to reveal the truth about our past and, in doing so, to participate in the making of a future we cannot see.
Our service this week is created in collaboration and presented by minister Rev. William Levwood, DRE Helen Rivers Cassara, and Music Director Angel de Armendi of the Unitarian Universalist Church of Tallahassee with special guest musician Li Kynvi
Our service video will be available at 10:00 am at eliotchapel.org and will remain here all week. You can also find it directly on Eliot Chapel's YouTube channel.

Every Sunday, Eliot Chapel shares half of the offertory with an organization in the community whose work reflects our shared values. This is one way that we care for our community and our neighbors. We are very pleased that June's recipient is the Migrant and Immigrant Community Action Project (MICA Project). MICA is a community organization committed to working with low-income immigrants to overcome barriers to justice.
