Knitting up the Frayed and Raveling and Broken Heart
Unitarian Universalist Community of the Mountains
March 30, 2025
Rev. Kevin Tarsa
Cheryl Morris, Worship Associates
In a review, Marilynne Robinson claimed both that “It is trust that knits up the world,” and also that trust “is a stuff peculiarly liable to fraying and raveling.” This is the often tender nature of the world and our relationships. We end our month with an invitation to hold this truth with care, and to live accordingly.
