Rev. Judy Zimmerman, with Dan Ball, celebrant. 

With Thanksgiving and winter holidays coming,  there’s pressure to be happy.  With all that’s going on in the world – from climate change to the economy to the state of democracy to our personal lives, why even bother with feigning happiness? Bah humbug!  This morning we’ll explore how to gravitate towards that magic middle between acting like a curmudgeon or a Pollyanna.  We’ll also survey some of the high points in MCUUF’s recent history that bring occasions for gratitude.
