2015 has not gotten off to the promising start we'd hoped it would have. Just weeks after we celebrated the end of 2014 the geopolitical world was again thrown into turmoil as a result of brutal killings in Paris.

The events place our crucial freedoms in peril, forcing us to face a dark, frightening world. While it can be difficult to overlook the fear that greets us each morning, it is important to recall that every new day also brings the promise of a better world. 

While the storms ahead look daunting, we would invite all of you to join us as we forge forward and speak our truths to power as loudly and as proudly as we can. 

Peace and Love,

Your Brothers and Sisters at the Universal Life Church
