Midsummer 2021 – The Pagan Umbrella

Did you miss it last week? You can catch the 2021 Midsummer Service.  Not all Unitarian Universalists believe the same things. Not all UU Pagans are the same kind of pagan. Celebrate the Summer Solstice and the return of the rainy season as we explore the different pagan paths that lie inside “The Pagan Umbrella.” 

You can view it on First Unitarian Facebook Video collection…
